After quite some time of not knowing what will be the content of the Within Temptation RESIST box set, the Dutch rock band finally revealed the content of its limited edition box set.
Box set
Just like we’ve seen with the 2014-release “Hydra“, Within Temptation will also release a box set edition for their upcoming and seventh full length studio album “RESIST“. The album is set for release 14 December 2018 01 February 2019 via Vertigo Records Germany. Although, there are some mayor differences between the two sets.

RESIST
It took a long time to make a new album. RESIST is set for release 14 December 2018 01 February 2019 via Vertigo Records. It’s their first record in almost five years, their last studio album, “Hydra“, was released early 2014. Within Temptation singer Sharon den Adel explained in an earlier interview how she was unable to write new Within Temptation songs and she doubted to continue with the band. “RESIST” will be an album which takes the nowadays pop songs into a new level, with heavy guitars and strong lyrics.
Box set content
The content of the box set for the upcoming release was unclear for a long time. The band announced certain items, which did not match up with third party sellers. And suddenly, orders via third party sellers got canceled and buyers received an email from the place of purchase. The box set content was changed, the price dropped and people need to re-order their box set. Now we can gladly confirm which items the upcoming box set of Within Temptation will contain:
- The “RESIST” album on Double CD (digipak) including an instrumental CD
- Music cassette of “RESIST”
- “RESIST” T-shirt (sizes M, L and XL available)
- Two guitar picks
- Six poker cards
Unfortunately, the box set will not contain the vinyl record of the studio album, collectors will need to purchase the vinyl record separately. The box set will be a lot smaller compared to the “Hydra” release.
Pre-order
All items for “RESIST” are available for pre-order. Release is set for 14 December 2018 01 February 2019.
