Delain
Founded by former Within Temptation keyboardist Martijn Westerholt in the Netherlands in 2002, Delain became one of the most beloved acts in European symphonic metal over a fifteen-year run defined by the crystalline soprano of Charlotte Wessels and a gift for anthemic, accessibly melodic songwriting. Albums like We Are the Others (2012) and The Human Contradiction (2014) cemented their fanbase across multiple continents, before Wessels' departure in 2021 led to a significant lineup upheaval and the continuation of the band under Westerholt's sole direction.
