Delain is a Dutch Symphonic Metal band founded by keyboardist Martijn Westerholt (brother of Robert Westerholt) in 2002, after leaving Within Temptation the year prior due to Pfeiffer's disease. The band released a demo, Amenity, but Martijn abandoned the project afterwards.Three years later, joining forces with singer Charlotte Wessels and signing a contract with Roadrunner Records, Martijn restarted Delain, envisioning it as a musical project featuring various guest musicians from symphonic metal bigwigs Epica, Within Temptation, Nightwish, and others. This vision came to bear fruit as Lucidity, released in 2006 despite delays. The live band was then formed as Delain accepted offers to tour around the Netherlands and Europe, and has undergone frequent lineup changes since.On February 15, 2021, Martijin Westerholt issued a statement via the band's Facebook page, that the other members had decided to leave the group. Westerholt wrote "For the last year or so, the collaboration within the band ceased to work as well as it once had. Some of us were no longer happy with the current roles in the band. We all tried very hard to find a solution for over a year, but sadly we were unable to find one." He then said he would be continuing on with Delain as a solo project. Charlotte Wessels also made a statement where she apologized to fans who had been patiently waiting for the band to return to the stage, but "[simply] put, it is the sad conclusion of more than a year of trying to find solutions to built up grievances."In 2021, Westerholt announced that Delain would become a band again, and said that former drummer Sander Zoer and former guitarist Ronald Landa would be returning to the band. In 2022, bassist Ludovico Cioffi and vocalist Diana Leah were announced as the remaining members. They released a new studio album Dark Waters in 2023, and begun touring extensively again across the Europe and North America.The band is named after the fictional Kingdom of Delain in Stephen King's The Eyes of The Dragon. | |

The Anti-Nihilist | |
| Delain (Music) / int_17640aa8 | comment |
The Anti-Nihilist: In "The Tragedy Of The Commons" and "Danse Macabre", the narrator talks about the futility of their efforts and the inevitability of death but decides to live and fight. In "Masters of Destiny", the narrator suspects that the higher forces are playing her, then decides to make her own choices anyway. "To Live Is To Die" says life is short, urges the listener to be kind and asks, "Tell me how you'll fill the void / Screaming sorrow or screaming joy?" | |

Revolving Door Band | |
| Delain (Music) / int_5033694a | comment |
Revolving Door Band: There have been multiple lineup changes since the band's revival in 2005: For vocals, Charlotte Wessels (2005-2021) was replaced by Diana Leah (2022-present). For bass, Rob van der Loo (2006–2010) was replaced by Otto Schimmelpenninck van der Oije (2010-2021), who was then replaced with Ludovico Cioffi (2022-present). For guitars, Guus Eikens (2006–2007 session, 2008-2009, 2011-2012) took a backseat role and helps with songwriting. Ray van Lente (2006–2007) left for unknown reasons. Ronald Landa (2006–2009) left to focus on other things and was replaced with Ewout Pieters (2009–2010) who was then replaced by Timo Somers (2011-2021). They also added Merel Bechtold (2015 - 2019) as rhythm guitarist which meant that Timo could become the lead guitarist. Merel left in 2019, once again leaving Timo as the band's only guitarist until his departure. Ronald returned to the band in 2021. And for drums, Sander Zoer (2006–2014) left and was replaced with Ruben Israel (2014-2017), who was then replaced by Joey de Boer (2017-2021). Sander returned to the band in 2021. | |

You Are Not Alone | |
| Delain (Music) / int_d44ea142 | comment |
You Are Not Alone: "We Are the Others", title track of the group's third album. According to an interview with Charlotte, after drawing inspiration from the case of Sophie Lancaster (a young British woman attacked and killed in a violent hate crime for expressing her gothic fashion), Charlotte said she wanted "a song about "we are the others" and a feeling of togetherness. On the one hand, being proud of whoever you are, whether you divert from the norm in whatever way you divert from the norm. But on the other hand, it is also kind of a song for "others". We just wanted a song about acceptance". | |

Symphonic Metal | |
| Delain (Music) / int_d4db8c54 | comment |
Symphonic Metal: The band wanders between Gothic Metal, Power Metal, and occasionally Progressive Metal but is centered here. They're usually more on the synth end of the symphonic metal spectrum with the focus on the guitars rather than the keyboard backing, but songs like "Burning Bridges" would not be out of place on an Epica or Nightwish album. | |

Start My Own | |
| Delain (Music) / int_dca6a9d | comment |
Start My Own: Martijn formed the band a year after he left Within Temptation, however, his decision for leaving had nothing to do with creative differences but with health issues, and he had been writing songs for those four years mainly by himself. | |
