LOL are you serious? I'm not sure there's EVER been a music topic that doesn't bring them up on here. They are so known to the point of cliché. And just about every person on the board has asked me if my username comes from one of their songs.Fluoxetine said:
Which would be more accurate if my username wasn't a stage name that predated the song by about a decade, but STILL.
Especially since Amy Lee and the original singer for nightwish both sing in annoying, nasally tones.Best of the 3 said:That would be EvanescenceNantucket said:
But I can see the similarities looks and sometimes song wise to Nightwish.
I was heartbroken when I heard about Anette leaving. I had no ride to go to the Toronto show on Sept 20th, and seeing as that would've been her last show there makes me sad. Had a feeling it was related to her overall health since she seemed to get sick frequently during the tours (but shitwow, liver ulcer?). I hope she does come back onto the music scene eventually though. She was a good singer and seemed very sweet. I have a friend in California that shook her hand.
In some strange and bizarre alternate universe where the top 40 is dominated by nothing but heavy metal music they would be right at home writing music for like 3-4 separate bands who in turn couldn't write their own music to save their own worthless hides.Esotera said:
And naturally, being strange and bizarre alternate universe metal-heads we would all be having absolutely none of it, refusing to sell out to the corporate machine and listening to some under appreciated underground musician like Kayne West.
Eh. Nightwish has been steadily getting less interesting to me as it's become more and more obvious they're less "good" and more "got there first.". A new new singer won't help that.
They've put out 7, maybe 8 really good songs inside 7 albums. And really.

What a shame she is good singer too in the two album she was on and Live, Which i was glad to go see them Along with Kamelot as well.
I'm a bit late to this (I'm new here). I was surprised to find a Nightwish thread on here too, albeit pleasantly.
I'm very sad to see Anette go. I genuinely love both her and Tarja's work. I'm in a sort-of limbo where I can easily admit that Tarja is the better singer (whatever way you look at it, different styles etc. There are ultimately fewer people in the world who can sing like Tarja does. It's world class.) Yet I still prefer the albums with Anette (that's been my general opinion for the past year or so, anyway).
I'm going to see Nightwish on Wednesday. Bitterly disappointed Anette left before I saw them live, mostly because I adore Anette's wicked, witch-y vocals in Scaretale, and she's AWESOME with that song live. But I'm also disappointed because Anette is a genuinely lovely person and just brings a with her a very happy presence. It's difficult to articulate that, and it's not something I've ever noticed about a band member before, but yeah she just seems like a genuinely pleasant person.

Also late to this, just to say I saw Nightwish on Sunday and Floor is a fantastic vocalist, hope they take her on permanently (unlikely though)
But very sad to see Anette go, really good singer, especially on Imaginaerum (though never quite as good as Tarja in my opinion, but she was something else)
Hope they still manage to keep up the awesome new material, such a shame if this leaves the band with less than their usually fantastic form
P.S. first post on the escapist!

The first CD I picked up of theirs was "Dark Passion Play," even though I spent literally days watching videos on youtube. My favorite song will always be "10th Man Down," but I loved Annette's voice just as much as Tarja's. I just really hope their next lead singer is up to the task of matching the previous singer's skills.Evil Smurf said:
