Nightwish - Endless Forms Most Beautiful

NIGHTWISH has always stood for virtuoso perfection. They are able to evoke fantastic dream worlds, fade out time and space, and touch you deep inside with their majestic symphonic compositions. Vision and temptation, love and passion, devotion and blood – this Finnish band also has the courage to aspire to new creative and innovative ventures.

Since their formation in August 1996, they have risen long ago to become the biggest Symphonic Metal band. It is no secret that main composer and keyboard player Tuomas Holopainen is a versatile songwriter, who lives for his music, dedicates himself to his art and this seeps through in every single note of his work. »Endless Forms Most Beautiful« is the first NIGHTWISH-studio album to feature Dutch singer Floor Jansen (REVAMP, ex-AFTER FOREVER) - the splendid chanteuse has been a full-time member since Oct 2012. On the imposing 2013 live release »Showtime, Storytime« the amazing power woman improved the sound with her beautiful voice while lending the songs, once more, a special grace.

It was clear that the Dutchwoman would catapult the songs vocally on a new, even more powerful, level. „The recordings of the more soft, very deep and less operatic song parts were a great challenge for Floor, because she had never sung before on an album in that way“, remembers Tuomas Holopainen. „Nevertheless, her enthuisiasm brought out the
maximum in her versatile voice.“
