esmeralda Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 QUOTE (rickyrob @ May 28 2005, 01:08 PM) Strangely I don't consider it Heavy Metal, I'd call it melodic rock. All the songs conjure up bewildering scenes in my mind, akin to something from Lord of the Rings. Tuomas doesn't like his music put under a "label", such as "Gothic"or something like that, if it has to have a label, he would like to call it "movie metal"! I like it!

kazzman Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 QUOTE (esmeralda @ May 28 2005, 03:02 PM) There are rumours that they will have a show next year with an orchestra and a choir, and it will be at the Royal Albert Hall! If that's going to happen I intend to be there, it must be so farging great! Anybody wanna buy me a plane ticket for that one? My favorite Nightwish album? Probably Once, but Wishmaster is a close second. QUOTE Tuomas doesn't like his music put under a "label", such as "Gothic"or something like that, if it has to have a label, he would like to call it "movie metal"! I think I've heard him describe it in various interviews as "Melodic Heavy Metal with a female singer." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esmeralda Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 In an video interview of the Starfacts he talks about "movie metal".. but what does it matter how they call it, it's just Nightwish! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kazzman Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 As long as they continue to make music that I love, I don't care what style it's called. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rickyrob Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 I've only been listening to them for just over a week now, and I they have totally blown my mind away. I have just been sent 'Once' by Amazon, but the buggers sent me the regular instead of the Ltd Edition, so I have to send it back to them. When I listen to Nemo, Planet Hell and The Siren, I try to play them very loud. Every time I do this, I am left with this big grin across my face, and I am almost in tears the music is so fantastic. Anyone who has not heard this band should really download something and just give them a try. You really are missing out on something special, and you won't have any idea what anyone is on about unless you listen to them. I last updated my hi-fi in 1990, and one of my speakers is knackered, so I have just ordered this.... Technics SCEH790 http://www.unbeatable.co.uk/resources/images/products/0029500/0029593_04_max.jpg I feel I need to obtain this just to appreciate fully the wizardry of this masterful band...they have just about everything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esmeralda Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 I'm glad you like them so much Ricky! They are special indeed, and there's something that makes them so much bigger then every other band with such kind of music with a female singer! You know where to find me for boots etc..

Thanks esmeralda I want to take things one at a time. I like to move from one thing to another. I have Once and Wishmaster to keep me going. Then i will naturally move onto some of the other albums. If you send me boots, I have only a few myself (Rush) to offer in return. I can't wait for my new system to come now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
