Did i see correctly? I think so. No one has made a post about NIGHTWISH! They're one of my all time fave bands, besides The 69 Eyes of course. What do you think of their latest album, Once? And their older production? I've been a fan of them for only about 2-3 years and i fell in love with them after seeing them live in Kitee!

A Nightwish topic has never been started by us in this messageboard because we mainly focus in new (and not so new) Finnish rock'n roll bands from Finland and not in Mainstream Power Metal bands from Finland like Nightwish... For me personally all those bands like Nightwish have helped in killing what heavy metal used to be... I don't like extra use of keyboards, long intros and long songs and what I don't like at all is that opera style... the only kind of heavy metal I like you can see in my CLAWS OF SIN site... BTW, I still wonder how is it possible that one person likes THE 69 EYES and NIGHTWISH at the same time... they are totally oposite philosophies and worlds... but anyway we are happy that finally someone has started here a topic about Nightwish... Sure there will be a lot of discussion in this one and this is good for the health of this messageboard.

You have NO idea what kind of bands i like Besides The 69 Eyes and Nightwish i listen to HIM, Uniklubi, Private Line, The Rasmus, Negative, Yö, Malize Micer (a Japanese visual band), Indica, Queen, Cradle of Filth... I consider myself a gothic freak, literally. And as i am the only goth-ish person in this village i live in, it's easier for me to be a freak. And i love it oh so much. And what might make me even freakier is that i literally want to be a vampire, not the kind some people claim to be but like the vampires in films, literature and art are.

No more comments about HIM and Nightwish... I've seen them in lots of gigs and I've listened to all their albums and tried and tried but tired... nothing to do their music doesn't touch me... the same with The Rasmus... but Private Line and legendary Yö I like them a lot and Uniklubi quite a lot too... (You gotta check out Chevy Eye if you haven't yet!). Uniklubi's gig at Tammerfest impressed me very positively! About Japanese Visual Rock I haven't checked yet those Malice Mizer but I love EZO and like a lot X Japan... About this thing of becoming a real vampire... I will tell you that most of the times the way we look on the outside has no effect at all on the what we are like on the inside... Vampirism and Rock'n Roll are nothing but dreams of nothing outside the rules of their own game...

Hm...interesting! A topic about Nightwish. Well, what can I say? I must to admit that I have been there. I used to listen to Nightwish a lot before they came up with the Century Child album, after that one I couldn't see their magic anymore, they decieved me somehow, and now I don't even know their hit song. Perhaps I heard it in Ruisrock, but I'm not even sure. Yeah old times were more heavy stuff, but Tarja's voice was also much Opera like at that time and that was why I liked it. I like Opera and I'm really amazed by the soprano's voices so, it wasn't that weird after all to listen to Nightwish. However, other than because it was heavy metal band, I think I got nosy about them because of the fact that they were mixing up something completely opposite and the result could be interesting, Opera Metal...sounds cool. And even if they are too far from my musical taste right now, that doesn't mean they are not a good band. So, it's good to have a topic here too!

Oh and concerning other Finnish bands...yeah Private Line rocks it up! And so do many other bands we have in here. So, nothing to argue against different tastes! And about vampires, that's a really deep thing to talk about...Should it have a topic on its own subject? Yeah, let's do that!

Hm....Nightwish is something really original, unique thing.... I enjoy listening to them sometimes and things went that way that I have all their CDs in mp3 on my pc. I enjoyed very much their first albums and the hew one is not so good. The thing is that I'm not so much into metal....=) But the band is quite good=)

I've never liked Nightwish... I think girls should never sing heavy metal... girls better sing pop I don’t like Nightwish, but I think Teräsbetoni is the WORST! I hate it! I don’t agree with you with that female-thing: Janis Joplin’s voice was pretty rough, and I also like Shirley Manson’s (Garbage) voice.

Shirley Manson doesn't sing heavy metal... She's nice and sexy and does her best in what she does... I just meant that I've never liked a girl singing heavy metal... Well, hard rock or AOR maybe is different and some girls can do it very well... but Tarja Turunen is a great singer but she better dedicates to opera and only to opera... I don't like bands who are all male except the singer wich is female... for me better all male or all female... Teräsbetoni... I haven't checked this band yet... but I am afraid I wouldn't like them at all...
