Guest davidwhangchoi Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 "There's a hundred-thousand streets in this city. You don't need to know the route. You give me a time and a place, I give you a five minute window. Anything happens in that five minutes and I'm yours. No matter what. Anything happens a minute either side of that and you're on your own. Do you understand? Good. And you won't be able to reach me on this phone again." just bumping this song up as i'm listening the heck out of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost Love Score14. Song of Myself15. Last Ride of the Day16. Outro: ImaginaerumLowdownFinnish symphonic metal band Nightwish had a successful run with their Imaginaerum world tour from 2012 to 2013. But while Imaginaerum was a story of its own, the real story of the tour happened in the middle of the North American leg. On October 1, 2012, vocalist Anette Olzon left the band due to health issues. (It was revealed later on that she was pregnant at the time, and that she was fired due to disagreements with the band's last-minute plans.) Normally, a band would have to postpone or cancel the rest of the tour to find a new vocalist, but after learning their lessons from their past experiences with original vocalist Tarja Turunen and their last tour with Olzon, Nightwish had a contingency plan. Within a span of 48 hours, Dutch vocalist Floor Jansen (of After Forever and ReVamp) was flown in to complete the tour without a hitch. Since then, Jansen has become the permanent lead vocalist of the band.Showtime, Storytime was recorded live at the annual Wacken Open Air music festival in Germany. Compared to the previous lineup, Jansen's vocals bring a different approach on stage. Unlike the pop/rock oriented Olzon, Jansen has a wider vocal range to near-operatic level. Because of this, Nightwish started playing many of the Tarja-era songs once again, such as "She Is My Sin" and "Ghost Love Score". At the same time, Jansen adds more punch to the Anette-era songs such as "Storytime" and "Amaranth". Her stage presence also livens up the crowd even more than with Turunen and Olzon. The other band members play their parts perfectly, especially British bagpiper Troy Donockley (now officially a member of the band) with the instrumental "Last of the Wilds".Overall, Showtime, Storytime is Nightwish's best concert video since 2005's End of an Era. Symphonic metal, like other music genres, is an acquired taste, but Nightwish does it perfectly on stage. I can't wait for their next studio album, which is slated for a 2015 release.Rating: A-DVD/Blu-ray Extras: A Disc 2 kicks off with "Please Learn the Setlist in 48 Hours", a documentary chronicling the band's decision to bring in Floor Jansen to save the tour. In addition, the band hosts a table hockey championship.LinksNightwish Official Homepage Edited October 12, 2014 by areaseven Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

areaseven Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 As a supplement to my recent music review, here are a couple of songs from previous incarnations of Nightwish: "Nemo" with Tarja Turunen on vocals. Turunen was a founding member of Nightwish and stayed with the band from 1997 to 2005. Her marriage to an Argentine businessman severely strained her relationship with the band, as she opted to travel separately from them and refused to travel to North America for their 2004-2005 tour. Eventually, the band had enough, and following their End of an Era concert on October 21, 2005, they fired her. She currently has a modestly popular solo career which is nowhere near the same level as Nightwish. "Amaranth" with Anette Olzon on vocals. Swedish singer Olzon joined Nightwish in 2007 after being chosen over about 2,000 applicants for the lead vocalist role. In contrast to Turunen's opera background, Olzon was a straightforward pop/rock singer. Her Swedish accent also gave a bit of ABBA style in the band's music. Olzon, along with the band, had bit roles as fictional versions of themselves in the 2012 film Imaginaerum. Things were going smoothly with their 2012-2013 Imaginaerum world tour until Olzon experienced health problems in the middle of the North American leg. On October 1, 2012, Olzon parted ways with the band. Olzon will release her first solo album next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taksraven Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Video I did of the Future of the Left show in Sydney just over a week ago. I apologise for the really really shaky camera work. I apologise for none of the other inappropriate shenanigans that have come to characterise the shows for this great band...... BTW, the song is "You Need Satan More Than He Needs You".

Yeah, i think Carter's pitchy harmony is throwing the song off. here's young dave playing in front of a small crowd at a Virgin Megastore "under the table and dreaming" and "lie in our graves" I guess glam bands belong in the guilty pleasure thread but i like this song: i can't believe their sound is solid after all this time: that drummer was always very underrated this is a small show of them getting back together in 03 before going on tour.
