Nightwish is considered one of the bands responsible for the rise in popularity of symphonic metal at the end of the 1990s.<br />Although the band has been prominent in their home country since the release of their first single, "The Carpenter" (1997), they did not achieve worldwide fame until the release of the albums Oceanborn and Wishmaster, which were released in 1998 and 2000 respectively. Their 2004 album, Once, led to Nightwish video clips being shown on MTV in the United States and inclusion of their music in U.S. movie soundtracks. Their biggest U.S. hit single, "Wish I Had an Angel" (2004), made it onto two U.S. film soundtracks as a means to promote their North American tour.The band produced three more singles and two music videos for the album, as well as "Sleeping Sun", from the 2005 "best of" compilation album, Highest Hopes, prior to vocalist Tarja Turunen's dismissal.<br />The extensive search for Turunen's replacement, during the course of which anyone could have been considered by submitting a demo, ended in mid 2007. Anette Olzon was revealed to be the new singer on May 24. The band declared the upcoming release of new album, "Dark Passion Play", which features the charity single "Eva" and the yet unreleased Amaranth, will be released on September 28.<br /><br />Wikipediasorobonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15101811180478097346noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5566662560442882486.post-69754675288356056172007-01-04T01:22:00.000-08:002009-04-04T01:25:11.993-07:00Angels Fall First (1996–1997)Идеята за създаването на групата се ражда в главата на Туомас Холопайнен след като прекарва една нощ с приятели около огъня на палатков лагер. Групата става факт малко след това - в началото на 1996. Холопайнен кани за вокалист Таря Турунен, негова приятелка от училище, след като констатира добрите ѝ гласови данни. Китаристът Емпу Вуоринен е последният музикант, присъединил се към проекта на този етап.<br /><br />По това време, техният музикален стил е базиран на експериментите на Холопайнен, комбиниращ синтезатор, акустична китара и оперните вокали на Турунен. През декември 1996 приключват със записите по първия си демо-албум, включващ три акустични песни: „Nightwish“, The „Forever Moments“ и „Etiäinen“. На първата от тези три песни - „Nightwish“, е кръстена и групата.<br /><br />В началото на 1997 към групата се присъединява барабанистът Юка Невалаинен а акустичната китара на Емпу Вуоринен бива заменена от електрическа. През април групата влиза в студио за да запише нови седем песни, включително и нова, подобрена версия на „Etiäinen“. Тези песни могат да бъдат намерени в ограничения тираж на „Angels Fall First“, който е единственият албум, в който са записани вокали на Туомас Холопайнен.<br /><br />През май същата година подписват договор със Spinefarm Records за издаване на два албума. През Ноември излиза албума „Angels Fall First“, който достига до номер 31 във финландската класация за албуми. Албумът не е много добре приет от критиката.<br /><br />През аекември 1997 изнасят първия си концерт в града, в който е създадена групата - Китее. През зимата на 1997-1998 изнасят още само седем концерта, тъй като Невалаинен и Вуоринен влизат в казармата, а Турунен трябва да продължи следването си.sorobonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15101811180478097346noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5566662560442882486.post-38267401251676041452007-01-04T01:15:00.000-08:002009-04-04T01:17:00.947-07:00NightwishНайтуиш (на английски: Nightwish) е финландска симфоничен/пауър метъл група, основана през 1996 г. от Туомас Холопайнен, заедно с Емпу Вуоринен и Таря Турунен. В началото групата е замислена като акустичен проект. Първите им записи са няколко акустични песни, които влизат в Angels Fall First. През 1997, след като към тях се присъединява барабанистът Юка Невалаинен, се насочват към метъла.<br /><br />По-голямата част от текстовете на песните са дело на Туомас Холопайнен, основател на групата, аранжимент и клавири. Успехът на групата се дължи главно на вокалите, изпълнени от Таря Турунен, която е завършила класическо и оперно пеене в Германия. В последните песни на групата вокал е и басистът на групата Марко Хиетала.<br /><br />Музикалният стил на Найтуиш се описва като епичен метъл, пауър метъл, метъл-опера, симфоничен метъл и готик метъл. Туомас Холопайнен в свое изказване описва музиката на Найтуиш като "мелодичен хеви метъл с женски вокали".<br /><br />До този момент групата има две световни турнета — From Wishes to Eternity от 2001 и Once Upon a Tour от 2004/2005. Първото им турне обхваща предомно държави от западна Европа и Скандинавия. С второто си турне Once Upon a Tour, което завърши на 21 октомври 2005 година в Hartwall Arena в Хелзинки, изнасят концерти в много държави навсякъде по света: Румъния, Канада, САЩ, Япония, Германия и др. След края на финалния концерт останалите членове на групата връчват писмо на Турунен, в което ѝ обясняват, че вече не желаят да е член, поради отношението ѝ към групата. Като фактор е изтъкнато и влиянието на съпруга ѝ- Марчело Кабули. Вече имат нова вокалистка - Анет Озон.sorobonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15101811180478097346noreply@blogger.com0
