NIGHTWISH - Vocal Recordings For New Album Complete
September 28, 2014, 10 years ago
Finland's Nightwish, now featuring Dutch vocalist Floor Jansen up front, have checked in with the following update:
"Vox done! Marco and Floor finished their vocal recording! We're getting closer to the end of these magical recording sessions, but this milestone in its process was celebrated with as much joy as the recording itself!"Jansen: "I can't believe how fast all of this went, like in a dream! I am so happy with all of it though and can't wait to share it with all of you!"
Nightwish are currently working on their new album, along with producer Tero “TeeCee” Kinnunen. The yet-untitled creation will be the first Nightwish studio-record to feature Floor Jansen. Longtime drummer Jukka Nevalainen will sit out on the recording sessions due to health issues; Kai Hahto (Wintersun, Swallow The Sun, Trees Of Eternity) will replace him. It’s set for a release in spring 2015 via Nuclear Blast.
The band recently released the fourth album trailer called The Beginning Of The Summer Camp.
Commented drummer Jukka Nevalainen on the first actual band rehearsal: “You have to remember that the last time we played together was about 11 months ago. It’s been quite a while. So, all things considered out initial stabs were pretty OK.”
Added guitarist Emppu Vuorinen: “You start to get into the songs when you rehearse them. We played a heavier tune, and it did get me moshing a bit. I don’t know if it has something to do with age – but the need to show off has diminished even more. It’s more like you want to do justice to the song and not strut your stuff.”
Three previous trailers follow:
#1 – The Cabin:
#2 – By The Lake:
#3 - Inside His Head:
