Finnish Symphonic metal veterans, Nightwish, have released their new album, Yesterwynde, a stunning journey through memory and monumental music. Known for heavy, orchestral, melodic, and folk trademarks, the band’s tenth studio album is a dark chest of wonders that, once opened, pulls the listener into a magical world beyond time.

Tuomas Holopainen about the new album: "Yesterwynde is finally here and ready to open its cabinet of stories, timelessness & hope for you dear listener. We are infinitely grateful that we get to share this ocean and all of its islands with you all."

For this release, Nightwish also offers fans the chance to listen to Yesterwynde on Roblox. Roblox is an online immersive platform boasting close to 80M daily active users globally. Nuclear Blast has partnered with four experiences RoBeats (music & rhythm), and RPGs Deepwoken, Dungeon Quest & World Zero, where users will be able to play the game while listening to the album from September 20 to September 22.

Together with the release, Nightwish have dropped a music video for their song, "Lanternlight", an intense, quiet, reflective ballad touching themes of loss and mortality.

Tuomas on the video: "'Lanternlight' was the first song written for the album and the natural finale of the Yesterwynde journey. A love song, reaching for the timeless; a music to immortalize the memories of those dearest to us."
