The excitement continues to build for the brand new Nightwish album “Decades” and its subsequent tour and with this being the case, the folks at Nuclear Blast Records are continuing to deliver a series of “Behind The Scenes” clips. So far we’ve seen “Origins” and “The Evolution Of Nightwish” – Now it’s time for the third installment in this series that discusses “Song Choices”. Take a look.
As the excitement for the brand new Nightwish album “Decades” and its subsequent touring amps up, the fine folks over at Nuclear Blast Records have begun a series of “Behind The Scenes” clips. The first one was “Origins” and can be examined HERE in case you missed it. Now let’s all enjoy the second clip which is entitled “The Evolution Of Nightwish”. I’ll return at the close with a brief thought.
As the excitement for the brand new Nightwish album “Decades” and its subsequent touring amps up, the fine folks over at Nuclear Blast Records have unleashed the first Official Trailer about the recording. Let’s take a look below and talk some more afterwards.
About The Clip: Tuomas talking about ‘DECADES’ a collection of essential Nightwish tracks.
PiercingMetal Thoughts: I’m not going to lie to you, Nightwish is one of my very favorite bands and as I’ve mentioned time and time again over the years was very instrumental in the beginning of this journalistic passion of mine. Hearing about the process involved in deciding what songs make up this release of “essential tracks” is of great interest to me so I will be sharing the chapters as they come out. You might remember that I shared numerous installments when Nightwish gave us “Behind The Scenes” views about “Endless Forms Most Beautiful” and there were a LOT of those clips. If you didn’t see them and have some time to kill just click HERE for a rewind through time. I don’t have much more to add about this but I am very excited about the compilation and of course the tour which will be making a stop in my Metal Metropolis. I’m going to be there for sure. What did you think of this clip? I’ll be posting more as they get released so stay tuned.
As noted in the previous clip, the band is now on tour and Nightwish’s latest epic “Endless Forms Most Beautiful” is bringing Symphonic Metal joy to their worldwide fans. Clip #17 shows some of the rehearsal time and song selection process. Let’s watch.
PiercingMetal Thoughts: This is going to be the end of my posting the Nightwish clips because I have a feeling that they will keep on sharing the most recent activities in a behind the scenes fashion. I figure that “17” individual posts amounts to a good show of support don’t you think? Stuff like this sure keeps a writer busy and amps up the content base so that’s not a bad thing. Hopefully a lot of you national readers are making the trek to see one of the bands shows and being thrilled from beginning to end. Now its back to the everything else.
Now that the whole creative process is over and the album is out, the remaining clips seem to just be focused on some of the other finer details. Episode “16” is about the albums artwork.
PiercingMetal Thoughts: I watched this one a little more intensely since I have not yet opened my copy of the album. I picked up a copy at the show when the band played in NYC which was last night and the opening of the tour. To say that this was a phenomenal experience is an understatement and you folks who plan on attending are in for a treat. Hmm, now that the new album is out I should go back into all of these clips and add it in as a purchase on each of them. That’s fine if we help sell more copies. There are fifteen clips before this one and you are going to want to see them all so click on THIS LINK if you missed any. Later.
