Nightwish is a Finnish symphonic metal band that was formed in 1996 in the city of Kitee. The band is known for their epic, elaborate sound that combines heavy metal with classical music, and their music often features operatic female vocals and powerful male growls.
The band's original lineup included vocalist Tarja Turunen, guitarist Emppu Vuorinen, keyboardist Tuomas Holopainen, and drummer Jukka Nevalainen, and they released their debut album, "Angels Fall First," in 1997. In the years that followed, Nightwish released a number of successful albums, including "Oceanborn," "Wishmaster," and "Once," and their music gained a devoted following around the world.
In 2005, Turunen left the band and was replaced by vocalist Anette Olzon, who remained with Nightwish until 2012, when she was replaced by current vocalist Floor Jansen. The band has continued to evolve and experiment with their sound over the years, and they have released a total of nine studio albums to date.
