Including a Blu-ray Digipack of the band’s live stream event, An Evening With Nightwish In A Virtual World, the release is a testimonial to a formative time in our history, which pushed artists to their limits and demanded creative solutions for the live business.
Having refined their broody, mesmerising vision of gothic/symphonic metal to cinematic levels, with three EPs and a full-length album behind them, BLACKBRIAR continue to set their sails towards the future. The Netherlands based band are proud to announce their signing to Nuclear Blast Records, and are currently working towards their second full-length album, accompanied by long-time collaborator, Joost van den Broek. Today, the band have released a brand-new song titled ‘Crimson Faces‘.
Over the past two years, symphonic metal luminaries NIGHTWISH have also been affected by the live show cancellations and restrictions. They’ve not yet been able to present their highly successful albumHuman. :II: Nature. (No. 1 in Finland and Germany) live, globally. Now, this is about to change with the launch of their lengthy European tour, taking place across this November and December.
