So awesome! My favorite thing is how they are huge supporters of Black Lives Matter. Hopefully they will help in our next big push.

This album is a BANGER. WEll done ❣🤘

Oooh, that was really good! So many points here and there, and it's assuring to have fans contribute in a greater way, otherwise we wouldn't get to hear all this during these times. Not just them, but also the creative team behind the scenes. But yeah, I was not aware that there was a bonus track on the vinyl. Visions of Atlantis has one on their latest album, too. I guess I should get a record player soon, haha. Anyway, thanks for sharing this! I'll be listening to the album soon.

Thanks for this interview with the unsinkable Charlotte! Also a patron of her Patreon and preemptively I’ll say that Praise is my favourite off the album but I feel the band elevated everything to the stratosphere!

Expecting something to 2026 ❤

Much love from NC!!! Glen is an ABSOLUTE LEGEND and an inspiration! Best death metal voice of all time in my opinion!

Full link please?!

Interviews with Charlotte (and especially yours!) are amongst the best things.

Thank you so much

Justifying the mix by reference to opera is nonsense. The lead singers are supposed to be heard above the orchestra. If the voices are lost within the orchestra, the audience will not be happy and blame singers who lack the skill or size of voice or the conductor for causing the orchestra to play too loud. Some of the mixing decisions are questionable: I don't get putting Troy at the forefront on Sway - and Floor is right, there was no need for him there at all. This said, on first listen, I like the album more than I expected and I will give it its chance to grow on me further

At what point did people decide that they look better with a ring through their nose?

I love how honest Charlotte always is and she really thinks about the question and her answer. Such a genuine and wonderful person. And the new album is soooo good ❤️🔥

Interesting interview ! I invite Belgian fans to check out my Charlotte's interview too in French/English on my own new UA-cam channel too ! ;-) Thank u. 😊

Great interview as always ❤❤❤

Why I Floor tagged and not Troy? Lol

Just leave the band!!!!

The new album is their best work since Dark Passion Play imo

"We just do what we want!" Yes, and we love it❤

Lovely chat and interview, Troy is just such a joy to listen to, he conveys the thoughts of the band excellently (probably because he is a native speaker and an artist, where as we Finns express ourselves better musically it would seem). After the first listen the album lives up to the expectations, awesome songs and different atmospheres with heavy parts and beautiful melodies. Very well done.

What a lovely interview, thank you Jasper ❤

What a brilliant interview ! Thank you Jasper and thank you Troy. I perceive Nightwish as an ingenious organism, ever evolving, transcending age, time, genre. They are authentic and remain true to themselves. Each member is a genius in him/herself. All I can say is thank you for your music, for sharing your art and your spirit with us. Bless you and wishing you all the very best on your journey.

Has Troy bought Marko's hair piece by any chance..? :o) If he'd also have the double-beard then it would be difficult to distinguish those two guys!

After listening to the new album, I have to say that as a long-time NW fan, I am extremely disappointed. I have been hearing for almost 10 years that NW has lost its way since the release of EFMB, but EFMB and Human Nature still had interesting songs. Why is NW no longer NW? Because Tuomas has fallen into a bad creative madness, like his character Thomas Whitman in the movie Imaginaerum. Because Troy has been integrated into the band and he takes up too much space (vocals and instruments), for me, he should have remained a session musician. Because Emppu has become a certified yes man who rests on his laurels, because Jukka Koskinen manages the feat of being even more transparent than Sami Vanska, the first bassist of NW. Because as good as he is, Kai doesn't have the presence of a Jukka Navalainen in concert. Tarja was a big loss for the band, Anette too, whatever we may think. Let's not forget that the latter signed two of NW's biggest masterpieces which are Dark Passion Play and Imaginaerum. But the biggest loss for NW in the last three years is undoubtedly Marko. Finally, NW is no more, because it has become a "super band" in which we find two ex-Wintersun, an ex-After Forever / Revamp, a too big influence of the Auri project and two founders of NW who don't seem to understand what they're doing anymore! But if only that were all... The fans, and especially those who arrived at the time of Floor's induction as a permanent member, are incapable of constructive criticism or questioning. Listening to them, NW always makes beautiful music, in the beautiful and the exceptional! I'm sick of people like you who saw the Virgin the day before and who start teaching us what the Bible is the next day! You are despicable and you are tiring! You are so unobjective and so many "yes men / women" that you would buy shit stamped NW if it were possible because it is NW! Seriously guys! ? Seriously question yourselves! For me, Yesterwynde is the swan song of this group that should have questioned itself or should have stopped when there was still time. Understand that for me, writing these lines is hard because I have been listening to NW since my childhood, because I feel like I no longer recognize anything, because I feel like I have been lied to. Writing these lines is a real heartbreak, because NW was my number one band and it resonated deep in my heart, in my soul.

🤘🖤🔥

Great and very interesting interview. Thanks!

One of my favorite track is spider silk👍

Very good interview. Very good interviewer! I wish more interviewers would be like that, so deep and profound, and well prepared when interviewing Nightwish. Congradulation 🎉

Thank you for posting! You really ask some great questions in your interviews, and this is no exception.

Thank you, what a great guy., lovely interview.

Excellent interview - thank you 👌🏻

When r u going to laugh again Tuomas, love to see u doing it!!!

Troy put me to sleep.....

Troy is the Michael Sheen of metal.

Such a good interview with insightful and intelligent questions. Troy is such a wonderful guy to interview, he is so articulate and intelligent. He also provides insight into the mindset of the band. It shows a band of absolute integrity. A band not blown by the winds of fashion and believing absolutely in their vision and direction.

One of the best "band" interviews I have ever witnessed, and Troy's English is so beautiful👌

Great job on the interview, Jasper. Troy seems very down to earth.

Super Interview, Thanks Troy and Jasper :)

1. To whoever reads this: if Eivor ever plays near you, GO! She's amazing live!! 2. I honestly don't believe the speculation that '95% of her listeners probably don't look up the translation of the faroese lyrics'. There is nooo way, that's too huge a number... but we should get some stats on that :D Maybe she does a poll haha Personally, I look them up but after listening to them a few times, as I really enjoy the textures, percussivity, materiality (?) of a language I don't understand!

You did a phenomenal job with this interview! Unbelievably spot on questions and great flow of the conversation with a truly marvellous artist who knows how to keep bringing interesting answers throughout. Bravo!👏

Love Troy! Phenomenal musician, very articulate guy who tells it like it is. A band should never buckle to fans or critics comments on their direction or sound. With Tuomas at the helm, there is no need to. His creations have always been forward-thinking which, for some, are difficult to adjust to. They want, and in some cases, demand the status quo which I can expect isn't possible in a genius' brain.

Hand waiving away the criticisms of the mix in a derogatory manner is kind of shitty. Yes it’s art and yes they can do what they want, but at the same time you have to listen to and accept criticism by the people who engage with that art. It doesn’t mean you have to agree with it. Personally, even with Apple Lossless I find it difficult to understand anything being sung regardless of what speaker or headphone setup I’m using. The guitar are also buried in mush. I’m not the only one who feels this way and is disappointed by it, so hearing him touch on it here like this kinda sucks. I’m looking forward to listening to the whole album tomorrow, though.

Thanks a lot ❤❤❤

Oooh, I finally found the chance to see an interview from this era! And what a great one it was. So many great points were made, and I agree with it all, the flow of their lofe with this wondrous music, as well as giving a chance to bigger things, and not letting short attention spans get the best of you. This art is to be cherished. Anyway, thanks for sharing this time with us! It's always nice to listen to what people have to say.

❤🤘

When Troy talked about his dad loving Nightwish, it made me think of my father who's almost 80 years old. He loves classical music. So I send him a video of Epica with orchestra playing Vivaldi to explain to him why I like symphonic metal. He loved it and he totally understood. I doubt he'll be listening to symphonic metal on his own, but it's just great he understands now why I'm so passionate about the genre.

Great Interview. Thanks

Thanks for posting this interview. I'm in the USA and Nightwish is still an unknown band of artists---outside of maybe UA-cam. It will be interesting to see if Yesterwynde breaks the ice for them in this market. I'm not expecting that to happen, but it would be nice to see. As for Troy....I believe the most important he said is the band members are all close friends. That's what breeds success and fulfillment. Their music would not be amazing if the relationships within the band were not genuinely strong.

Thank you Jasper, and thank you Troy... excellent interview...

Nice interview👍Troy is always a pleasure to hear talking in a passionate way about his craft and Nightwish,like also Floor and Tuomas do in most interviews. It's a bit like "pott",being "here" is magic ,after what all our ancestors survived,it also is a bit magic, that these musicians found each other.😉

Troy busting out a Cannibal Corpse song title on the spot is everything... Could not fathom I'd love him more that I already do but yet here we are!
