 | | Description: | Since the band's inception in 1996, Nightwish have released eight full length releases, sold millions of records world-wide, and become one of the most popular female fronted, symphonic metal bands of all time. In 2015 Nightwish plan on carrying this successful formula forward and release their ninth full length album, Endless Forms Most Beautiful. Produced by Tero 'TeeCee' Kinnumen, Endless Forms Most Beautiful features album artwork by Finnish artist Toxic Angel and includes adult & children's choirs, collaborative work with esteemed orchestral arranger Pip Williams, session drum work by Kai Hahto of Winter sun (who is sitting in for the ailing Nightwish drummer Jukka Nevalainen), and a guest appearance by evolutionary biologist, writer, and atheist Richard Dawkins.? &© 2015 ? Nuclear Blast Records"Endless Forms Most Beautiful" is a CD album by the Finnish symphonic metal band Nightwish, released under the renowned metal label Nuclear Blast. The record marks a creative high point for the band, combining bombastic orchestral arrangements, powerful riffs and cinematic soundscapes with lyrics deeply inspired by science, evolution and the wonder of life. Across its tracks, the album explores themes such as the origins of life, the beauty of nature and the human quest for knowledge, resulting in an immersive listening experience that is both intellectually stimulating and emotionally stirring. The production is polished and expansive, allowing choirs, orchestras and metal instrumentation to blend seamlessly into a grand, soundtrack-like whole.
Musically, "Endless Forms Most Beautiful" showcases Nightwish's signature blend of symphonic metal, progressive elements and melodic hooks. Dynamic contrasts between quiet, atmospheric passages and majestic, heavy climaxes give the album a strong narrative feel, almost like a concept soundtrack about the story of life itself. The expressive female lead vocals are complemented by male vocal parts and choral layers, while the use of keyboards, orchestrations and folk-tinged details adds depth and color. This CD is ideal for listeners who appreciate ambitious, cinematic metal with a strong conceptual framework, and for fans who enjoy albums that reveal new layers with every listen.

Their albums regularly enter high positions in international charts, and their extensive touring history has earned them a devoted global fan base. With works that have become genre classics, Nightwish are regarded as a benchmark for quality and ambition in modern metal.
