Nightwish bassist/vocalist, Marco Hietala has recently commented on the recording process for the follow-up to 2007’s “Dark Passion Play” stating that, so far, most of the bass tracks have been recorded. Which is news to me, since I had hoped assumed the band had split up a couple of years ago, after the female-fronted, gothic, pretend Metal fad had died out.
Marco goes on to say that the tracks ‘need more explosives’ claiming that Nightwish “afterall, aren’t a pop band.”
Of course you’re not Marco… We believe you. More info can be found here.
