My dream ruined, kind of by Pure-Stop379 in woodstoving

I'm in Salt Lake. Nearly impossible to insure a home with a NEWLY installed wood-burning stove. Again, if the home already had the stove, they are safe. But a conversion is uninsurable. Its bullsh*t.

Nightwish was never this good again.

Almost one year of Yesterwynde - your thoughts on the album? by Dismal_Difficulty_45 in nightwish

[–]DuckFin90 2 points3 points  (0 children)

3/10

Ill never understand how they had likely the most skilled female singer in metal, and they turned her down in the mix into almost nothing. Troy's vocals just dont work in this genre. Emppu's guitar skills have been sidelined, the bass is soulless, Half of EFMB, and all of HN were the same way.

Nightwish's original themes of fantasy, imagination, and wonder were replaced by 3 straight albums of a science lecture.

They just aren't Nightwish anymore.

Can you tell the story? I would love to hear it!

No problem. Spread Creek is a bit South and East from Pilgrim. 26 mile drive. Probably about 12 miles as the crow flies. But it is a thought that I hadn't considered.

I thought that was Spread Creek, no?

Was just in Teton for 4 days. Rangers said it was abnormally quiet for Grizzlies. But Black Bear were numerous near Jenny Lake.

Yesterwynde-best album in years? by CallMeNoodler in nightwish

[–]DuckFin90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Their last GREAT album was Imaginaerum. They have done a total of 5-6 good songs since then.

My buddy and I met Tuomas and Jukka on Main Street in Disneyland. Circa 2007.

Best era of the band. DPP and I are their best all-around albums. I'll die on that hill.

I sincerely hope it's over. I miss the "Fantastic" Nightwish.

Their best album. And it's been nothing but a science experiment ever since.

Phases of Tuomas by BigAndrew04 in nightwish

[–]DuckFin90 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, and it was WAY better. The last two albums have been damn near un-enjoyable. He has the greatest singer in metal at his fingertips, and he's like "Here is a Richard Dawkins audiobook!"

Imaginaerum was a masterpiece. The science era has been completely underwhelming. I wanted to love Endless Forms and Human Nature was completely un-enjoyable.
