    Marco is not only a bass player, he is a highly technical guitar player, and has lead vocals on a few songs. The Islander is the showcase of Marco's ability.

      Nightwish is in Kuopio Rock same time when Wacken should be in 2021 , 29-31 July ... and seems Wacken 2021 is already sold out .
      Amaranthe and Amorphis are listed too to be in Kuopio , some weirdos too , Andy McCoy (Hanoi Rocks) , Juustopäät punk band (cheeseheads , thats Packers fans in USA)
      How to get to Kuopio , Finnair has flights to Helsinki from SF and NY , cost 600€ and up , then train from airport to Kuopio , cost 41€ , one change , travel time 4 h .
      VR train ticket service is online also in english ... seems Finnair fight is on time HEL to JFK is on its way , so operating even during pandemic :-)

    Very nice reaction. Nightwish are pretty good, aren't they? Well - you just saw and heard the tip of the iceberg. The whole Wacken 2013 concert is outstanding and in my opinion the gold-standard of doing a live performance. It is simply legendary. You can't go wrong with any other song of this concert. Believe me, you won't be dissappointed. So I suggest "Dark chest of wonders", "Wish I had an angel", "She is my sin", "Ghost river", "Ever dream", "Storytime", "I want my tears back", "Nemo", "Last of the wilds" (instrumental), "Bless the child", "Romanticide", "Amaranth", ["Ghost love score"], "Song of myself" and "Last ride of the day". Then switch to their concert in her homecountry Finland in Tampere 2015, espacially "Weak fantasy", "Stargazers" and "The greatest show on earth", followed by the concert in Wembly Arena 2015 with "Shudder before the beautiful", "Yours Is an empty hope", "My Walden", "Élan", "7 days to the wolves", "Alpenglow, "The poet and the pendulum", then to Buenos Aires 2018 with "Devil and the deep dark ocean", "Dead boy's poem" ans "Slaying the dreamer"... aso... ✌👌

    8:05 Marco was pretty known in Finland already before his joining to Nightwish, due to his own band called Tarot. They are Finnish metal pioneers and started back in 1982 (he is 54 yo). Marco is the bassist and one of the two singers in the band. He also has a solo album out now. If you want to hear what he is capable of I recommend listening few songs from Tarot (for example Pyre of Gods) or from his solo production (Stones, Voice of my Father).

    I'm 64 and have listened to a lot of bands and have seen lots of major concerts. But besides the Beatles the Rolling Stones and Aerosmith, I have never bothered to want to know the names of everyone in any other bands. That all changed only a couple of short years ago when i first Heard Nightwish. Not only do I know their names but I know where they come from, where they live and so many other aspects of their life. I want to know what it is that makes all of this unbelievable music happen. Never have I wanted to know so much about any band. I literally cant stop listening to them, and I so much hope I live long enough to see them somewhere in concert. Of course Floors voice has so much to do with all of this but Nightwish is also great without her. Her voice though nothing like it anywhere else on the planet. Yes Tuomas, thanks for the emotions. By the way all the songs will be better than the last but you will always come back to Ghost Love Score because you were introduced to Nightwish with this song.

    Gabriel Bardac is one of the generals of the NW army. He is leading the charge my friend. Nightwish groove but they specialize in the change up. Marco (the bassist) is a real life Viking from Savonia, Finland. Marco can sing. He used to be the lead vocalist for his former band. The key with Nightwish is they don't just do aggressive metal. They do great melodic music in many different shades of Metal to Celtic folk music. Since you love heavy stuff, check out "Yours is an Empty Hope", live from Wembley 2015. Some more heavy stuff. Great reaction my friend. Hope to see you soon.

    "7 Days to the Wolves", Wembley Arena 2015
    "Yours Is an Empty Hope" Wembley Arena 2015
    In all of the songs mentioned Floor and Marko on vocals together, they complement each other amazingly. Tuomas, the main songwriter of Nightwish, and Marko have co-written these songs, and they are all quite heavy. Some growling by Floor on "Yours Is an Empty Hope". Marko doing mostly clean vocals adding a little grit at times. Powerful combination.

    haha, loved your shock and awe, you've just begun the journey. But in regards to your liking or wanting the energy of Wacken. Well, I'm pretty sure a lot of that energy you observed was for Nightwish cause you can see how they pump up their fans. And just for an example= The Wacken 2013 had 82,000 there and went from Thur-Sat, and Nightwish was on Sat. Aug. 3rd on the "metal" stage and they were the CLOSING ACT, ha but the crowd doesn't look tired. They were on from 2245-0015, and before them was Anthrax 1700-1815, and then Trivium 1945-2045, and ahead of Nightwish on the "black" stage was Alice Cooper, and on the "party" stage was Candlemass, and yet the crowd wanted more Nightwish, and probably after a song or two, so will you. LOL

    Glad you've finally met the Queen! Arguably the most versatile and powerful female voice in the world. As you've already experienced from opera to hard metal and everything in between, you're just scratching the surface of what she's capable of. Agree with Gabriel - Nightwish Live is best - from Wacken 2013 which has ultra hi-quality recording: 1) Storytime, 2) EverDream, 3) Song of Myself - and all the rest from the same concert is jaw-dropping incredible. And there are great operatic vids of her like Phantom of the Opera and so so much more. Anything by Floor Jansen and Nightwish is amazing. :)

  • @kimfabritiusdetengnagel2038

    Well I certainly agree with the others - but I also want to give you another suggestion, to show you more of Marco (bass). In 2005 Nightwish made a tribute version to Pink Floyd's song "High Hopes" - and that should go right down your alley - it's a brilliant metalized cover, and you get to hear Marco's voice - most Pink Floyd fanatics admits this cover to be brilliant.
    Otherwise - Wacken 2013, just check out the the setlist and feel free to ask and we will guide you properly - but you can go wrong - that concert was legendary.
    Greetings from Nightwish Army Denmark 🇩🇰 👍 💪 🤘 🤘 🤘 🤘
    By the way - I believe you age is average in the Nightwish Army - I am 62, and members are from 9 - 90 at least - so young man - just keep them coming 😉

  • @chardonnay5767
    @chardonnay5767 Před 3 lety +2

    If you want to stay with the Wacken 2013 concert for now, then Ghost River is a good pick considering how you rated this one, and it has some bassist dude vocal action too (his name is Marco btw). Song of Myself is one of my all time favorites from Nightwish, it's a bit more complicated as a composition but overall absolutely solid. It certainly has heaviness, and it's a four part composition of which they played the two middle parts in this live setting.
    If you want to check the fantasy route, then Storytime is a song well loved by the fans. Ever Dream is an oldie, it's not quite as heavy and starts to encroach power pop territory at times. Honestly all of them are worth checking out, though. Since you have Gabriel's list pinned all the links can be found there.

  • @Mtaalas
    @Mtaalas Před 3 lety

    As a band, Nightwish plays for the song, and since Tuomas is quite particular as to how the songs are supposed to be structured and arranged like, the arrangements are quite detailed. If Tuomas doesn't feel like there needs to be a singing harmony, there isn't one. If he feels there's no need to be a guitar solo, there's not going to be one etc. and everyone works together and understand that song comes first. They have their own thing going one where song structures change a lot depending on what the song needs so you can expect to be surprised.
    One thing that Tuomas loves to do is to make a pre-chorus or a "C-section" of a song to a complete musical idea instead of one short part. So if normal song structure is ABABCBBB (B=Chorus) then Tuomas likes to do ABCABCDEFG... etc...back to C (C=Chorus). Or even some times never coming back to that chorus again as in this song where the song ends in completely different thing than it started with.
    And that's the great thing about him as a composer, he doesn't do simple and ordinary songs that follow ordinary patterns. :)
    Obviously Nightwish has those ABABAB structured songs, but they're not that common. :)

    Jukka, the drummer, is no longer playing with the band. He went on a hiatus in 2014 due to health reasons. He was battling chronic insomnia. He suggested that the band took in his good friend Kai Hatho (Wintersun) as his replacement. In 2019 Jukka announced that he was not coming back. He's doing a lot better, but does not want to risk anything. Kai was made a permanent member and Jukka is still with the band, in their management team.

    Storytime or Song of Myself should be next from this show.. Storytime is a bit in between but plenty metal for you.. and "Song of Myself" that's just a straight up head bangers challenge.. Really you could pick any track at this show, they are all excellent.. Then there's the Wembley concert. Tampere, Buenos Aires, etc.. As you may have guessed, Nightwish is a live experience.. Which is not a problem, because there has to be about a hundred different Nightwish songs out there on CZcams in an Official live video format recorded from a performance from somewhere in the world..

    I suggested some other stuff you might enjoy over on one of your videos from a couple of days ago, but I thought I'd do it on a more recent one
    1)Ningen Isu - Japanese metal. Been going since the 80s. (Pronounced Nin-Gen Eesu more or less). It's nice to see someone playing a Gibson other than Angus Young
    2) Devin Townsend - prog metal into his own genre, more or less, and a great showman.
    3) Ghost/Ghost B.C. - Blue Oyster Cult meets Ozzy. More or less a one man project, with a rotating lineup of Nameless Ghouls.
    And since you like Marko's voice - look out his solo project. Both the Finnish and English versions - Voice of My Father and Isäni ääni - are jolly good. Isäni ääni has an acoustic version from a Finnish chat show, if you like acoustics.

So happy you finally learning about them! You said you like their heavier side and I get you. One thing you will notice when reacting to Nightwish is that they have a lot of different sides, but one thing in common: they are amazing musicians and they always have a reason for why and how they play a song. Please, keep reacting to them and follow Gabriel's guide. You will not be disappointed!
