tarja is out of nightwish

Except Lita Ford is not metal, hard rock.

Vixen, I think is the same but they suck either way.

I though they were working a new album!!??!?! Im confuzzled..Haahahaha that Dream Theatre comment..priceless. It doesnt matter if they break up i mean there aren't any other opera metal bands i can think of but there still quite a lot of harmonic bands fronted by chicks in which the songs dabble in metal at times.

The band's not breaking up :P and from what I hear, now they are more free to do music that is more experimental and maybe even rougher. I believe that Tuomas is a wise enough person to realize that Nightwish isn't Nightwish without operatic vocals, that's what it's always been about. So I don't think that the next singer will be anything like Britney Spears or Christina Aquilera x)

Not quite, although the president's name is Tarja, her surname is Halonen and not Turunen :P I thought you would've learnt this from Conan O'brien x)

And Crushed Hope, it's Marco, not Marcus ;) (not a big deal, I know, but just wanted to correct a bit x))

Thorr's Hammer, Hellion, Ashtar, Dream Theater :D

I got a kick out of that.

As for Nightwish, be interesting to see whether they go back to operatic vocals, take a more experimental approach, or just go Evanescene on all our asses.

Except Thorr's hammer is grunts so they don't count. Plus not even that great. Other Doom Metal>Doom Metal with death grunts.

Never heard Hellion or Ashtar. Ashtar sounds like a black metal name, probably sucks.

Ashtar are folk metal. >_>

Harsh vocals are still vocals wether or not one person likes them. Thorr's Hammer is one of the best doom metal bands ... easily.

Grunts are best used in a band like Morbid Angel or Obituary. I'd take St. Vitus over any one of the doom-death bands anytime.

Harsh vocals can fit any number of genres, I personally love them in my doom metal.

I mean Acid Bath, are argueably the best Doom/Sludge band to ever exist, and they use a mixture of harsh and clean vocals.

Yeah, St. Vitus are better than most doom metal bands, but if you really want to go that way, Candlemass and Scald are so much better.

=)

Ayreon (and all related projects), After Forever, and The Gathering all have good female vocals.

But on topic- yes, this is big news, but I think it'll be fresh if they find a talented new singer. I'm more into Nightwish for the music anyways.

Just hope he won't be the next singer ;) :laugh:

or none of these
