AtteGUEST
It must be some of the Rammstein albums that I bought myself.
AtteGUEST
Before that I, uh, had bought with my sister some, uh, of the Finnish big names at 2000s, I think Nightwish, Nemo at least, and maybe some HIM albums.
AtteGUEST
But first that I bought my- by myself was the whole Rammstein catalog.
TonyHOST
And Jari, what about your first record?
Talia HoitGUEST
So I would hope that any song that I do leaves people with a little bit of hope, even in the sadness or the darkness.
Steve RichardsHOST
Taya, you're working in a genre with some enormous artists, Nightwish, Within Temptation, Epica, Evanescence.
Steve RichardsHOST
They're all natural reference points.
Steve RichardsHOST
Why did you fall in love and what did you fall in love with about symphonic metal in the first place?
Rihab ChaiebGUEST
And I loved what was cool about power metal versus heavy metal, for example, was that in power metal, you had a lot of very melodic lines.
Rihab ChaiebGUEST
And one of the band that kind of jump-started my passion of this genre was a band called Nightwish, a Finnish band called Nightwish.
Rihab ChaiebGUEST
And the lead singer of the band, her name is, if I pronounce well, Tarja Turunen, was classically trained.
Rihab ChaiebGUEST
She was an opera singer.
Rihab ChaiebGUEST
Yeah.
Rihab ChaiebGUEST
But it's so interesting because most people don't really see the resemblance.
Rihab ChaiebGUEST
But I actually invite you to go and listen to this band Nightwish.
Rihab ChaiebGUEST
The older albums better with Tarja.
Erik ArköGUEST
It's, uh, it's been weird.
Erik ArköGUEST
I mean, he's been in the band before I was alive.
Erik ArköGUEST
Before I was born, he was in the band.
Erik ArköGUEST
And, uh, I reflected on this, that he was the drummer...
Erik ArköGUEST
It was one of the drummers that I learned to, how to play bass to.
6 MINS LATER
Erik ShawHOST
It's called Scrooged.
JonathanHOST
Oh, yeah, yeah.
JonathanHOST
We did the, I mean, we did, recently did the, the actually quite enormous Finnish band Nightwish on the Swedish-spoken podcast, and, uh, the guy there, like, the main dude, he, uh, I think he made a, a concept album about Scrooge.
Robert CooperHOST
Oh, yeah.
Robert CooperHOST
That I remember the Nightwish podcast with Sean Comer.
Mark RadulichHOST
Yep, I
Robert CooperHOST
remember that one.
Russell DaviesHOST
The Swedish nyckelharpa is similar, but played with a bow.
Russell DaviesHOST
Which singer of Nightwish was sacked by a letter handed to her after the last concert of their 2004 to '5 tour, which was subsequently posted on the band's website?
Tom MeadGUEST
Uh, Tarja Turunen.
Russell DaviesHOST
Yes.
Mike SeidelGUEST
I have a soft spot for Warwick basses already since the beginning of my career, if you want to call it that.
Mike SeidelGUEST
I'm a super, super big fan already since the beginning of Marco Hirtalla, who played in Nightwish and now plays with his solo band, his solo project.
Mike SeidelGUEST
When I saw him play, and I was not playing yet, I was thinking, what kind of bass guitar is that? That looks super, super cool.
Mike SeidelGUEST
And yeah, well, I informed myself a little bit about it and was like, OK, this dude looks so cool with these bass guitars and they sound super awesome.
1 HR 15 MINS LATER
Mike SeidelGUEST
Definitely, definitely.
Mike SeidelGUEST
I would really love to tour at some point with the band that started everything for me.
Mike SeidelGUEST
The band that got me into music, that got me into metal music, but also into playing music my own, which is Nightwish.
Mike SeidelGUEST
Nightwish basically started the whole game for me and it would be such a dream to one day play as their support band.
MaggieHOST
And because my partner was right in front of that thing and he was um so he sat there for like three hours while the children honked the the thing and because like at the end of the day like the children had fun like that's uh like exactly like he said that's the most important thing but like oh my god the headaches and uh the migraines and because like it's it's it's just straight out annoying okay it's straight out annoying So this weekend, today, and tomorrow, there are huge concerts in our ancient theater that we have in our city.
MaggieHOST
So the former lead singer from Nightwish, Tarja Turunen, do you know her? Nightwish, the band? I've heard of them, but I don't
Rob WilkinsHOST
know her.
MaggieHOST
Yeah, okay, so their first vocalist is playing today in the ancient theater.
RosiePANELIST
He was the
MikeHOST
same with Nightwish.
MikeHOST
Oh, my
RosiePANELIST
God.
RosiePANELIST
100%.
RosiePANELIST
I
MikeHOST
couldn't sell Nightwish to you.
MikeHOST
No.
Milka UusitaloGUEST
Timo from Stratovarius.
Janne OllikainenGUEST
As a drummer, I think I have to go with Jukka Nevalainen who used to play in Nightwish because he was the first drum idol I ever had.
Janne OllikainenGUEST
I also go with Lemmy from Motherhead and I guess I have to say Mike Portnoy here.
Milka UusitaloGUEST
You're boring.
