RJ45's Metal #1: Nightwish - Amaranth

This is going to be a series of blogs by yours truly, a "Metal Video Blog," where I will be talking about music videos by metal artists, reviewing them and what not. So, let us get started with our first one, "Amaranth" by Nightwish.

Original YouTube Video Description: "The first official video clip of the upcoming album "Dark Passion Play" of Nightwish. Featuring new vocalist Anette Olzen"

I've become a Nightwish listener as of late. I was worried about the new lead singer totally wrecking Nightwish. Well, while she is not as good as Tarja, she is still fantastic.

Very catchy rhythm and good video overall. Anette has a very cute smile and shows that off in the video. The rest of the band rocking out really puts everything over the top.

Nightwish had some rough years as of late. It seemed like everyone was at fault, and if moving on with a new lead singer is what it means to keep the band going, then so be it. I really hope they tour and make great music for years to come!

I also hope Tarja moves on to her own career and makes great music for everyone to listen to.
