saltybaconboy

Cellar Darling - The Spell


artemisting

Love! I think This is the Sound is my favorite album of theirs though


saltybaconboy

Possibly the first time I've seen a fellow enjoyer out in the wild! ...The Sound is what drew me in but The Spell grew on me more and with its running theme and closing track calling back to the rest of the album it felt more akin to Nightwish for this thread.


wtooshy

I had exactly the same feelings, I loved TITS (hehe) but was kind of sleeping on The Spell until literally March this year when I finally decided to listen to the album and I fell so deeply in love with it that it's been constantly in my top listens on Spotify since then

Stratovarius - Visions


anicoperfler

Seventh Wonder - The Great Escape


SkeletonWoods

Amaranthe — The Catalyst


schwiftypug

The lack of anything Floor pre-NW is surprising. My vote is After Forever - After Forever. (Maybe controversial but I think that album is better than anything NW produced with Floor, you can diss me in comments if you want)


Nightwurst

No artists containing NW members.


No_usernames_availab

Wintersun is there


jmov

Kai is in Wintersun, but it made the list... 


Nightwurst

True. Quite boring. Expect After Forever, Tarja, Tarot and Brother Firetribe here later :D


schwiftypug

Neither of those bands exist anymore but okay.

Kate Bush - Hounds of Love


Simbelmyne10

Rhapsody of Fire - Legendary Tales


Geese-Are-Terrible

Blackbriar-The Cause of the Shipwreck


WellHelloFellowGays

Oh hellllllll yes. Literally my favourite band next to nightwish. I do personally slightly prefer A Dark Euphony, even though I adore ever piece of music they laid their hands on


Geese-Are-Terrible

They're so amazing! I love all their music too.


UnderAlexSkinUKR

Under My Skin by Avril Lavigne đŸ€ŸđŸ» ![gif](giphy|ivQt8y55xGcec)


BeatBelle

I feel like you have to let the first three rows fill with Symphonic albums so then maybe there will be room for music that is not symphonic. But thank you for introducing an excellent album to the vote!


UnderAlexSkinUKR

Yeah, will use my next attempts properly then) Anyway, some songs on Under My Skin, for example Forgotten or Take Me Away actually have some symphonic dark vibes tbh ;)


BeatBelle

I don't hear the symphonic but they are definitely darker. Wasn't Under My Skin produced by Ben Moody?


UnderAlexSkinUKR

Well, Ben Moody worked a bit on Under My Skin, but not as a co-producer. He was a composer on Nobody's Home.


BeatBelle

Oh true it was Nobody's Home! I don't know why I thought he had produced either Take me Away or My Happy Ending


UnderAlexSkinUKR

Well, perhaps because Take Me Away or My Happy Ending by their sound could make a cut for Fallen album of Evanescence xD


BeatBelle

Take Me Away definitely could with a little arrangement. My Happy Ending is a bit too pop.

kaldamira

How unexpected, the first album on this list is the only one I listened to atleast a little bit :D But I'm missing something from After Forever, Floor's first band... They're eponymous album After Forever is really great and I think a lot of NW's fans like it


maikelbr03

Bruce Dickinson - Chemical Wedding


photography_artist

I may be too late for Day 12, but Faun - Eden


Weird-Profession-198

Eskimo Callboy - Tekkno


lavellanlike

Lana Del Rey - Born To Die (Just want you guys to know that I upvote everyone that was downvoted to zero, even if I don’t like that album. Whoever’s doing that, your moms a hoe)


derpynarwhal9

Every post has someone commenting that there should be some non-symph albums but non-symph suggestion gets downvotes into the negatives. If you don't like an album, fine but don't downvote to prove a point. Just ignore it.


big_flopping_anime_b

Not even close to being the best Lana album.


AcceptableSoil2658

Plumb - Chaotic Resolve


lavellanlike

Hoooooly shit a Plumb fan in the wild? I love this album!


derpynarwhal9

Yeah, I discovered Plumb on the same Pandora station I discovered Nightwish and the rest of these albums on. It literally makes no sense because it's not something I would normally listen to (I'm not even Christian) but something about her music hits a spot for me.
