Fallait pas hein...
Déjà qu'en live c'est chiant

[Larry]

Et ben voilà, j'ai envie de chier

[brother of steel]

C'est vrai qu'il est penible son solo. Y a un gong drum sur son kit, a par ca...

[Larry]

Disons que la première fois, tu le trouves impressionnant... au bout de 5 ans à le voir partout, le coté récurrent est clairement fatiguant

[Le G@SP]

Mike Terrana... ça se trouve j'aimerais les solos de batterie si je l'avais jamais vu de ma vie.

[Pierre]

30€ le rouleau de PQ, c'est quand même abusé

[Laex]

Clair, au Wacken c'était pitoyable et ça va pas s'arranger avec ce nouvel album...
C'est elle qui compose ou elle a un compositeur pour ses chansons?
sinon en live elle massacre régulièrement le Still of the night de Whitesnake, en plus de quelques Nightwish bien sûr...

Oui sûrement mais ça reste un régal à chaque fois... C'est Mike! . Mais sinon pour revenir à Tarja j'ai plutôt bien accroché le premier et je serai curieux d'entendre le nouveau. J'ai toujours du mal à digérer le split de Nightwish, groupe qui aujourd'hui ne ressemble plus qu'à un groupe qu'on pourrait facilement passer sur notre télé française si royalement étroite d'esprit!!

C'est elle qui compose ou elle a un compositeur pour ses chansons?

Elle compose au piano mais il me semble qu'elle se fait aider de compositeurs extérieurs, à vérifier.

Q: What do you usually think when you compose your songs?

Turunen: Every time I sit down in front of my piano, I like to improvise with the instrument. It depends on my mood of that day what kind of melodies and rhythms I am playing around. Sometimes, even before starting to play I already have a quite clear picture of a song I would like to compose, or at least the sound of it. Sometimes a song can be born in few minutes, if the feeling is right, some other times it can take days. I do always the music before the lyrics. The story or an idea for the lyrics appears during the composing process normally, but some other times I already have a strong idea of the story I would like to sing before any music comes to my mind. So as you can see, it really depends a lot of the circumstances. I just let myself flow free with the melodies and harmonies and then see if I can create something interesting. I am the most critical person in judging what sounds good or bad.

Le clip de "Until my last breath":

[Everflow]

De belles images... mais musicalement j'accroche toujours pas, trop basique à mon goût.
En fait ce sont des DVD de voyages qu'elle devrait sortir.

[Flamme]

eh bien je l'ai écoute et franchement je ne le trouve pas mal cet album et contrairement a vous tous je trouve qu'elle a une approche différente mais très intéressante de "Still of the night" . J'aime beaucoup et la elle ne le massacre pas comme "Poison" . Enfin chacun ses goûts mais moi je vais l'acheter !

Elle a publié 2 clips différents de la chanson éponyme, dont le dernier est un peu glauque (et prétentieux?) dans l'esprit :

Son 3ème album sort fin août.

Former NIGHTWISH singer Tarja Turunen will release her new album, "Colours In The Dark", in Europe on August 23 via earMUSIC, the Hamburg, Germany-based international rock label which is part of Edel Group. The CD wil be made available in North America on August 27 through Eagle Rock imprint Armoury Records.

The cover artwork for "Colours In The Dark" was created by Dirk Rudolph and can be seen below.

Despite her light and shiny personality, Tarja's music has always been dressed "in black" — the color of heavy rock, of mystery and elegance.

With Tarja's new album, fans will find out what happens when a splice of color is added to the mix. Or — better said — when the full-color spectrum enters the picture it does not cover the black but makes it shine through with many emotions and landscapes.

Following up on the success of the multi-platinum and gold-awarded previous records "My Winterstorm" (2007) and "What Lies Beneath" (2010), Tarja finally returns with her long-awaited new rock album.

Mixed and mastered by Tim Palmer (PEARL JAM, U2) in Austin, Texas, the songs on "Colours In The Dark" do not shy away from taking a risk and surprising musical turns, introducing new sounds and new musical atmospheres. Still, they maintain a heaviness that will surely bring a big smile to the hardest of rockers. With its grand orchestra and choir arrangements, Tarja's next milestone emphasizes once again the impressive vocal range of the Finnish artist and shows her artistic growth. With ten brand new songs and over one hour of music, "Colours In The Dark" is definitely going to be one of the brightest moments for rock in 2013.

A lyric video for the song "Never Enough" was recently filmed in Zlin, Czech Republic and will make its online debut soon. Tarja says: "I didn't want to make a traditional, boring lyric video for the song, so I am going to appear on the video not just the lyrics of the song…. This video is not what we can call the official first music video from my new album, but just an improved version of a lyric video. The filming took only couple hours with Martin, who worked also on directing my first solo live rock DVD, 'Act I'."

In a recent interview with the Music Legends web site, Turunen stated about her upcoming CD: "I have just recently found my style and sound so I would like to establish it with the third studio album. The elements on the album will remain the same as in my previous albums, also the versatile style of songs. I like to keep the big dynamic changes between my songs, so that album songs feel radically different from each other.

"I am not stressed at all this time, even though I am producing the album on my own again. I have been lucky to gather around a group of musicians who are willing to work with me, so everything is going smoothly."

Tarja and her husband/manager Marcelo Cabuli recently became the parents of their first child.

"Act I" was released in North America on September 4, 2012 in 2-CD, 2-DVD and Blu-ray format via the Eagle Rock imprint Armoury Records, in conjunction with earMUSIC.

Tarja's sophomore solo album, "What Lies Beneath", sold around 1,300 copies in the United States in its first week of release. The CD landed at position No. 24 on the Top New Artist Albums (Heatseekers) chart, which lists the best-selling albums by new and developing artists, defined as those who have never appeared in the Top 100 of The Billboard 200.

Pochette la plus laide de l'année et le contenu risque fort d'être du même niveau, une chanteuse même grande n'est rien sans bonnes compos. Au sonisphrere en 2011, j'ai trouvé ca naze

[Everflow]

[Bib]

Eh beh...

Je ne sais pas trop dans quelle direction elle chercher à aller, mais manifestement ça n'est pas la bonne !

[Everflow]

[Bib]

Bien moisi...

[mandylion]

je m'attendais à pire vu la pochette, mais cela reste naze. une voix ne fait pas tout

[Maxallica]

Oh non, l'album est très très bon !
