In a few days, it has been exactly three years since Finnish symphonic power metal outfit NIGHTWISH released their worldwide much acclaimed album “Hvman. :||: Natvre.“. But the wait for a successor is over, as the band has just announced the dropping of a brand new album in 2024. Here’s the official statement from NIGHTWISH‘s Facebook page:
“As the ‘Human :||: Nature – World Tour’ is drawing to a close, we feel now is the time to tell you of our plans for the next phase in our journey. After the planned shows for June 2023 we will be “hanging up our spurs” for an indeterminate time, as far as live concert performances go, and won’t be touring the next album.
The reasons for this decision are personal, but, we all agree, vital to the wellbeing and future of the band. Be assured that we still love working together, and this decision has nothing to do with Floor’s pregnancy or our other individual projects.
However, an album of 12 new songs will see bright daylight in 2024, as will 3 music videos! The band is positively hyped beyond words over this new upcoming musical adventure. Stay tuned for updates from our legendary NIGHTWISH band camp & studio this Summer!”
