Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Equal parts epic metal and gothic symphony, Nightwish stand alone. They blend soaring keyboards and operatic vocals with shredding guitars and jagged rhythms for a
style of cinematic, orchestral heavy music all their own. Nightwish's style has established them as one of the premier female-fronted metal bands. With overpowering keyboard
tones reminiscent of classic film scores, the band separates
itself. Their combination of seductive, emotional vocals and gallant guitar melodies brings to mind both Evanescence and Iced Earth. Made In Hong Kong was recorded during
the 'Dark Passion Play World Tour.' The release includes a bonus-DVD with material recorded and filmed from Israel to South-America. Directed by Ville Lipiäinen, 'BACK IN THE DAY...IS NOW' is a world tour documentary. The DVD also includes the videos for 'Amaranth,' 'Bye Bye Beautiful,' and 'The Islander.' The bonus tracks on the audio portion of the release are 'Escapist,' 'While Your Lips Are Still Red,' and 'Cadence of Her Last Breath' - making this a true Nightwish fan collector's piece.

3.0 out of 5 stars A mixed blessing, April 9, 2009
I'm grateful for a Nightwish live release representing the Annette-fronted version of the band, but this could have been better. It's a bit skimpy. There are 8 live tracks from the Dark Passion Play tour, 2 B-sides and a demo. The live tracks are great. They sound excellent and the band rocks hard. Don't expect a whole lot of variation from the album versions though. Of course, there are no songs from the Tarja albums. If that's what you're looking for, there is a wonderful live release called End of an Era that is well worth checking out. This disc is a bit short. Not to mention the glaring omission of Meadows of Heaven, my favorite song from Dark Passion Play. The DVD is fluff. A short documentary about the tour and three music videos. I hate these CD/DVD combos. The DVD content is rarely worthwile and only serves to jack up the price as is the case here.

So although the content is good, this just isn't a very good value. I would like to have seen a complete live show. The CD is only 66 minutes long. They could have dropped the three "bonus" tracks and included probably 4 or 5 more live tracks. And dropped the DVD entirely. But that's record companies for you. For live Nightwish, End of an Era is certainly the way to go.

4.0 out of 5 stars Anette Olzon Is The Best Thing To Happen To Nightwish, April 6, 2009
A reviewer said that the lack of older material on this new live CD was due to the fact that the new singer couldn't handle the older songs, well I happen to have 6 full length live Nightwish concert videos featuring Anette Olzon, that say otherwise, in fact, I'll go as far as saying that she not only nails the older songs, but in several cases, sounds better then Tarja does live (or in studio for that matter). I'd say the reason for the lack of older material on this new CD is that they where concentrating on songs from the new album in an attempt to move forward.

Another thing that strikes me is how happy Anette looks while singing the classic songs, as opposed to Tarja's performance on the, End of an Era live DVD, where she looks like she's just doing a job (which is apparently all that Nightwish had become to her, a job).

And for all of the boo-hooers out there pining for Tarja, there's a post Nightwish press conference with Tarja (which you can find on You Tube with subtitles) where she states that she had told the Nightwish guys that she was going to leave the band to pursue a solo career after the next album (which would have been the Dark Passion Play album) which means that she had no intention of continuing on with the band in the future, so all the band did was fire her before she quit, so that they could find a replacement and move on since she no longer considered the future of the band a priority.

So I think that fans should give Anette Olzon a chance, because she has a beautiful voice, which is giving Nightwish a new palette of sound to play with, and should also keep in mind that she's a innocent bystander in Tarja's departure from the band, having not been hired till well after Tarja was gone

P.S. I'm a new fan, having only come upon Nightwish about 2 months ago, and the first song I heard was, Wish I Had An Angel, which wet my appetite, but it was hearing the song, Amaranth that really blew me away and hooked me, and now I can't get enough of them >^..^<

3.0 out of 5 stars Good but Short on Content, April 3, 2009
I have not gotten to the DVD yet since I am listening at work. The Disc is good, the live material is all top notch, however I feel a little flat that some of the older material that they have been playing on the tour is not included. Annette absolutely owns "Everdream" and I wish it had been on this Disc. HINT: To this Band and all Bands if you put out Live releases that don't include the actual content of your shows, and the songs that fans like to hear if they can't get them from you they WILL get somewhere.
