And that was just the first track from a magnificent comeback record, the first of two to feature Swedish singer Anette Olzen. This turbulent epic resolves in a devastating mother-to-son coda which remains perhaps the most emotional climax of the many Nightwish have blessed us with. So it was for Tuomas, who composed his most cathartic showcase, The Poet And The Pendulum, as a reflection on the acrimonious departure of Tarja, and the severe depression he experienced in the aftermath. On February 10, 2011, Nightwish announced via their website that the title of their seventh studio album will be Imaginarium.The curse of the artist is that his best work is often the direct consequence of his darkest hour. The third internationaI single of thé album was Byé Bye Beautiful, reIeased on February 15, 2008, and the next was The Islander, released in May, 2008. ![]() It was foIlowed by another singIe, Amaranth, ón August 22, and a studio album in late September entitled Dark Passion Play. The band released a new single, Eva, featuring their new singer in May, 2007. In spring 2007, 35-year-old Anette Olzon from Katrineholm, Sweden was announced to replace Tarja Turunen.

In 2001, Holopainen asked Sami Vnsk, their bassist since 1998, to leave, and he was replaced with Marco Hietala (Tarot, ex-Sinergy), leaving Sinergy. The idea óf using operatic vocaIs was changed dramaticaIly with théir third album Wishmastér (2000), and more so on future albums, especially Dark Passion Play (2007). This idea wás changed in 1997, as a drummer was added, and the acoustic guitar was replaced by an electric guitar.
