交融古典美學與金屬野性的芬蘭首席金屬大團Nightwish前任女主唱、金屬界第一美聲歌姬個人首張正式錄音室專輯
獨特且強而有力的聲樂唱腔一再驅動華麗盛大的音樂想像

淒美細膩重新詮釋美國搖滾怪傑Alice Cooper的1989年暢銷曲“Poison”;如史詩般浩大之作“I Walk Alone”奪下芬蘭TOP6+德國TOP17+奧地利TOP37



不受英美兩大出產國進入90年代金屬樂已從主流界消失的影響,北歐金屬勢力在全球搖滾舞台持續發光發熱。來自芬蘭打著Symphonic Power/Melodic Metal的首席大團Nightwish/日暮頌歌樂團,將金屬的重量感和猛勁大幅提升,透出更加狂野奔放氣流,磅礡巨大的鍵盤弦樂鋪陳套入熱血沸騰之吉他音軌,一再驅動華麗盛大的圖像,其中最受矚目的美聲女主音Tarja,歷經九年的樂團洗禮後,展翅高飛開創屬於個人的演藝生涯。

 無論各樂手多麼具有默契,能夠激爆出超高能量的金屬線條,缺少了對味搭腔的靈魂主音,總感到稍嫌空洞,然而從六歲開始接觸音樂,有著古典歌劇深厚功力的Tarja,用她獨特且強而有力的聲樂腔調演出,令Nightwish樂迷震懾不已。本名Tarja Soile Susanna Turunen的Tarja,自1997-2004年間,引導Nightwish發行六張作品,全在芬蘭開出銷售佳績,後續將這股勢力擴散到鄰近歐洲各國,甚至於英國領域搶下一席之地。

2006年首張單飛大碟『Henkäys Ikuisuudesta』跳脫一般創作模式,以聖誕應景特輯暖身,輕鬆奪下白金唱片。經過一年潛心寫歌,拱出全球樂迷引頸長盼的正式錄音室個人專輯【My Winter Storm】,請到Daniel Presley(Cradle Of Filth、Faith No More、The Breeders)全權操盤製作/混音。開場如史詩般浩大景象的“I Walk Alone”,聽到Tarja再次綻放穿透力極強的寬廣音域,從舞台劇「安魂曲Requiem」尋求靈感,奪下芬蘭Top6+德國Top17+奧地利Top37;倚靠劇院管絃樂隊伴奏,屏除金屬霸氣的“The Reign”,一場華麗的古典與流行音樂旅程就此展開,如歌劇般令人動容;豐富器樂編奏與極悅耳旋律性的“Boy And The Ghost”,以鋼琴拉開序幕,漸層性的包裹哥德式飽滿音場;翻唱美國Glam/Shock搖滾樂派怪傑Alice Cooper於1989年締造的暢銷單曲“Poison”,Tarja改編的更為淒美細緻;“Ciarán’s Well”霎時衝出的金屬激流直接引至高漲情緒頂端,氣氛鋪陳拿捏的恰到好處。這位金屬界的美聲歌姬,再次獨領風騷的將Symphonic Power Opera Metal完美呈現。
