Therion

 

[LuminousAether]

Please god, I hope not.



If you think Anathema sounds like Nightwish, you are deaf. Tristania too.

[Niklas]

Moonspell

 

[Donnie Darko]

[BoogieMk1]

After Forever > Nightwish

By far.

try therion- theli, otherwise maybe edenbridge, I personally dislike edenbridge, but Ive seen them compared to nightwish, only in my opinion not as good. I havent really listened much to them though.

Oh god- why would you want to find a band that sounds like Nightwish? Well I guess we all have our eccentricities.

These bands may not sound like Nightwish but are along the same style of music - Blind Guardian, Angra, Edguy, Secret Sphere, and Thunderstone.

Maybe it's because he likes bands like Nightwish. What's your problem? Jesus Christ, I'm sick of shit like that. Let people like what they want to like.

try For My Pain. they've just released an album called Fallen.

Tuomas Holopainen from Nightwish is also playing keyboard for this band. try the song Rapture of Lust.

Sorry Timmeth- thats why I said we all have our eccentricities- as in we all have peculiar tastes. Yes, i usually dont make such comments, im sounding like Luminous or Dying Sun- oh well.
