NIGHTWISH Signs With Nuclear Blast Records

Finnish symphonic metallers NIGHTWISH have signed a new record deal with Germany-based label Nuclear Blast for the release of their new album, Imaginarium. Band leader Tuomas Holopainen comments:

"We are very happy to continue working with the Nuclear Bast family. Our collaboration started on a friendship basis and continues to do so. I was utterly happy and relieved to see they truly understood what Imaginarium is all about, and we seem to share similar profound enthusiasm towards it. I feel privileged working with such people who, despite the infinite maze of business they must handle properly, still have a huge heart for music itself. "

Nuclear Blast label manager and head of A&R, Andy Siry, adds:

"We are very happy that Nightwish and Nuclear Blast Records can continue as a team. Nightwish became the biggest success of our label and everyone in the band, their management and crew also became trustful and close friends. For us, it is a pleasure to work with such highly gifted musicians and a genius like Tuomas Holopainen , as a songwriter and composer. We also thank KingFoo Management for their believe and the great relationship between all of us. We are looking forward to the next releases with the band, starting with the upcoming masterpiece, Imaginarium, which is another big step for this visionary band, which is simply outstanding and brilliant."
