Jouko Karjalainen in the way NW does it, Iron Maiden and Sabaton can do as well in their way, look at Maiden with Empire of the Clouds... Even Steve Harris said NW can get as big as Maiden became
This is an insane Mammoth of a song. The whole Evolution in a one song.😵 Only Nightwish is capable to do this. For better or worse. 😜 Good Night, beautiful girl with a nice hat! Greetings from Finland!
Hei Pekka, This amazing song is actually in a line of great Prog songs going all the way back to the birth of Rock. A good example of that tradition would be Rush's 1977 track Natural Science: ruclips.net/video/HSXD93_S6FU/видео.html Kiiti paljon
I have lost track on how many times I have watched this performance. Every single time I rewatch it I have watery eyes and I'm impressed from start to finish.
You can tell this girl is getting excited, just wanting..waiting to see what is coming next! Welcome to Nightwish Marlene! You will never be the same!! Only better!
If I was a biology teacher, I would play this video in front of the class on the first day of the year. Pity you missed Prof. Richard Dawkin's narration at the end of the video though.
to be fair - nobody outside evolutionary biology or atheism/theism will realy know Dawkins. I think it's awsome he coloborated with them, but he is not as widely known as one may think. Even within evolutionary biology he is not as published - his last publication was in 2010 with a very low impact score.
I will probably never understand what is so great for an adult to assign the members of his favorite band to any fairy tale characters. Do you usually do that too? my boss = the king the boss's wife = the wicked witch the cleaning lady = the dove from Cinderella my auto mechanic = the farrier my gynecologist = the cave troll Does that help to understand the world? Does that make life easier?
I highly recommend Nightwish from Wacken 2013: Everdream,Song of Myself,Romantacide,Wembley 2015:Poet & The Pendulum,Beste Zangers 2019: Floor sings: shallow,Winner,Phantom of the Opera,Vilja Lied & more
There are quite a few interviews of Tuomas Holopainen, keyboard player, poet and composer genius behind most of the Nightwish songs, where he tells about his creative process and answers questions how he writes songs.
As you might of noticed... "Greatest Show on Earth" is not actually about this song or concert. It is about the "Show of Earth itself"... our creation and evolution. The story of Earth. PS. You missed the final symphonic part :)
"The Greatest Show on Earth" is a book written by Richard Dawkins. It is apparently the proof that we evolved from a paramecium. It has nothing at all to do with creation. A side note, in this particular case, the person doing the symphonic part in this song is none other than Richard Dawkins himself quoting a paragraph from the book.
about the metalica part... in this part of the song Tuomas the keyboardist who also is the composer of 90% of their music makes a small historical musical review so basicaly starts with a small vocal reference to ancient greek melos then has a part of toccata in d minor by Bach in it then Metalica..... enter Sandman
And there's a banjo riff, and after the Metallica part there are even a few techno drum beats. We could also think that history starts already from the tribal drumming in the beginning of the part III. Long time of man's history music was mostly such tribal beats, before what we call high cultures added intruments. High cultures who increased the interest in shiny rocks and giant mushroom clouds. Guess the idle upper class have too much time in their hands when they don't have to toil with the soil to eat: urbanized alienation sprouts its own fruits (unedible but enchanting and addictive).
You probably heard this by now, but you cut about 4 minutes of the song. lol Couldn't wait to finish, huh? 😂 It's all good! Thank you for the video and your reaction, it was awesomely expected. Don't worry, it's Nightwish. 😊❤🤘🤘
"that sounds like metallica" you are totally right, it's the rift from enter sandman. Like other very brief musical moments of history placed in that part of the song, the metallica rift it's saying "we are in the present now" for the timeline of the song
Music is one of the most influential mediums available to humanity. And this song does an incredible work. It uses the power of poetry and music to portray the history of the universe, the story of life, our common human journey, and the scientific quest for knowledge. The result both educates and inspires. It is one of the greatest musical pieces ever written.
This never gets old. Kai grooving on his Pearl double-base set, Troy creating art on all kinds of instruments (he can play anything), Emppu driving the rhythm in his signature ESP EV-1, Marco giving us epic base lines in his Warwick Vampire while he sings out of his mind, Tuomas sharing his genius on his KORGs and Floor leading the crowd like a modern-day 6-foot 1-inch Valkyrie and seducing like a siren. They are all at the top of the talent tree. Each one alone could lead a band into greatness let alone all five of them. One of the best live performances of all time. Not only musically but staging and production is unmatched.
My eyes always get a little moist by the end. It is Tuomas's magnum opus. Wove so many elements into it (ironic choice of words considering the subject) including Bach's "Toccata and Fugue in D Minor" and Metallica's "Enter Sandman" riff (which you noticed). And Floor is just MAGNIFICENT - from those sweet high notes through to the animal noises.
Tuomas "the keyboard player writes 90% of all Nightwish songs. He sends out tracks and they work together put on the final touches. With the results of the collaboration he then composes the orchestral parts and works with groups like the London Philharmonic to produce the backing sound tracks. Some of the songs like this one are how he is inspired at the time..
Lovely reaktion :) The brain behind most of their stuff is the man behind the keyboards, Tuomas Holopainen. The nearest documentary I know is about how Floor entered Nightwish, "Please Learn the Setlist in 48 hours" There is also documantarys of the making of the "Endless Forms Most Beautiful" and some of the "Imaginaerum"
@@MarleneMendozaMusic Thank you hon.. where are you from, the States? I am Dutch, and enjoying your Nightwish uploads a lot, but not because you are pretty (which you are, not a punishment to watch you) but we are collegues, while i am in the business for 34 years now and hope one day you can say the same!
You stopped the song before the song ended. Even if you don’t repair your video, listen to the whole thing, right through the credits until the screen fades to black. By not going right to the end, you actually missed the point that that production was meant to make. Do you also leave theatres before the movie is over, just to avoid the rush?
There is movie based on their album called "Imaginaerum " . There is also a documentary about how Floor jointed the band right in the middle of their US leg of the world tour. They asked her to join after tensions between the previous (Anette) vocalist and the rest of the band had rissen so high that they fired her. With close to a year still to go to complete the tour, and their next concert planned 2 day later they, needed a replacement fast. They called Floor because she had toured with them when she was part of the support bands"After Forever" and later "Revamp" on several occasions and they were quiet impressed by her vocals (who would not be?). She only had 2 days, including a flight from the Netherlands to the US, to learn the setlist and only had one rehearsal with the band a couple of hours before her first show and nailed it. Since they were making a documentary about the world-tour a lot of what happened was recorded. The documentary is called "Please learn the setlist in 48 hours" (ruclips.net/video/vhExkmWKMEU/видео.html )
Of course, it helped that Anette caught the Swine Flu badly in the US portion of the tour and was also found to be pregnant at the time. Anette said they fired her because of the pregnancy not the fact that they would have to cancel most of their remaining US tour dates.
@@jamesanderson5268 Anette wanted to postpone later legs of the tour because she was pregnant and the band didn't want that, that caused a lot of tension. They asked about perhaps using a replacement singer and Anette was on board with A replacement singer, but very much not on board with Floor because she thought fans would prefer Floor and not want Anette back. I mean, she wasn't wrong.
This is my first time seeing your channel ! First of all, YOU are absolutely beautiful ❤️ ! Your style is adorable and I can't wait to see your other videos ! So glad you are enjoying Nightwish !!! I had just a little bit of a problem hearing some of your comments, but might have been Me or my headphones ! Awesome reaction 👌👌 ! Definitely a subscriber now ! Best wishes from Tennessee !
How they write their songs? It goes something like this: Tuomas (the guy on the keyboards) writes most of the lyrics and the music, records a demo, then he comes to the rest of the band and they discuss it, try stuff, others contribute and then they go to record it. :) There are a few notable exceptions, but that's roughly how most of their work is done. This song's lyrics have been co-written by Marco (the bass player and the male vocal). Tuomas wanted to be a marine biologyst and Marco is an astronomy enthusiast - and they come up with a songa bout life, universe and everything. :) Floor also has interest in biology so they really have a lot of science background in their formal and informal talks.
Always a shame when a reactor only listens to 80% of the song, and misses the part that is the real 'point' of the whole song (and the album), the summing up of everything that has gone before. But good reaction to the 4/5 of the song you did react to, and Tuomas' composition for that section is beautiful. It's a great song. I'm also always surprised at how many people are surprised by the fireworks being timed to the music as it has a long tradition in classical music going back over 250 years to The Music for the Royal Fireworks (HWV 351) is a suite in D major for wind instruments composed by George Frideric Handel in 1749 under contract of George II of Great Britain for the fireworks in London's Green Park on 27 April 1749. And on a similar vein the 1812 Overture takes it a step further as it is often performed with synchronised cannon firings!
Well, firework operators do have music in their ears when they perform to get the timing of their show good. So it's not surprising that you can do the opposite.
She watched the YT video that doesn't have the final part with the credits, so it wasn't her fault. I hate the person who posted this truncated version of it.
@@erwinmulder1338 Yeah, the various truncated, slowed down, reversed or cell phone versions are always frustrating when reactors use those without realising. Of course, a lot of the time there is an official vie that is the first one on a search, but for some reason the reactor still ends up choosing a bad version (though I think in this caste there is no official, but the first that shows is the full length one)
Actualy they did a movie, is called 'Imaginaerum' and was released in 2012 after the album with the same name.In that period of time they had Annete Olzen lead vocal.
Great reaction...but plz ignore the ppl that are being mean. You did a great job. Nightwish is a very versatile band plays with their hearts on their sleeves. As in with alot emotion and passion, because they love what they do.
Thanks for the reaction. I would really appreciate a reaction to Iron Maiden. The best band in this world. ^^ If you have never heard Maiden it is not easy to make a good suggestion because there are a lot of really great songs. But you should always know a song and that is "Hallowed Be Thy Name" Thanks for reading. I would be really happy when you make a video. Nice greetings from Germany.
thanx good react again ms. mendosa. that 80´s synth sounds are like horror movies that age. nightwish likes metallica very much and that sounds many times them music. well who doesnt :) ok have great day there.
18:07 They should do a movie with the song? This song is about the greatest story of them all and we are all part of it. Although some people still don't want to accept it due to a "holy book" and their arbitrary interpretation.
You should react to their new album Human:Nature. On it all three singers (Floor, Marko and Troy) get to showcase their voices. I keep wondering how many keyboards Tuomas goes through because he really pounds on those keys.
imho this is one of the three best songs (not just songs but pieces of art!) of the nightwish band, together with "ghost love score" live in the 2013 concert in wacken and "the poet and the pendulum" live in the 2015 concert in london wembley arena (possible next reaction?) from the 2013 concert in wacken, I also suggest the songs "song of myself", "storytime" and "ever dream", as always wonderfully sung by Floor Jansen.
First of all, thank you for the reaction. I liked it. Second, you wondered how they write their songs, if there was a documentary. Yes, there is, it's like 17 episodes, but here is a playlist of all of them. It's a documentary about how they wrote Endless Forms Most Beautiful in 2015: ruclips.net/video/BB1IrA8FwrY/видео.html Also, if you get angry comments about you missing part 5, never mind them. What you missed is one orchestral part while they say thanks to all the fans and one more fireworks display and some spoken word by Richard Dawkins. One can live without that.
18:03 - They have already done that! :-D With the songs of their Imaginaerum album. The movie is called Imaginaerum, too. You should watch it, it is great! :-) The style reminds of Tim Burton, with Nightwish music and with the band members appearing in it). You can find the trailer here: ruclips.net/video/qMhwh0-xcLo/видео.html
You seemed like you were really into it. You should watch it until the end of the video. your next Nightwish video should be Ghost Love Score or Yours Is A Empty Hope. Good luck with you Channel.
I've never left a comment like this but I feel compelled to this time for some reason. I sometimes get a "vibe" or "impression" from people that I meet, or just observe, whatever. I got the impression that you are a very kind and caring person, interested in other people too ie empathic. I also get the impression that you are stronger than anyone, including yourself, knows. I get the impression that you would stand up against a, just as an example, NFL player if the situation called for it. I don't know what that situation might be, I'm not sure why I'm even writing this all out, but I feel like you could "bully a bully", and I think you will at some point maybe soon. I also think it will turn out well for all involved, thanks to you. I'm sorry if this is weird, I mean I know it is weird, but maybe its necessary I don't know. It will be fine though.
please listen and reaction also Storytime (the energy) and How's the Heart Acoustic version(her voice). You're mind blow away , so good!!! I'm proud she is Dutch (the Netherlands)
Nice commentary, Ms. Mendoza. I enjoyed your perspective and your reaction to the changes. One minor criticism/suggestion. Please, for your own benefit, watch this to the end of the credits; you haven't heard the whole piece until then. It's all part of the performance.
Oh And yes Floor sang from lyrics from start. She makes it one of her most important things to sing everything so much clear pronouncements as possible so that audience understands what she is singing. React to Tarja erä songs and you hear that in some songs even musucuians can't get clearance what she is singing. Her opera training hindered clarity of Tara's words on stage. Floor is exact opposite.
This is a series of small clips on the creation process for their second to last album, you might be interested! ruclips.net/video/BB1IrA8FwrY/видео.html
My music teacher was a grumpy old man. Even so I became a musician. If I had this lady as a music teacher I would have been much more inspired. Maybe I would be famous instead of just entertaining myself. LOL!
Thats not the end of the song. In the following parts of this song wr can hear some words from Richard Dawkins, and its one of the most beautiful parts of this song. U should go and check it when u can
Yeah, pity you missed the most important part, after the music stopped, or maybe even the fact that there was somebody talking in the background. When the boom boom bang bang stopped, it was over for you.This video is a piece of art that contains a message, from beginning to end. This is not a sports event, where the game is over when it's done, and the post game comments are irrelevant. But you will have time to learn that. OH SHIT. We don't have time, which was the message of this whole thing, WE WERE HERE, we were the greatest show on earth, and we blew it. Have a few nice years.
Read the synopsis of the song here: medium.com/option-x/why-nightwishs-the-greatest-show-on-earth-is-also-one-of-the-greatest-songs-dfc703f658a3 Requires sign up but free. The Metallica riff is correct, Nightwish asked them if they could use it as they are big fans. Metallica listened to the song and approved it.
Hi, clicked because well NW. And hi there, you are very pretty girl. So you mentioned that your Karma album, was it album or song? Lol sorry, anyway wanted to ask what kind of music you do, and also are you singer in band? Just try to imagine what you sound like and in what genre it is suited best.
@@MarleneMendozaMusic Nice, so as you may know, I know very little about the band. Is that EP your first or do you have previously made albums? I mean music is great, as far as I have heard. Ads good balance for Epica, WT, Amaranthe, Sabaton's and of course NW.
This is not only a song, it's truly experience. Only Nightwish can do something like this. Absolutely fantastic👏👏👏👏👏.
Jouko Karjalainen in the way NW does it, Iron Maiden and Sabaton can do as well in their way, look at Maiden with Empire of the Clouds...
Even Steve Harris said NW can get as big as Maiden became
Joulko so you never heard any prog? Lol
@@martijnvanzuilen941 but Nightwish is more than Metal.
Ralf Meyer no shit, but so is Sabaton, and so is Iron Maiden.
@@martijnvanzuilen941 yes, you know that the drummer from Sabaton, Hannes is the husband of our VALKYRIE Floor ?
I'm a simple man: I see Nightwish, I click!!!
me too... XD
@@carlosr8680 me too. And when I saw she skipped the end I dislike immediately
Im a much more simpler man, i see Marlene Mendoza, i upvote! :)

Matt Phillips Yes. I've always considered this to be one of the greatest prog songs of the 2000's
I love watching any reaction video to this song and it’s so surprising how often people miss probably the most important part of it.

Great choice. Nightwish always delivers quality.
If I was a biology teacher, I would play this video in front of the class on the first day of the year. Pity you missed Prof. Richard Dawkin's narration at the end of the video though.
Yeah, even credits of a concerts is art
Well, in all honesty, I skip them too.
And the narration of Darwin's short paragraph which is amazing.
Yep, the best evolutionary science set to music ever.
to be fair - nobody outside evolutionary biology or atheism/theism will realy know Dawkins. I think it's awsome he coloborated with them, but he is not as widely known as one may think.

The Band:

Bass/Vocals-Marko :the Viking
Keyboards-Tuomas: Wizard
Guitar-Emppu : Warlock/hobbit)
Vocals-Floor : Valkyrie
flute/ Pipes-Troy : Druid/magician
nice greeting from Nightwish Army Germany
I always think of Tuomas as one of the Three Musketeers.
I will probably never understand what is so great for an adult to assign the members of his favorite band to any fairy tale characters.
Do you usually do that too?
my boss = the king
the boss's wife = the wicked witch
the cleaning lady = the dove from Cinderella
my auto mechanic = the farrier
my gynecologist = the cave troll
Does that help to understand the world?
Does that make life easier?
The greatest show on earth by the greatest band on earth, liked your reaction, see you noticed the Metallica riff, more Nightwish please 🤘🤘

Probably not in the video, they don't include the epilogue in the live shows. Usually that's played when they were bowing out and saying goodnight.

I hate when people miss this! It's one of my many favourite parts in this..
It's not ancient Greek. It's the Gregorian Dies Irae theme.
And some dubstep towards the end of that part.
I love this version just because of the fireworks. And the way they are tied directly to Tuomas on Keyboards.
Thank you!

NIce reaction, but you stopped a little prematurely. There's a bit more music and a little narration from Richard Dawkins at the end. Check it out!
You have a very sweet way about you, i also loved your expressions. Keep rockin kiddo.
Es una gran y en momentos emotiva canción hehe, more nightwish songs 😁🤘😎
Thomas The Mastermind of NIGHTWISH.
They did a movie! :)
Imaginaerum (I mean, they're not acting in it, but yes, there's a movie with soundtrack by them)
Actualy they did a movie, is called 'Imaginaerum' and was released in 2012 after the album with the same name.In that period of time they had Annete Olzen lead vocal.
Great reaction...but plz ignore the ppl that are being mean. You did a great job. Nightwish is a very versatile band plays with their hearts on their sleeves. As in with alot emotion and passion, because they love what they do.
Thanks for the reaction. I would really appreciate a reaction to Iron Maiden. The best band in this world. ^^
If you have never heard Maiden it is not easy to make a good suggestion because there are a lot of really great songs. But you should always know a song and that is "Hallowed Be Thy Name" Thanks for reading. I would be really happy when you make a video. Nice greetings from Germany.
thanx good react again ms. mendosa. that 80´s synth sounds are like horror movies that age. nightwish likes metallica very much and that sounds many times them music. well who doesnt :) ok have great day there.
The best band on earth.
18:07 They should do a movie with the song? This song is about the greatest story of them all and we are all part of it.
Although some people still don't want to accept it due to a "holy book" and their arbitrary interpretation.
You should react to their new album Human:Nature. On it all three singers (Floor, Marko and Troy) get to showcase their voices. I keep wondering how many keyboards Tuomas goes through because he really pounds on those keys.
They DID a movie. It's called Imaginaerum and it's amazing!
The original song is 21 mins. You just stopped it too early, miss the end...
imho this is one of the three best songs (not just songs but pieces of art!) of the nightwish band, together with "ghost love score" live in the 2013 concert in wacken and "the poet and the pendulum" live in the 2015 concert in london wembley arena (possible next reaction?)
from the 2013 concert in wacken, I also suggest the songs "song of myself", "storytime" and "ever dream", as always wonderfully sung by Floor Jansen.
First of all, thank you for the reaction. I liked it. Second, you wondered how they write their songs, if there was a documentary. Yes, there is, it's like 17 episodes, but here is a playlist of all of them. It's a documentary about how they wrote Endless Forms Most Beautiful in 2015: ruclips.net/video/BB1IrA8FwrY/видео.html
Also, if you get angry comments about you missing part 5, never mind them. What you missed is one orchestral part while they say thanks to all the fans and one more fireworks display and some spoken word by Richard Dawkins. One can live without that.
You don't really see but, the guy that plays the flute (Troy?) sings as well.
Amazingly but every "reactonist" except Chase Carneson is missing this fact :-)
18:03 - They have already done that! :-D With the songs of their Imaginaerum album. The movie is called Imaginaerum, too. You should watch it, it is great! :-) The style reminds of Tim Burton, with Nightwish music and with the band members appearing in it). You can find the trailer here: ruclips.net/video/qMhwh0-xcLo/видео.html
Moametal is a Princess of Metal, Su-Metal is the Queen of Metal, but Floor Jensen is the Goddess of Metal.
THE GREATEST SHOW (band) ON EARTH .
You seemed like you were really into it. You should watch it until the end of the video. your next Nightwish video should be Ghost Love Score or Yours Is A Empty Hope. Good luck with you Channel.
I've never left a comment like this but I feel compelled to this time for some reason. I sometimes get a "vibe" or "impression" from people that I meet, or just observe, whatever. I got the impression that you are a very kind and caring person, interested in other people too ie empathic. I also get the impression that you are stronger than anyone, including yourself, knows. I get the impression that you would stand up against a, just as an example, NFL player if the situation called for it. I don't know what that situation might be, I'm not sure why I'm even writing this all out, but I feel like you could "bully a bully", and I think you will at some point maybe soon. I also think it will turn out well for all involved, thanks to you. I'm sorry if this is weird, I mean I know it is weird, but maybe its necessary I don't know. It will be fine though.
please listen and reaction also Storytime (the energy) and How's the Heart Acoustic version(her voice). You're mind blow away , so good!!! I'm proud she is Dutch (the Netherlands)
Nice commentary, Ms. Mendoza. I enjoyed your perspective and your reaction to the changes. One minor criticism/suggestion. Please, for your own benefit, watch this to the end of the credits; you haven't heard the whole piece until then. It's all part of the performance.
I love you marlene
❤️
You have the sweetest voice I ever heard
All I'm gonna say is : NIGHTWISH
You should check out "please learn the set list in 48 hours" it gives you side background on their current singer Floor joining the band
Oh And yes Floor sang from lyrics from start. She makes it one of her most important things to sing everything so much clear pronouncements as possible so that audience understands what she is singing. React to Tarja erä songs and you hear that in some songs even musucuians can't get clearance what she is singing. Her opera training hindered clarity of Tara's words on stage. Floor is exact opposite.
Marlene = My Beautiful Buddy! ❤
This is a series of small clips on the creation process for their second to last album, you might be interested! ruclips.net/video/BB1IrA8FwrY/видео.html
You have good taste...nightwish fan 😉
Liked and subscribed and not just because you're very pretty and wear a hat. You're right. It's a story, a composition, not just a song.
You have to let this song roll all the way to the end of the credits.
My music teacher was a grumpy old man.
Even so I became a musician.
If I had this lady as a music teacher I would have been much more inspired.
Maybe I would be famous instead of just entertaining myself. LOL!
that was a metallica riff, enter sandman riiff in fact and it was intentional homage to the bad.
It's not end, you missed part 4 :)
Like!!! Greats reaction!!
Thats not the end of the song. In the following parts of this song wr can hear some words from Richard Dawkins, and its one of the most beautiful parts of this song. U should go and check it when u can
Yeah, pity you missed the most important part, after the music stopped, or maybe even the fact that there was somebody talking in the background. When the boom boom bang bang stopped, it was over for you.This video is a piece of art that contains a message, from beginning to end. This is not a sports event, where the game is over when it's done, and the post game comments are irrelevant. But you will have time to learn that. OH SHIT. We don't have time, which was the message of this whole thing, WE WERE HERE, we were the greatest show on earth, and we blew it. Have a few nice years.

The Metallica riff is correct, Nightwish asked them if they could use it as they are big fans. Metallica listened to the song and approved it.
nightwish is a production all songs have parts or sections
you missed the last part, the part that summarized it all
Key thing with there songs is you need to watch the full video dont cut them off short or you can miss stuff. This song is a full 21mins long
Do you think you are going to join us, the Nightwish Army?
I hope you have watched the final 90 seconds after you paused the video?
Welcome in Nightwish Army
Now I am at the end of the video. You did say that. :)
Do Storytime from Wacken 2013 live. You get more, with the lack of a better word, mainstream, but with a twist.
Please do nightwish storytime next from the whaken concert
Nightwish - The Poet and the Pendulum live at Wembley
😍😍😍
Then next: Story time?
my youngest son said "she is so cuuuute". I agree.
Check out cranberries zombie and then the remake from bad wolves all I can say its epic RIP Dolores
Hi, I am at the middle of the clip that you made. If you don't say that definitely, this is the greatest show I will be so disappointed.
Hi, clicked because well NW.
And hi there, you are very pretty girl. So you mentioned that your Karma album, was it album or song? Lol sorry, anyway wanted to ask what kind of music you do, and also are you singer in band? Just try to imagine what you sound like and in what genre it is suited best.
Karma is just a single! I write everything and do the singing as well! Currently working on an EP!
@@MarleneMendozaMusic Nice, so as you may know, I know very little about the band. Is that EP your first or do you have previously made albums? I mean music is great, as far as I have heard. Ads good balance for Epica, WT, Amaranthe, Sabaton's and of course NW.
