Have had the fortune to have seen them live on multiple occasions. Including their last tour combined with Evanescence. Absolutely worth it.

My friend almost got tickets when we were in college, but they sold out soo quickly. Still on my list, too.

I saw them live on their Hydra tour. I still remember the heat of the pyro blasts of the show. It was sooo awesome.

Thanks for the intro to Within Temptation. Nightwish is my favorite and I've been looking to explore the genre more.

Dude, same, I just listened to faster and i was like "How do I love Nightwish and not know this band?"

Floor Jansen and Noora Louhimo are two of the best vocalists to have ever graced my ears

If you enjoy Nightwish and Within Temptation, I would recommend Nocturna, Delain, Lacuna Coil, and Darker than Black. Just to start.

Will check them out, thanks for the recommendations!

Kamelot is pretty good too, similar sound but with a male lead vocal.

Ima bit late to the party. But my favorites from the symphonic metal genre, aside from Nightwish and Within Temptation, would be Epica, Delain, Sirenia, and Kamelot.

Always appreciate more recommendations, thanks!

Also check out Ayreon. It's basically rock/metal prog opera using the singers from all of those bands.

This may not be exactly what youre looking for but im always up to proselytise the eclectic metal genius that is Devin Townsend

Also check out the Retinal Circus show, which is just metal maximalism and an audiovisual feast https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s5IMHPv-sT8

Will do!

Wow, you were not wrong.

Glad you liked it, I think i actually linked the wrong one too - I usually use the Grace track as a intro to retinal circus! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1Gwtep2oXw

Its very hard to find better than Dev in terms of range but I have a whole bunch of great gimmick band recommendations also if youd like
