Angels Fall First

Nightwish

A raw, unpolished blend of operatic vocals and campfire folk. The sound of a legendary band finding their voice in a remote Finnish cabin.

September 30, 1997 · Spinefarm Records U.K.

Find on Amazon

A naive and mystical exploration of nature and myth, balancing delicate folk with unrefined metal power.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The transition from the delicate acoustic opening of Elvenpath into the sudden, unpolished crunch of the main riff.
