Ok thanks Looks like I'll be going. It's like £13 but I have some money from savings accounts coming this month. Which pays for Download and gigs Plus I have an exam on 21st and on 22nd so be nice to have a gig.
I like them. They're quite different from a lot of Femme bands I've heard. Now I gotta learn all there songs so I can sing along
Edit: Delain's new album is now being released on 27th March. This makes March even better but now it's put a downer on Feb. Why are they making us wait

I know... I thought I had a gig in February but because of the album release delay it's moved to somewhere in May.
Anyhow, support for the gig is Kingfisher Sky, what do we think of them?

Well atleast you'll get to see them. They really need to come to England so I can become really obsessed.
You know I havent listened to them *hides* I keep meaning to. I feel bad. What are they like?

I like them. Disinctive sound, and they don't sound anything like I was expecting (what with them being a female fronted Dutch band with metal influences, and a former WT member at the helm). Beautiful vocals too.

Hmmm. There good but I dunno they just didn't capture me. Myabe they will grow on me Her voice is nice but I didn't get a special feeling that I need with singers
I'm not that good with female fronted bands though. Only WT, Nightwish and now Delain.
Anneke's voice is still growing on me but I was completely blown away with this live version of Waking Hours. She is amazing on it.
I really would like to find a good 'symphonic metal' ish band with a male singer.

I tell you, there is no band like Closterkeller. I've searched and searched but still nothing even close.
Thus, meaning Closterkeller are the most unique band *smug grin*
Anyways, no matter what bands you comapre to WT you get people saying that there ius nothing that could compare to them. Matter of fact there's a small amount bands that can.
Also, Evanescence is evil, they are NOTHING like WT. Never in 100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 years would they be alike. NEVER!

^ You should have told me you were looking for those I knew about them for a long time. I like them, just like I'll Reach You. Delain can better do really good this year! (There's a gap in my fan-mind caused by AF...)

I didnt know they had played them live until yesterday. I was looking at peoples comments on Delain on WT's Official forum and someone said something about them playing the 2 new songs and they were on YT
I'll Reach You is beautiful and I love Start Swimming and Stay Forever. I'm so excited It needs to be March.
Were you a big After Forever fan then?

Sorry for the double post but I've found a good place to order Delain's new album April Rain.
I'm guessing as it's the digipack it will have the bonus songs and it also has a DVD I didnt realise it was being released with a DVD. Postage to the uk is only €2.50 Not sure what it is to US but I'm sure it's not bad.
I might give it time to see if Delain say anything about the DVD before I pre-order.
My brother said to me the other day when I was listening to Delain that all the bands I listen to are the same. Apparently Delain sound like WT and NW. I asked him why and how they sound the same and all he came up with was that the singers female. They dont sound the same.

So I notice this over on the Offical NW forum that us who love WT the most seem to really love Nightwish as well, but the people who are bigger fans of Nightwish seem to not like WT so much and kind of look down on them for not being as 'metal'

I've noticed that too...a lot of big Nw fans aren't that into WT. I think there are two parts of the "symphonic metal" fandom...one that is shall we say led by WT and another Nw.
I'd say Nw is more metally than WT, but WT is more bombastic/ melodic...it's kinda a trade-off.
