So, I go through promo links every day, basically. I preview music (if I can) and then make a decision about whether I want to listen to the whole album or not. Today - going through Napalm's releases - I downloaded two: Xandria and AtomA
Xandria is the German band that is sort of like Nightwish. They've switched singers again and I'll be damned if they don't sound even more like Nightwish now. Manuela is classically trained so that would explain things. She sounds at times like Tarja (ex Nightwish), other times not. But she's good. Very.
I think Xandria actually went UP a notch by getting Manuela in the band.....pretty rare thing to do. Nightwish should of done the same thing.....oh well.....
As for AtomA - fucking unique as Hell.....I have to listen to it a few more times before I can actually write about it....but they're from Sweden.....and it's hard to describe in a good way......
