Nightwish - Dark Passion Play (2007)
Well I thought I’d start by saying some stuff about me. My name is Christopher aka Doffy (yes I know Doffy looks nothing like Christopher, but it is actually a nickname here in Norway). Of course I love computers or otherwise I wouldn’t be here. My main interests are gaming and fixing computers. I also love music (who doesn’t), the genre’s I prefer are symphonic metal and commercial trance (which some people would call dance). I’ll be a new music editor here at Releaselog.
This album was released on September 26th, 2007 and has been up for quite some time now (5 or 6 days to be exact), but here the release details are, better late then never.
Finish symphonic power metal band Nightwish, released their most powerful album ever entitled Dark Passion Play. After firing their former singer Tarja Turune they are back with a talented singer from Sweden by the name Anette Olzon. You can read more about this album in our previous article here.

yeah you might want to fix that… it’s “Nightwish” not nighwish.
Welcome aboard Doffy…
“Tarja Turune”
it’s Tarja Turunen =)
Crappy album imo… too much ABBA
It’s FINNISH with 2 N-letters. I hate when people get it wrong… And Tarja Turunen, do you have a problem with N-letter?
also, you might want to use the html tag when posting fixed font texts (like the ones that are pasted form nfos), so that stuff doesn’t get all messy, like the track times in this post.
but anyway, good luck Doffy, and keep on posting music.
Why are the two CD-s?
It’s the same…
It shows the same songs on cd1 and cd2..
LGx
the 2nd one is without vocals[instrumental] (thank god!)
CD2 is the instrumental songs of the album with no voice
Nighwish - Dark Passion Play (2007)
or maybe nigh-T-wish, with a T, check your title, mate.
WAY TOO OLD TO POST.
@6
the 2nd disk all the tracks are 1 second longer, duh!
Täyttä paskaa.
Translation: Total shit.
fuck me hehe, nice reflex rlslog
(Doffy, hmm r u new staff member?)
totally agree with #11
why can’t ppl just say thank you instead of getting on the posters case?
Awesome album, but I miss Tarja.
and Doffy to be exact it’s 7 days (the same rls as u post it), yeah a hole week
Instrumental versions? Sweet.
Wow, that’s one hell of a welcome you got there, Doffy.
Sounds like your music post might actually be worth paying attention too(as long as they’re not a week old ;))
wtf mininova torrent
welcome.
wohoo, thanks Doffy, no more listening to the promo
I liked it alot, can’t argue much about it, but I get the feeling the other members of the band got a bigger role now.
oh ok.. not that much of a geek.. so this file is encrypted?… so im to scavenge the net for a key or what.. or did i miss something?
password?
@ass sucker
why, how old are you?
Does anyone have a password for this?
thanks for the free album Doffy, and i do like to call commecial trance “dance” music, just because its less words.
and ignore a lot of these stupid comments, you’ll find a lot of morons writing comments. and feel free to spell it Finnish or finish, since there arent enough of them to make a difference anyway.
For the jerks asking for the password:

(It’s on mininova, you could have read)
7 days? i dowloaded this like 2-3 weeks ago..
i dont like this album..all the songs sound the same
You know, #27, I don’t think, just because someone asks for the password, that it considers them a jerk. I am far from a jerk, and i would think that you could use some kind of decency when referring to people that you don’t even know. If all you have to do with your time is to insult everyone else, i suggest you find a life and grow up. I have been around on this site for quite some time, and have seen some of the best, most educated people, ask stupider things.
@29
Wherever the will to power begins to decline, in whatever form, there is always an accompanying decline physiologically, a decadence. The divinity of this decadence, shorn of its masculine virtues and passions, is converted perforce into a god of the physiologically degraded, of the weak. Of course, they do not call themselves the weak; they call themselves “the good.” . . . No hint is needed to indicate the moments in history at which the dualistic fiction of a good and an evil god first became possible. The same instinct which prompts the inferior to reduce their own god to “goodness-in-itself” also prompts them to eliminate all good qualities from the god of their superiors; they make revenge on their masters by making a devil of the latter’s god.–The good god, and the devil like him–both are abortions of decadence.
Great!! Finally RLSLOG will post some music i like too, not just Rap (which i respect but just cant listen). Doffy you’re more than welcome, and please post more releases of this kind of music even if its 10 years old, if it exists on the internet is enough. I mean, your doing this for the music, not for the fastest-news-on-the-internet. I’m a big fan of symphonic metal but still got a lot of search to do in order to fill my collection, and i,ve never heard of many artists so please, post anything you like, whether is new or old.
Thanks a lot!
Totally agree with you Metic, finally some good music here
Thank you guys, great album from a GREAT band.
yea doffy good luck… try to keep us up to date on new stuff/big and even minor artists that might be worth looking into. new music release info would be really nice… good luck man.
Just a NOTE. To all the people saying this is old. this is true. it has been out. BUT!!! Today is the OFFICIAL RELEASE of this CD. SO it’s good timing… maybe…. EVEN PLANNED!
It is not there best album, its actually a little boring and I deleted before finishing the album.
Hey Doffy.
If it’s Symphonic, Operatic, Orchestral metal - please post everything you find. Please if you can, don’t stick with the ‘pop’ symphonic metal, that is stuff like Nightwish.
There’s a whole stack of other worth Symphonic metal that doesn’t get much attention, if you’re a true Metal fan and love the Symphonic genre, then you’ll focus on bands such as:
Inner Sea
Luca Turilli Dreamquest
Within Temptation
Aesma Daeva
Wildpath
Nemesea
Delight
And others..
Please don’t fall into the trap that most of the ‘editors’ here @ Releaselog fall into - only posting Hip/Hop (oxymoron if I’ve ever seen one), Pop, et cetera.
Same ‘ol same ‘ol shit.
It’s time to man up Releaselog - Do us metal fans proud Doffy!
#36 Oh please. Like Within Tempation isn’t “Pop”? It’s a sorry-ass excuse for a band, gay-sounding rip-off. Just like Evanescence (gay). Bunch of talentless morons.
Btw, this is The Best Nightwish ever.
“true” metal fans ain’t downloading they shit, you fuckin pussy.
@ Within Tempation Is Gay
Care to embellish a little - definitely with that dribble paragraph you provided, you’ll convince the world of your metal knowledge.
Btw - the ‘best’ of Nightwish you’ll hear was when Tarja Turunen was glistening us with our well trained vocals.
@ laughable_man
Try and study up on what we call, being apart of the British Commonwealth where I am, the ‘English’ language, before you thrust me with yet another, senseless, boring, offensive label - that most around here are good at.
What I like to say is..
“Don’t call me anything you wouldn’t call me face to face” - I crush and eat scum like you when I get the chance.
Still Täyttä paskaa…
Crap.
so after everybody deflating everybodys ego WHAT IS THE PASSWORD!!
39 - Quit whining you little fuckin queer.
In real life You are like a walking six foot dildo. You ain’t nothin but a pillowbitin, sobbing little sissy. I wouldn’t even call you a man, because you are so fuckin queer.
Go suck on ya boyfriends tits, you fuckin fatman.
@ 39 Is A Sissy
Name a location and time - care to tango?
If you’re an Aussie even better, located somewhere in QLD? Ah, then it’s time to really Rock ‘n’ Roll.
Ha-ha then we’ll see who the ’sissy’ is.
If you’re not interested in meeting, face to face, then maybe keep your nerdy geek-eyed comments to yourself - I mean after all that’s what you guy’s like to do - sit behind your computer throwing baby-styled name calling around like your the kings of Fight Club.
Anytime buddy, anytime.
You Fuckin Bonersucker. Face To Face? I think you more of an Ass-To-Ass Type of guy, if you know what i mean.
You Sure are a real Internet Tough Guy aren’t you?
Go fuck some kangaroos “mate”, with your big Aussie ears and ugly Aussie face.
Whoy rlslog.net dosnt make account script?
so you can ban those ones who writing spam and so on…
Thanks. This was my very first post and the next one will hopefully not contain any errors. Sorry for writing Nighwish instead of Nightwish.
@ hahahahaha
More details on location and time and less ‘trying to impress everyone on what fetid unsophisticated tongue you can type out and submit’.
Cheers,
Take-care.
Easy up on the dude guys…
He just joined in.
A thankyou which most of you dont know is a very pleasant thing to say for even a small contribution.

Only thing you are an “Expert” on is SUCKIN ON BONERS.
It’s not so bad! Ending songs are better.
A few good ones I like on the album, mainly the ones with Marco as the lead vocalist (such as Master Passion Greed and The Islander!) the but the 2nd disc is basicaly Toumas being all egotistical by doing an instrumental version of everything. I don’t blame him really, since he is the main guy behind Nightwish, and deserves to be able to do something like that now and again.
I said I was going to buy this (digi pack version) but the songs in general get quite boring and repetative after a while (but perhaps that is because I’ve listened to it an extensive amount of times allready?) Besides, listening to the instrumental cd would bore me to tears.
But, I will probably end up buying it.
I would not actually meet you because of the possiblity of bodily harm. I am content to attack you through the safety of my computer interface. Thanks for the invite though.
Doffy, don’t worry about it. For a first post, the amount of errors was minimal. We all know you’ll get better over time. Just keep trying, you’ll get there.
In Metal Hammer, this album got 10/10, now, I tried 6 times to listen over for now, but after 3 or 4 songs I gave up, it makes me upset, to say the truth. How come that Tuomas decided to take in such a ok-its-educated-but-nothing-special voice? Was it so big load to find a girl who has got a different voice from Tarja’s, but more stronger than this one? Tarja was a goddamn hurrican. This chick is a little wind.
And who are you to judge me because of my sexual orientation mister? So what if i prefer men? That’s really nobody’s business but my own!
new links please
thanks
