Symphonic metal news with a sprinkle of fairy dust

News Round-Up: Epica, Nightwish, Tarja, The Dark Element, Lacuna Coil


I think it's time for a new style of news round-up - one that's quicker to read and quicker to type, since I have a baby to look after and a new series of books to write! So here is a bunch of the latest news, in bite size format... 

- Epica have announced a special gold edition of Design Your Universe. The new 2 disc edition is remixed and remastered with new gold cover art, and includes a CD of acoustic versions. It is due for release on 4th October.

Nightwish have begun working on their 9th studio album at their usual summer camp, set to be released during spring 2020. This follows news that Kai Hahto will replace Jukka Nevalainen permanently as drummer of the band.

- Tarja is set to support Evanescence as a special guest at their show in Trnava, Slovakia.

- Anette Olzon's new band The Dark Element have completed their second album, due for release in November.

- Lacuna Coil have revealed the album cover for their new album Black Anima (see below). The first video has been released for the single Layers of Time: check it out in the player. The band have also announced a special show at the London Dungeons.
