Imagineer

I don’t mind the gothic thing. If she makes the songs the way I imagine them she can pull it off I think. But I kind of think I will be disappointed.

We already know the title It's from Spirits and Ghosts and it is indeed a christmas album.

I don't mind doing a Christmas album, but really "expect the unexpected"? Tarja, you've been doing Christmas stuff for like 12 years :-P Also the cover fatality posted sucks. Looks like i did the photoshoping :-P The other one is great though!

Lol! Is that a troll? Her hair has been like that for at least a couple of years now.

Have a great time, Eilenna! The various videos i saw from yesterday's show looked amazing. They kind of made me want to be there right now, even though I am only a casual Ayreon fan. Can't wait for the dvd!

Damn, Lacrymosa is probanly on my top 3 Ev songs and its sounds amazing here. Also, the new track Imperfection was officially released today and I love it! And the tracklist: 1."Overture" 2."Never Go Back" (from Evanescence) 3."Hi-Lo" 4."My Heart Is Broken" (from Evanescence) 5."Lacrymosa" (from The Open Door) 6."The End of the Dream" (from Evanescence) 7."Bring Me to Life" (from Fallen)4:18 8."Unraveling" (interlude) 9."Imaginary" (from Fallen) 10."Secret Door" (from Evanescence) 11."Lithium" (from The Open Door) 12."Lost in Paradise" (from Evanescence) 13."Your Star" (from The Open Door) 14."My Immortal" (from Fallen) 15."The In-Between" (piano solo) 16."Imperfection" Bring Me To Life didn't impress me that much, but now I can't wait for November the 10th. (BTW Evanescence, Tarja and Anette all have new releases that day )

Yes that's the one although it seems to have been taken down. I kind of like the idea, especially if she makes the songs sound like An Empty Dream or Witch Hunt, but still, I think I would prefer something more original. will definitely check it out though.

Turns out it's a "dark" Christmas album. An online shop had it up for preorder but I can find the link right now. It was mostly well known Xmas songs. I imagine it will be "dark" versions whatever that means.

Geez, I did not see that coming. After yeterday's post I thought that she was just sick and the band together with Dianne decided to ask another singer for the european tour just so they wouldn't have to cancel, which seemed alright at the time. But this is too much! I'm really sorry to see her go, ATOD is still one of my favourite 2017 releases and Dianne played a big role in that. I hope all th best for her and hope to see her in another band soon (not a huge fan of Ex Libris, will check them out a bit more though.)

Yeah there's that too. Although I think she said it was for sth on finnish television for 2018.

It sounds interesting, but what kind of songs would a Halloween album include? Covers? Her own? Hmm

I don't see any snow. And I wouldn't mind a Christmas album but this seems too dark for it to be related. Getting even more curious.

Guys, it clearly states that it is only until Dianne gets well. Of course, depending on what she has, maybe she decides not to return to the band, but for now I don't think we need to worry about this announcement. Anyway, i hope it's nothing too serious and she gets well soon!

Yeah it's definitely info on the new album. I'm really curious right now.

Love it! I'd really like to read the lyrics though. Can't wait for the whole album!
