This album sets new standards within the metal genre: NIGHTWISH's sixth studio record "Once" exceeds all expectations! Never before the band has merged elements of classic and metal so homogeneous and created such a bombastic and powerful result. "Once" overflows downright with both strength and melody, manifested through the great effort of the band itself and the committed London Session Orchestra (well-known for e.g. the soundtrack of "Lord Of The Rings III"), which helped NIGHTWISH to produce an unforgettable longplayer. Beside the hit single 'Nemo', "Once" features ten more unbelievable songs in the same epical and majestic style, such as 'I Wish I Had An Angel', 'Planet Hell' or 'Higher Than Hope'. A moving journey through all different shadings of emotions you just can imagine!

"Once I had a dream, and this is it".

This is the opening line of an album that would change the lives of some young Finnish musicians with fire in their hearts and an ocean full of sweet music in their souls. An album that would also influence thousands of people all over the world for years to come. "Once", NIGHTWISH's fifth studio album saw the light of day on June 7th 2004 - it changed the metal world completely and made the band living legends.

NIGHTWISH pay tribute to the manifesto that they gifted the world 18 years ago, announcing a re-release of "Once" as a remastered version with bonus tracks.

Maestro Tuomas Holopainen states: "Nostalgia is a powerful tool. I easily remember what those days surrounding the release of the record were like. The excitement, the ambition, the comradeship, the triumphant tour to come, it was all there, about to carry the band to another level, musically and journey wise."

"Once" was not only a unique milestone for the band, it also sealed the long-term relationship between Nuclear Blast Records and NIGHTWISH - a bond that has been unbroken until today. It climbed up to #1 in the album charts in Germany, Finland, Norway and Greece, achieving triple platinum status in Finland with more than 90.000 CDs sold, triple gold status in Germany with more than 300.000 sold CDs and gold status in Switzerland, Austria and Norway.

With "Once", NIGHTWISH set themselves a monument - Symphonic Metal in perfection with bombastic heights and emotional depths that don't leave anyone cold. Eluding just isn't possible - so let NIGHTWISH also touch YOUR heart with this thrilling masterpiece!
