Nightwish

Nightwish is known as a symphonic power gothic metal band. If you don't understand that, just know that it is amazing. Their approach to their music makes every song seem like an epic. This makes sense considering most of their songs would sound great in a rock opera. Nightwish is also characterized by the female lead singer's operatic singing, though this has diminished somewhat once the lead singer Tarja left the group in 2005. Listen to Nightwish when your in the mood for some epic music.
