Nightwish fires lead vocalist Tarja Turunen!
tatuu:
I've liked Nightwish ever since I heard Angels Fall First.. then Oceanborn and Wishmaster. Century Child was a release that disappointed me quite a lot and Once, well, made me a bit disinterested even about their future career - but this little incident woke me up again.
I'm really interested to see how the whole Nightwish -brand progresses from now on. It's not like they have anything to lose anymore since they fired their most powerful icon.. I hope Tuomas Holopainen continues to explore the limits of his songwriting skills, recruits a decent substitute for Tarja and keeps going on the limelight.

There are at least several underground metal bands with vocalists as good as or better than Tarja.I can't really blame Tuomas for getting tired of people blaming their success on Tarja and not him, as he's responsible for everything the band has ever done musically.
KharBevNor:
He's also probably at least partly responsible for making the bands entire image be based on her. She was bashed incessantly as a marketing tool in an exceptionally LOOK BOOBEHS way. Take for example, the 1997-2001 box set:
The back cover is just a picture of her too.
Mnementh:
Tarja was Nightwish, I don't know if anyone ever noticed, but Tuomas can't sing worth crap, no matter how hard he tried.
I doubt I'll follow Nightwish anymore, however I do intend to continue following Tarja because I absolutely adore her voice, operatic voices are awesome.
