I just started listening to their songs, and I really like them. Can anyone recommend me some bands that are similar to them? I am starting to like Gothic Rock.
Venetien Snares >:D
Nightwish is more power metal than gothic rock (although some people would consider Nightwish gothic metal). If you like gothic rock, check out Sisters of Mercy, Bauhaus, Nosferatu, Alien Sex Fiend (don’t let the name fool you), Virgin Prunes, the Cruxshadows, Siouxsie and the Banshees, and some stuff by The Cure.
But what you’re probably looking for would be other bands that people consider gothic metal such as Moonspell, Theatre of Tragedy, and earlier Christian Death. If you want some good symphonic metal bands with female vocalists I highly reccommend Lacuna Coil and the Gathering.
Blind Guardian?
Gamma Ray?
genericangstyposter hit it on the head… with a gun! And yeah, they’re more power metal than gothic metal. Symphonic metal at that.
You should search this site: http://www.metal-archives.com/, just search under “music genre” and then type in symphonic power metal, you should find a fair amount of bands that might have a similar sound.
