The first single, 'Eva', was leaked on the Internet six days before its official release, prompting the band to release the single earlier to boost downloads. Several other versions of the song were posted on YouTube and torrent sites a month later; the entire album with record label voice-overs had been leaked on the Internet by 2 August. The full album (without voiceovers) was leaked on 21 September 2007, as a result of several stores in Mexico selling the retail album much prior to the worldwide release date.

Pre-orders for Dark Passion Play had it certified gold in Finland before it had even been released.^[4] The album debuted at number one in 6 European countries, selling over 100,000 copies in Finland (triple platinum). In February 2008, the album was certified quadruple-platinum in Finland, after having sold over 120,000 copies, which makes it one of the 40 best-selling albums of all time in the country.^[5][6] Worldwide, Dark Passion Play has sold almost 2 million copies since its release.

Background and production[edit]

On 21 October 2005, after the Once Upon a Tour, the band's lead singer Tarja Turunen was dismissed via an open letter. In search of a replacement, the band conducted auditions from 17 March 2006 to 15 January 2007, receiving over 2000 demo tapes in the process.^[7] Amidst much speculation the new singer was officially announced on 24 May 2007 to be Anette Olzon, previously the singer for the Swedish AOR band Alyson Avenue. In an interview, Holopainen said they had made the decision in January 2007 based on the impression she made while performing the song 'Ever Dream' from the album Century Child.^[8]

The recording process started in the spring 2006 in different studios across Europe; the drums were recorded by Nevalainen in Hollola, Finland, at the Petrax Studios, Emppu Vuorinen recorded the guitars in Kerava, Finland, were also record the keyboards by Holopainen and the bass parts by Marco Hietala.^[9] Hietala is also the band's male singer, and in 2006 Hietala sung some of the new songs to record the demo versions as a base for the final recordings, with definitive vocals being recorded by Olzon at the Petrax in March 2007, immediately after being chosen to replace Tarja Turunen, and nearly two months before her name was given to the media and the fans.^[9]

When the drummer Jukka Nevalainen was asked about the overall cost of the new album, he was quoted as saying 'Roughly half a million.. We don't know the exact sum down to the euros and cents as yet.'^[9] Half of this cost was incurred in London, over an expensive eight days at the Abbey Road Studios in London, UK, during which time the London Session Orchestra, the Metro Voices Choir, a gospel choir and two Irish musicians recorded their parts at the studio.^[9] In an interview with Kerrang! on 16 August 2008 Tuomas Holopainen recalled:

After the split with Tarja, we started writing without a singer, and it was quite a liberating feeling. We knew the right girl was out there somewhere, so we could just concentrate on the music. It took 10 months in the studio to make, but the atmosphere was so good and liberating there was a lot of bittersweet relief in the air. It was an extremely inspirational time.^[4]

'When I think back to it, it was such a crucial point to so many people, we didn't even realise back then but it showed us what we would be doing for the next year of our lives. We were never nervous about Anette, or the album being good, but we just couldn't tell how people would take it. Would they like Anette? Would they like the music? That was in the back of our minds all the time. And there was such a huge amount of money involved, over 800.000 euros, that we needed to sell at least a few albums to get going,' Tuomas Holopainen was recalling in 2008.^[4] According to Decibel, the album's studio bill was around 680,000 USD.^[10]

The orchestral line-up featured 66 members from the London Philharmonic Orchestra, 32 singers from The Metro Voices and twelve gospel singers.^[9] The final mixing process spent more than 75 days at the Finnvox Studios in Kitee, Finland, the same place where Nightwish recorded all their previous albums.^[9]

Music description[edit]

Before the album's release, band leader Tuomas Holopainen said in an interview that the album would have a lot in common with the previous album Once. For example, the band have kept the new kind of heavier songs, such as 'Master Passion Greed', 'Whoever Brings the Night', '7 Days to the Wolves', and 'Bye Bye Beautiful', but additionally there are softer ballads, such as 'Meadows of Heaven', 'Eva', and 'The Islander'. This album includes lots of guest musicians and orchestral parts, just like Once, but with a bigger level.

Just like the album Once, Nightwish included many new influences and experimentations in several tracks. On Once, much inspiration came from Native American music, especially 'Creek Mary's Blood', which featured Lakota Indian musician John Two-Hawks. However, on Dark Passion Play, much inspiration comes from Finnish and Irish culture and music, which can be clearly heard on 'Last of the Wilds'. Songs like 'Master Passion Greed' and 'Cadence of Her Last Breath' included thrash metal and alternative metal elements as well, displaying the newer, more modern sound of the band. In a later interview, Hietela said the band 'didn't get as far with it [the song] as we wanted to when we recorded the song in the studio – we wanted it to be a little bit more impressive'.^[11]

Holopainen also said that there are darker pieces reminiscent of the album Century Child, such as 'The Poet and the Pendulum', and some others. It will be a dark album, both musically and lyrically. Even though the album is much more upbeat than Century Child. Songs that reflect this mood are for example the second single 'Amaranth' and 'Bye Bye Beautiful's B-side 'Escapist.'

Reception[edit]

The album has sold more than 130,000 copies in Finland to date, placing 26th on the list of best-selling Finnish albums ever released,^[19] which has granted it a platinum certification four times. Worldwide, it has sold over 700,000 copies by the end of 2007 and about 2 million copies to date.^[20][21] It has been certified as Platinum in Germany^[22] and Hungary,^[23] and Gold in Austria,^[24] Poland,^[25] Sweden^[26] and Switzerland;^[27] Dark Passion Play is also the most successful Nightwish album in UK and USA^[28] with sales in the United States of over 134,000 copies.^[29]

As of January 2008, the album has topped the album charts in six countries; the singles, 'Amaranth' and 'Erämaan Viimeinen' have both reached the first position on Finnish charts.^[30] According to Last.fm, 'Dark Passion Play' is their most played album, and its successful single 'Amaranth' has as of February 2009 been holding the position of most played song since its release.^[30]

The album was also critically acclaimed in most reviews. Allmusic called the album a 'sort of opera aria' and praised 'Bye Bye Beautiful', on a track pic and 'Eva', that they say it focus on the new vocalist vocal abilities.^[1]

The album was also given a positive review by Blabbermouth's Keith Bergman, who gave the album a 7.5 out of 10 and stated that it 'may not be a masterpiece throughout, but it's got enough moments of symphonic metal bliss to warrant a high recommendation.^[13]About.com writer, Chad Bowar, gave the album a score of 4 out of 5 stars, calling Dark Passion Play 'an excellent album that's right up there with the best the band has done.'^[12]

In any case, it got us thinking about the whole culture of director's cuts—the instances in which they've redressed a terrible injustice that was done to a butchered masterpiece, the instances in which their version is the one doing the butchering, and all points in between. Well, it's because we, like many enthusiastic cineastes have a hankering to get the 'definitive' experience of a film, and in these auteurist times that tends to be the one upon which the director sets his or her seal of approval. His preferred version is not a years-later revisitation timed to coincide with some anniversary or a new Blu-ray reissue, however that is the route often taken by directors who've always had a niggling desire to revisit their past compromises. Von Trier is just the latest in a long line of directors who've taken issue with the theatrical cut of their film to the tune of retooling a version more in line with their original vision.

Legacy[edit]

In 2016, an article by Teamrock considers Dark Passion Play as one of the 'best albums of this century', ranking it at number 60 on their countdown of the '21st century's greatest albums'. ^[31]

Back in November, 2014, the NHL hockey team Minnesota Wild featured the album's first track The Poet and the Pendulum in their season trailer. ^[32]

The instrumental version of Whoever Brings the Night was featured in a 2011 puzzle-platformervideo game, LittleBigPlanet 2. ^{[33][circular reference]}Windows 2000 multi language pack download.

Promotion[edit]

To promote the release of the album, Nightwish played the Dark Passion Play World Tour, that took place from 2007 to 2009.

On 22 September 2007, the band hosted a secret concert at Rock Café in Tallinn, Estonia, disguising itself as a Nightwish cover band called 'Nachtwasser'.^[34] Their first official concert with the new singer was in Tel Aviv, Israel on 6 October 2007.^[35] The Dark Passion Play tour thus started, visiting the United States, Canada, most of Europe, Asia, and Australia.^[36][37] In 2008, the band played over 100 shows, with dates in Oceania, Europe and Asia. In November, the band played in South America, and before this leg they took a three-month break; Nightwish began the third leg in 2009, with dates in North America and Europe, and also playing in several summer metal festivals, including Graspop Metal Meeting and Masters of Rock. The last show was played in Helsinki, Finland, in front of 10,000 fans.^[8]

The support bands were changing throughout the tour. The frequent acts were the Finnish pop rock female group Indica, Swedish metal band Sonic Syndicate and the Swedish industrial metal band Pain. The USA tour was supported by Gothic metal band Paradise Lost.^[38] In the last concert, the opening band was the Finnish act Apocalyptica. On 11 March 2009, was released an EP/DVD, Made in Hong Kong, with 8 live tracks recorded during the tour in various concerts; the DVD contains three music videos as well as a documentary featuring material from Israel to South America, directed by Ville Lipiäinen.^[8]

Von Trier is just the latest in a long line of directors who've taken issue with the theatrical cut of their film to the tune of retooling a version more in line with their original vision.

Legacy[edit]

In 2016, an article by Teamrock considers Dark Passion Play as one of the 'best albums of this century', ranking it at number 60 on their countdown of the '21st century's greatest albums'. ^[31]

Back in November, 2014, the NHL hockey team Minnesota Wild featured the album's first track The Poet and the Pendulum in their season trailer. ^[32]

Promotion[edit]

To promote the release of the album, Nightwish played the Dark Passion Play World Tour, that took place from 2007 to 2009.

On 22 September 2007, the band hosted a secret concert at Rock Café in Tallinn, Estonia, disguising itself as a Nightwish cover band called 'Nachtwasser'.^[34] Their first official concert with the new singer was in Tel Aviv, Israel on 6 October 2007.^[35] The Dark Passion Play tour thus started, visiting the United States, Canada, most of Europe, Asia, and Australia.^[36][37] In 2008, the band played over 100 shows, with dates in Oceania, Europe and Asia. In November, the band played in South America, and before this leg they took a three-month break; Nightwish began the third leg in 2009, with dates in North America and Europe, and also playing in several summer metal festivals, including Graspop Metal Meeting and Masters of Rock. The last show was played in Helsinki, Finland, in front of 10,000 fans.^[8]

The support bands were changing throughout the tour. The frequent acts were the Finnish pop rock female group Indica, Swedish metal band Sonic Syndicate and the Swedish industrial metal band Pain. The USA tour was supported by Gothic metal band Paradise Lost.^[38] In the last concert, the opening band was the Finnish act Apocalyptica. On 11 March 2009, was released an EP/DVD, Made in Hong Kong, with 8 live tracks recorded during the tour in various concerts; the DVD contains three music videos as well as a documentary featuring material from Israel to South America, directed by Ville Lipiäinen.^[8]
