Nightwish have released a new single, An Ocean of Strange Islands.
The nearly 10-minute epic track will appear on the Finnish symphonic prog-metallers' new album, 'Yesterwynde', which is set to arrive on September 20. The band's main songwriter and keyboardist Tuomas Holopainen said:
"The song 'An Ocean Of Strange Islands' gives you sheer heaviness with its massive guitars, epic orchestrations and phenomenal vocals by Floor Jansen. Classic NIGHTWISH at its best! 'An Ocean Of Strange Islands' takes us on the ultimate musical island-hopping adventure, reminding the adventurer that happiness is most joyous when shared."
The first single, Perfume Of The Timeless, came out in April alongside details of the record, and the second, The Day Of..., followed in August.
