Nightwish have released a lyric video for their new single Harvest.
It’s the latest material lifted from the band’s upcoming album Human. :II: Nature., which is set to arrive on April 10 through Nuclear Blast.
Harvest also features lead vocals from Troy Donockley, with Nightwish previously sharing the song Noise from the follow-up to 2015’s Endless Forms Most Beautiful.
Check it out below.
The Finnish outfit are the cover stars of the latest issue of Metal Hammer magazine, where they delve into their epic new double album.
Nightwish leader Tuomas Holopainen tells the magazine: “When we finished Endless Forms Most Beautiful, for me it was like eating a really good meal but still being a bit hungry.
“I felt it was such an important and inspiring subject matter that we needed to do another album. It’s about human, it’s about nature and it’s about human nature. There’s a little word play there.
“The first nine tracks are somehow related to the human. Human facing death. Human empathy. Or stories about being human, sung with a human voice.”
As previously announced, Nightwish will head out on tour across Europe later this year – a run of 17 shows that will kick off at Oslo’s Spektrum on November 16 and conclude with a performance at London’s SSE Arena Wembley on December 18.
