End of Innocence

Rating:
Summary: Very Informative
Review: Be warned all ye Tarja lovers. She's not heavily featured in this so if you want it thinking she's all you ever see, that's not what you're going to get. Besides, Tuomas is THE man behind everything.
I picked up the region 0 Limited Edition last year when Nightwish originally released this DVD. If you're a huge Nightwish fan, it's a must buy. Chronicles the history of the band with its ups and downs in an interview with Tuomas and Jukka. Lots of behind the scene footage included. You finally get to see just how much this band parties. Also some very nice footage of the area Tuomas grew up in as that's where the documentary was filmed.
Everything is in Finnish with English subtitles.

As a bonus you also get the End Of All Hope and Over the Hill and Far Away videos. Two seperate live concerts with one in 5.1 sound, and a maze of a photogallery that has a trick in getting to see every photo they include.

Summary: The Life of Nightwish
Review: I have been a Nightwish fan for a while now and I never got a chance to get my hands on the DVD, they're rare in stores. This documentary really wakes you up to the life of Nightwish, its incredible how a small band from Kitee, Finland erupted into such a great band. Like any other music group, they face hardships and other problems. Tuomas shows his feelings about his lost friendship with Sami Vanska, who was replaced by Marco Hietala. This film reveals the rock-star life of Nightwish and their life outside of the band. There is tons of live footage, which includes some of their earlier gigs. The DVD also has many features such as 2 music videos, 2 sets of live shows, and a pointless photo slideshow. Even if you are new to Nightwish, this is must have. The music is unmistakably beautiful and the sound is great.

Summary: Good songs, terrible sound
Review: The sound quality in one of the concerts is terrible to say the least. Half of the audio tracks are probably recorded with a monophonic voice recorder - at least they sound like this.

The band history (narrated in Finnish if I'm not mistaken) is boring. Would've put one star, but I like Nightwish and hope that their new DVD would be mastered by professionals.
