The band planned to tour but it was difficult to bring to life due to Tarja's study. Though the critical reviews were not homogeneous, Nightwish were an undoubted success in Finland. The first one, Angels Fall First, was released in the same year. The band signed to the Spinefarm Records for two albums.
In the beginning of 1997 their line-up was finished by drummer Jukka Nevalainen. Nightwish recorded a demo and sent it to different studios. Finally they found the solution: changed the acoustic guitar for the electric one and started playing power metal. The problem was that the classical operal voice of their vocalist Tarja Turunen was too powerful for acoustic music.
Nightwish was formed by keyboardist Tuomas Holopainen in a small town of Kitee in Finland as the embodiment of his idea - a band, playing camp songs that can be ususally heard in the forest near the fire.
