XANDRIA - Nightfall (Official Video) | Napalm Records

EP “Universal Tales” – OUT NOW!

Following the release of the universally praised predecessor "Neverworld's End" and numerous sold-out shows, XANDRIA finally releases the highly anticipated new album "Sacrificium". The very first spin presents the listener with a bombastic Symphonic Metal masterpiece filled with passion and sweeping vocal lines. The new vocalist Dianne van Giersbergen delivers a breathtaking performance and gives each and every song on the album the right character and mood. The perfectly arranged orchestral parts form the perfect symbiosis with the Metal elements, and are crowned by a crystal-clear production. "Sacrificium" will enthrall the listener with each and every second, and will let XANDRIA's star in the Symphonic Metal sky shine even brighter.

Old Xandria and old Nightwish are like old wine, you can't get enough of drinking and listening.

Xandria's new album "Sacrificium" is out now everywhere! What's your favourite song of the record?

[psychosina]

Her unique style and distinguished voice makes me keep coming back over and over 2023

[ewgenijasich]

Xandria. This song is so underrated!!! Heavy Metal forever in my heart!!!

[MakeMeLo]

I love opera, I love metal.
Makes sense to me to put them together.

[skylermidnightrose]

Some songs are just memorable no matter how long it took you to find them or how long its been since you listened to it. This is one of those songs. I'm really glad I found this band.

[TheShawnRaven]

I simply curse myself for having never listened to power and symphonic metal till this year started.

Now...we got this? A gothic fashion dressed siren with ridiculously angelic soprano vocals and a band with a musical vibe reminiscent of Kamelot and Nightwish...

Oh yeah, did I mention multiple eargasms? Every fifteen seconds I feel like my ears is gonna explode from the sheer epicness of Dianne's vocals of this war track, plus Marco and Philip's awesome guitar skills, and let's not forget Steven on the bass and Gerit on the drums!

Yup, count me in the legion of Xandria fans, starting today...

Oh that's right, gotta listen to Fire and Ashes EP as well, plus the older albums...with different female vocalists! :)

Dianne! I love you! TAKE ME FOR I AM NOT :) <3 <3 <3 <3

Dianne is truly one of the nicest and most genuine people I’ve ever had the chance to talk with. Her voice is amazing, and mesmerizing. A very beautiful woman and an awesome person.

Dear Dianne and band, greetings from California! Being a metal fan for 30 years and your typical 9-to-6 corporate guy in America, I won't forgive myself for not having discovered your band earlier! While listening to iHeartRadio in my office, Xandria came up through my custom radio and as soon as I heard it, I ordered Sacrificium and Neverworld’s End (I REFUSE to download piracy as I truly respect real musical talent!). Sacrificium has brought tears to my eyes and made my days in my office more enjoyable when I'm dealing with corporate pressure and deadlines. Don't ever give up -- you're one of the most talented bands on this planet, and Dianne is a gift from to God to this band (incredible voice, charismatic image, beautiful melodies, etc.) You just earned a fan for life!

Here it comes, the story of mankind´s final glory
Into the nightfall
The showdown now has come, this will be the last curtain
Before the Night falls
In a desert burning children´s faces turning
Into another enemy in war
Icy winds are blowing over bodies piling high
There´s no place left for more
Oh save me from sharing this hell
Oh save me from my blame
Here it comes, the story of mankind´s final glory
Into the nightfall
The showdown now has come, this will be the last curtain
Before the Night falls
We are worshiping the gods
That keep twisting our thoughts
Everyday a new sensation
While a million creatures
See their soil turning to dust
Hrimata Eleison
Oh save me from sharing this hell
Oh save me from my blame
Here it comes, the story of mankind´s final glory
Into the nightfall
The showdown now has come, this will be the last curtain
Before the Night falls
Forever and ever
You hear them crying
Forever and ever
This world is dying
We had too much time to understand
Here it comes, the story of mankind´s final glory
Into the nightfall
The showdown now has come, this will be the last curtain
Before the Night falls
We are rising higher, closer to the fire
Let the final dance begin

Diana is a monumental woman with an angelic voice, it is luck and happiness for fans that this wonderful beauty sings for us as part of a metal rock group and does not vegetate in some kind of opera house

[TheBlackerMetal]

En mi opinión, ella es la mejor vocalista que tuvo la banda, una mujer que fácilmente pudo estar a la altura de Simone Simons y Tarja Turunen, dentro del Metal Sinfónico, tremenda voz! Y es una lástima que se haya ido del grupo...

Es verdad que tiene un proyecto en solitario, pero solo sube videos cuando tiene tiempo, no es muy activa con su canal de Youtube
Gran vocalista!
Gracias Dianne!!!
Por regalarnos tu hermosa voz!!!

[investforfun]

Dianne is absolutely spectacular!! Want to hear more of her beautiful vocals.

[paxifixilexy]

Just discovered this band today, I feel like I've been looking for them my whole life. Just amazing 😍

[Ravenwind]

Symphonic metal queens - why are they always so shockingly beautiful?

[jonathancain]

Metal ain't just music, it's the key to live your life and enjoy it to the fullest

[astrodomelife]

xandria glory days when lisa, Manualla and then Dianne is part of it. RIP xandria. you will be remembered as a band that pressured all vocalist since dawn of time.

[PaladinsFury]

The singer for this band knows what it means to front a metal band. too many singers overdo it try to "be metal" and come off as fake. She lets the song do the talking and adds to the atmosphere with her gestures while giving her voice the space it needs.

[mirandalawson]

I don't care how old this song is it will never stop be amazing
