Description:

Annette Olzon, currently active as a singer in THE DARK ELEMENT and other bands, is back with her second solo album, three years after her last album. Fans may be familiar with Annette's tenure in the symphonic metal band NIGHTWISH, but her debut solo album "Shine," released after she left NIGHTWISH, focused on her softer, pop-oriented side, and showed her wide range of expression. It was an album that showed her wide range of expression. She has since worked with bands such as THE DARK ELEMENT with former SONATA ARCTICA and current INSOMNIUM member Janni Rimatainen, and ALLEN/OLZON with singer Russell Allen of SYMPHONY X. In 2021, her second solo album "Strong" was released. Her second solo album "Strong" was released in 2021, and as the title suggests, it focused on her strong singing ability, which was a change from the softer style of her previous album. For this latest album, she teamed up with renowned songwriter/producer Magnus Carlson, as in the previous album.Furthering the "Strong" line of the previous album, the band succeeded in producing diversity in color by adding an aggressive element to the symphonic metal and power metal elements, with her husband, Johan Huesgaffewell, in charge of growls. In addition, Jacob Hansen continued the mixing and mastering of the previous album, and the sound production of this album is also flawless.
