'10th man down' by Nightwish

Powerful song; powerful anti-war message; amazing band. Not much else to say here about the video.

It's kind of sad that I hadn't really gotten into Nightwish until after I came back to the United States - they occupy a space which allows them a good deal of freedom in terms of sound, a freedom which they use to wonderful effect, whether in short and pointed songs like this one or longer, more subtle and complex pieces like 'The Poet and the Pendulum'. Regardless, rare among metal bands is that they sacrifice raw sound to play around with the classical elements, which makes them fun to listen to.
