The bad news is <strong>Holopainen<\/strong> has no idea. The good news is that <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/metalinjection.net\/tag\/nightwish\">Nightwish<\/a><\/strong> recently signed a new deal with Nuclear Blast, so at least we&#8217;ll be getting new music from the band!

We just signed a multi-album deal with Nuclear Blast, so that is evidence there are going to be more albums in future. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/metalinjection.net\/tag\/nightwish\">Nightwish<\/a><\/strong> are definitely not going to stop, so everybody stop worrying.
