Endless Forms Most Beautiful Is The Eighth Album By Finnish Symphonic Power Metal Band Nightwish. It Was Released On March 27 2015 In The EU And Argentina And Will Be Released On March 30 In The UK And On March 31 In The USA. It Is The Band's First Album With New Singer Floor Jansen As Well As The First To Feature Troy Donockley Who Played Uillean Pipes And Various Other Instruments On Dark Passion Play And Imaginaerum As A Full-Time Member. The Album Was Primarily Inspired By The Work Of Naturalist Charles Darwin. According To Nightwish's Main Songwriter Tuomas Holopainen The Album Found Its Main Inspiration From A Famous Quote From Darwin's 1859 Highly Influential Book On The Origin Of Species. This Quote Included The Words "endless Forms Most Beautiful" Used By Darwin To Describe The Evolution From One Common Ancestor To All Living Organisms That Were Subsequently Chosen As The Title Of The Album. Tuomas Said He Would Like Fans To Listen To The Album From Beginning To The End Like They Do When They Watch A Movie Instead Of Listening To Songs On A Random Basis. He Also Said There Is A "very Loose" Concept In The Album "It's All About Beauty Of Life The Beauty Of Existence Nature Science". Comparing It With Imaginaerum He Said "The Previous Album Was A Tribute To The Power Of Imagination. Endless Forms Most Beautiful Would Be An Equal Tribute To Science And The Power Of Reason".
