21 MAR 2023 · In our second episode, we're chatting to Xandria vocalist and Nightwish superfan Ambre Vourvahis! It's also a good time to share my experience seeing Tarja live as we discuss the difficult Oceanborn sessions and ponder whether it's odd for her to still be performing Nightwish songs in her solo sets. Instagram and Twitter: PodcastPendulum Preorder Nightwish On Track - Every Album, Every Song by Simon McMurdo https://ko-fi.com/podcastpendulum Check out Xandria's site for tour dates and the new album: https://www.xandria.de/ Hosted and created by Simon Edward McMurdo Special Guest: Ambre Vourvahis Fan Jury: Dan Kumar, Chaz Paice and Renata Cervantes Artwork by Matt Foulkes Music: Orphanage Airlines (Intro)

15 JUN 2022 · Who's there knocking at my window with that owl? Phew! Sorry for the delay, hopefully this episode's epic tune (and thematic staple) makes up for it. We'll be flitting through the entire catalogue for references to the titular Dead Boy and maybe even get a nice silver lining to end our season on. Dead boy's alive, y'all!

6 APR 2022 · Are you ready for ascension, my child? This week we're diving deep into Tuomas' idea of utopia. Is it nostalgic? Ofcourse. A return to innocence? You bet. Did it feature on a live DVD recorded at their massive final show of the Dark Passion Play tour? Sadly not.
