Former Nightwish vocalist Anette Olzon (also partner of Jani Liimatainen in The Dark Element) is set to release her third solo album entitled “Rapture”. 

Similarly to Anette's second solo album “Strong,” the new release explores a much heavier and faster musical offering compared to her debut and once again stakes a claim for Anette’s well-deserved standing as one of the world's top female metal vocalists! 

Once again the music for "Rapture" was written and composed together with acclaimed Swedish guitarist and producer Magnus Karlsson. Together, Anette and Magnus managed to create an outstanding collection of songs, which showcase Anette’s enormous vocal range alongside Karlsson’s incendiary riffs. The growls, performed by Johan Husgafvel add some wonderful flavor to the sound, teased at first before taking their own spot in the limelight.  

Musically while we are in a territory encompassing various genres from the symphonic to the melodic power metal and a dash of melo-death, the songs remain catchy and boldly melodic. Coupled with Olzon's best and most versatile vocal display to date, “Rapture” is an album that masters the borders between heaviness and hookiness, all while showing an artist who doesn't rest on her laurels, but heads boldly into the future. 

Like every winning team that does not change, "Rapture" is once again mixed by Jacob Hansen (Pretty Maids, Volbeat, The Dark Element, etc.).
