Nightwish has started to undertake efforts to begin work on their new album:
"[The] band will lock themselves at the studio where they'll spend about a month practicing and arranging the songs for the new album. They've planned of getting 13 new songs and 1 cover ready to be recorded in Finnvox and [their own] Caverock studios. There will be studio-diary released from the studio-session on [the band's homepage]."
Look a expected release on Spinefarm around June next year.
