My very first band was Within Temptation, then I discovered Nightwish, which became my favourite band. When Tarja left, replaced by Anette, I lost some interest in that band. I begann to favour Hammerfall alongside Epica and Within Temptation. When Floor took the stage with Nightwish, I was overwhelmed. Today my favourite band is Nightwish again.

Curious as to the criteria or measures used to assess rank. Number of record sales, social media fans, concert ticket sales or a combination of a number criteria. I’m surprised that Therion topped bands like Nightwish, WT and Kamelot in this list which leads me to think the ranking is entirely subjective. Which is OK too.
