Frisson Noir is Tarja's first new album of studio material in seven years, since 2019's In The Raw. The album mixes her trademark operatic vocal with some of the proggiest material she's created - look no further than the ten-minute epic At Sea - along with some the heaviest symphonic prog metal of her career. The album also features guest appearances from her former Nightwish pal Marko Hietala, Apocalyptica, Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith and Dani Filth.
“When I’m writing the songs, I’m not really looking at the timer, I’m really letting myself go nowadays, which is a very beautiful feeling," Tarja tells Prog in the next issue, which is on sale on June 19.
