Oh, wow. So they dismissed her just like that?! sad That's so sad!
It wasn't really "just like that". Tarja had a thing going on that she was the center of attention and the only reason Nightwish is Nightwish is because of Tarja. This apparently was also spurned on by her husband/manager. So, as a result, Tuomas and the rest of the band said "we're tired of this crap", and dismissed her, saying that they were Nightwish because of the music, and that the music wasn't going to have the same effect with her current view towards it all.
Oh, and on topic, I'm listening to the Silversun Pickups' new album Swoon, which positively rocks. It's like their first album, but then they started to actually try some new and crazy things, and it all works wonders.
