Nightwish have released a live video showcasing their track Devil And The Deep Dark Ocean.

The song, which originally appeared on the band’s second album Oceanborn, will be included on Decades: Live In Buenos Aires – out on December 6 through Nuclear Blast.

The performance was captured at the Argentinian city’s Estadio Malvinas on September 30, 2018, and the package will be released on 2CD Digipak, 3LP, Blu-ray Digibook and BluRay/2CD.

It'll contain a selection of classic cuts from Nightwish’s back catalogue, including End Of All Hope, Ghost Love Score, Élan, Nemo, Wish I had An Angel, Sacrament Of Wilderness, Elvenpath, and Dead Boy’s Poem.

Keyboardist Tuomas Holopainen said: “I didn’t just want to pick out the most successful Nightwish songs for this tour. Instead, I asked myself which songs I would play to somebody who had never heard of our band. 

“At some point during the preparation process, I realised that I was smiling all the time. I remembered the curious, innocent boy writing all of these songs.”

Earlier this week, Nightwish revealed their plans to tour across Europe in late 2020. The band announced a run of 17 shows, kicking off at Oslo’s Spektrum on November 16 and wrapping up with a performance at London’s SSE Arena Wembley on December 18.

Nightwish will be joined by special guests Turmion Kätilöt, with the dates part of a planned world tour.

The band are expected to be release their new studio album in 2020 which will be their first since 2015’s Endless Forms Most Beautiful.
