Floor Jansen Had 'Complete Breakdown'

05/22/2014
. (Prog) Nightwish and Revamp singer Floor Jansen has recalled the nervous breakdown that left her "unable to do anything." She reveals she's has had to change her attitude towards work to prevent any further stress-related problems. And she says she can't always find the energy to engage with fans after shows, as much as she'd like to.

Revamp released their second album Wild Card in 2013, featuring three tracks reflecting on her 2011 downtime due to burnout. Jansen tells The Great Southern Brainfart: "It wasn't just a moment of not feeling well or not having energy. It was a complete breakdown. I was literally unable to do anything - I couldn't even go grocery shopping or to a mall. Any kind of big spaces, loud noises, places like that.

"This wasn't something that was there for a month; this is something that happened over a year. I think everyone has this happen in their own way, and the only way to come out of it is to acknowledge it. I personally ignored it way too long which is why it took so long to get so deep. It's a scary thing." more on this story
