BLIND GUARDIAN

Release Year: 2018
Artist Origin: GER
Style: epic orchestral power heavy metal

pure classic considered, highly epic and quite monumental concept album number seven [2002] was in writing stages for over two years - it features highly majestic and ultimately ambitious metal compositions, featuring piercing and very memorable harmonies within the energetic musical flow, massively orchestrated with choirs and rounded up by stellar, bombastic production that makes this triumphant sound even more complex, so regardless of moving away from plain heavy/power metal genre this opus sounds impressive and takes the audience by storm!; recent gatefold sleeve double black vinyl edition comes with sound remixed in 2012 and remastered in 2018, plus pro-printed lyric insert and two pre-production mixes never issued before as bonus
