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 insanely majestic and ultimately ambitious grandiose metal compositions, featuring piercing and very memorable harmonies within the energetic musical flow, massively orchestrated with ceremonial 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 agenda this exceptional opus sounds very impressive and takes the audience by storm!; recent deluxe double digipak edition includes both the original version of the recording, and remixed plus remastered update courtesy by Charlie Bauerfeind, with addition of two pre-production mixes never issued before
