Honestly, I think this is the first thing I've heard by Tobias Sammet that I actually quite enjoyed.

Damn, you almost never hear him pull out vibrato like that. Sounds great. Nice to hear another side of his voice.

Pretty Woman(1990) I was forced to watch this movie for the second time (first was in 1990) in an uncle/aunt visit and noticed some things that are not typical of a light-romantic movie. First, the too much obvious suggestion of a porn movie facial. Then, the scene in which Julia Roberts and Richar...

Hard to make some of those things out, but here are the differences I hear: There's no escape And there's no return The blood it's (?) behind us [(?) sounds kind of like "both" to me. I think it's a "b" word.] It's the (?) of sight [Actually sounds like "It's the world I've (signed?)" to me, even th...

God, Felipe Machado is such a bad artist. His art looks like it was made by a college freshman who just discovered that blending modes exist in Photoshop.

That documentary would have been cool though.

The Bard appears yet again!. Quick, how's my hair look?

You don’t wanna know my playtime! 😉 But for example, when World of Warcraft was released, I set my alarmclock, slept 3 hours and played 21hours every day for more than 3 month in a row! Ok you can discount 20 minutes for the pizza service of course. ;))) I think we just learned why it takes so long...

1990 - I Guerrieri Del Bronx (1982) I didn't understand the conversations because it hadn't subtitles. I read that the plot is a copy of a Shakespeare tragedy named Troillo and Kressyda.

World Mythology in Bite-Sized Chunks - Mark Daniels

Wednesday is Odin-day. Surprising discovery.

Good ol' Wodan.

But yes: Moon's day, Tyr's day, Odin's day, Thor's day, Frigg's day, Saturn's day, Sun's day. Bit of a language mix, really.

I haven't checked the forum in a while, and holy shit. That was almost 3000 spam posts. If you can delete all posts by a user, I'm not aware of how, but mods can delete an entire 50-topic page at a time.

And thus have I reclaimed The Coffee Shop at last, after many months of occupation.

And then like magic the OP transformed into Vietnamese spam for watches and had to be removed. Huh.

I'm going to violate the topic title and just list them all, since I just ran through their discog again for the first time in years. Nightfall in Middle-Earth - While the top 3 are all close for me, I think this album still edges (no pun intended) out my no. 2. Great songs, great melodies, pacing, ...

Oh good, turns out it was just the headphones I was using. Guess they don't really produce frequencies that high. Turns out the beep is just as horrible as I remember.

You know what's even worse than the beep in Curse My Name? Hearing it clearly enough in 2010 that that part of the song was nearly unlistenable, and then re-ripping the song 7 years later and realizing you're not sure if you're even hearing it at all. :cry: :cry: Apparently I've managed to kill the ...

Cool interview. Some interesting questions about Marcus' past. I bet his parents feel good about supporting him and letting him take that time off to record albums, since 30 years later he's still at it.

Sorry for double Post, Nuclear Blast told me, that they do not know about the locations. BUT the colleages from the production did forward the request directly to the band. This means, it's up to the bards to answer (or not) ;-) I wouldn't count on it. I just read an interview with Marcus where the...

Oh, I mean to say, he is legitimately hitting the note in this recording. In some live bootlegs I've heard, it sounds ... off? Heady, falsetto-y. Whereas this one sounds like it's coming from his chest. I'm terrible at describing things Suffice to say he sounds as good or better than he did on Live...

The mixing seems more solid on the actual album and the backing vocals do seem more noticeable, oddly on some songs way more than others. Could be overdubs. Wheel of Time sounds absolutely incredible, to my surprise somewhat. Another highlight: no awkward falsetto during Tanelorn. Somehow. That's k...

I'll post this interview/trailer here, on the small chance that there is a person who comes here but isn't connected to BG's Facebook page.

The recordings themselves sound good, but yeah, the lack of crowd noise has been rather disappointing, especially in comparison to Live.

What I can tell you about the concept is to a certain extent it is connected to the Czech Republic, so it will play an essential role I the story telling as well. It's going to be a fictional story connected to history too. Does this mean that the collaboration with Markus Heitz is off? Have I miss...

Here ya go! http://www.truemetal.it/news/intervista-blind-guardian-marcus-siepen-90490-p2 Sounds good! I can still hope to hear live versions of Holy Grail, Curse of Feanor, and Miracle Machine some day! And they've actually recorded most of the music for the OP, so them saying it'll come out 2018/...

Ask them about the orchestral project, pleaseee 😀 I should be able to publish the interview next week (Nuclear Blast asked us to publish it not earlier than the last week of June), there are some interesting info on the orchestral album :mrgreen: As soon as it'll be online I'll post the link here ;...

So, tell me, what songs would be on a new live album that haven't been on previous live albums or DVDs? Keep in mind that some songs have never been played live at all, so those don't count. I'd say that we're a very atypical crowd since we own everything and enjoy hearing "different" songs than th...

Nope. I'm just going to sit around being sad that things like this and The Theater Equation never happen in the US.

"Fly" is from Warsaw and "Imaginations from the Other Side" is from Hamburg. :wink: Need to listen to all three CDs again to find out more. :roll: Any chance you could talk the band into releasing less-played songs that aren't on the album online as part of a media campaign for the live album? :win...

The lack of Curse of Feanor is really disappointing. As is the general lack of songs they haven't had on a live album before. I love Blind Guardian, but why are they so obsessed with releasing the same songs over and over?

Run the Jewels - RTJ3

Killer Mike and El-P nailing it again

I'll do you one better. The English edition has the story section too, so I took pics of the pages for you.

blindgfan wrote:That's pretty disappointing. My only hope is they will play Journey through the dark or Traveller in Time instead of Holy Grail.

Really? I would have loved to have seen Holy Grail live. And they're already playing all of Imaginations, why add in more old material?

I got 5/6, but this just confirms my opinion that it doesn't really matter. If I weren't really paying close attention, I think the first voice only track is the only one I'd really notice. Funny you picked that out as one of the most difficult. The moment the uncompressed one started I was positive...

Now be fair, I'm sure they'll spread IFTOS songs out across both discs.

I feel like half the discussions on this board now are about whether At the Edge of Time is fantastic or terrible. :P I've listened to it probably 30 times or so by now, and still think it's incredibly overrated by people on this forum (don't know about listeners overall). I finally decided it's act...

I can't imagine what it would be if I was a really old BG fan and I had to wait about this album... thanks, God, I'm not... It's not so bad. I'm pretty sure they've been planning it since I started listening, and that's probably almost exactly 9 years now. About half the time since they first conce...

From interviews with Hansi when BtRM was coming out

Did the Bard's never have a story that spanned multiple songs and albums (like Sonata's Caleb saga for example)? I would kind of expect them to do such a thing, somehow :O Yep, and an entire album even. :P Imaginations from the Other Side/Bright Eyes/And the Story Ends/all of Beyond the Red Mirror

If I get another show on this tour, the live album, the orchestral album, and another regular album by 2020, I'll call it a good deal whatever the finer details of that schedule are.

I'm shocked. And they played ATTWS before that, and then IFTOS right after? That takes some endurance, especially so late in the tour! Just one more reason Blind Guardian is the best band in the world. I was surprised they brought back ATTWS so late in the US tour, on just the last few tour dates. ...

WHAT THE FUCK THEY PLAYED CURSE OF FEANOR. ATLANTA IS MY MORTAL ENEMY NOW

Your setlist is spot on, except that Imaginations was played at the end of the first set. What a unique night it was! I guess the Bards wanted to say "thank you" for spending our Halloween with them. Turns out Hansi is not elvish, but is in fact Elvis! I still can't believe they played the whole se...

Hmm, I never posted here before. I'm going to have to put some songs into parentheses for some, because they're just too close to be certain.

It's definitely in my top half for ATITM. Love the solo.
