In the new issue of German magazine Rock it there's a short review of the remastered albums.
The most interesting thing is that they say that ALL albums will be re-issued on vinyl next. I hope this is true!!!

Was at the show in Hamburg yesterday and was really impressed.
After "Tanelorn" we all screamed for "Majesty" and they really played it right away.
Thought that was pretty cool of them.

For me it was "Blood tears", helping me through some difficult times.
I still get goosebumps everytime I listen to it, especially when the drums come in right before the chorus.
Another song I've never had the pleasure of hearing live unfortunately.
