When I was in elementary my bus driver always blasted Blind Guardian, good memories 😌
nice, the kids are learning academics in school and they're learning good music taste on the way to and from school
Cool. Ours just screeched a lot bc half the bus were gifted kids and half were mentally challenged. So it was a bit of a circus... 😯
Sounds like a great Bus Driver Homie GEO 69 TV
Night Time Here in Aegyptian Valhalla Iced Earth ÆSIR OSIRIS and Khnum xxxooo thanks ZTE model ZTE Blade runner and I am worthy of being a great true your heavenly father's name Mr George Jakob Holyoake l love you Allah Odin Loki
@@allisonmackay3818 goofy ahh short bus activities
The Sindar elves have decided to play metal, and here it is.
Anders Midnatt Noldor elves, because they are more badass.
4ndr3c3s4r1n0 LOL, They are Eldar anyway...
Jean-Luc Cypher All the Noldor and Sindar are Eldar, so Adriano is still correct.
The Eldar who saw Valinor, and the light of the Two Trees, are: Vanyar, Noldor and some of the Teleri.
if elves play it, then the Gunslinger sings it :"'))

このアルバムは本当に素晴らしい!!
まるでダークファンタジーの映画を見ているようです!
特にSomewhere far beyondが一番のお気に入りです!
This album is really great! !!
It's like watching a dark fantasy movie!
Especially Somewhere far beyond is my favorite!
One of most divine recordings ever made, no doubt!
Back when Power metal wasn't just Power metal, it was always Power/Speed. Good times
+Bassam Al-Haddad yeah a lot of power metal bands today suck
+Bassam Al-Haddad Not really, there was plenty of power/thrash and bit of power/prog back then as well.
+Quem Official a lot of music sucks today power metal definitely changed but blind guardian is one of the greats though in my opinion
Grubby Canine i agree too.
Now the majority of the power metal bands from 2000 and up are just plain and cheesy and I think they mostly sound alike.. :/
Masterpiece, one of the best albums of Blind Guardian, greetings from Chile

Their best album in my opinion, and the best power metal album ever recorded.
The best power album, the best speed album is battalion of fear (first album)
i listen it more then 20
fillebeast Imaginations from the other side is a notch better in my opinion
Stefan Hristov hahah 20 is nothing xD
antgeozzz no its 20. nothing is nothing ! ;)
That's how I like Blind Guardian's cover arts: a simple (even childish) yet symbolic drawing, the band logo a little bit blurred, no fucking effects, no fucking photoshop.
And the music speaks for it, and fits perfect to it. That's all.
+Elton Amorim Chagas Weee lose our wayyyyy
Robert Demeter lmao what
ALL religions come from sacred divine plant entheogens that take you millions of times deeper within yourself than ypour blind ego-mind of duality wants to go. Enjoy the following link- jaysongaddis.com/the-ayahuasca-wave/ . And ALL religions say that by only going deep into your darkness far beyond where your blind mind wants go, can you ever find light. After ten Ayahuasca ceremonies will you fully understand the infinite beauty of Blind Guardian songs like " Journey through the dark" and what it all really means,, and songs like "THORN" (dying before you die to meet your Soul in the 5th dimension"), and songs like "Lost in the Twilight Hall" (see all your past lives and see the cosmic universal design of how it interacts with your present life and the true Soul journey and the infinite meanings of what it all means, that your ego- mind is totally oblivious and totally blind to !!), and songs like this one "Quest for Tanelorn" - how who you think you are is all total illusion in your total blindness and total stupidity, , and of course songs like "Punishment divine" (the laws of Nature instead of a God in heaven - which implies separation of the ego-mind separated from Soul and humanity's total blindness to infinite beautiful laws of Nature and the Universe).. and of course songs like Otherland, which show everything you believe in this human society is a total web of lies,
and songs like "Prophecies" by Blind Guardian that explicitly tell you that you must pass through the "RED Doors" of your darkness to find the light, hence why your lower 3 chakras are your ego and darkness, and the root chakra, the lowest chakra is RED (look it up) !! And don't worry, Mother Ayahuasca will take you to those Red doors far beyond the veils and blindness of your mind of thoughts, DEEP within you..
. Do you think it's just a coincidence that every religion on the planet tells you to "Separate from thought", just as the bible says to separate from thought 5 times, symbolizing your silly belief of the physical is who you think you are in your total blindness - Taste - smell, touch, see, hear , in all your lies and you self-deception, your blind ego-mind always and forever in the illusion of time always lying to your-SELF .
All thoughts come from the illusion of time in past or future in the left brain of blindness of the countless lies of the "I" and who you think you are, which are all lies. Hence why Jesus said: If you want to catch fish (wisdom), cast your nets on the RIGHT side of the ship (and ship always meant MIND in the ancient texts), and hence why you see statues of Buddha, shamans, and Shive always raising their right arm up, in total surrender of spirit and infinite truths of Soul in the 5th dimension (God and all that is, is SOUL
Again, just as EVERY religion on the planet says in the scriptures- "ONLY in your darkest darkness can you ever find your light" .. as when you surrender to yoiur pain and all your demons and ALLOW them to devour you, they cannot actually dissolve you. The mind is stupid to fight demons because that is exactly what you become, you become the demonss you fight, as light fight nothing as its infinite self aware, but you have no self-awareness whatsoever as you are always fighting other ideologies by your silly beliefs, and you only believe your beliefs because you have no clue who you are. Because if you knew who you are and met your Soul (God and the universe within you), then there woulds be no use for beliefs of the blind mind) .. as you woul be led by 5th dimension of Soul in everything you do, not the blind duality of the blind mind of the 3rd dimension of the fake physical, as all matter is 99.999999999% empty space, and totally meaningless.
but of course churches never teach to go into your darkness deep within you to keep you in ego blindness, as reaching for the light is what creates all your darkness within.
As all people do all day in the blindness of their ego mind of reflect their own darkness onto others, and they have no clue that it is their own darkness they are seeing in others, as we are all sacred mirrors. The ego mind of thought is the blindest, by far the dumbest, by far the most self-defeating and self hating entity in the entire infinite Universe.
Termites have more consciousness than the human thinking left brain mind. and that is not an exaggeration, that is the absolute truth. As of the infinite worlds of beauty, only humans are stupid enough to destroy themselves (each other) and their own planet at the alarming rate it's happening. There is no dumber and more blind entitiy in the Universe than the blind human mind of thought.
when you meet your soul in the 5th dimension of consciousness, only then will you totally understand that everything I am telling you is true,. Otherwise you will always be a prisoner to your 3rd dimension mind of thought.
If you cannot see God in all, then you cannot see God at all.
Humanity is all about looking outwardly for Truths. That's why humans are fake, incredibly cowardly, unconscious, and lost. God is all about going inwardly for Truths. That's why God is real, incredibly genuine, is infinite Consciousness, and infinitely self-aware.
'' Man is the most insane species, he worships an invisible God and destroys a visible Nature. Totally unaware that the Nature he's destroying is the God he's worshiping. '

Side A
1. Time What Is Time 05:46 Hide lyrics
When the moonchild is crying
And silence has broken
The darkest truth
The things she remembered
Had never been her own
Replicant or human
I know the way to show
What do I see
What will I find
Know the answer inside
It's your last step
Ref.:
Time what is time
I wish I knew how to tell You why
It hurts to know
Aren't we machines
Time what is time
Unlock the door
And see the truth
Then time is time again
Whispering
These dreams were never mine
It's cold inside
It's gone forever
The things he saw
Who can say what's wrong or right
The vision of a free life
His eyes had seen it all
For what
He's asking
The vision, vision, vision
I know it's all a lie
I'll remember his past life
And I'll remember time
What did I see
What have I done
God I knew the answers
When he felt so tired
Ref.:
Time what is time
Come lock the door don't let me in
I am the one Your destiny
Time what is time
Reality - It hurts me so
When time is time again
(Solo)
Look into my eyes
Feel the fear just for a while
I'm a replicant and I love to live
Is it all over now
Only these years
I'll leave but I'm singing
Ref.:
Time what is time
He saw it clearly it's too late
It does not heal but it lets us forget
Time what is time
We'll never know
So don't take care
Then time is time again
Should I forget
The way I feel
God he knows how long I tried
Feel there is no reason to cry
I live my life
In fortune dreams forever
2. Journey Through the Dark 04:48 Hide lyrics
Many songs I've written
About the things I saw
My inner soul's a wasteland
I can't run away from here
Try to find them
All the lost thoughts in my mind
I woke up on a hill
So many times before
Yesterday seems like a dream no more
Frozen memories laughing
They don't let me find the truth
Am I born to be a king
Or a jester of the fools
Ref.:
You're the mystical old bard
on your journey through the dark
Mystical old bard
Your journey through the dark
I can't remember my name
I never knew how to find my home
I can't remember my name
come tell me where will it end
I'm the chosen one
To perform all these things
But not for me
In illusions and reality
I'm on my journey through the dark
I'm on my journey through the dark
Ref.
(Solo)
I can't remember
Will I ever find myself
The distance is growing
My hope has gone away
A flash of light but nothing changes
When will it end
Which part of me remains
Soon I'll be back
On my ferryboat of tales
Where oblivion reigns
It will take all of me
Ref.
3. Black Chamber 00:58 Hide lyrics
I am lost in the black chamber
There's no way to turn back
It takes me down forevermore
And death would be so sweet
I'm possessed by the old creature
Who had planned all
To take my soul
Too late for me
In my hands
It liest I thought
But I failed
Now he's in me
My soul is lost
In his black chamber
I'm gone
4. Theatre of Pain 04:17 Hide lyrics
The giant's lost
And all round him
Destructed for what
They all knew what it meant
But they couldn't change it
Lord they had gone too far
Leave them alone
It's all gone
What is left behind
On a desert we called earth
When the last whale went away
Did they ever see the tears
Don't fear Your last step
From the theatre of pain
And the children will love Your singing
From the sea
The sea is calling
Now we've to leave it
The sea was clear
On the day I was stranded
Answers I'd known
To keep this all alive
But I can't change it
Forever
(Solo)
Now I'm gone
And it seems that life had never existed
So we left the dark and cold
All I left behind are my tears
Don't fear Your last step
From the theatre of pain
And the children will love Your singing
From the sea
The sea is calling
I hear them calling
5. The Quest for Tanelorn 05:57 Hide lyrics
By the ruins he stands
And he's waiting for me
To enter Tanelorn
His paths seems strange
But they're always planned
Seldom he succeeds
About his own fate
He tries to conquer it
Again and again
But at last he's almost
A ruined man
Not a king or God
Who's searching for
A place called Tanelorn
Far beyond your dreams
Ref.:
On our quest for Tanelorn
We lose our way
On our quest for Tanelorn
He's waiting
He's waiting for me
He's waiting
He's waiting for me
[Spiritus sanctus - vita aeterna]
Darkness falling down on me
Darkness - The eternal battle rises
I know the answers
Although they don't exist
I'm just a mortal illusion
Ref.
(Solo)
So I'm his companion
Through space and through time
His eternal servant
He's calling me
So I must leave
To any life
To another world
Far beyond Your dreams
To know the truth
Just for a while
He's longing for a place
Where he can find himself
Deliverance
It could be everywhere
How can he find
He's waiting for me
And for Your Tanelorn
Ref.:
On our quest for Tanelorn
We lose our way
On our quest for Tanelorn
We lose our way
On our quest for Tanelorn
We lose our way
On our quest for Tanelorn
We're left alone
Side B
6. Ashes to Ashes 06:00 Hide lyrics
Taste the poison
Feel that this is life
Hallowed be the game
Of life and innocence
God's waiting for him
Join us at the road to fate
There are no two paths
Feel the pain
Which steps into his life
Agony
He'll be crucified
Death awaits
Knocking at his door
Agony
Leave him
The clock will strike the end
Hell or heaven
Reflect and fade away
Ref.:
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
The life clock strikes and You obey
Like a candle light that fades
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
When the life clock strikes You will obey
Time isn't here to stay
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
the life clock strikes and You obey
A light shows the right way
Morning is whispering in my head
Too late to say goodbye
Too late
The last breath's done
Deliverance at all
he's born to find this end
I am the one
The one who's calling
Obey my call to the cemetary
And don't be afraid
To step into the dark
Be sure that my voice
will take You home
Ref.:
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
The life clock strikes and You obey
Like a candle light that fades
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
When the life clock strikes You will obey
Time isn't here to stay
(Solo)
No hope he'd waited so long
This can't be God's will
He surrendered long ago
There was no real chance
Ashes to ashes and dust will be dust
Ashes to ashes, you all will be dust again
The clock had struck the end
Up to heaven
Reflexions fade away
Ref. (1st)
Taste the poison
Feel that this is life
Hallowed be the game
7. The Bard's Song - In the Forest 03:10 Hide lyrics
Now You all know
The bards and their songs
When hours have gone by
I'll close my eyes
In a world far away
We may meet again
But now hear my song
About the dawn of the night
Let's sing the bards' song
Ref.:
Tomorrow will take us away
Far from home
No one will ever know our names
But the bards' songs will remain
Tomorrow will take it away
The fear of today
It will be gone
Due to our magic songs
There's only one song
Left in my mind
Tales of a brave man
Who lived far from here
Now the bard songs are over
And it's time to leave
Noone should ask You for the name
Of the one
Who tells the story
Ref.:
Tomorrow will take us away
Far from home
Noone will ever know our names
But the bards' songs will remain
Tomorrow all will be known
And You're not alone
So don't be afraid
In the dark and cold
'Cause the bards' songs will remain
They all will remain
In my thoughts and in my dreams
They're always in my mind
These songs of hobbits, dwarves and men
And elves
Come close Your eyes
You can see them, too
8. The Bard's Song - The Hobbit 03:54 Hide lyrics
Out in the distance
There's so much gold
The treasure that I've found
Is more than enough
Far to be the hill we've to go
Over the mountain and seas
To the old hill
Where the old dragon sleeps
Blind in the dark dungeon's night
So God please take me away from here
And Gollum shows the way right out
I'm alive
(Solo)
The dying dragon brought trouble and pain
And horror to the halls of stone
I'll take the mighty stone
And leave the dwarves behind
Ice and fire and forest we passed
And horror in the halls of stone
Trolls in the dark
The dawn took them all
Caught in the wood
By the wooden kings' men
But now I'm alone
'Cause I've made up my mind
By the spell of gold
The king under the mountain
Will risk the great war
Oh what a fool
He's losing control
So I am trying to find a way
Blind in the dark dungeon's night
Then darkness comes from the northern side
And Thorin clears his mind
9. The Piper's Calling 00:59 instrumental
10. Somewhere Far Beyond 07:30 Hide lyrics
I came from far
Beyond Your reality
The ocean of time
It's the odysee of mine
I am the narrator
And now I'll tell You
Where I've been
And what I saw
And how it ends
Welcome to the wasteland
In a world which is turning faster
Where I'm alone for a while
It's turning faster
Away from light straight to the dark
The march of time it has begun
I'm caught in an ancient dream so bright
And then the march of time begins
The man in black he waits
Behind this last task
It's full of pain
To sacrifice the only son
The legions of the lost
Wait in the old mine
They try to stop me
The battle it has begun
So I'm not afraid
To walk down to the wasteland
I'm so alone on my way
And I don't fear that dusty godforsaken path
Somewhere far beyond
Ref.:
Somewhere far beyond
The march of time it has begun
Somewhere far beyond your reality
And then the march of time begins
Look at my soul
And behind
There are some things
I've to hide from You
I'm following the black man
I'm losing control
And I don't care
What's happening to the boy
Welcome to the new world
One more step to the dark tower
And my whole body's in flames
I'm looking for Those healing things to be prepared
The march of time it has begun
I'm caught in a prisoner's dirty life
And then the march of time begins
The prisoner did bring the healing spell
The queen of shadows found herself in pain
And death brings answers to us all
What will I find
When the dark tower appears
Will it be the end
Or just a new quest after all
I am the narrator
And now I'll tell You
Where I'd been
And what I saw
And how it ends
(Solo)
Ref. (2x)
Look around and see
The world is turning fast
Faster day by day
Somewhere far beyond
I'll try to change it
If I can - Somewhere far beyond
There's only one chance
And it lies - Somewhere far beyond
Somewhere far beyond
The march of time it has begun
The march of time it has begun
The more I listen to Blind Guardian, the more I love them. They are one of my all time favourite bands, and I'm not even that big a fan of metal. But ever since I first heard them six years ago, I've been a fan.
Thanks for letting us know.
This is a legendary album. "Tales of the Twilight World" is great, but this just kills everything.
I agree that this is a legendary album but it can't kill Imagination, Opera nor Wheels of Time for me. I can't even decide which album is my favorite one between these four hahaha. :P
This is the best album by far altough their best song ever is Banish from the sanctuary, better than Lord of the rings and bard song.
From this album on, I would consider all albums except for A Twist in the Myth legendary... Though A Night at the Opera is included mostly because of And Then There Was Silence. That alone makes an album legendary.
Personally prefer Tales. Never really got into Somewhere far Beyond, somehow.
imagination for me this to me is to cliched not enough strong songs
Oh, everyone's grateful for a track listing regardless of whether they need it or not :)
Solos on Journey Through the Dark get me so fucking hyped.
youmirindude fast, melodic.... EPIC.. im agree whit you! Cheers from Argentina
Great music 👍🎶😃🎵
the best blind guardian album.
Gonzalo G. I've listened to this and the nightfall in middle earth, and i think i like this more
Imaginations From the Other Side
*Follow the blind
Apart from everything else about this epic album, those vocals on this record alone, are probably the most unearthly and unbelievably great vocals I've ever heard in my life. Both the layering, and Hansi's voice on its own. Among my top 10 albums for sure. Every song is killer, the production is stellar and powerful yet retains that amazing rawness at the same time, and the covers which are not here (cuz bonus tracks) are excellent too, especially their take on Queen's Spread Your Wings.
@MrDR7no
Hansi's voice reminds me of Twisted Sister's Dee Snider's voice on the up-tempo parts where he's scream-singing.
(I like Dee's voice, so it's a compliment.😒)
A true MASTERPIECE of an album!
The music, the lyrics, the musianship, the artwork...everything is top notch!
Brilliant production as well, love the clear sound of Hansi's bass.
His vocals are phenomenal on this one, great backing vocals by Marcus and André as well.
The march of time it has begun!!!! Follow the blind \m/
With the exception of three songs, I haven't heard any of this album before. Here's what I think about the songs from this listen.
1. Great album opener. I have a feeling that it might be a highlight. The beginning felt a bit misleading, kind of like Majesty does, but that's a good way to catch the listener off-guard.
2. Even better than Time What Is Time.
3. This is a short song, but I love how it shows a softer side to the album.
4. Another great song from the album. Slower than the first two songs, but it trades its speed for more symphonic elements.
5. Tanelorn. That's a name I first heard in a song from At the Edge of Time, so I thought that maybe there is some sort of connection. Whether that's true or not, that doesn't change the fact that this song is epic. It makes you feel like you're a part of the story when you listen to it. Easily the best song so far!
6. Seemed to be the darkest song on the album. It's also one of my favorites on here. This whole album just seems to be getting better and better with each song so far.
7. Ah, yes, the single from the album. I liked it a lot more than I ever expected it to, since when I had Memories of a Time to Come I thought the song was overrated. Upon hearing it here, now I understand why the song is loved so much.
8. I always liked this song. Picks up from the first Bard's Song nicely now that I've heard it in context. The ending kind of drags on, but other than that, no complaints.
9. Not much to say here. It's just an interlude. The bagpipe melody is nice, but I didn't feel like it set up the final song that well.
10. Somewhere Far Beyond is absolutely incredible! It's the best song on the whole album, and one of my favorite songs by them overall. The band couldn't have ended this disc in a more perfect way.
Very late response, but yes, Quest for Tanelorn and the one from ATEOT is about Tanelorn in Michael Moorcock's literature universe.
That sinking feeling when you find out that not a single Blind Guardian album before 2006 is on US iTunes or US Spotify :(
Even current tour shirts arent available in the US
yea but amazon has their albums
Penguincamp same for Canada sadly
Yeah, I just got a physical of Nightfall in Middle-Earth! It's great!
Penguincamp Buy the records, traitor....
One of the best power metal albums!it amaze me everytime,even after 10 years of listening.
Possibly one of the greatest power metal albuns of all time. It never gets old, each song has a huge charisma and the thematic is just magnificent. Truly a complete work of art.
You don't need a track listing for Blind Guardian. This isn't metal, this is epic..
But metal is epic too \m/
xXxLolerTypxXx\m/ Not as epic as BLIND GUARDIAN \m/
Yeah, Blind Guardian is AWESOME!
xXxLolerTypxXx No, no, BLIND GUARDIAN IS BLIND GUARDIAN!!!! \o/
...it's metal that is very epic...
Every last second of this is pure, concentrated awesomeness. Not one song is boring or lazily written. I love most of their stuff, but this album is really kicking my ass right now.
I really should go to bed, but there's no song that I can interrupt... Guess I gotta stay up for another 30 minutes...
Almost 25 years past and this album's still perfect. How is it even possible?
+Dmitry Chernov If its perfect its perfect. Why time would make it worse?
You find the answer in the first song : "Time what is time" . . . it' s just t i m e l e s s MUSIC . . . !
The Quest for Tanelorn... so fucking epic!
It's fucking beautiful. This magical band is loaded with beautiful Spiritual truths in their music catalog. It's very deep so you have to look beyond what people tell you what the songs mean. Don't follow "labels" of what other people say the songs mean as the mind can only label things at the surface of images and is blind, as these songs all mean YOU in many deep ways that the left-brain thinking ego mind of thought cannot see or understand.
In one of my Ayahuasca ceremonies after total surrender of the ego as I surpassed the illusions of death, eye was given the sword of light from the Universe. The sword of Light came through me in magical beauty as I was downloaded massive amounts of knowledge love and wisdom through my heart chakra. This magical sword is far beyond how you see a sword in a picture in the illusions of images as this sword is multi-dimensional as I became "one" with the sword, the sword was me and I was the sword, as ONE in infinite beauty and magic. The sword of Light is only to be used for love and light and becoming in full awareness of my Soul purposes and missions on this planet to help awaken humanity out of the countless illusions of society. Not a sword that can ever be used to harm anyone or anything.
And through that experience I was taken back to this album that I listened to as a young man in the early 1990's, and Mother Ayahuasca showed me this Blind Guardian album cover and she said to me: " You see Robert, You have always been one of the chosen ones, and you will always be one of the chosen ones" .. and she showed me what a sword really means (that has absolutely nothing to do with what silly humans think a sword means as the blind human mind takes everything beautiful and sacred and twists it in countless lies)..
The album cover is an Ayahuasca circle, with the Shaman playing Ayahuasca icaro's at the top through some kind of flute in the shape of an Ayahuasca vine on his chest, the flute at the bottom pointing to the light at the center of the circle. And he's elevated above everyone else sitting on a stool and wearing a crown (not just a hood like the others). And he also has a condor sitting on his shoulder (the highest flying bird that also has the ability to shift between Spiritual dimensions). In Ayahuasca art you will see the condor depicted quite often, and for infinite good reasons. Ayahuasca is the oldest and purest, and is by far the most effective form of Spiritual practice on the planet. Nothing could be more obvious as you listen to this album ;-)
I so clearly remember as a child listening to heavy metal during the 1980's, & entire worlds opened up for me, bands such as Iron Maiden, Testament and other great bands such as "Death" and Queensryche ( "Roads To Madness" by Queensryche for example is an Eternal Spiritual Truths classic), etc. A little later on in the early 1990's I got into the beauty of Blind Guardian with their beautiful album 'Somewhere Far Beyond". So many beautiful things that fake bands like metallica and ac/dc could never come close to offering. I never understood when people would tell me that Heavy Metal music is far too heavy to get into and too overwhelming. I always laughed, since I was a child, how people would tell me that this isn't music, but only loud cannons firing.
I ALWAYS laughed as they tried so hard to sway me, but could never sway me an inch. From family members to friends to pathetic pastors in churches (and let me tell you that you will NEVER find more fake people on the planet than fear-monger pastors and priests in churches), as nobody hates our beautiful Mother Earth and Nature and divides people's more with hatred than pastors in churches, and they mostly hate themselves. And I never once cared for their blind and pathetic opinions, I always laughed hysterically inside. I always laughed hysterically how they couldn't "get it." . Because to me, when listening to heavy metal, it was always a blissful sweet symphony of beauty !!
For me, it was always so soft, and wonderful, so welcoming, and Magical !! I feel so sorry for the humans that have no capability to ever understand the beauty of real heavy metal music, because heavy metal has so many beautiful Spiritual messages from the infinite Universe that the blind ego-based mind of duality is afraid to see, and afraid to understand.
Mother Ayahuasca showed me in infinite ways how Heavy Metal music was so vital and so beautiful in so many magical ways for my Spiritual growth. And this magical band of beauty, Blind Guardian, was absolutely Massive and monumental for my Spiritual journey of the Universe of be-ing and infinite truths of beauty of Light and Spirit. ;-) .. Mother Ayahuasca showed me how my Soul always chose the right bands and the right music, far beyond my mind. Intuitively I knew it all along... but my goodness Mother Ayahuasca showed me so many deep Spiritual truths in deeper ways of infinite understandings of Spirit, that the blind ego-mind that lives in the illusion of time and the illusions of duality, is totally incapable of understanding..
Inspiration creativity and performance without tomorrow...

It's a sin to listen to Theatre of Pain without listening to Black Chamber first. The flow is just perfect.
Butt Rockman I feel the same way. 🤘
I've listened to metal for about 20 years now and I've listened to lots of albums through every genre and this is my favourite album of all time, followed closely by Maidens 7th Son
My number one favorite album of all time. Nothing can beat this masterpiece
One of the best metal albums ever! And have it in mind it`s said from the distance of time!!!
Two guys here are servants of Mordor!
Nazgol
aduloni
Even I like this stuff :D
Morgoth Bauglir what about the Curse of Feanor?
cry1459 Feanor is weak...
Easily their second best album, after Nightfall. Recently Hansi apparently said that he thinks "Distant Memories" off of their new album is the most beautiful song they've ever written; and while I'm tempted to agree, because it's an amazing song, the prize still goes to Theatre of Pain for me.
+Yomiko Yoshihara For me, the most beautifl BG song, is and ever will be "Lord of the rings" . :)
This is the best album so far.
GREAT ALBUM!!!
what a fucking album.. one of the best ever made...
Blind Guardian-era power metal bands had balls and weren't just playing fantasy metal for the sake of it.
+Jamz Hatefeel So because music happens to be taking itself less seriously and happens to be more melodic, the band doesn't have balls? That's kind of silly to say.
one o f their best album..... in my opinion: batallions of fear, follow the blind and somewhere far beyound.... masterpieces
my first album from BG!!!!
i love it.
Great memories, bring me this album! I don´t how many times a listened to this album looking dazed to the cover...
BG at its best!
My favourite one.
Sensacional!!! Blind Guardian uma das melhores bandas de metal de todos os tempos! Valeu aos caras da metal ao extremo!!
This album take me back to my teenage years again.
this is the most beautifull masterpiece of power metal ever !!!! from colombia my friends!
It's a fucking great masterpiece! Blind Guardian is majestic... Greetings from Brazil, my friends!
Best BG album, after A night at the opera they lost their rage. Just my opinion.
They need Thomen
Thanks for Tracklisting :) Kudos!!!
Just a fantastic album. Slight weakness is it's one of their shorter ones, but still a good three quarters of an hour.
One the most Best epic solos in metal ever for sure 40:50
43:22
So sad this album has to end...
+Elton Amorim Chagas 0:00 Let me help you!
Together with Angra's Temple of Shadows, this is the best Power Metal album of all time!
Este álbum es oro puro !!!! ✨✨✨
OUT IN THE DISTANCE THERE'S SO MUCH GOLD
I never knew Blind Guardian were so fucking hard. I guess the "speed" component really made this album for me.
Obra maestra. Ni sobra, ni falta una nota en este disco.
Esse é um dos meus albums preferidos de todos os tempos. Absolutamente perfeito!
excelente álbum
눈 먼 지도자란 그루 이름 때문에 우리나라에 거의 소개 될 수 없는 그룹...ㅠㅠㅠ
Words of enemy.

김홍석 GURTH AN GLAMHOTH, MELLON NÍN!!!

I love how the title track is a Dark Tower song.
ALWAYS IT'S GOOD TO HEARD EXCELLENT MUSIC.....SIEMPRE ES BUENO ESCUCHAR MUSICA EXCELENTE
My Favorite Album!!!
always love BG when i play D&D
heard Persuader? its the new BG :)
... not really, but its close enough that im sure you will like it.
music and gaming for life \m/
Persuader got very similar vocals, but the rest doesn't even approach Blind Guardian imo.
Then again, last time I listened it has been a few years ago, and back then I didn't like pre-Imaginations Blind Guardian either. (I got better)
I've never really liked power-metal but this is great
victropic Funny thing, i am always liked power metal and this is not been my favourite. I was thinkin in other day, this may be too difficult for power metal...
+karju4 What do you mean?
+Jesus when you gon to pay us da second visit, homie?
Bernabé Fernández Touceda when the time is right (when my dad gets bored)
it's actually speed metal, with power lyrics.
best Blind guardian álbum
90's Blind Guardian were the real deal
The bards song is amazing, i'm gonna have to buy this album
Best Power/speed album !!!!
metal is not my cup of tea normally, but i love this album
Masterpiece!
So good.
this drummer is a fucking beast
I like fantasy and I like metal, so I can't help but listen to BG from to time.
1. Time what is time 00:00 aos -1-30.1-4-40 lembrou me uma musica, life is life
Mystical old bard!
1st album of the year!
I love this band they get me pumped and ready to kick some a**
Masters!
The hornpipe
black chamber into theatre of pain gives me chills!
Esse álbum junto com o temple of shadows do Angra entra na minha lista dos álbuns mais empolgantes do "power metal", sempre volto a escutar, diferente de outras bandas de power metal que acabam enjoando rápido.
Does anybody know where can I find music similar to 0:00 - 0:0:40 ? I really liked The Bard's Song but I don't want to ruin which is my favourite song at the moment by listening it gazzillion times.
+Nacho Romero Try spanish guitar songs.
im going to recommend friday night live in san francisco. some of the best flamenco playing ive heard. also vamo alla flamenco from the video game final fantasy ix. wonderful arrangment there.
+Nacho Romero In terms of Blind Guardian, Fiddler on the Green (Demons and Wizards), Skalds and Shadows, and A Past and Future Secret are a good place to start.
+Nacho Romero The Islander by Nightwish
+Nacho Romero try Breed 77...awesome stuff
GOAT.
Por esos años, cuando salio este disco creí que no podian hacer nada mejor, luego hicieron el Imaginations y el Nightfall 😁
*So awesome...*
Awesome album, good times when hansi still played the bass
A shame I wasn't around when this album was first released...
Eh, unless you lived in Germany or an adjacent country at that time, odds are you probably wouldn't have heard this upon release.
yeah also being young is cool
Fan from 1997
Fucking greatest Power Metal album ever!!!!
best piece...
Cuanto poder tiene este disco!!!
un exelente album
Blind Guardian uma das mellhores muito fodaaaaaa
brasileiro de bom gosto
Rosa maria França \m/ tudo de bom mesmo neeeee
wanderley walerio pois é!
