Bio:
Blind Guardian is a German power metal band formed in the mid-1980s in Krefeld, West Germany.They are often credited as one of the seminal and most influential bands in the power metal and speed metal subgenres.Nine musicians have been a part of the band's line-up in its history, which has consisted of singer Hansi Kürsch, guitarists André Olbrich and Marcus Siepen, and drummer Frederik Ehmke since 2005.Blind Guardian is a part of the German heavy metal scene that emerged in the mid-1980s. They formed in 1984 as Lucifer's Heritage by Kürsch (then also bass guitarist), Olbrich, other guitarist Markus Dörk and drummer Thomas Stauch. Dörk and Stauch both left the following year, and were replaced by Christof Theißen and Hans-Peter Frey respectively, who left as well before the end of the year. In 1987, Siepen joined and Stauch returned; under this line-up, which lasted 18 years (the longest in the band's history), the band changed their name to Blind Guardian and released their first album, Battalions of Fear, in 1988.Over the releases, Blind Guardian established themselves as a notable successful band and as pioneers of the power metal movement. In 1996, Kürsch stopped acting as the band's bass guitarist to focus on vocals. Various session members replaced him, mainly Oliver Holzwarth. However in 2005, Stauch left the band, disapproving of Blind Guardian's transition into a more complex progressive sound with a heavy use of backing vocals, and was replaced by Ehmke.Most of Blind Guardian's albums were well received by fans and critics alike: Somewhere Far Beyond (1992), Imaginations from the Other Side (1995), and Nightfall in Middle-Earth (1998), are especially seen as influential works. The music is mostly composed by Kürsch and Olbrich together, and the lyrics, written by Kürsch, are mostly inspired by the fiction of fantasy authors such as J. R. R. Tolkien, Michael Moorcock, Robert Jordan, Stephen King and George R. R. Martin as well as traditional legends and epics.Over the years a theme has developed which personifies the band members as travelling storytellers, leading fans to refer to the band affectionately as "The Bards".
Album:
The wait is over! BLIND GUARDIAN is back! The world's most popular fantasy metal band gives us 'Twilight Of The Gods'– the first single from their long-awaited new album, to be unleashed upon the world in in January 2015.'Twilight Of The Gods'the first creation of the Krefeld, Germany based band in more than four years will be released on December 5, 2014 via Nuclear Blast. BLIND GUARDIAN vocalist Hansi Kürsch assures, "this song is a statement about BLIND GUARDIAN. The pure definition of all that the band stands for: it is innovative, melodic and brutal." And thus a perfect choice to get fans into the proper mood for the upcoming album.'Twilight Of The Gods'is a "neck breaker" in the true tradition of BLIND GUARDIAN "that will captivate you with the most epic and catchy chorus we've ever written," says Kürsch.In 'Twilight Of The Gods' BLIND GUARDIAN is singing about the deities' waning power; no such times are in sight for the band. BLIND GUARDIAN is back with a vengeance; with an impressive single from an overwhelming record!
