Tales From The Twilight World [Remastered] - Blind Guardian

You just have to get THIS ALBUM

Advantages: ne of the best melodic-speed-metal albums ever!!!
Disadvantages: Some weird songs on it

Well, the first two CDs of the German Metalband Blind Guardian were really good but they both had some weaker songs and were too much influenced by bands like Helloween. On their third album, "Tales from the Twilight World", Blind Guardian managed to find their own style and improve even further as musicians and songwriters. The album cover shows that this release was of a darker kind of nature: An evil troll-king sitting on his throne in a cave, surrounded by his minions... A really nice cover that already created some kind of fantasy atmosphere... The album starts with an epic choir: "The morning sun of Dune..." still gives me shivers when listening to it. "Traveler in Time" is the title of the opener that was obviously influenced by the Dune novels. For the first time you can really hear what will become one of the band ...

Review of Tales From The Twilight - Blind Guardian

This album shows the band from an unknown side...

Advantages: Blind Guardian from a totally different side - but still great!
Disadvantages: -

Ah, yes, in the discography of the German Fantasy-Metalband Blind Guardian. Okay, so let's see what we got here: The Forgotten Tales... This album can not be considered as a regular Blind Guardian album indeed. It was born out of the idea to try something different and make some coverversions. And as the band has done some coverversions before they decided to rearrange some older songs and put them alltogether on an album. So the idea for "The Forgotten Tales" was born somewhere in 1996. The album starts with "Mr. Sandman", a song you should know at least when you listen to it - but in a typical version of Blind Guardian: At first you won ...

Review of Forgotten Tales - Blind Guardian

THE GUARDIAN.

Advantages: A good value, excellent read.
Disadvantages: None.

'National Newspaper of the Year' in 2006 by the British Press Awards and joint winner for 'Worlds best designed newspaper' 2006. The papers quality speaks for itself. - When I buy a newspaper I like to be informed, challenged and posed different points of view other than my own. The Guardian delivers all this to me and more. For my meagre £1.50 I have actually bought something that will enlighten and entertain and it is very much a part of my Saturday's reading. ---THE GUARDIAN--- The Guardian has 6 sections this week. The first outer newspaper which contains the subsequent individual sections deals with the main points of the news which deal with the Political issues of the day, and all other major news stories. The Guardian pulls news from other sources that they are affiliated with. The overview news is punchy, well written ...
