They should change name, is taken by Amon Amarth
I like some how lyrics, music as well, seems better as others after Nightfall albums , but if its be so operatic it will be boring

Sounds good. No real surprises, which can be a good thing sometimes. It sounds like what you'd expect to hear from a new Blind Guardian song. All the trademarks are present. I hope this isn't the best song on the album though. While it's good, and no doubt will get better with subsequent listens, it doesn't grab you and move you right from the start like most of their best and classic songs do.

It sounds terrible in mono, although I don't think the song is good to begin with.

Not bad at all, but it sounds like a demo recording

I have to agree with above comments, the sound seems rather weak and subpar for the band, and the soundclip from Sacred Worlds at the end of the video just highlights it more. The song in general on first listen is pretty forgettable too

The lyrics surely do not help its funk...

Rest assured, it's only the video quality that's bad. The actual file from Nuclear Blast at 320 kbps sounds excellent.

Decent song if completely predictable.

I'm glad they're moving back to more speed metal on some of their tracks.


Agree that it's just a decent song. Doesn't do much to excite me for the album though. I thought they would start with a bang.

I like it, not super awesome but the first peek generally isn't the best song. its standard Blind Guardian fare; speed metal, lyrics are still the good old blend of mysticism and fantasy, vocals havent changed much if at all, guitar work sounds good enough to my untrained ear to listen to a high quality version when it ships. I'm just glad they aren't doing anything weird soundwise; i'll take a basic, unoriginal, standard album over something like hammerfall's infected any day...
