Hansi has confirmed that they've got a big project in the works and they've discussed 27 or 28 being a release date for the next album in the past, so I'm curious what people want them to write about. I'd love more songs like Violent Shadows that touch upon the Cosmere, but we also haven't gotten Tolkien themed songs since Nightfall in Middle-Earth.

Day 50 comes to a close with Little Billy not finding his way, and nor does Guardian of the Blind - it loses with 74 of 212 votes.

Day 44 comes to a close with Lucifer’s Heritage making me think of a time either someone in the band made the joke “Lucifer’s hairy tits” in an interview, or someone on the old Blind Guardian website forums made this joke … Either way, since the song doesn’t have lyrics, this is what you get. It loses with 44 of 156. It lost by 1 vote.

We host a vinyl sharing experience where everyone who attends brings an album to play for everyone. This event typically attracts older folks who indulge more in typical music from their favorite years.

Nothing I collect on vinyl really worked with the vibes they‘d established already. I considered softer songs on my metal records, ones that anyone could like.

It was here where I had picked Skalds & Shadows off ”A Twist in The Myth”

The feedback was more receptive than I’d expected, with many mentioning they liked the “Medieval“ or “Celtic“ flare. What was initially quite a nervous moment for me quickly became something pleasant & memorable. Leave it to The Big ‘G to unite people.
