13 Blind Guardian
Blind Guardian is a German power metal band formed in the mid-1980s in West Germany. They are often credited as one of the seminal and most influential bands in the power metal and speed metal subgenres. Heavily influenced by Queen, they use the technique of overdubbing. They also incorporate large amounts of orchestral arrangements. Hansi Kürsch creates a huge choir effect by overdubbing his own voice multiple times in complex, overlapping harmonies. Thanks to overdubs and numerous backing vocals Blind Guardian stand out with a very dense sound.
They take me to another place and time because both music and lyrics are mystical. There are Tolkien fantasy stories, medieval and ancient characters, elves, dwarves, kings, knights, bards, aliens, travels in time and space... You can hear lines like "We all drown in the fifth dimension", "Born in the days of medieval, my inner voice is always asking why”, "I'm an alien, so they say a risk to everyone”.
