*Please* let it be better than The Glorious Burden. That piece of crap almost destroyed my faith in Iced Earth, and it had nothing to do with the change of singers!

I like this song, I love Blind Guardian as a whole I love how they combine metal with a sort of minstrel like bard music

I'll have to check it out.

It would be nice to have some theme-music.

"I love Blind Guardian as a whole. I love how they combine metal with a sort of minstrel like bard music."

I'm yet to hear any BG. I was a mad Iced Earth fan until last year when I bought The Glorious Boredom. I still like them, but there's only so much Schaffer can do with three chord progressions. He's nowhere near as good a songwriter as he thinks he is.

One of these days I'll get around to checking out Tales From The Twilight World, Imaginations From The Other Side and Somewhere Far Beyond. Any other recommendations?

Of course none of these modern power metal bands could exist without the influence of Priest, Maiden and Dio-era Rainbow, but now I'm showing my age...
