Greatly inspired by life experience, world myths, legends, and their own fervent creativity, metal's most epic storytellers Blind Guardian continually aspire to define themselves on a whole new level. With their highly-anticipated, orchestral tenth studio album 'Beyond The Red Mirror,' they have successfully captured the scope of their essence with unprecedented accuracy. By far, the most important fact about the new album is this: there are no compromises. Not one. This is not a typical soundtrack or musical or rock opera. It is, simply, typical Blind Guardian.
'Beyond The Red Mirror' has raised the bar on the gold standard trajectory the band had set themselves on when they first formed. Contemplating the band's extremely successful thirty-year career when asked to describe the band's guiding principles for the creation of this new release, Blind Guardian guitarist Andr? Olbrich shares: "We want to surprise and impress with our music. Nowadays, music tends to be arbitrary and predictable. But we want to keep developing our music." This strategy has been followed to the letter and there will be nothing comparable to this anywhere in the panorama of music until Blind Guardian decides to record again.
