Anyone get the Blind Guardian Live album?

[Iced In Flames]

Pretty godamn good. The sound is excellent!

 

[Rottuated]

Hmm, think I heard about that being released, but I never got it. What is the set?

 

[Lies and Perfidy]

Heh, I just put that on. I picked up an import about a month ago...REALLY fucking good. Like, AIA/Live After Death/Live Shit/Unleashed In the East quality.

Here is all the info, Rottuated. Also check out the reviews. *SHAMELESS SELF-PROMOTION ALERT! *

 

[PlatypusJesus]

YES! I got the import from the end months ago. All that I can say is

 

[Rottuated]

Wow, that's two great looking set lists. Looks like I've got something to add to my "To Buy List"

 

[Iced In Flames]

Into The Storms sounds fantastic!

 

[TheFourthHorseman]

It's not bad of course,but it's nothing I would buy...

Hansi's vocals aren't nearly as good as on the albums and the rest just sounds exactly like the studio stuff...well I guess it's a bit hard making it different somehow,but it's just not very interesting for me.

 

[Fuþorc]

I wish they sounded like that in the studio.

 

[Lies and Perfidy]

Amen. Please, enough excessive vocal tracking and overdone orchestral crap - I want riffs, Riffs, RIFFS! MAJESTY!! \m/

 

[devilboy]

Just got it in today...can't wait to give it a listen to. They were AMAZING on the last tour. Still wish Battfield was on it though.

 

[Iced In Flames]

Amen. Please, enough excessive vocal tracking and overdone orchestral crap - I want riffs, Riffs, RIFFS! MAJESTY!! \m/

Then go listen to Slayer or Kreator.

 

[Lies and Perfidy]

Does the concept of me enjoying good speed metal annoy you for some obscure reason?

 

[Iced In Flames]

Nope. If you want fast go listen to that. If you want multitracked vox and great leads listen to Guardian. If you want "troo" metal shit go listen to Manowar. thats what I'm saying. If you want hard hitting riffs you wont find it much in Guardian anymore.

 

[PlatypusJesus]

You would if you took out all of the orchestral effects, as proven by Live.

 

[Iced In Flames]

This time in English

 

[Lies and Perfidy]

To further what LoM said, Live proves that not only was Blind Guardian once capable of playing riffage-heavy music, they still are beneath all the crap. Thus, I support them continuing to do so, and removing the crap.

Pretty godamn good. The sound is excellent!

I agree...Blind Guardian is one of the best German Metal Bands besides Dew-Scented and Gamma Ray. The CD is awesome
