 Somewhere Far Beyond - Blind Guardian
Newest Review: ... solos and fierce vocals from Hansi that disappear in the more epic songs. The undervalued previous album 'Tales from the ... more  ... Twilight World' incorporated more acoustic and folk elements into Blind Guardian's sound that are really taken to the limits here, most successfully in the band's ever-popular pastoral ballad 'The Bard's Song - In the Forest' and most gratingly in the bagpipe interlude 'The Piper's Calling,' which will be especially appreciated by those of you living in Edinburgh, where the screeching call of the piper is seldom heard every single damn time you venture anywhere in the city centre.

Energetic performance from the band's early years. 
Lacks the variety of studio albums, omitting acoustic ballads and more progressive material. A great early power metal album. Soon subjugated by more accomplished releases. You can still buy it You might not yet have it! Plenty of good songs Not the most varied album in the world Fiercely aggressive, intelligent lyrics May offend sensibilities of certain peopleShine On - Jet
Good songs, catchy in places Lacks originality

Great tracks, some new stuff for my collection, Heaton's voice A few more religious tracks than I'd like
Rent - Soundtrack
Good voices, music, lyrics. emotions None, as far as I'm concerned
Raiders Of The Lost Ark - John Williams - Soundtrack
Perfection in film scoring: works in film and works just as well alone Scarcity of album very unfortunate

Fits in well to the film Not enough upbeat songs for the genre

Still a few cracking tracks especially at the beginning Disjointed, too many filler tracks

Great voice, good choice of songs Not for everyone, not a very distinctive voice
