Blind Guardian – Somewhere Far Beyond Revisited LP (Blue Vinyl) For Discount

Right on time for their show at 2024 s edition of Wacken Open Air, Blind Guardian proudly present Somewhere Far Beyond Revisited which includes a complete re-recording of this classic of 1992 s Somewhere Far Beyond , a landmark record for Germany s heavy metal titans. After three albums on No Remorse Records, it was the band s major label debut coming out via Virgin Records and opened doors to the Japanese market resulting in a wider availability and presence on the global metal scene. After finding the right balance of speed, heaviness, melodies, drama and irresistible choruses on 1990 s Tales From The Twilight World , Somewhere Far Beyond honed this approach to perfection, evolving further on a conceptual level and increasingly daring take on Blind Guardian s sonic range. Somewhere Far Beyond experimented with keyboards, orchestrations, and folk elements, the latter manifesting in the group s best-known song and live staple, The Bard Song (In The Forest) , whereas other tracks like Ashes to Ashes , the rapid Journey Through the Dark or The Quest For Tanelorn connected well with previous mostly fast-paced albums yet offered an additional push in dynamics.
