Damn, I can't wait! I had never listened to Blind Guardian prior to their 'Fly' single, but Fly kicked so much ass that I am really curious as to what this album will hold in store for me.

Not listened to Blind Guaridan
Do that now!
I miss an epic song but it seems quite good, the cover is awesome as well!

I miss too an epic song... and this album is shorter than the two previous ones... I hope that after 4 years this won't be a dissaspointment

Oh well, we still have Savage Circus, haven't we?

I am waiting for this album impatiently. I just it will be a good one.

Savage Circus are weak, compared to BG. If we talk about BG clones/substitutes, I prefer Persuader

This should be good. Blind Guardian are (for me) one of the best power metal bands there, alongside Iced Earth, for their originality and creativity. Everyone can instantly identify BG's distorted guitars or Jon Schaffer's triplets, and Hansi's voice exceeds words. While I haven't heard Fly, I have gained the impression that it's up to BG's usual standard. Pity I won't be buying this album on launch-I'm saving money for Maiden album/gig in December (for the same reason, I have to BG playing in Dublin in September ).

Oh, and that cover is sexy. :p

That is the most kick ass cover ever!

Of course, but they play old Blind Guardian, like from Imaginations and before. Actual Blind Guardian is very different from that (I like it more too )

Is "Turn the Page" a Bob Seger cover?...if so i hope they do better than Metallica

Can't wait to hear this one... I liked the cover.

hmm...no lenghty epic songs...well,all theyre albums have been absolutely top-notch and i hope this one is no exception
and all things said about the cover,yeah,absolutely true

Can't wait for this one. I enjoyed "Fly" so I have good expectations for this one....

Carry The Blessed Home, great title! I see myself standing in the crowd in september singing "Carry the blessed hooooome!!" \m/
Can't wait for september!!

I love the new album cover... Brilliant style...

Well, Somewhere far beyond didnt have epics and it still kicked insurmountable amounts of ass.... infact, Im pretty sure only Night at the Opera had an epic

Can't wait to hear the new stuff...if it is as good as the cover is gonna kick ass

I have heard Fly and I really like it. A really killer song.
I miss a lot their epic stuff. Maybe this album has more epic stuff.
