About the album

Blind Guardian's latest offering "Beyond The Red Mirror" is a testament to their mastery in the realm of power metal. With an epic narrative that unfolds through elaborate compositions and orchestral grandeur, the album takes listeners on a journey through mythical landscapes and existential themes. The band's signature blend of intricate guitar work and soaring vocals are complemented by a rich tapestry of symphonic elements recorded across world-renowned studios in Budapest, Prague, and Boston. Each track is meticulously crafted to contribute to the overarching storyline—a sequel to their earlier work "Imaginations from the Other Side"—delivering an experience that is both cinematic and soul-stirring.

From the thunderous opening notes of "The Ninth Wave" to the climactic finale in "Grand Parade," Blind Guardian weaves a tale that explores time travel, cosmic battles, and philosophical musings about fate and reality. Their collaboration with renowned orchestras adds depth and complexity to tracks like "Twilight Of The Gods" and "The Throne," where choral arrangements amplify the dramatic effect. This reissue not only revitalizes a classic but also enhances it with superior production quality—offering fans both new and old an opportunity to rediscover the magic within "Beyond The Red Mirror."
