Some news of the orchestral project!

Yesterday it was possible to chat live with Hansi on Metalcamp's website (Slovenian festival at which the group will participate this summer). Many questions were asked, some more relevant than others but it's mainly the few on orchestral project that attracted attention.

It should be the next production of the group before another album and a priori it will be released under the name Blind Guardian. Hansi think this album reach the same level of importance among the fans that Nightfall In Middle-Earth or Imaginations From The Other Side. Surprisingly enough, no song is based on the stories of Tolkien!

Other small bulk news:

  • The next Demons & Wizards will not come out before 2 years
  • The documentary Travelers At The Edge Of Time should be available on the internet
  • The group think often to make an acoustic tour
  • A new version of And Then There Was Silence is being recorded
  • The release of a best-of album is planned

And if you wish, you can read the full session, as it was that evening: Chat with Hansi (This is the raw version without any formatting or correction).
