Blind Guardian

Blind Guardian

Blind Guardian es un grupo musical alemán de heavy metal originado a mediados de los años 80. La historia de Blind Guardian comienza en 1985 en la ciudad de Krefeld, Alemania, cuando Hansi Kürsch y André Olbrich deciden formar una banda de heavy metal. Con Hansi a la voz y al bajo, André en la guitarra, Marcus Dörk como segunda guitarra, Thomen "The Omen" Stauch en la batería graban su primera maqueta titulada Symphonies Of Doom bajo el nombre de Lucifer's Heritage. Aunque la maqueta pasa inadvertida, en el año 1987 sacan otra llamada Battalions Of Fear, con Christoff Theissen en la segunda guitarra y Hans-Peter Frey en la batería. Esta segunda maqueta tendría un mejor acogida y consigue firmar con el sello independiente No Remorse. En ese momento deciden cambiar el nombre de la banda por el de Blind Guardian y ya cuentan en sus filas con Marcus Siepen, en reemplazo de Christoff Theissen, y Thomas Stauch retoma las baquetas. El primer disco oficial de la banda lleva el nombre de Battalions Of Fear, y sale a la venta a comienzos de 1988. Musicalmente hablando es considerado como speed metal, y en este álbum están presentes temas basados en la literatura fantástica como la obra de J. R. R. Tolkien y de Stephen King.

Letra de Battlefield
It cannot be seen
But there's blood on the green
Only god knows I'm innocent
Take me, take me home
A dark seed reigns in me
Like the storm rules over the sea
I challenge thee, do not cross this bridge alone

Don't dare me now
The threatening shadows will pass by
There're getting closer now
Open your eyes
Wake up my dear young friend
And hate shall fade away

I will not move, yet
I'll stand still, instead

There on the battlefield he stands
Down on the battlefield he's lost
And on the battlefield it ends

War and anger shall reign
The clash of iron can be heard
By blindness you're driven insane
I'm lost in anguish and grief
Sorrow won't wane 'til you die
A shattered body deeply hurt
And darkness will cover the light
It's gone forevermore

The field's been left in sorrow
The father and the son
They're gone

The sun shines bright
And anger rises
Lorn and lonely
Torn apart
Don't you think
It's time to stop now
We were charmed and fooled by the old serpent's kiss

Let's pray
That heaven is on our side
Through violence and horror
Shall honour arise

So let's pray
And blessed shall be our leader
We follow the noble and bright

Don't you hear me crying
Crying
Come take me away
I hallow thy name

There on the battlefield he stands
Down on the battlefield he's lost
And on the battlefield it ends

War and anger shall reign
The clash of iron can be heard
By blindness you're driven insane
I'm lost in anguish and grief
Sorrow won't wane 'til you die
A shattered body deeply hurt
And darkness will cover the light
It's gone forevermore

That's what minstrel sing
Join in the horrible screams
Take part in murderous deeds
Renowned be the lion-hearted
Join in the minstrelsy
Wailing in endless grief
It eagerly longs for more
Broken bodies lay down on the ground

Blood sheds all over the place
The green will be stained forever
And hate reigns all over the field
They keep struggling on in anger

Fiercely intense
Outrageous, too blind to see
And in pain they keep on singing
We claim the land for the highlord
God bless the land and our highlord

War and anger shall reign
The clash of iron can be heard
By blindness you're driven insane
I'm lost in anguish and grief
Sorrow won't wane 'til you die
A shattered body deeply hurt
And darkness will cover the light
It's gone forevermore
