THE BEAST

German power metal masters  BLIND GUARDIAN  recently kicked off pre-orders for a special 25th anniversary edition of their  Imaginations From The Other Side  album, due to be released on December 11th. This edition will contain live recordings and other special versions of the  BLIND GUARDIAN  classics featured on the album. Songs like ' Born In A Mourning Hall'  still sound as timeless as back in 1995, and today the band release a live version of the track from the upcoming album.

Hansi Kürsch  comments: " What can I say? A brilliant album celebrates its 25th anniversary. It is great to celebrate this in such a bombastic manner. Luckily we filmed our  2016 show in Oberhausen when we performed the entire album live . This is the perfect moment for us to present this master piece in so many different facets. An ideal resurrection of precious memories long gone, but not forgotten. This album is made for eternity… I hope. Enjoy ."
