One of the only metal bands that doesn't sound like garbage live. Hansi can actually sing in tune, crazy I know.
>>129781076But all their songs are about goofy shit like elves and dwarfs
>>129781076I've probably seen 300+ metal and hard rock bands live, including Blind Guardian. They are not one of the only band that doesn't sound garbage live.
>>129781076Blind Guardian do sound great live, but tons of other metal bands sound good too.That is my favorite Blind Guardian album though, probably because it sounds the thrashiest.
>>129781444desu I'm talking mostly about the vocals here, if a band isn't as vocally focused it doesn't make such a big difference.
>>129781468I don't think I've heard a single vocalist that sounds as consistently good as Hansi live. I'd love to be pointed to some though.
>>129781473Me too. If the vocals are shit I usually don't listen to it.>>129781482Glenn Hughes always sounds amazing live, doesn't matter if he's singing old Deep Purple tunes or Black Country Communion stuff. Dee Snider always sounded great the times I've seen him. Within Temptation had the greatest live vocal performance I've seen. I was completely blown away seeing them. I could go on forever. Yes, Hansi is fantastic live, but he also has like 3 harmonies to choose from and He usually don't sing the highest harmony on more than a few places in a single concert, for obvious reasons.
I never heard a band sound good live. If they sound good, they are playing their studio albums.

VALHALLADELIVERANCEWHY YOU'VE EVER FORGOT ME
shame that they're pigenholed into the metal genre where improvisation is verboten and they're not allowed to flex their musicianship skills and rock outChili Peppers continue to reign supreme
>>129781468>That is my favorite Blind Guardian album though, probably because it sounds the thrashiest.I think Somewhere Far Beyond was the perfect middle ground
>>129781076blind guardian also has good design merch

>>129789933Not true and even then, Walls of Jericho is better than Imagination from the Other Sidehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ApV40CtjMGQ
>>129789969it's still weighed down by maidenesque songwriting and they could never hope to achieve something like A Night At the Opera
>>129789969Blind Guardian is 100000000x better than Helloween And I like Helloween
