Wednesday, April 18: Blind Guardian, “Time What is Time”

Somewhere Far Beyond was
the major-label breakthrough that introduced Blind Guardian to larger European
and Japanese audience, crystallized the band’s musical and lyrical concerns,
and bridged the gap between the straight-line thrash of their first three
records and the near-symphonic bombast that would soon follow.  “Time What is Time” opened the album in
suitably dramatic fashion, placing Thomas Stauch’s percussive throttle high in
the mix and stacking enough Hansi Kürsch vocal tracks to fill an entire
studio.  Andre Olbrich and Marcus Siepen
actually had to fight to be heard over all the grandiloquence, as Kalle Trapp’s
production wasn’t quite equipped to handle all of the vocal and percussive
layers, but for the most part everything cohered well enough to render “Time
What is Time” an excellent pre-Imaginations
from the Other Side
anthem.  If
anything, although Blind Guardian would remain a power metal band through and
through, they would never again sound this frenzied, even though the song was
arguably less intense than what that came before.
