About Blind Guardian
Hometown
Krefeld, Germany
Formed
1984
Genre
Metal
Blind Guardian emerged from West Germany in the mid-'80s with a style that fused gothic- and fantasy-tinged European power metal with the velocity and technical precision of speed metal. Since debuting in 1988 with the thrashy and raw Battalions of Fear, the band have become an institution in power, progressive, and neo-classical metal circles, delivering genre classics Nightfall in Middle-Earth (1998), A Night at the Opera (2002), and A Twist in the Myth (2006), plus orchestral works such as Legacy of the Dark Lands (2019) that skillfully pair fantastical narratives with ace musicianship. God Machine, the group's 20th full-length effort, was released in 2022.
Members of Blind Guardian include, or have included, Hansi Kürsch.
