Blind Guardian | Marcus talks about their live album, their upcoming album and 30 years

"With a steady evolution from their early days as a speed metal band to their current, renowned musical alchemy of glory, drama, and grandiosity, Germany’s Blind Guardian have long since made their mark as the world’s definitive melodic/progressive rock band. For many, they need no introduction, as the band possesses a track record and back catalogue of classic staples that perhaps only Iron Maiden can match. Called everything from heavy metal bards to modern-day minstrels, BLIND GUARDIAN possess the ability to transport their legions of fans to new landscapes with their majestic songwriting, fantastically themed lyrics, and their meticulous, emotion-packed music."

Ben talked with Marcus Siepen about their new live album, Live Beyond The Spheres, their upcoming orchestral album and playing with Blind Guardian for 30 years.

Aired 8th June 2017.
