Blind Guardian - Night At The Opera (remixed & Remastered)

Teaming up with producer Charlie Bauerfeind (Helloween, Gamma Ray, Angra) at the band's own Twilight Hall Studios in Grefrath-Oedt, Germany, seventh studio effort A Night at the Opera showcased a more aggressive version of Hansi Kürsch's strongly emotive vocals, and cleaner, down-tuned guitar sounds. While the storytelling aspect of the band and the epic and grandiose studio performances remained intact, noticeably absent were the Tolkien-themed lyrics, but that would prove to be no hindrance to the success that waited them. A Night at the Opera went on to receive universal praise as one of the best albums in it's genre. This reissue is augmented by the bonus cuts "Age Of False Innocence" and "Under The Ice."
