BLIND GUARDIAN unveil details about ‘The God Machine’ and launch a new song

Blind Guardian announced a new album. ‘The God Machine’ is scheduled for being released on September 2^nd, 2022 and comes via Nuclear Blast.

Hansi Kürsch about it: “We didn’t want to rehash our qualities from 1995, but didn’t want to continue down this complex path forever either. ‘The God Machine’ is a new beginning for us. We’ve set a new course and gone back to certain things that we’ve neglected a bit on the last few albums.”

With ‚Blood oft he Elves‘ a first song premiers today and can be listened to here: https://youtu.be/tCzE9LX8cgc

Singer Hansi Kürsch comments:
“‘Blood Of The Elves’ features a pretty heavy side what the avid fan of BLIND GUARDIAN hopefully enjoys well. More than well, I’d guess. Instrumentally, the tracks has some kind of an early Nineties appeal that blends well into the vocal parts of the opera/twist era and catapults both epochs into a new era for the band. A perfect hybrid. The chorus has some very strong sing along vibes, despite its complexity. What else do you need? Inspired by the ‘The Witcher’ computer game series, the lyrics even reinforce the power of this banger and the clip by Dirk Behlau fits perfectly to the whole setting. Let me tell you: ‘The God Machine’ has even more to offer. And that’s no promise – that’s the ultimate truth. Stay tuned.”
