BLIND GUARDIAN - At The Edge of Time (OFFICIAL FULL ALBUM STREAM)

[@hazbojangles2681]

Bought Sacred 2 because of this album. I started reading Wheel of Time because of this album. I started Game of Thrones because of this album. I started reading Michael Moorcock because of this album. It’s safe to say that Blind Guardian has been very influential on my life.

[@chagerbe]

Long live Sacred 2, I was playing it earlier today, then I saw your comment this evening. :)

[@gameoverinsertcointocontin8102]

Sadly the studio behind Sacred 2 fell apart partially because of this. The cameos and extra cinematics caused further delays for a project already behind schedule and delayed a console release to the point where the studio could no longer pay the bills.

00:00:00 and 01:03:56 Sacred Worlds The realm's bleeding It suffers Old and weak No further arguing There is war at hand The system's failing Engines running Then after all I sense the end is dawning These lunatics deny the truth I know I will not fail There'll be War it's now or never We shall stand together One by one This world is sacred (I'm coming home) War it's now or never We shall stand together One by one This world is sacred I'm coming home Coming home You chase in twilight And you know You will be on your own On your own The misery shown I'll be alone in this hour I'll face the unknown Witness the end I'm bleeding, I'm fading Here in my final hour When long-lost memories return And a voice keeps calling "All dead and gone It's out of hand Life is in motion" I'm wishing, I'm fading "Time to wake up Face the truth" I'm sinking I'm drowning There's no doubt, no regret "Time to reveal now" This is no illusion It is real Carry on the flame It's not over now Watch me, I will rise Time to reveal now I know I will not fail Anymore I'll go on forever All that really matters Blessed realm This world is sacred (I'm coming home) War it's now or never We shall stand together One by one This world is sacred (I'm coming home) Yesterday's gone There's no today, no tomorrow I'm raised from the dead The ritual failed There at the gates I'm left alone in this hour Driven insane I am left alone And now I drown in deepest shadows While the golden hall is sealed I'm wishing I'm fading And I'm part of the machine My eyes are the eyes of a dead man And I feel the unholy stream The source of my power T-energy I'm in control I will live forever All that really matters Find the one This world is sacred (I'm coming home) War it's now or never We shall stand together One by one This world is sacred I'm coming home I spread my wings But keep on falling I should have known I can see it coming The war is over There's whispering in the wind Just let me out of here There is no way There's no end While all the suffering goes on All that I know Is that I'm not insane It's not over

00:09:18 Tanelorn (Into The Void) I travel a dusty old road And carry on in ultimate terror The torture will grow While infinity's lost The lunatic fears the unknown Into the fire Curse me Unknown Into the fire Everything is gone Did I miss the point Or fail to see That I am lost Cause I am chosen Crush another tower Grind the universe I'll tear it into pieces Mourn forevermore And here I Cry for Tanelorn Still I fear the voices Cry for Tanelorn No more fear, no voices Cry for Tanelorn Into the void this journey ends I cry for Tanelorn The dawn comes crashing down Into the void My locked up asylum Don't turn your back On your prodigal son When terror is raging Still my hate will grow Here on my own I've built a pyre, oh fire Here on my own I've wasted life So weak A dark sword A black soul My soulmate gets near Deceiver Deceiver I'm banned from the island Refuse me, deny me I'm pale and I'm weak Now I don't belong here anymore Cry for Tanelorn Still I fear the voices Cry for Tanelorn No more fear, no voices Cry for Tanelorn Into the void this journey ends I cry for Tanelorn The dawn comes crashing down Into the void The trouble of many I've seen It's coming to an end Here's my last stand The torture at last Will be gone with the past Infinity, where will I go? Into the fire Curse me In war Into the fire Everything is gone It's your blood I desire The last soul I require Right after all the damage will be gone And here I Cry for Tanelorn Still I fear the voices Cry for Tanelorn No more fear, no voices "Feeding my void Feeding my void Here at the edge, I claim your soul" Cry for Tanelorn The dawn comes crashing down Into the void Stormbringer All hail Stormbringer

00:15:17 Road of No Release Dead girl: Please, sister, wake me up You've traveled far Release my mind Sing this song of mine Save me from drowning Quick, cast your spell on me I sense you're finally getting near Can you hear me crying? I've got to break the silence The lover: I know they're out there Play hide and seek Watching My love is waste The storyteller: My worst dreams I can't leave them I'm the black queen Here in barren lands The fox: When you walk down You may not find relief Will you go down there? I wonder Wonder why All: Here on this road of no release Pale reign of misery That even time cannot erase On through my sorrows Life will go on Dead girl: Words and dreams unite I hear an ancient voice It's calling me When death and life collide I hear an ancient song The ressurrected girl: Deep inside I can't find myself Can't remember at all The past and my strange end Come guide me now Can't remember my fall There's something There's someone It ain't over now The void - there's more to it It's real and still alive The necromancer: I will find you Slipping away I'll bind you Still I conquer the world Take him away All: Here on this road of no release Pale reign of misery That even time cannot erase On through my sorrows Life will go on The fox: My last steps Can't leave her I, the old fox Will take revenge Old man: I cannot heal your fear and doubts The void, it waits for us Still after all the ghosts are howling You cannot run, you cannot hide The void, it waits for us Still after all there is no choice All: Here on this road of no release Pale reign of misery That even time cannot erase On through my sorrows Life will go on The girl: Find me, I'm drowning Then once again There's nothing left I fear There's nothing more to say And no more games to play To play

00:21:48 Ride Into Obsession Come, I show you the end You're damned Cause no one can defy me Just watch these maddened creatures Like you they all once reached out A war to win But I'm gonna burn this vision down Call me the father of lies Just watch these saddened creatures They've turned you into their savior You hold your ground Until your last breath You'll twist then turn And now you're falling down The battle rages on And forever and ever The wheel will turn Let ages come and go The wheel will turn now The wheel will turn Another ride into obsession I am reborn The wheel will turn now And I am driven into obsession All these dying men Try to understand They all followed the sign It's a cycle's end There's no hope For a while From the ashes arise Can't you save her Enjoy the flames So precious, so pure And you try You're sure to fail And madness Is the price you've to pay Unholy grounds Witness your last breath The cycle ends And you're stumbling The battle will go on And forever and ever It's raging on Let ages come and go The wheel will turn now The wheel will turn Another ride into obsession I am reborn The wheel will turn now And I'm driven to obsession Through the flames you'll see me You'll be mine, believe me This is the moment I long for Wake up there's storm to face and Right now while the land lies bleeding It's me, I conquer your soul Still I'll be on my way Oh, light, let me out of here I pray And over and over and over again There is no beginning No end This war, it still goes on And forever and ever I will return Let ages come and go The wheel will turn now The wheel will turn Another ride into obsession I am reborn The wheel will turn now And I'm driven to obsession Light - so serene True source reign over me There's no end and There's no beginning "You will never be alone"

Wheel of Time is so epic it triggered the biggest literary rabbit hole of my life! I ended up reading not only all 15 WoT books, but basically everything from Brandon Sanderson which is easily twice that 😅

[@Bazscoobz]

Did you read Elric of Melnibone after reading Tanelorn?! I absolutely suggest it

Maybe if the series wasn't so epic, the author would have lived long enough to finish it. . .

I grabbed this album after hearing the song inside "Sacred 2" back when that came out, and I still regularly play this album. Its really f'n good. Honestly both the game and this album aged quite good.

[@Ultima228]

Everyone here is like "oh Blind Guardian made me read The Wheel of Time" meanwhile i'm just like "The Wheel of Time made me come to listen to Blind Guardian". I deeply loved Robert Jordan's books, and when Sanderson took up the pen to finish the epic i feel like he did it true justice. Unlike what Amazon did >.>

[@jimjimson6208]

Same. Favourite series ever. Sanderson knocked it out of the park I think. A lot of the time I actually forgot that I wasn't reading Jordan's work.

[@HaraldinChina]

Tanelorn has always been one of the most fascinating topos of Blind Guardian. The solo starting 13:00 is outerworldly, if only that part would last longer

I love Blind Guardian. I love the songs on this album. Remember ordering both the album and the Voice In The Dark single around the time it was released. I hate with passion the job that was done on mixing/mastering. Honestly, nothing switched me away from Blind Guardian the way that all the clipping/distortion happen in Wheel Of Time. Whoever is responsible for this ruined a masterpiece. Most of the culprits listed below, if you never heard them I both feel happy and sorry for you. Starting with the orchestral version, as it does not have vocals to switch your attention away from the issues: 1:18:02 1:18:22 1:18:59 1:19:01 - two in quite quick succession 1:19:15 - another few next to each other 1:19:25 - same as above 1:19:30 Album version: 1:02:17 1:02:31 1:02:36 1:03:05 1:03:14 up to 17 1:03:29 - 2 more 1:03:37 - 3 more 1:03:44 - 2 more

I wish they'd tone down the plastic orchestral parts and limit them to intros and outros. Blind Guardian's problem has been quantity over quality since Nightfall basically. Just layer after layer of unnecessary stuff crammed into the songs instead of focusing on a few GOOD riffs and melodies. It's like listening to several songs simultaneously and neither of them is very good. :(

"masturbatory studio flagrancy" to be specific,, i said thst my first play through of Night at the opera. but ive found that theyve actually ascended. my all time favorite song is on ANATO. i never expected it.
