The 3:15 - 4:15 worths more than the whole discography of some artists.
Honestly Blind Guardian needs to bring this vocal group on tour so they can do more songs that Hansi just can't do alone. But goddamn, the energy here. You can *tell* the time is right for Demons & Wizards to be back, like you can feel the energy and passion Jon and Hansi both have, wanting to be there performing like this. They haven't looked this proud to be performing music live with their own respective bands in close to a decade.
Jon comeback ! We're with you. Shame on century media. Iced Earth Rules, resistance has always been the hallmark of the group.
I love Hansi's voice, it's powerful, it reminds me of Imaginations from the other side years. I'm looking forward to hearing the new album on February, 21th of 2020.

Hansi’s scream at 11:33 - almost perfectly replicating the original from when he was 20 years younger - proves we’re seeing Jesus at work. I love Bruce Dickinson but in his 50s he can’t come anywhere near to replicating the high notes from the early albums. Hansi is just on another level. Unbelievable.
