I can honestly say I've never listened to a full Blind Guardian album. Shame on me.

I haven't heard them all but as far as I can tell they have nothing better than Follow the Blind.

You and me both. Can't say I'm in a hurry either though. |

so to keep the thread rolling did some of you not vote for nightfall because of all the interludes and how they interupt the flow of the album or because you think it doesn't have the best songs in general?

Both. Don't get me wrong, I like a good amount of the songs on it, but it falls in at about 4th for me.

Battalions of Fear is essential speed metal. The other early ones if you like that style |

Battalions of Fear, Tales from the Twilight World, and Somewhere Far Beyond...not really sure on the order. Exceptional band though, through Nightfall, and only fags don't think so. They're one of few 'gateway' bands that are legitimately at the peak of their particular niche.

I voted Imaginations.
Blind Guardian haven't made a great album in a very long time.
