The best BG CD?

This CD was my first introduction to Blind Guardian after reading a review in Metal Maniacs. While listening to it for the first time, I realized I never heard anything like it up to that point in time. I was blown away. I was speechless. I coulnd't believe what I had just heard - it was so f'in epic! Layer upon layer of sound that melded together perfectly, nothing was out of place. I consider BG one of my favorite bands, and I believe this is their best piece of work so far. So of their older stuff comes close, but I think this was the perfect disc for them sonically and lyrically which I think they will have a hard time matching again. Highly recommended for any fan of bombastic metal.
