Demons & Wizards sound basically like Iced Earth with Blind Guardian vocals to me, which trust me is really NOT a bad thing as I love 'em both! But to be honest I have'nt heard much of their music but I've seen the artwork for the first album and heard bits and pieces of their music and I must say its decent stuff! I may buy their albums at some point.

I've listened to all of the Iced Earth album. But, I haven't listened to all of Blind Guardian albums.

You really should dude, they're amazing. Their first two albums were sort of Classic Power Metal, then just Power Metal after that. In their own way of course. They've written some brilliant stuff though. It's hard to recommend some albums too, because basically all of them are good.

Demons And Wizards artwork is quite good isn't it. I particularly like it on their first album. I don't think they sound exactly like Iced Earth though, the differ in a way that makes the two bands more unique than that.

I was thinking about getting Nightfall On Middle-Earth or Somewere Far Beyond. Which one do you think is better? I love Demons & Wizards artwork, there first album's artwork is exillent . Demons & Wizards don't sound exactly like Iced Earth, but there are some simularities.

@Surma: I don't think that Demons and Wizards is so close to Iced Earth and Blind Guardian... I think the music is really calmer and more melodic than Iced Earth, that's why I believe that they deserve to live. At the same time, I found them more inspired than common Blind Guardian... but it's just my opinion.

@Jake : I'm not a huge Blind Guardian fan, but the only albums I really enjoy are 1- Imaginations from the other side, and 2- Nightfall in middle earth.

So maybe you could try "Nightfall" in my opinion.

For me it's the only interesting album with Imaginations, but I'm sure that Blind Guardian fans won't agree with that hehe...

Haha, of course we won't ;-) Nightfall In Middle Earth is an excellent album, and is one of their best. It's the album that most people consider to be their best. I still like some of their other earlier stuff just as much though. You can read my Nightfall In Middle Earth review though if you want.
