@@goodfty are you kidding me? How about all the rap metal crap? I can't even listen to octane radio on Sirius anymore. It's pure s**t. You should wake up.
Schaffer was on another level in the late 90s and early 2000s. 1995 was Burnt Offerings, 1996 was Dark Saga, 1998 was Something Wicked, 2000 was D&W with Hansi, then 2001 was Horror Show. Riff lord.
X2 i Discovery this álbum in the same year 2005 when D&W was realesed touch by the crimson king. Now i will see in this 2019 on wacken festival with my girlfriend both chilean metal fans. We're so exited! This track it's amazing
Same! I just turned 34. When I discovered this band it was exactly what I was searching for. I couldn’t believe I had finally found it. Demons and wizards are absolutely perfect. I can never get enough. I think it was 2004 when I discovered them. Crimson king was my first tune then terror train. After I found both albums and have listened a million times.
It's hard to believe It's been nearly 15 years ago, since the first release. John and Hansi never dissapoint me In any of the work they do but to together they are an unstoppable force!!
I remember the first time I heard this song. So brilliant, because Iced Earth isnt so melodic and Guardian dont had the Schaffer riffs...Was a great symbiosis!!!
I've stained the land Milleniums I've prayed Now I know there's no release Since paradise is lost I hold a crown I know your name But I am just your Fallen angel of doom Thus heaven denies Refused for all times I am not guilty at all Deadlands, Wastelands Darkness will cover my mind And oblivion shall reign I made up my mind And oblivion shall reign through the night Deadlands, Wastelands Darkness will cover my mind And oblivion shall reign Still we are one, you and I Realize, I did what you wanted me to The lack of pure souls and the fading light It's me you blame First there was light Then came the night Cruel nothingness Thus heaven denies Refused for all times I am not guilty at all Deadlands, Wastelands Darkness will cover my mind And oblivion shall reign I made up my mind And oblivion shall reign through the night Deadlands, Wastelands Darkness will cover my mind And oblivion shall reign Hope turns to despair There's no one in these barren lands The lust for light I'm sure that it will fade It will fade Spiritus Sanctus The lust for light I'm sure that it will fade Spiritus Sanctus Eternal hell
I just found out about these guys like a week ago, I was blown away. How did I not know this existed. Anyways what's even more awesome is I found out they are performing in my city in a couple days! I bought tickets immediately and asked a pal to go, I'm stoked for this show man!
I love this song, one of the best songs from Demons & Wizards. Hansi's voice is epic and powerfull, however the third album until 2020.... I look forward to hearing it.
Jon: How metal are you? Hansi: betrays and denounces him for doing absolutely nothing wrong and sides with the commie tyrants. P. D. PHUCK hansi, cowardly garbage poser.
Como pasa el tiempo, veinte años ya. Recuerdo como si fuese ayer cuando compré este disco y lo escuché por primera vez. Uno de los mejores de la historia del metal para mí, sin duda. Con una ambientación oscura, letras y melodías únicas y mucho talento. Una obra maestra.
One if the best albums ever.Everytime i listen to it it instantly throws me back in time and makes me nostalgic af. It has all, low points, high points hymnic epicness its just something else...
These remastered albums are available on amazon right now (the deluxe versions with bonus tracks are not)....I bought both albums, and can confirm that in this new mix the guitars are cranked way up and sound wonderful, but the vocals have definitely been pushed back/lowered in the mix....not to an insane degree, but it is occasionally noticeable...the acoustic passages sound great, but once the heavy guitars/drums start blasting, the vocals tend to get a little bit lost....not a dealbreaker for me as a longtime fan, but just fyi for those curious as to how this sounds outside of youtube....that aside, I’m thrilled to support this band and am loving going through these albums once again!
Also the biggest problem iced earth broke up permanently. Because their vocalist decided to charge into the capitol. Now the iced earth label has been dropped, the drummer and I believe guitarist left and he’s facing prosecution. And even if Schaffer does some how escape prosecution blind guardian now wishes no longer to work with him(the mastermind and name of iced earth). Long story short (too late) Schaffer f@cked his music career.
@@Junkmeister The vocalist didn't break in. It was Jon himself. The Rhythm guitarist and band leader. Only Jon and drummer Brent Smedley are left. Luke Appleton (bassist), Jake Dreyer (lead guitarist), and Stu Block (Vocalist) left.
Love the remaster, great video, hats off to the label for giving jon and hansi's love child some much needed love. Can we a third album please? Loved this one so much and it meant so much to me its my backpeice.
que buenos recuerdos cuando descubrir este primer disco y flipe con las 7 u 8 primeras y se puso en lo mas alto de mis discos favoritos, ese aire a misticismo, medieval, a magia y historias de figata, sencillamente perfecto...
This is something special, something some metal fans have been waiting for since their teens. Live in the US..... seen both live many times now finally demons & wizards .... \m/ hail & kill \m/
I remember its' release day for purchase it as fast as possible. And the gig in BCN on 24/6/2000, l was there. Half of my life has already passed since then.
For DnD lovers.. I always feel this song is like the last boss just wiped everyone except the bard, who is singing this song. And he is slowly reviving everyone while being beaten and eaten bit by bit. His spirit is kept to be revived as a Lich..
Seriously love all of these guys! Been a fan of all of them for 28+ years, and I'm super excited for what will surely be their greatest work yet when they pump out their 3rd masterpiece. Hail Jon and Hansi both for one of metals best creations and clashes of sound! \m/
A song of 20 years ago and still is modern and powerful, that's Demons & Wizards !
Yes, this album is an instant classic !!
...20 years? Am I listening to 20 year old music? Holy fuck I just read the description... lol shows how much I pay attention to anything.
To be fair not much has changed in the last 20 years for this music to feel outdated
The remastered version sounds even better
@@goodfty are you kidding me? How about all the rap metal crap? I can't even listen to octane radio on Sirius anymore. It's pure s**t. You should wake up.
Demons & Wizards third album lets go!
William Hermanson it’s happening right?

@@SuperMario0972 August at Wacken for me. So excited to see them live ;)
DEEEEADDDLAAAAANDDDSS WAAAASTTEEELAAAANDDSSS DARKNESS WILL COVER MY MIND!!! AND OBLIVION SHALL REEEEEEEEEEIGN!!!!!
SO GOOD!!!!!!!

Iced earth and Blind guardian fused and made a beast more powerful than we could imagine.
Sounds like the Reckoning ;D
Come on! Iced earth suck...
@drealmerz7 z Hahahahah! the best heavy pop metal .... ok! yes
B.B krueger Are you fucking stoned, dude?
Crossover between iconic American Power Metal band an iconic European Power Metal band - what can go amazing?
This is my gardening muzak. I play it over and over. Jon we're behind you brother.
That chorus riff is on point. So crisp and thick and badass at the same time
Just when you thought everything is done and the song fades into silence, Hansi gives you one last chill with "eternal hell"
Schaffer was on another level in the late 90s and early 2000s. 1995 was Burnt Offerings, 1996 was Dark Saga, 1998 was Something Wicked, 2000 was D&W with Hansi, then 2001 was Horror Show. Riff lord.
I remember when i was 15 and discovered this band. Still some of the best metal I've ever heard and I'm almost 29 now! Ready for that third album!!
Same here! I bought it on vinyl the same year i heard it! Still one of my most precious items i own!
X2 i Discovery this álbum in the same year 2005 when D&W was realesed touch by the crimson king. Now i will see in this 2019 on wacken festival with my girlfriend both chilean metal fans. We're so exited! This track it's amazing

The ultimate super group revolving around the most amazing two bands in power metal. Best two albums in history. I can't wait for the third.

Ghost Of A Lion actually the first album was released in 1999. 20 years ago, not 15 ;)
20 years.
I m old
@@davidefuochetti1063 I know how you feel, It sux getting old.
Been listening to this album since high school, and I'm 36. Such a classic, and this song is always a good starter.
Same dude. 34
Same 36 here. I used to get made fun of because I liked shit like this.
@@ryo1549 Dude. Word.
Hehe, same here, 32
With you \m/.
I LOVE this song.
Blind Guardian are so good.
Iced Earth are so good.
Demons & wizards are our god.
Listen to Persuader
Reminds me of when I was 17 I had this Album. Was High as a Kite Every day jamming to this song.Hellyeah great memories.
This song was and is incredible...
Hansi's voice is always so ... Hansi xD I'm glad it never changed !
Hansi's vocals are absolutely flawless. I can't wait for this show.
I remember the first time I heard this song. So brilliant, because Iced Earth isnt so melodic and Guardian dont had the Schaffer riffs...Was a great symbiosis!!!
The most beautiful song ever.
Real music always takes you places. D&W are as real as it gets.
Please do a Fiddler on the Green version!!
They're remixing the whole album I think... but hell yeah, I fucking love Fiddler too. Even muy gf who is not into metal
Jon is killing it here. Such a good gallop.
I've stained the land
Milleniums I've prayed
Now I know there's no release
Since paradise is lost
I hold a crown
I know your name
But I am just your
Fallen angel of doom
Thus heaven denies
Refused for all times
I am not guilty at all
Deadlands, Wastelands
Darkness will cover my mind
And oblivion shall reign
I made up my mind
And oblivion shall reign through the night
Deadlands, Wastelands
Darkness will cover my mind
And oblivion shall reign
Still we are one, you and I
Realize, I did what you wanted me to
The lack of pure souls and the fading light
It's me you blame
First there was light
Then came the night
Cruel nothingness
Thus heaven denies
Refused for all times
I am not guilty at all
Deadlands, Wastelands
Darkness will cover my mind
And oblivion shall reign
I made up my mind
And oblivion shall reign through the night
Deadlands, Wastelands
Darkness will cover my mind
And oblivion shall reign
Hope turns to despair
There's no one in these barren lands
The lust for light
I'm sure that it will fade
It will fade
Spiritus Sanctus
The lust for light
I'm sure that it will fade
Spiritus Sanctus
Eternal hell
I'VE BEEN WAITING OVER A DECADE! HANSI KÜRSCH AND JON SCHAFFER ARE FINALLY BACK TOGETHER!
Wow. Conception and now Demons and Wizards? Yeah?
Did I step into a time warp?
😢😢😢😢 Sadly it was short lived
Amazing album! I bought it few years ago, in 2000. The guitar of John Schaffer is simply amazing and the voice of Ansi is fantastic, very epic!
I just found out about these guys like a week ago, I was blown away. How did I not know this existed. Anyways what's even more awesome is I found out they are performing in my city in a couple days! I bought tickets immediately and asked a pal to go, I'm stoked for this show man!
Finally Demons and Wizards is coming back around to the modern era. Can’t wait to see what’s in store on the upcoming album!
One of my favorite albums of all time! I can’t believe I’m finally going to see this live!
I love this song, one of the best songs from Demons & Wizards. Hansi's voice is epic and powerfull, however the third album until 2020.... I look forward to hearing it.
Hansi: How fast can you riff?
Jon: Hold my beer.
Jon is a RIFFMEISTER
@@chrispurse3931 this really deserves more likes lol, hope more peeps are listening to this in 2021

Still on my Playlist for damn sure.

PHUCK hansi, cowardly garbage poser.
I LOVE THIS EARLY STUFF FROM DEMONS AND WIZARDS[ POWER METAL WITH GROOVE AND A THRASHY ELEMENT, GREAT RIFFS, TOTAL CLASSIC, TIMELESS \~/ ☆☆☆☆☆ 5 STARS
MY ALL TIME FAVOURITE BAND CHEERS FROM LEBANON 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Como pasa el tiempo, veinte años ya. Recuerdo como si fuese ayer cuando compré este disco y lo escuché por primera vez. Uno de los mejores de la historia del metal para mí, sin duda. Con una ambientación oscura, letras y melodías únicas y mucho talento. Una obra maestra.
It's been 15 years already, maybe more, and I still can't stop myself from looping this chorus over and over everytime I listen to this song
I was about to say "this sounds like a mix between Iced Earth and Blind Guardian"
Then I read the description and realised why
I thought the same, then I read your comment and then I read the description and realized why
I cannot express how excited I am to finally see these guys. This was instantly one of my faves when I was in high school.
One if the best albums ever.Everytime i listen to it it instantly throws me back in time and makes me nostalgic af. It has all, low points, high points hymnic epicness its just something else...
Well done video!! You have remembered the faces of your fathers...
This album holds up so damn well... In my opinion one of the best musical collaborations in metal..
Lol can't believe it, after years and years I started to listen to D&W again and my favourite song of them gets a new video instantly. Cheers.
That is the remaster I've been waiting for! A killer one
I wonder how many times have I listenned to Fiddler on the green... This entire album is masterpiece!
Fiddler on the Green is one of my all-time favorite songs. It's such a beautiful and haunting masterpiece!
@@cdfox85 You are a man of taste!
I prefer path of glory as my fav song by them
This is great ...todays metal has fallen from the beaten path, Demons and Wizards has come to set things as they should be....
Hansi is such a voracious book reader! I hope to be like him when I'm his age. I wanna read Paradise Lost one day.
These remastered albums are available on amazon right now (the deluxe versions with bonus tracks are not)....I bought both albums, and can confirm that in this new mix the guitars are cranked way up and sound wonderful, but the vocals have definitely been pushed back/lowered in the mix....not to an insane degree, but it is occasionally noticeable...the acoustic passages sound great, but once the heavy guitars/drums start blasting, the vocals tend to get a little bit lost....not a dealbreaker for me as a longtime fan, but just fyi for those curious as to how this sounds outside of youtube....that aside, I’m thrilled to support this band and am loving going through these albums once again!
Well that's disappointing. Good the the original mix is already really good and didn't really need improvement.
What an absolute masterpiece.
awesome drawnings
Crazy epic album, loved it since it came out i will never get tired of this one
Give me more Give me More !!!!! Demonds and Wizards !!!!!! Great Work.
We aren't gonna get more music from these guys for 7 to 10 years, 5 with good behavior
probably never. D&W just broke up.
@@TheTeezmo not surprising. Their 3rd album was sub-par at best. It had nothing on the first two albums.
Also the biggest problem iced earth broke up permanently. Because their vocalist decided to charge into the capitol. Now the iced earth label has been dropped, the drummer and I believe guitarist left and he’s facing prosecution. And even if Schaffer does some how escape prosecution blind guardian now wishes no longer to work with him(the mastermind and name of iced earth).

You guys are awesome, you give me the same feeling I used to get listening to Iced Earth,Bind Gaurdian
...This was the album that got me started on both Iced Earth & Blind Guardian. Hope they do the other songs on the album as well!
They are re releasing the whole albums. They are already on Google play.
Jamming out to this right now. Prayers for Jon Schaffer. I'm behind you my friend.
"Hell!! It was about time!" to remaster this masterpiece!! Take my money!
Feliz cumpleaños Hansi Kursch, 53 años de genialidad, genioooo
2:58 Best Part
Love the remaster, great video, hats off to the label for giving jon and hansi's love child some much needed love. Can we a third album please? Loved this one so much and it meant so much to me its my backpeice.
Hansi confirmed that the 3rd album will be released in February 2020 :)
Fantastic True dream to see this project again
I seen them play at Graspop Metal Meeting 2019. By far the best show of the festival.
Absolutely amazing! Legendary! Clean part reminds on Damien from Iced Earth's Horror Show album \m/
Oh this vocal... the best of the best

holy shit balls, this takes me back to when I used to get hyped listening to D&W whilst playing Halo 2 multiplayer on xbox live!
i don't love the remix, but i'm glad that demons and wizards are getting some love, they're so underrated
I was 2 years old when this band was formed in 1997. I'm now 29. Something fun to think about.
Favorite album since years, never aged !
Takes me back to making mix cds in middle school. This and Thunderhorse were must adds.
Fantastic video, never knew there was a remaster!
Seriously love all of these guys! Been a fan of all of them for 28+ years, and I'm super excited for what will surely be their greatest work yet when they pump out their 3rd masterpiece. Hail Jon and Hansi both for one of metals best creations and clashes of sound! \m/
I am going to see them in Minnesota.
Great video man !!

Excelente Banda!. Saludos desde Argentina!!.
Gut gemacht dass Video dass Lied passt super dazu
Metal at its purest form.

Ein gutes Lied.Super
The song of a soul lost in purgatory, chillingly deep.
How I wished Iced Earth played this live when Barlow was the singer
Good groupe,and good song !!
This song never dies
I Remember checking these guys out back in the day on a Power Metal Compilation Vol.1 Video!!!
Yeah, Awesome Band!! ;)
My dreams will come true this summer! My 2 heroes finally togheter again!
Why have i never heard of these guys 🤘👌
such an underrated group
I can't stop listening to this amazing song
Prator's double bass play in this song is simply insane!
The thumbnail designer should get a medal
Getting some Iced Earth vibes, cool stuff!
There's a reason for that.
LOVE this album. This was better than what he was writing for Iced Earth at the time.
I haven't heard this in years. I wish I still had my old copy of the debut album. Maybe I'll have to pick up the re-issue!
Spotify is your best friend for this!
@@DeathcoreHusky Yup! I did find it on Spotify. ^_^
Melhor álbum todos tempos
Still some of the best metal to ever be released!
Me 3 minutes ago: holy shit this band is lit
Me now: aw fuck, this song is older than me
