LYRICS:
Will they remember?
Meet the artificial foe at war
Will claim the stars
Stand up and fight
There’s a price to pay
I can hear the death bell ring
Be no fool, better think twice
Fire
It all starts again
Cylons seal our fate
Our legacy
We're in the limelight of God
We’re in the limelight
Of it all
We’re in the limelight
It’s too late
It’s at stake
We’re the damned
They drowse
They hide from themselves
Inside
Can we break the cycle?
Reveal the old secrets
Behold The Watcher in the sky
Find a new home
Roam in space
Let us flee into the unknown
As it seems
They’re still dreaming
The Architects of Doom
They will say
Just keep your faith
Beyond the veil
We’ll find the blue star
And they will say
That there’s treason
The system’s out of control
Yes, they say
There was a plan
So cruel
We better learn to understand
Now overcome your inner fear
Clear your mind
Rip off their mask of treason
Meet the artificial foe
Recall
Sacred scrolls
Hold wicked forms of truth
Wave after wave
They come in
Gods of a new line
They’re in control
Gods of a new kind
There’s no hope
But the miracle one
The crime of the century
Madness has grown
Don’tdownsize the deeds of the genius
Meet the trial of gods
The Watcher in the sky
Feels no sorrow
Feels no shame
Feeds the beast
Feeds the insane
As it seems
They’re still dreaming
The Architects of Doom
They will say
Despite the light
Behold the beauty of the black star
And they will say
That there’s treason
Their vision’s ready to grow
They will say
That there is hope
We can prevail
We will survive
Seek the sign
Find Jupiter’s Eye
Reason is in control
Remove the prisoner
And violate her mind
There’s heresy in every age and time
Brings down our idols and ideals
There’s no grace in war
On trial
Pure Hybrid Child
The Final Five
Revealed now
We’re hiding our secrets
Behold
The Watcher in the sky
Reign of fire
Reign of blood
The purge, it is not over yet
They will say better dream on
The Architects of Doom
They will say
Just keep your faith
Beyond the veil
We’ll find the blue star
They will say
Better dream on
It’s nowhere safe
You should know
They will say
We all are facing doom
The harbinger of death bears truth
Hybrid Child
Hybrid Child
Hybrid Child
Stay alive
Be the sacrificial lamb
Once more

#BlindGuardian #TheGodMachine #Metal #ArchitectsOfDoom
His voice is unbelievable. The harmonies are absolutely stunning. He is unmatched in metal as far as sheer technical ability goes. His range, tone, distortion, vibrato and projection are one in a million. This guy was born to sing. Kick ass tune!
Agreed, Blind Guardian is amazing!
Just wish he could do it live now. He's so bad live now it's sad
@@tylercherneski1805 He still can but he has to be careful with long tours. See his WWW 2020 concert dude. He is not bad live. that's bs
@carlosluismendez7392 yeah that concert was after like 6 months of not singing at all. He's good for about 3 shows then he's toast.
@@tylercherneski1805 lol he was very good at the demons and wizard tour pal. Just stop with your crap. And btw Hansi is human and he can get sick.
I have a huge respect for him after singing day after day myself. That shit is madness.
The God machine is basically a fusion of their speed metal days, power metal, and the bombastic direction that started on a night at the opera.
Exactly! A best of Guardian ^^ Love it!
Yup and I'm here for it! They took out everything that i hated from a night at the opera and onward and kept all the stuff i loved. can't wait for the release! oh wait it was released a few days ago! omg yes!
it's more progressive than bombastic.
Yes
And it is basically my album of the year... did not saw this coming❤️🤘❣️
This is one of the best metal songs of the year. Hell, The God Machine probably has like three tracks in the top 10 best metal songs of 2022. What a great album
100% agree. The opening four are such killer tunes.
Voted best album of 2022 by Metal Archives users.
We had a blast producing this!
Here are some infos on the probs we used in the video:
1968 Telefunken Magnetophon 201 Deluxe with custom tape reels
Antique Star Maps from 1905
Vintage Sextant
Vintage Sun Compass
Customized Robes
Worth the effort 100%
Excellent experience! Fits the song great!!!
Unexpected, brilliant and fun. Well done!
For those curious, this song is inspired in the Battlestar Galatica novel.
TV series* (1978) first book didn't release till a year later (1979)
@@drafezard7315 but looks like a Iluminatti Videoclip Atmosphere
@@igogommes Correct, I guess its based on the conevention of the five cylon models when they meet to plan cylons warplans. During the modern series (2004 - 2009) they are always showed in such a mysterious setting
They are the reason I started reading Tad Williams. Otherland is one of my favorite songs.
@@igogommes Looks more like a Dr. Von Doom comic.
Being a Blind Guardian fan is bliss. They work so hard and they continuously release stuff. BG, Twilight Orchestra, Demons & Wizards. God! I do right choices!
Demons & Wizards doesn't exist anymore and it was only Hansi involved in this project, not the whole band.
@@condenadometal Sorry?
@@TheSkilfingar thats not 100% correct, because Marcus and Frederic were also Members of the Live Band of Demons and Wizards…
@@karlgustav1346 Yeah, live.
@@TheSkilfingar yes so they were involved in the project, but it really doesnt matter too much, since the band is (probably) gone forever
Blind Guardian never dissapoint! So excited for the new album and hope to see you live soon!
In my opinion they shouldn't have published almost half of the album before final release. The problem is, that's the better half, thus the final product looks like well-known bangers + some fillers. "Architects of Doom" may be good, but there is still 4 tracks remaining. Also the album is somewhat short, comparing to the recent band discography.
@@lufix4969 I disagree, the rest of the tracks are amazing
@@Nickesponja Ok, that's good for you in that case.
I love the new LP but after 7 years 9 songs are not much.
@@Danny-87 If they were all 3 minutes and there wasn't the orchestra album...yes....but like this, it's actually almost a lot. BG work always slow in the studio

What is this song about?
@@magnus0163 Battlestar Galactica, there's several references along the way especially "Cylons", "Jupiter's Eye", and the overall story implied. But BG sometimes takes a bit of a free interpretation soo this may apply to something else interely.
/m/
@@LANihilus The Final Five... The Harbinger of Death would be Starbuck...
that little riff or something around 4:06 - *chef's kiss*
Hansi's voice is just becoming one of the best in the business. Already was, but the longevity of it? Amazing
becoming? he is one of the best metal singers since the mid 90s now. Somewhere far beyond was already very impressive and then imaginations was a vocal masterpiece.
@@HeavyMetalGamingHD damn it's like you purposefully misread what I said, wild
@@iliketurtles999 sry. I actually misread your comment
@@HeavyMetalGamingHD no prob man, we are all fans of BG! Keep rocking \m/
He to me sounds a bit like Blackie Lawless.
16 years ago i was listening to Tokyo Tales while my family were saying "is just a phase" 😂. The consistency and improvement of quality through out the years is amazing, and most important, the spirit passed test of time, did not faded or shattered, much o contrary, it was refined * Fanboyance intensifies *
So say we all.
Wonderful tribute to Galactica and best Guardian album since At The Edge Of Time.
Beyond the Red Mirror is also great 😁 (if you listen to it enough times).
Best album ever, imaginations from the other side.
It's all eras of Blind Guardian in a single song. Pretty fucking good.
You might be on to something there
You mean "Battalions of Blind Tales Far Beyond the Other Side in Middle-Opera in the Myth of Time Mirror Machine"?
@@radioactive_radek Precisely.
This is something absolutely mind-blowing and unexpected. Need more time to process 😬😬😬
Appreciate that Blind Guardian finally found a way to good music videos and production of themselves. Good costumes and amazing embience. Dear Bards, please, make more music videos with stories in the future.
And about the song... Well, it's even more intense than other singles. Fast and furious. Bravo!
I don't like music videos and metal videos are even worse than the rest but I would love if Blind guardian did more videos because that way they would be more popular and more people could listen to their music. With one good video they would gain a lot of love from people who didn't know them 😁
After listening to this song 49 times, I can confidently say it slaps
i just needed two hundred times :)
Best power metal band ever
yeah! sounds like the first time i listened to them 20 years ago, to battalions of fear / somewhere far beyond!!! love it!!!
The video is something completely different and I never would've expected something like this from the bards. But it looks incredibly good!! Good job to everyone involved!
Thank you!
Same reaction here 😊
Ghost rip off, yep!
the solo guitar is incredible
Essa é a melhor banda do mundo. Nenhuma supera quando se fala em CONSISTÊNCIA. Pesado, erudito, técnico, melódico, perfeito.
Falou tudo, meu amigo!
Pra mim, Iron Maiden e Blind Guardian tem essas características
Thanks for returning to play a more "in the face" Power Metal, guys. This song is incredible strong and kinda remind me a lot of Somewhere Far Beyond and Imaginations From the Other Side atmosphere, as well as a lot of moments in the new album, which is pretty good, by the way.
Theatre of Pain comes to mind. ..
Best song of the album together with 'Damnation'. Amazing work BG!
Wow I just realize that I'm in love with this band for almost 30 years now! Amazing how they've kept up. Which other band from the 80s and 90s is still delivering with each album?
Something about Blind Guardian's music, style and atmosphere just touches me to my very core. I hold such an intense love for them that I find hard to put into words. Ever since first playing _Sacred 2_ and actually _meeting_ (well "meeting", but still) Hansi, André, Marcus and Frederik I've been in love. Listening to «Sacred Worlds» and watching that _epic_ music video over and over, showing it to all my friends, discovering their other stuff (first song I listened to outside of _Sacred 2_ was «Lord of the Rings»), buying _Robot Unicorn Attack: Heavy Metal_ instead of the original and being Team Inferno in RUA2 exclusively because of Blind Guardian and «Battlefield»… A dream of mine is to one day own every single Blind Guardian release on vinyl. Oh, that's going to be one marvellous day, my friends.
Hansi's voice and delivery still gets me like no other… Absolutely _wonderful_ stuff, just _wonderful,_ and I cannot begin to express how much joy it brings me that Blind Guardian are still around, still as fantastic as they have always been.
If you love the Bards you're a keeper. Beware outside, no everybody understand...
Another reason why Blind guardian are my favourite band. I was late to the party with this brilliant outfit, discovering them when At The Edge Of Time came out and it blew me away. Immediately bought everything I could and played catch up. Been my top band ever since...I just love everything about them and the awesome vibey creativity. Thanks for another killer album guys ❤
I haven’t been a fan long (I think? The one good thing my ex did). Ever since I first heard them, I have been hooked.
The most intense and heavy BG songs since a long time, this is a wonderful album, a modern old school BG offering, old fan are rewarded this time, thank you so much guys \m/
Time and time again a masterpiece. The new album is killer ❤️🤘🔥
"Be no fool, better think twice". I listened four times and the song is fire.
This could be their best album ever.
great song and I love the fact that this song is about Battlestar Galactica
Blind Guardian are definitely NOT resting on their well deserved laurels here. This has to be the coolest video they've ever released. The sound is perfect modern classic BG, even harkening back to Night at the Opera while ushering in a new era of fan favorites and instant classics. This song is the PERFECT example of why they are the force to be reckoned with they've been for DECADES!!!!
This song is an absolute banger & the album is 10 out of 10 stars
This band is getting better. This album is more than perfect 🤘🏻🤘🏻
That transition at around 2:57 is just so perfect i could losten to that prechorus over and over again
1:20 reminds me to the awesome "And The Maiden Spoke" solo from Nevermore
Loving all the blind guardian vids!! Keep em coming 🙏🙏
What a banger! And the Video is absolutely amazing, loving both so much ❤
Thank you :)
Embarrassing Ghost rip off
@@tannerboyle8429 Actually the inspiration for the look comes from old science fiction B-Movies from the 60s/70s.
It's been a while since I listen to Power Metal in general, I didn't thought I'd find this gem right away.
I am so proud of them! They are brilliant!
2022 as coisas vão voltar ao normal
dai chega 2022 e o blind guardian lança um clipe futurista kkk
Mas ainda com musica inspirada em science fiction...
🤣
Baseada em battlestar galactica então tá tudo normal kkk
Simply awesome!!! They look like a fusion of Marvel´s Doctor DOOM and the Round 6 masked characters! Loved the concept and the entire video, the stage and clothing design could follow this easily! Can´t wait for the new album and tour!
been listening to BG for aeons and this just great sounds like a bit of early years they really are a great metal band they never go below par and hansi,s voice still awesome
This song is... just... soooo precise! They know!!! Of course! The plan... we have to be awake! Thanks for this song 💪
Pretty much one of the best songs ever
Blind guardian awesome fantastic band with amazing vocals and fantastic guitarists and awesome drumming 🥁 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎤🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼
Endlich mal ein wieder ein Blind Guardian Video das mehr als Lyrics oder die Band im Proberaum in Schwarz/Weiß zeigt :D
A great song with the BG old vibes
Awesome band with amazing vocals and fantastic guitarists and awesome drumming 🥁 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎤💀💀💀💀🤘🏻💀🤘🏻 👍🏻💀👍🏻
The title of the song is a perfect description of me whenever I play Minecraft haha
Best Blind Guardian album in years... Welcome back bards!
Looks like Black Metal Guardian.
Best Album since "Nightfall".
That was Absolute FIRE 🤘💥🤘.
Thanks for Join Us Here on Nuclear Blast Records Channel will see You Tomorrow so Enjoyed.
Man this song slaps! Some of the best heavy metal I’ve ever heard🤘
Bravo Bravo well done Blind Guardian! ❤
Parece que vuelven a sus principios, menuda sorpresa para bien, hacia mucho que había perdido la esperanza, menudo alegrón 🤘🤘
Si bien a mí me gustó lo que hicieron en los últimos discos, se extrañaba esa caña de antaño, y por dicha la retomaron para esta ocasión. Este nuevo disco es FENOMENAL, amigo! Disfrutalo al máximo.
La gente escucha tremolo picking y se alucina. Ellos tienen rolas como esta en todos los discos que han sacado, en todos. El disco es progresivo.
Lo que se puede sacar de esta rola es que Hansi aun conserva bastante fuerza en esa Voz como para cantar con cojones. De hecho, en este disco le iba a meter vocales de Death Metal pero a los otros miembros de la banda no les agradaba la idea y por eso no las hay.
@@carlosluismendez7392 una pena
Und wieder liefern Blind Guardian ein Meisterwerke ab.✊️👊👍
Clean guitar intro was starcraft music af and I'm here for it
This is at the same time the Blind Guardian song that sounds the most like a Blind Guardian song and also that sounds the least like a Blind Guardian song. I'm confused and can't wait to hear the rest of the album!
I can't beieve that , blind guardian roots come back
Awesome video! Architects of Doom dressed like Dr.Doom. Great!
Piss and vinegar for the architects of doom. Clever video and the song is very Blind Guardian.
The new album is awesome, they again redefined what modern metal of blind guardian is - and dont let me start with this overly amazing video \m/
Este disco es una obra maestra
A song about Battlestar Galactica is about 40 some years overdue.
Best BG album since Opera.
A Twist in the Myth, At the Edge of Time and Beyond the Red Mirror are also masterpieces 😁
SENSATIONAL as usual BG in their best shape
Awesome song Awesome video just love Blind Guardian ❤️ 🤘🤟🤟💯💯
Very unexpected. Must see this two or three times. But much much better than Valhalla or mirror mirror.
Their best record in years!
Amazing song, que bom o clássico sonido do blind guardian
One more masterpiece!
This is probably my favorite by them
I think that I need a new change of trousers now
The best song of this excellent album!
Wow, has a Judas Priest sound to it, love it!
My favorite song ♥
Imperial Triumphant approves this video.
Always great!
Fast so gut wie früher !!! Richtig geiles Album-weiter so Jungs😍
He's got a nice voice
What did I just witness?!! Whatever it is, wonderful germanic metallic magic was involved... and I LOVED it! \m/
Vi amo con tutto il mio cuore!!!! BG FOREVER!!
Your new album is so good🤘 Thank you so much for all your good music!!
I was thinking "why the masks" but then i thought twice about the name of the song "architects of doom", and noticed that the masks look a lot like Dr. Doom from Fantastic Four. Very nice, and great song! :)
The song is about Battlestar Galactica though
@@TrajGreekFire lol
@@TrajGreekFire Sorry im still catching up with Star Trek. But once im caught up ill probably move on to Battlestar 👍
já ouvi 10 X e não decorei a música. Blind Guardian a banda mais confusa musicalmente. Amo ❤
Always awesome to hear them with the same quality as always 😍
