The man in black fled across the desert and the gunslinger followed...
I'm relieved that it's actually bullets going across the screen and not the casings and all.
Stephen King has to hear this song! It's about his Gunslinger Roland! Awesome!
It's incredible how a mere side project ends up as some of the finest and most unique metal of all time. Hope to hear as much epic stuff on the new album
What new album?
@@AgentFour they will Release a New Album in 2020 i think.
@@ohnenamen22 Yeah that's what I heard also
Yeah, sometimes it works out that way. Another that comes to mind is Cain's Offering, members of Stratovarius and Sonata Arctica, two great albums so far.
@@IcedDog I've never heard about that project. But Cain's Offering is a super badass name! I'll check it out for sure
LONG DAYS AND PLEASANT NIGHTS TO YOU!
MAY IT DO YA FINE, SAY THANKYA
RaiKov and May you have twice as many my friend.
Till me we again in the clearing at the end of the path
Thankee-sai
Yar, and twice as many to yours.
@@jonmyers8681 finally someone that can speak English. Thank-ya is not a word in the other realm
I always wondered what Stephen King's opinion was about this album back in the day.
I think I heard he was really into heavy metal, so there is a huge probability he is liking it !
Stephen King is a known metalhead. I'm sure he's heard this... at least I hope he has. The album as a whole isn't the best but there's some truly killer tracks on it regardless.
I'm sure he loves it, especially considering the quality of the music. This whole album is badass, as are the books.
@@jonmyers8681 I have to agree. The books are some of the greatest stories ever told, and this album is just as killer today as it was back in 2005.
@@JzelMoniK hes specifically named anthrax metallica and megadeth in his novels. specifically anthrax and megadeth in book 3 of the dark tower
I love every single song of Demons & Wizards and I am so glad they came back to Spotify with a Remastered version of their albuns, I headbang to them since 1999.
Roland would be pleased !! You have not forgotten the faces of your fathers !
GOD, FUCKING SPEED!
all hail the crimson king
Oh discordia!
Touched by the crimson king touched by the savior
Long live Mordred.
Razorfist showed it in his arizona vs guns video. I am pleased
FOR THE GLORY OF TANITH
FOR THE MEMORY OF VERGHAST
AND FOR THE THE FURY OF BELLADON
Can't wait for the Fiddler.
Jon Schaffer - the "WRIST of DEATH". Awesome and tight riffing! Great song! \m/ \m/
One of my favorite guitarists from a rhythm and composition standpoint. Tone, texture, crispness of delivery, just one of the absolute best.
And yes, I'm biased because of my Avatar and Username lol! 😜
wouldnt the wrist of death be more appropriately belonging to hetfield? this is more like the whole arm of death, unless youve never played metal sorry not trying to sound like im insulting you
@@Abc-tx4zr Schaffer is a much better rhythm player than Hetfield.
@@carlosluismendez7392 creeping is more difficult than any tremolo picking Schaffer does barely any one ever plays it properly
Jon Schaffer! My King and hero
Whenever somebody asks me what The Dark Tower is, a big smile crosses my face as I play them this song first before going into it
Demons and Wizards fled across CZcams, and I followed them...

I want a painting of Hansi like that for my house.
Thank you, Razorfist. Cool song :)
Melodic raw, energetic goodness. This is a game changer.
I am so hyped for the new album

It's going to be amazing
Amazing ... It's hard to spoil a good album .. Hansi God

Are you sure? Hell is repetition, so...
What a voice !!!!!amazing album

perhaps we used the same portal
Not a portal, a door.
All things serve the beam.
Stop this mystery and say soon: Demons & Wizards will launch a CD WITH NEW SONGS ! It's going to be the best of the year ! 🤘😎🤘
January 2020 is the tentative release date for the new album
What mystery? The new album has been announced for a while now
Their new album is out. It rocks!
Can't wait to see them in Toronto 🤘
I wish they would come west dont want to go to to just to see them
Death for his soul-kin and blood-kin, but never ever for him. Damn him.

Say thank ya, for the beams are safe
Amazing
WOW!
Sound like Precious Jerusalem... but heavier... I LOVE IT!!! \m/
amazing
Thankee sai!
The last dark tower book i,ve read was the wolves of calla,i need to get to song of sussannah soon.
Song of Sussannah is probably my least favorite out of the 7 books, but the Dark Tower is really quite good! Wolves of Calla is still personally my overall favorite, though. The Dark Tower has a pretty satisfying and appropriate ending.
@@hectortheking3619 I enjoyed the wolves of the calla. But wizard and glass was an absolute delight. Almost perfect.
@Rodrigo The problem with Wizard and Glass for me personally was that it felt like the past of Roland dragged on too long at a certain point. Sure, it was cool to know more about Roland, but I was absolutely hooked on the present. For me, it had a really strong start with Blaine, and a very strong end once Roland's story ends. I'm glad you got more enjoyment out of that one than I did, though!
@@hectortheking3619 I loved it exactly because of Roland and Susan story. The more western vibe. It,s basically a flashback book. Like 90% of it is flashback,so i get why that would be a problem to some people,but i loved it.
Read and reread The Dark Tower...because ka is a wheel.
Well done!
Awesome video, now if we can just get an awesome fiddler on the green =)
Holy Shit!
Dark Tower + Demons & Wizards!!!
Yep, was listening to the albums whilst reading the Dark Tower, definitely made the experience even more amazing
Yes the whole album is amazing too touched by the crimson king
only a few hours till i see them live dokkum open air 28th of june 2019 netherlands :) finally !!!!!!!
Songs to sing
Song of Turtle
And the Cry of the Bear
Awake
I can sense it
Still I'm afraid
Tower Road lies ahead
Commala-come-ka
Ka has come to me
Grey old fellow
If you finally failed the test
What would it mean?
We're getting near
We're getting near
Maid of sorrow
Your time goes by
Fade away
Fade
"Say thank, ya" for the beams are safe my friend
Long days and pleasant nights for you
Save me
The final chord
Don't let it end like this
No, not like this
Tell me
When things were finally getting out of hand
It's out of hand
Entangled, I am captured
You have put a spell on me
The last in line
The Gunslinger's line
The sacrifice of innocence
This work needs to be done
Now blow the horn
Hail to the gun!
Done is done
Yes, there will be no taking back
Every journey must come to an end
All hail to the Gunslinger
Praise to the Dinh and the King
Beyond our reach, out of control
Save me
To touch the rose it will not bring release
No taking back
Come save me
There are other worlds
But surely none like this
The world has changed
Done is done
Yes, there will be no taking back
The word is the law
Law is Ka
The end of the road lies
Straight ahead it lies
I'm feeling pure
The end of the road lies
The sacrifice of innocence
The hailing of the gun
My way was death and madness
Now let the tower come
Done is done
Yes, there will be no taking back
And every journey must come to an end
All hail to the Gunslinger
Praise to the Dinh and the King
Beyond our reach, out of control
I started to listen to this band just For Hansi Kursh but their music Is amazing! Fucking Love this song!
Hansi and schaffer together is what got me hooked
Anabel Benicio 2 great artists together, don’t get much better
I started because of all 3 giants: Hansi, Stephen King, and Jon.
Can't wait to get my paws on the 3rd album! Already know it's gonna be epic.. how could it not?
My only (probably unfulfilled) wish would be to see D&W live this summer (disabled.. and 2 closest places where they will play are each 10hr drive one way 😢 ). I can only hope Wacken gig will be professionally recorded & uploaded on CZcams (or even sold as a DVD). 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Its getting re-released? Awesome
the remaster sounds fuckin tight! so often do remasters miss the mark but this is amazing
extraordinaria
Favorite song of the album
Fiddler on the green !?
I can see this as a song for a dark tower tv show
That would be damned cool, thow in Terror Train and the Title Track to this album while you're at it too.
Amazing, very good!Thx!
awesome!!!but my favourite is "Crimson King", please make a lyrics or music video for this amazing song!
Razorfist brought me here
This song would be an A+ but the very end stumbles and fizzles.
You should be paid for this. Thank you
♡♡♡
I thought it was Iced Earth when I first listened.
You do know that is partially true, right?
@@krisdaschwab912 Oh really?
I didn't know that.
@@kadir7286 Demons & Wizards is a side project of the rythm guitarist/founder of Iced Earth (Jon Schaffer) and the singer of Blind Guardian (Hansi Kürsch). They have been good friends for many years and wanted to make an album together which resulted in the self titled album in 2000. And in 2005 they brought out Touched By The Crimson King (this song is part of that album).
So if the riffs reminded you of an Iced Earth album, that's not so strange. ;)
😍
"Long days and pleasant nights, sai"
🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
My first thought was, he lied in every word,
that hoary cripple, with the malicious eye
askance to watch the working of his lie
on mine, and mouth scarce able to afford
suprpression of the glee, that pursed and scored
its edge, at one more victim gained thereby.
what else should he be set for, with his staff?
what, save to waylay with his lies, ensnare
all travelers who might find him posted there,
and ask the road? i guessed what skull-like laugh
would break, what crutch 'gin write my epitaph
for pastime in the dusty thoroughfare,
if at his counsel i should turn aside
into that ominous tract which, all agree,
hides the dark tower. yet acquiesingly
i did turn as he pointed: neither pride
nor hope rekindling at the end described,
so much as gladness that some end might be.
for, what with my whole world-wide wandering,
what with my search drawn out through years, my hope
dwindled into a ghost not fit to cope
with that obstreperous joy success would bring,-
i hardly tried now to rebuke the spring
my heart made, finding failure in its scope.
as when a sick man very near to death
seems dead indeed, and feels begin and end
the tears and takes the farewell of each friend,
and hears one bid the other go, draw breath
freelier outside, ("since all is o'er," he saith,
"and the blow fallen no grieving can amend";)
while some discuss if near the other graves
be room enough for this, and when a day
suits best for carrying the corpse away,
with care about the banners, scarves and staves:
and still the man hears all, and only craves
he may not shame such tender love and stay.
thus, i had so long suffered in this quest,
heard failure prophesied so oft, been writ
so many times among "the band"- to wit,
the knights who to the dark tower's search addressed
their steps- that just to fail as they, seemed best,
and all the doubt was now- should i be fit?
so, quiet as despair, i turned from him,
that hateful cripple, out of his highway
into the path he pointed. all the day
had been a dreary one at best, and dim
was settling to its close, yet shot one grim
red leer to see the plain catch its estray.
for mark! no sooner was i fairly found
pledged to the plain, after a pace or two,
than, pausing to throw backward a last view
o'er the safe road, 'twas gone; gray plain all round:
nothing but plain to the horizon's bound.
i might go on; naught else remained to do.
so, on i went. i think i never saw
such starved ignoble nature; nothing throve:
for flowers- as well expect a cedar grove!
but cockle, spurge, according to their law
might propagate their kind, with none to awe,
you'd think; a burr had been a treasure trove.
no! penury, inertness and grimace,
in some strange sort, were the land's portion. "see
or shut your eyes," said nature peevishly,
"it nothing skills: i cannot help my case:
'tis the last judgment's fire must cure this place,
calcine its clods and set my prisoners free."
if there pushed any ragged thistle-stalk
above its mates, the head was chopped; the bents
were jealous else. what made those holes and rents
in the dock's harsh swarth leaves, bruised as to balk
all hope of greenness? 'tis a brute must walk
pashing their life out, with a brute's intents.
as for the grass, it grew as scant as hair
in leprosy; thin dry blades pricked the mud
which underneath looked kneaded up with blood.
one stiff blind horse, his every bone a-stare,
stood stupefied, however he came there:
thrust out past service from the devil's stud!
alive? he might be dead for aught i know,
with that red gaunt and collapsed neck a-strain,
and shut eyes underneath the rusty mane;
seldom went such grotesqueness with such woe;
i never saw a brute i hated so;
he must be wicked to deserve such pain.
i shut my eyes and turned them on my heart.
as a man calls for wine before he fights,
i asked one draught of earlier, happier sights,
ere fitly i could hope to play my part.
think first, fight afterwards- the soldier's art:
one taste of the old time sets all to rights.
not it! i fancied cuthbert's reddening face
beneath its garniture of curly gold,
dear fellow, till i almost felt him fold
an arm in mine to fix me to the place,
that way he used. alas, one night's disgrace!
out went my heart's new fire and left it cold.
giles then, the soul of honor- there he stands
frank as ten years ago when knighted first.
what honest man should dare (he said) he durst.
good - but the scene shifts - faugh! what hangman-hands
pin to his breast a parchment? his own hands
read it. poor traitor, spit upon and curst!
better this present than a past like that;
back to my darkening path again!
no sound, no sight as far as eye could strain.
will the night send a howlet or a bat?
i asked: when something on the dismal flat
came to arrest my thoughts and change their train.
a sudden little river crossed my path
as unexpexted as a serpent comes.
no sluggish tide congenial to the glooms;
this, as it frothed by, might have been a bath
for the fiend's glowing hoof- to see the wrath
of its black eddy bespate with flakes and spumes.
so petty yet so spiteful! all along,
low scrubby alders kneeled down over it;
drenched willows flung themselves headlong in a fit
of mute despair, a suicidal throng:
the river which had done them all wrong,
whate'er that was, rolled by, deterred no whit.
which, while i forded,- good saints, how i feared
to set my foot upon a dead man's cheek,
each step, or feel the spear i thrust to seek
for hollows, tangled in his hair or beard!
- it may have been a water rat i speared,
but, ugh! it sounded like a baby's shriek.
glad was i when i reached the other bank.
now for a better country. vain presage!
who were the strugglers, what war did they wage,
whose savage trample thus could pad the dank
soil to a plash? toads in a poisoned tank,
or wild cats in a red-hot iron cage-
the fight must so have seemed in that fell cirque.
what penned them there, with all the plain to choose?
no footprint leading to that horrid mews,
none out of it. mad brewage set to work
their brains, no doubt, like galley-slaves the turk
pits for his pastime, christians against jews.
and more than that- a furlong on- why, there!
what bad use was that engine for, that wheel,
or brake, not wheel- that harrow fit to reel
men's bodies out like silk? with all the air
of tophet's tool, on earth left unaware,
or brought to sharpen its rusty teeth of steel.
then came a bit of stubbed ground, once a wood,
next a marsh, it would seem, and now mere earth
desperate and done with; (so a fool finds mirth,
makes a thing and then mars it, till his mood
changes and off he goes!) within a rood-
bog, clay and rubble, sand and stark black dearth.
now blotches rankling, colored gay and grim,
now patches where some leanness of the soil's
broke into moss or substance like boils;
then came some palsied oak, a cleft in him
like a disturbed mouth that splits its rim
gaping at death, and dies while it recoils.
and just as far as ever from the end!
naught in the distance but the evening, naught
to point my footstep further! at the thought,
a great black bird, apollyon's bosom-friend,
sailed past, nor beat his wide wing dragon-penned
that brushed my cap- perchance the guide i sought.
for, looking up, aware i somehow grew,
'spite of the dusk, the plain had given place
all round to mountains- with such name to grace
mere ugly heights and heaps now stolen in view.
how thus they had surprised me,- solve it, you!
how to get from them was no clearer case.
yet half i seemed to recognize some trick
of mischief happened to me, god knows when-
in a bad dream perhaps. here ended, then,
progress this way. when, in the very nick
of giving up, one more time, came a click
as when a trap shuts- you're inside the den!
burningly it came on me all at once,
this was the place! those two hills on the right,
crouched like two bulls locked horn in horn in fight;
while to the left, a tall scalped mountain... dunce,
dotard, a-dozing at the very nonce,
after a life spent training for the sight!
what in the midst lay but the tower itself?
the round squat turret, blind as the fool's heart,
built of brown stone, without a counterpart
in the whole world. the tempest's mocking elf
points to the shipman thus the unseen self
he strikes on, only when the timbers start.
not see? because of night perhaps?- why, day
came back again for that! before it left,
the dying sunset kindled through a cleft:
the hills, like giants at a hunting, lay,
chin upon hand, to see the game at bay,-
"now stab and end the creature- to the heft!"
not hear? when noise was everywhere! it tolled
increasing like a bell. names in my ears
of all the lost adventurers my peers,-
how such a one was strong, and such was bold,
and such was fortunate, yet each of old
lost, lost! one moment knelled the woe of years.
there they stood, ranged along the hill-sides, met
to view the last of me, a living frame
for one more picture! in a sheet of flame
i saw them and i knew them all. and yet
dauntless the slug-horn to my lips set,
and blew. "childe roland to the dark tower came."
My favorite part
i shut my eyes and turned them on my heart.
as a man calls for wine before he fights,
i asked one draught of earlier, happier sights,
ere fitly i could hope to play my part.
think first, fight afterwards- the soldier's art:
one taste of the old time sets all to rights.
god fucking speed
Oh fucking gosh, this sounds amazing 🤘🤘🤘
Cool. See you in Wacken. You're headliner.
I knew The Dark Tower wasn't great when it didn't have Demons and Wizards in it
The Dark Tower is a masterpiece.
