BLIND GUARDIAN Frontman HANSI KÜRSCH On Arranging Vocals - "I Try To Imagine What An Artist Like FREDDIE MERCURY Would Do"; Video

Chaoszine spoke with German vocalist Hansi Kürsch  about his journey as a metal frontman, how he got into metal and went from guitarist to bassist/vocalist to finally became a pure frontman with his main band, Blind Guardian.

He discusses the evolution of the vocal arrangements throughout Blind Guardian’s discography, his influences as a vocalist and the top three albums he is most proud of. Hansi gives some advice for young singers and how to stay vocally in good shape on the road. Also, he talks about Blind Guardian’s plans for next year, including tour dates in Europe and South America supporting their newest album, The God Machine, released last September via Nuclear Blast Records.

After their triumphant return to stage with their Somewhere Far Beyond Tour this year, the story of Blind Guardian's latest masterpiece, The God Machine, goes on. The band recently announced a string of tour dates for 2023, so they can present these new songs to their hungry audience.
