Fantasy Metal! Our dorkiest, niche-iest episode yet. Today Angie (as heard on Episode 04) rejoins me to talk about a genre so deliciously ridiculous it has to be heard to be believed.
We dissect Rhapsody's "Magic of the Wizard's Dream," featuring ACTUAL WIZARD Christopher Lee (RIP), Blind Guardian in drag covering "Mr Sandman", and Demons & Wizards' "Terror Train," a story told from the point of view of an evil, sentient train. We also cover a song from Rick Wakeman's son about Alice In Wonderland that's too dinky even for us.
Also mentioned in this episode: Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, Rainbow, Trans-Siberian Orchestra, The Sword, and Mastodon.
