Avantasia - 'The Wicked Rule the Night' (Live at Wacken Open Air 2022)
The crack of thunder boding evil in the night
Raging forks impale the dark skies
That carry and rock what they're afraid to speak of
Out to choke the light
A godless name the storm bell cries
The pestering, the blight
Someone's got to bear the blame, you name the name
The wicked rule the night
Knocking up all disarray
And there is hell to pay
Fire, and yet we'll come for you again
Try to close your eyes, we'll show up anyway
Fire, you know we'll return once again
You can turn the page, the image will remain
We're in your dreams
They ride the storm that they've brewed up in secrecy
Speak in tongues, they curse and pray
Spat maledictions, left them high in ecstasy
You don't get a word they say
The poison's got to flow
You let it off, rechannelize, depressurize
The wicked seed is sown
To spawn disarray
And there is hell to pay
Fire, and yet we'll come for you again
Try to close your eyes, we'll show up anyway
Fire, you know we'll return once again
You can turn the page, the image will remain
We're in your dreams
And in the boscage staring eyes
Something hiding from the light
The wicked rule the night
Fire, by night we'll come for you again
Try to close your eyes, we'll haunt you anyway
Fire, be sure we'll return once again
You can burn the page, the image will remain
We're in your dreams

Στο μουσικό φεστιβάλ του Waken έχουν εμφανιστεί αρκετές φορές οι Avantasia. Στεκόμαστε στην περσινή εμφάνισή τους και τους βλέπουμε - ακούμε να αποδίδουν "ζωντανά" το τραγούδι "The Wicked Rule the Night" (από τον πλέο πρόσφατο δίσκο τους "A Paranormal Evening with the Moonflower Society" που κυκλοφόιρησε τον περασμένο Οκτώβριο) παρέα με τον Ralf Scheepers (Primal Fear, ex-Gamma Ray κλπ).
Σχηματίσθηκαν ως side project για την κυκλοφορία μίας metal όπερας ("The Metal Opera", "The Metal Opera pt.II"), αλλά στην πορεία μετεξελίχθηκαν σε "κανονικό" σχήμα, το οποίο συνεχίζει ακάθεκτο μέχρι τις ημέρες μας έχοντας κυκλοφορήσει εννέα "ολοκληρωμένους" δίσκους, τέσσερα EPs, εννέα singles, μία συλλογή, ένα split (μαζί με Dimmu Borgir και Sonata Arctica), τρία boxed set και ένα live album- video...
Οι Avantasia δημιουργήθηκαν το μακρινό 2.000 από τον Tobias Sammet των Edguy.
