1. Wizard is a German Power Metal band, formed in 1989 by the drummer Sören van Heek. The band was often called "Germany's answer to Manowar". On some albums the lyrics are about battles, metal, war and steel. The exception were the albums Odin, which is a concept album about Norse mythology, Goochan which is a fantasy story about a witch (written by Volker Leson and author William B. Nuke), Thor which is also about north mythology and ... of wariwulfs and bluotvarwes which is about vampires and werewolfs (written by Wizard and Andre Wiesler, German author).
Wizard played at Wacken Open Air 2002, Bang Your Head!!! 2002, Keep It True 2004, Dokk'em Open Air 2006, Magic Circle Festival 2009 and is in the 2012 line-up of Hammerfest IV. In 2003 longtime guitarist Michael Maass quit the band because of health problems. In 2006 the band left the label Limb Music after four albums and joined the somewhat bigger label Massacre Records with a new album in mind to be released in January 27, 2007, titled Goochan. On may 18th, 2007, Michael Maass returned to the band after a three-year break. The band's 2009 album Thor received a positive review from The Pit reviewer Frank Heise, who praised "The Visitor" as the best track on it.
The band's 2011 album ...Of Wariwulfs and Bluotvarwes received a positive review from SLUG Magazine reviewer Dylan Chadwick noting that "well trodden, and admittedly formulaic, it's a resoundingly competent platter of steel-willed, fist pounding heavy metal that'll satisfy the most voracious headbanger's hunger."
Dragons Death
Wizard Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Through spiritual darts
A time of untouched nature
No sign of hate in earthly hearts
Dragon wings in the sunlight
Silence in my dreams in my life
I sing I swear decorates to you
[Bridge:]
But Dragons death comes fast
[Ref:]
Why – why do you have to die?
The spirit in the sky
Why – do you have to die?
I here your whisper in my dreams
But why you have to die
Dark clouds in the sky
The world have lost a
Magic sign from the gods
The spirit of fantasy in my eyes
If I live or not I can't say
A dark shadow is coming over me
Comes over the whole world
The lyrics to the Wizard's song Dragons Death evoke a sense of loss and sorrow over the passing of a mighty dragon. The song begins by describing a time of purity and harmony in the world, where there was no pain and no hate in people's hearts. This idyllic world is embodied by the breathtaking sight of dragon wings in the sunlight, a symbol of the powerful and mystical forces of nature that surrounded them. The singer swears loyalty to this dragon and sings its praises, feeling its presence as a divine sign from the gods.
However, the mood turns abruptly with the bridge section of the song, where the singer acknowledges that Dragons death comes fast. The chorus laments the passing of the dragon, questioning why it had to die and mourning the loss of this magical creature. Even in dreams, the singer can hear the dragon's whisper, a haunting reminder of what has been lost. The death of the dragon is perceived as a dark cloud over the world, and the spirit of fantasy that once lived in the singer's eyes is slowly fading away.
In essence, Dragons Death is a tribute to the beauty and majesty of dragons, and a lament for their extinction. The song captures the sense of wonder and awe that dragons inspire in us, while simultaneously acknowledging the fragility of life and the inevitability of death.

Somebody should do a video of this song featuring gameplay scenes from Hero's Quest (or Quest for Glory if you got to the game after the name change). I'm immediately reminded of it by this music.
