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."
The Call of Evil
Wizard Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Stormes rose and the ground shock.
Deamons came and called those who waited for them for a long time.
And all who where bad and evil followed them in order to destroy the mankind.
Their army devastated the old world in one day and one night 'cause there were all named by the devil.
The lyrics of Wizard's song "The Call of Evil" describe a powerful and sinister storyline. At first, we hear about a group of bloodstone priests who had passed away, but were brought back to life by some form of magic. They then proceed to open seven gates of hell, unleashing a horde of demons upon the world. These demons call out to those who have been waiting for them, beckoning them to join their forces and destroy humanity. The army of evil claims victory over the world in a single day and night, leaving destruction in their wake.
The themes in this song are dark and foreboding, highlighting the dangers of indulging in evil desires and pursuits. The direct connection between the bloodstone priests and the opening of the gates of hell conjures up images of an ancient ritual. The demons themselves are depicted as supernatural beings that call to the wicked to join them in their destruction, giving a sense of fear and dread to the atmosphere.
The song's highly descriptive imagery showcases the storytelling abilities of Wizard, and the ominous tone of the song is carried by the singer's powerful and dramatic vocals. "The Call of Evil" is a haunting track that tells the story of the devastating consequences of pursuing evil desires.

Everytime Osborn appears, it doesn't matter if he appears in marvel movies or anime, he is villian

I thought it was just another Shonen anime, but than it turned out that this Anime combined three of my favorite things: dark fantasy, metal and Dungeons and Dragons.
Even as a female, it's definitely worth watching it.
