"Beyond the Red Mirror is the best album Blind Guardian has released since A Night at the Opera, and a triumphant middle finger to Lady Time, who has seemingly no control over the power metal giants. Though it's not likely to change the minds of those unimpressed with the band's previous work, BG's latest offering will firmly plant itself in any power metal fan's rotation for months, even years, to come".

"In between is a concept-themed (naturally) update on the protagonist from 1995's Imaginations from the Other Side. It's a pretty boilerplate story even by Blind Guardian - after being tempted by a magic door on Imaginations he now takes the plunge beyond a portal encased in the titular red mirror - but this is a band that earns their supper by the strength of their songwriting and musicianship, and Beyond the Red Mirror demonstrates utter mastery of both proficiencies in spades".
