Ok, but Blind Guardian slaps though.

Shame about Hansi doing that collab with Jon "Jonuary 6th" "Anti-Semitic Banking Conspiracy 'Theorist'" Schaffer, but otherwise yeah they do.

Damn, I was hoping I wouldn't come back to a comment like this. I suppose it's a given in the metal community, lot of cool people, but a lot of shitheads too.

It was a two-album side project that combined members of Blind Guardian and Iced Earth (called "Demons and Wizards"), and in Hansi's defense, it wasn't widely known that Schaffer was a megaCHUD at the time. I don't know of any other Hansi-adjacent controversy beyond that, but I haven't exactly gone looking either.
