		The beatles?!, C'mon, this is Helloween not U2.
		"2000: Helloween version 2000 totally rock, lineup had some changes since the "keepers" era, but the dark ride has every element of the best Helloween along with a modern and aggresive touch.
		Maybe two of the best songs Helloween ever made, but the rest of the album just starts falling apart..

		In the second "Experimental" period, Helloween had a bunch of trouble with their record company, and was apparently wracked by intra-band turmoil.
		This album isn't quite as solid as Part I, but it's a lot longer, so there's at least 39 minutes of Part I quality music to be found on it.
		Helloween was apparently unsatisfied by the direction they'd taken over their last two albums, and decided to return to a style that resembled the Keepers albums.

		The debut album of Masterplan was certainly the most expected album of the new year beginning.
		Helloween was not a great live band for me, we had fun but we never had that image, when people say we're a really fucking good live band.
		But the second album of Masterplan should have a lot of attention and should be better than this one, that's a hard work and I shouldn't waste my energy by doing good solo albums.

	MetalReview.com - Metal Review of Helloween - Keeper of the Seven Keys: The Legacy (2 Discs)
		Helloween compensate for their lack of new ideas by stacking old ones on top of each other, hoping that by some divine alchemy they can create evocative music.
		Helloween, when they were relevant, could deliver painfully melodic riffs and solos in such a furious manner that it more than made up for how fruity they were.
		Helloween's new album is one of the best power metal releases of the year and their second best Deris album (after Dark Ride).

		The term (additional info and facts about speed metal) speed metal has also been applied to this style, although that term has not found general consensus in its usage and has been applied to multiple styles.
		The Helloween album (additional info and facts about Keeper of the Seven Keys, Part 1) Keeper of the Seven Keys, Part 1 (1987) is generally regarded as a milestone of this genre.
		Power metal, as the term is used today, places primary importance on an " (A long narrative poem telling of a hero's deeds) epic" sound, usually at high speeds and with catchy melodies.

		He got his start on the prior album, “Time of the Oath”, and I think all he knows how to write is a song where all the instruments (and the singer too!) bang away like the drums.
		This sound is supported by the fact that the way the guitars are tuned on this album lend themselves to that style, which is unusual for a power metal band.
		I think this album is their darkest, even more so than “The Dark Ride”, which is unusual, and it’s also one of their heaviest albums.

		Soon after, Noise released three Helloween albums: a mini-LP simply entitled Helloween, a full-length LP called Walls of Jericho, and the Judas EP.
		The line-up for all these album were Kai on vocals and guitar, Weiki on guitar, Markus on bass, and Ingo on drums.
		Noise filed suit that Helloween had broken their contract and the band was disallowed to release their material anywhere where Noise was able to, outside the UK.

		In the same year, the double album and the video "High Live" came out, both recorded on the Spanish and Italian part of the "The Time Of The Oath" tour.This served to prove how competent Deris is on stage.
		On this solo album Andi was able to leave Helloween’s heavy sound a bit aside and experiment with new genres.
		In the album "Come In From The Rain", besides Andi (vocals and guitar), the line up was: Peter Idera (guitar), his great friend, Ralph Maison (drums and backing vocals) and Gisbert Royder (bass).

	RevelationZ Magazine - Album Review - Helloween - The Dark Ride
		This is the last Helloween album with the line up that after many years seemed almost unbreakable.
		This is definitely a hard and atmospheric album that still has the classical catchy Helloween leads and choruses aplenty.
		The swift guitar solo spot is one of the albums best and the catchy chorus works as a nice contrast to an otherwise very aggressive and heavy vibe.

	Transcending the Mundane: Review of 'Keeper of the Seven Keys, Part I' by Helloween
		Helloween's 1987 album Keeper of the Seven Keys Part 1 is a heavy metal classic.
		Unfortunately, after this successful run, Helloween was involved in a lawsuit with its former record company and the band lost most of the momentum it had built over the late 80's.
		Helloween is an interesting band to say the least.

		The albums will apparently be remastered and will contain bonus tracks, including b-sides and other rarities, the details of which have yet to be revealed.
		Helloween's new double album "Keeper Of The Seven Keys - The Legacy" is set for a European release on October 31st, 2005.
		Helloween have announced the rescheduled European dates that were missed last week in order to allow singer Andi Deris additional time to recover from a chest and throat infection.

		On the back of the album it says "For the third time running...no lawyers, managers or cover songs were used in the making of this CD." That's cool and all, but next time try to make a good album then that'll actually look good on the back.
		So your decision to purchase this album can be based on two things: Whether or not you like HammerFall or classic metal in general, or whether or not you like it when a band sticks to their same formula.
		This has got to be the most anticipated album in years for metalheads who are ecstatic to see one of metal's most legendary bands with their classic lineup (plus one).

	Infernal Dominion - Music Reviews
		With the sharp change in styles, especially the use of the vocals as an instrument, it is difficult to decipher superiority between the prior-said periods.
		With this album he has managed to keep the band’s sound fresh without totally changing it, restore faith (so to speak) in his fans, and leave us pondering what religion is really all about.
		Intelligently, the band knew a whole album of this would be tiring and varied the pace in the latter half.

		Helloween guitarist/de facto leader Michael Weikath didn't like the direction the band was going with Ride, and when he announced his intentions to take Helloween "back to basics," Grapow and Kusch immediately tendered their resignations.
		The genre has just been stagnant for several years now, and for Helloween to go back to their old sound just seemed, to me, to be a bad idea.
		But the difference between The Dark Ride and the other albums was enough that they left a lot of their fans out in the cold, although they attracted a different kind of fan.

	Transcending the Mundane: Review of 'Rabbit Don't Come Easy' by Helloween
		These three albums would prove to be the barometer to which all others would be judged.
		Helloween returned to their power metal roots with this disc and by the time Time of the Oath came out in 1996, Helloween was firmly back on track.
		It is the best album of 2003, and that is in great competition with both Kamelot and Sonata Arctica.

	THE METAL OBSERVER - Review - HELLOWEEN - Master Of The Rings
		Anyway, this is the first album with powerhouse drummer Uli Kusch and Andi Deris (ex PINK CREAM 69 singer); Deris is not the one at fault here, he does a good job with his light and cheerful voice.
		The album’s first half is pretty good with songs like “Sole Survivor”, “Where The Rain Grows” and “Why” demonstrating the band’s run of the mill tradition of Happy Melodic Power Metal with catchy choruses.
		This is not a hungry HELLOWEEN but listen to “The Time Of The Oath”, “Better Than Raw” or “The Dark Ride” and you’ll see why they didn’t continue on this course.

	Metallian.com - Gamma Ray
		Kai Hansen leaves Helloween after the release of the successful Keeper Of The Seven Keys II album and together with Ralf Scheepers forms Gamma Ray in 1989.
		The album is a pleaser and even approaches Walls Of Jericho (my favourite Helloween album) speeds and vocal pitches.
		The album is a concept and as is usual for Gamma Ray quite up-beat and fluently fast.

		On the first album, everyone feels the classical influences, which are the main part of my playing.
		I always write something for Helloween and something for me. Since what I composed was less aggressive, it was obvious that it was material for my solo album.
		It was not an solo album of Michael Kiske but indeed an solo album of all guys of Helloween.

		Chameleon was probably the most commercially unsuccessful album of Helloween.
		Pink Bubbles's bad sides are that it wasn't really finished album, most of material was of demo quality when it was released and none liked Chris Tsangarides production work...
		For me the worst Helloween record is Better than Raw I guess, or maybe Master of the Rings...

		Among the "A List" of kozmigroov albums (http://www.jahsonic.com/Kozmigroov.html) are artists such as Alice Coltrane, Miles Davis, Pharoah Sanders, Herbie Hancock, Eddie Henderson and Sun Ra.
		Poland's Ossian created a heavy psychedelic acoustic trance music with African and European influences and later incorporated jazz and continued for decades changing their name to Osjan and being a prototype for a similar modern group Atman and its offshoot the Magic Carpathians.
		Helloween is largely considered the founder of power metal, a melodic/accessible form of heavy metal that owes its influences to some of the NWOBHM groups.

		A number of factors could have spiralled the end of the pumpkin kings career…their last album Dark Ride ’99 was a radical change in style similar to Chameleon of ’93 where this time they overproduced and took a darker edge to their sound and lyrics.
		I think this is a good album that is classic Helloween with an almost new coating of confidence that allows them to mix up their styles more than ever before….and get away with it.
		When this was followed by another song which did nothing for me, I knew my hopes for the greatest Helloween album ever had been premature.

	THE METAL OBSERVER - Review - HELLOWEEN - Better Than Raw
		RHAPSODY I can deal with since classical music is a part of their musical concept but when it comes to other bands, especially HELLOWEEN, I just wait for it to end or skip it if it doesn’t catch me after hearing it the first time.
		However doubtful the quality and capabilities of HELLOWEEN’s skills in writing slow stuff may be, ”Hey Lord” and ”A Handful Of Pain” are two noteworthy mid-pacers which proves they can if they put enough inspiration into it.
		After his departure every HELLOWEEN album has had some pretty lame songs; ”I Can” could have been used as the theme to a modern ”Rocky” movie and nothing more, ”Don’t Spit On My Mind” fails to catch my attention because of the weird and atypical atmosphere it has (why the silly keyboards sounds?).

		As an early fan from the bands glory days in the mid eighties, I was pleasantly surprised to see them return in such fine form this year.
		And happy Helloween fans is what the band was aiming for on this album.
		As you have probably already noticed, four separate songwriters contributed to the making of this album and despite this fact, there is a stunning sense of flow and coherency to it all.

		Helloween's new guitarist is former Freedom Call guitarist Sascha Gerstner.
		The next two tracks are the excellent "Open Your Life" and the killer "The Tune." Next is the standard Helloween mid-tempo track "Never Be A Star." The Speed Metal of "Liar" follows with tons of double bass.
		I like the title of the album and it applies to them, even if it is grammatically incorrect.
