NEW ALBUM “STRAIGHT OUT OF HELL” coming January 18th from the Pumpkin Kings. What do you expect musically? Did they fall in a heavy-and-loud pattern with 7 Sinners? Or will they go back to more mature and balanced sound like "Rabbit Don't Come Easy"? If anyone got a preview, sneak peek, or teaser, I would be glad to hear that! |

LOL I thought the same thing, based in the name of the album. Something along the lines of Dark Ride would be cool indeed. It's probably my favorite Deris album. |

It is my favorite Deris era Helloween. I doubt they can do another one like that, though. My bet is it's going to be another approximation of their past grandeur. |

I couldn't agree more about The Dark Ride! |

Not holding out high hopes for this for the simple reason that I dislike Andi Deris. I don't like his vocal tone, vocal lines, or lyrics. If they had a different singer then maybe I would be more inclined to listen. The music is not great but its not awful. The singer, however, is. |

I sympathize with your view. It took me years to like Deris. |

I like Deris and LOVE Deris era Helloween. It's just awesome power metal. Whatever they do, I mean if they choose The Dark Ride or Rabbits or 7 Sinners style it will be cool. ![]() |

As long as its the same quality as their last 4-5 albums, then I'm happy |

I'm always surprised to hear people talk about how they like recent Helloween. I'll admit I don't have many of their recent albums, in fact I only have 7 Sinners which I picked up on a blind buy a couple of years back and I thought it was a pretty huge, steaming pile of shit. I still do. It's most certainly a deterrant against picking up others. This is coming from a person who only owns Walls of Jericho and the two Seven Keys albums, so I dunno. Maybe everything in between softened the blow for you guys, but wow - it amazes me people consider that good music. |

You may dislike 7 Sinners, while others like myself and the others in this thread like it very much, plus the previous album going back 4-5 to boot. Everyone is entitled to their opinion |

You guys heard about the Burning Sun EP? (http://youtu.be/cIck5Ff3aUc) It's actually pretty good and I got a good feeling about the upcoming album. About 7 Sinners (and about every other album) I think there are great songs on it! Mr. Madman, Smile of The Sun, Sage Fool Sinner, I'm Free... And you know what? I'm not ashamed to say I fucking loved Unarmed. Well, as long as they continue rocking, i'll continue to rock along ;) |

Gambling was the album of the year at MR, so I guess people like new Helloween around here. |

7 Sinner's didnt leave much of an impression on me, so I hope they get away from that. The Dark Ride 2.0 would be a nice suprise. |

Nabataea is a great song and a great comeback for Helloween! But... tell me... what the hell is going on with Sacha Gerstner in the video? We never see him close-up, and he has a thick beard. |

The Deris era blows away the Kiske/Hansen era. And The Dark Ride is great but vastly overrated. That said, the new album sounds great. Amazon has samples. "Burning Sun," however, is kind of a mess. From the samples, it sounds like the worst song on the album. It's just awkward to my ears. |

It probably is. |

I expect 14 layers of auto-tuned vocals. |

I love how accusing "autotune" is the new insult to bands. |
