People who complain about how alot of Power Metal sound's to much like Mid career Helloween.Obviously don't know what good vocals are,because this is where it all started.Michael kiske,not to be confused with the sorry ass Geoff Tate,has spawned a legion of wanna be immitator's,and not one of them come's close to the legend.But I still enjoy listening to them try.And it doesn't bother me in the slightest to buy group's that immulate him,and the early Helloween's musical style.In my oppinion you can't get better than this group.Although Stratovarius,Sonata Arctica,Rhapsody,Therion,Both Nocturnal Rites,Falconer,and the really impressive new band's Brainstorm,and Black Majesty along with many,many more great power metal band's,still this band in it's prime was,and still is,to me the absolute best in Power Metal.If you don't like this album,you should by stuff that doesn't sound like good traditional Power Metal.Maybe like the NEW Helloween,with their horrible sorry excuse for a singer Andy Deris,and the sorry ass,bad song writting,glammy ass,Queens Ryche.With Geoff Tate,a man that to me sound's just a little bit like Michael Kiske.And to even think that a band that sound's that F!cking bad,could even be compaired to mid career Helloween make's me seriously ill.And if Mid career Helloween was a copy,then they totally in every possable way,shape and form exceeded their sorry ass mentors.So in short,if you want good Power Metal that was,and still is,ground breaking,then get this,and all the other Mid Career Helloween album's.
