I rate this one right up there with keys part. 2 and Helloween's best. After Walls of Jericho, which had some great songs but a not so great sound quality on it, Helloween came back hard putting the stamp on power metal back then when this came out. At the time the only bands close to power metal I remember even seeing in the record stores that resembled power metal at all were, Iron Maiden and Yngwie Malmsteen. This was a welcomed release at a time when you were ready to puke if you saw Motley Crue on MTV one more time, singing home sweet home! The sound is crisp and clear, power vocals, catchy tunes, like Future World, and the epic Halloween, especially made a name for Helloween at the time. This is an essential release for any power-metal fan to own. Do not be without it. ***** STAR PUMPKINHEAD RATING FROM SCRAGGY'S TOMB! Cheers.
