I love this CD - I personally feel that it is the ultimate evolution of the "classic" Helloween sound, both heavy & melodic. Number One, The Chance, Mankind, Your Turn, & Kids of the Century are all amazing songs. Mankind may even be my favorite Helloween song of all time. Heavy Metal Hampsters is probably the only weak point, and the reason is self-evident. I find that Helloween album reviews are often misleading, because "Pink Bubbles" & "Chamellion" seem to be almost universally loathed by the headbanger contingent, but they are by far the most sophisticated and creative efforts that the band has ever had. If you are only interested in thrash, you won't like this CD. If you love music, this CD will make your regular rotation.
