this is good. It is much heavier than old helloween, as most reviewers pointed out, and i think it is a change for the better. Some songs do chug away at the power chords too much (song 4 (i think) being the prime example of this) The best part IS the guitar riffs at 2:25 of track 10, it is great! We want more of this! though it doesn't compare to yngwie, as another reviewer said, it is very clean and interesting, one of the more catchy riffs i've heard helloween, or any other band for that matter do. Once i heard it i immediately picked up my guitar and didn't listen to another song until i figured it out. good stuff. It is not 5 star material though because there is some filler. Some songs just seem to be there, not really grabbing your attention as you wait for the next brilliant moment.
