│║ Description : ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Every time I see or hear Helloween, I always ║ │
│║ come over with a massive feeling of regret. For ║ │
│║ a band who more or less founded the subgenre of ║ │
│║ power metal, and released two of the most ║ │
│║ innovative and iconic metal albums in history, ║ │
│║ Keeper Of The Seven Keys 1 & 2, they never truly ║ │
│║ reached the heights of success that those ║ │
│║ records promised. Of course, numerous changes in ║ │
│║ rank over the years did not help, especially ║ │
│║ that of original member Kai Hansen. Then the ║ │
│║ commercial nosedive albums Pink Bubbles Go Ape ║ │
│║ and Chameleon led to the departure of vocalist ║ │
│║ Michael Kiske, leaving the Helloween camp in ║ │
│║ complete disarray. Thankfully, since 2005 ║ │
│║ stability returned to the band, and led by ║ │
│║ vocalist Andi Deris they are about to release ║ │
│║ their fifth studio album, My God-Given Right ║ │
│║ with the current line up. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ There is a lot of power metal bands out there ║ │
│║ who are just going through the motions with not ║ │
│║ an awful lot happening. ThatÆs far from the case ║ │
│║ with the opening tracks on this album. Heroes ║ │
│║ and BattlesÆ Won just encapsulates everything ║ │
│║ that sets this band apart from the pretenders. ║ │
│║ Gritty riffs, melodic power are all in abundance ║ │
│║ here and meticulously executed. The title track ║ │
│║ carries the tribal battle theme to yet more epic ║ │
│║ results, itÆs fierce and bloody vibe is ║ │
│║ ceaseless. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Andi Deris performance is five star; heÆs a man ║ │
│║ that seems to get better with every album. Be ║ │
│║ that as it may though, thereÆs still a hell of a ║ │
│║ lot of die hard Helloween fans who still havenÆt ║ │
│║ got over Kiske walking, and will still grimace ║ │
│║ at the very mention of todayÆs line up. But the ║ │
│║ vast majority are still on board with whatever ║ │
│║ the band are creating. The retro 80Æs sounding ║ │
│║ Stay Crazy is pretty predictable, but oozes a ║ │
│║ cheesy likeability; while the turbo charged Lost ║ │
│║ In America and Russian Roule wonÆt take you by ║ │
│║ surprise, but they are still key bona fide ║ │
│║ quality metal tracks. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ The Swing Of A Fallen World takes the album into ║ │
│║ a shredders paradise with thunderous drama and ║ │
│║ searing changes of pace that will take your ║ │
│║ breath away. If youÆre a Helloween sceptic and ║ │
│║ think the song remains the same, the gem that is ║ │
│║ Like Everybody Else should kick that theory ║ │
│║ clear out of your head. A vocally restrained ║ │
│║ Deris once again delivers with natural ease. As ║ │
│║ metal ballads go, its class and undeniable ║ │
│║ epicenes is a perpetual joy to behold. An ║ │
│║ incessant Creatures In Heaven is a complete orgy ║ │
│║ of melodic power thatÆs sets up a barbaric If ║ │
│║ God Loves Rock n Roll perfectly. If it wasnÆt ║ │
│║ for the instantly addictive chorus, Living On ║ │
│║ The Edge would just be an album also ran, but ║ │
│║ this is only a mere weak point on a very strong ║ │
│║ album thus far. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ A furious Gerstner and Weikath assault their ║ │
│║ respective axes with an arrogant fury on Claws, ║ │
│║ but having said that, compared to other bands of ║ │
│║ a similar genre they donÆt overplay their ║ │
│║ undoubted talents to the extreme. And this is ║ │
│║ the overriding beauty of the album, the balance ║ │
│║ of each members magic is equally shared to form ║ │
│║ a shrewdly constructed metal album. And, IÆve ║ │
│║ said it before and IÆll say it again, I believe ║ │
│║ metal and hard rock is once again on the verge ║ │
│║ of another purple patch, and Helloween, based on ║ │
│║ this beauty, will be on the frontline. ║ │
