I can't stop listening to Keepers 1 and 2

who else likes helloween?




.....even after kiske/kai left, if you like that sort of thing.

You know what... and this shocks and horrifies me... I don't think I've heard a single Helloween track.

One of those bands I never bothered to get into. Got their new DVD the other week and its actually pretty good so I'll probibly look out for some of their albums now.

I like Early and mid period helloween (up to keeper pt2) and tis quite true that they earned and deserved the nickname "the iron maiden of thrash". They did start to go off the boil seriously afetr the keeper albums and to be honest i haven't heard anything of the last 6 studio albums!!

Did you know that some of the early thrashy stuff actually dates back to the late 70s/ very early 80s and tracks like Murderer, metal invaders, gorgar and victims of fate date from this period some BEFORE metallica formed!!!! The first thrash band????

UM........................................!!

I used to like them a bit, but got bored of them. Just A Little Sign is a great song though, cheesy as fuck!

Something's growing in my pants as she looks into my eyes...

WE ALL LIVE.. IN FUTURE WORLD!!!!!!

Speed Metal... oh yeah. Defo on the mini LP and 'Walls Of Jericho' LP. Enjoyed the 'Keepers...' LPs, but the early stuff is the best. Political lyrics as well... not your run of the mill thrash band.

Aye,although they are now credited as one of the original exponents of "power metal" they were originally coined a speed metal band,they were certainly one of the fastest around at the time.Without going into my vinyl vault to check I'm certain they were on one of the original "Speed Kills " albums as well.
Remember "Heavy Metal(is the law)!

I like Helloween, all the way through pretty much. Still think the pumpkins they stick on everything is a bit rubbishy tho...

I like their stuff up to "Keepers II". They used to be a good live band, but I haven't seen them for a long time so I have no idea what they're like now.
You know their drummer from that period (up to "Chameleon") committed suicide ? Sad end.

I love the Kai Hansen era Helloween, the last Helloween album i brought was "Pink Bubbles Go Ape" and that was GARBAGE

Has anyone checked out Michael Kiskes' Myspace site?
