The thing about Gamma Ray is that their mastermind, the guitarist/vocalist Kai Hansen had made a new project after leaving Helloween in 1989

Kai Hansen is now back to Helloween again and with Mike Kiske too. So there's the original line up with 3 lead vocalists now. Kiske, Deris and Hansen.

This is such a powerful anthem and I love the way the song is like split into two halves. The ending chorus and choir like singing is very powerful. Also the Ralf's voice is very good along with those guitars during the middle just makes the song. Thanks for sharing have a lovely day.

The vocalist here and on the first three albums is Ralf Scheepers, who is now the singer for Primal Fear. This one is like a movie musical score wrapped up into one 6 minute song. Some Gamma ray suggestions: Blood Religion, Insurrection, Beyond the Black Hole, Rise, The Winged Horse

This song and whole album I used to listen to every day 31 years ago when I was still in school. Yet when I heard my favourite power metal ballad from that year, I feel as if it was yesterday. Kay Hansen (Ex-Helloween) founded this band with guys who were all familiar with Helloween. So their style was similar in some ways as for speed and melodies. Yet they created their own sound that I was able to recognize instantly. From the same album check out Heading for tomorrow (14:50min long) also "Money", "Free Time" and "Hold Your Ground". This album for me it's still my favourite from Gamma Ray but the others you also need to check out. I have 8 Studio Albums and 3 live double albums and Live DVD's of them. Helloween are a bit more known in the American metal community since they have done many tours before Gamma Ray was established. I like that you do a reaction from their next album: "Sigh No More" and listen to the song "One With The World". Use the link below for the official video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iKu8oKhraNuCkKc

"power metal vibe" Um... Kai Hansen (lead guitarist) is considered one of the fathers of Power Metal... My three favorite bands are Helloween, Gamma Ray, and Primal Fear (vocalist on this song left GR to audition for Judas Priest and ended up founding Primal Fear.) This album and Sigh No More were great examples of Ralf's voice, but he gets better. You should check out a newer Primal Fear song like The End is Near to see how Ralf has matured, though I'd personally recommend anything off Jaws of Death or Nuclear Fire. Plus, Gamma Ray morphed after Ralf left, so check out Beyond the Black Hole (or the title track) from Somewhere out in Space or Armageddon from Power Plant, or even Dethrone Tyranny off No World Order
@NorthgateLP4 жыл бұрын
Nuclear Fire is an amazing album by Primal Fear! I think both Ralf and Gamma Ray were better off without each other.
@derekd19973 жыл бұрын
Great video. Gamma Ray is one of my favourite bands. The harmonies and melodies and fast pace and dramatic like Queen. What's not to love. Wish modern music followed this path, now its fading away. I did love the new Helloween album though, especially the song Fear of the Fallen. Kai Hansen is back in the band. Sadly I think that means Gamma Ray is on hiatus.
@frodemathiassen67042 жыл бұрын
Helloween was Heavy Metal but they influensed the so called Power Metal (Heavy Metal in eights, lots of tempo changes and often some kind of fantasy storytelling). Kai Hansen is my favorite then it comes to changes in melody and tempo it's always so smothe and natural. Kai started Gamma Ray after he and Kiske left Helloween. Ralf Scheepers in this albums reminds me a lot of Michael Kiskes singing.
@EessaTube4 жыл бұрын
For a bit of fun, check out Gamma Ray's cover of the Pet Shop Boys' 'It's A Sin'. The Silence isn't the best example of what Gamma Ray are like. Try tracks like 'Anywhere in the Universe' and 'Short as Hell'.

Early Gamma Ray is rough... I really can't get into any of the stuff sung by Ralf. The rerecorded versions of Last Before the Storm and One With the World with Kai singing are awesome, but other than that I don't like anything prior to Land of the Free. After that though, soooo much good stuff. Send Me a Sign is the song that got me hooked on power metal. Rebellion in Dreamland is a must hear as well.
