Yesssssss. Thanks for the react boys!!! Glad i can share this with you

[@Hollywood6IX]

Thank you so much for an incredible song and all your love and support Joel.

[@mikenastasi8927]

@@Hollywood6IX The singer was Michael Kiske. Helloween is from Germany. They're considered power metal. I'm surprised they didn't remind you of Iron Maiden. Power metal often incorporates elements of prog. Love this band. I have all 16 of their studio albums, their covers album, an acoustic/symphonic compilation album performed with a 70 piece Prague Symphony Orchestra, and a 3 cd live album.

My guy! This was such a dank pick!🤘🤘🤘👏👏👏 hit this out of the park!; out the game!

[@kaansoler1431]

Glad you did this dong. The most epic song in metal history!!! Michael Kiske doesn't get the recognition but he is one of the top metal vocalists up there with Rob Halford, Dio, Geoff Tate. Helloween is considered a progressive metal band and they pretty much invented the genre. True icons!!!

[@p1g5m0k3]

They pretty much invented the Power Metal genre. Prog rock was around before with bands like Yes, Rush, and Iron Maiden with longer songs and more complex compositions. One could argue that prog rock has roots in classical music.

[@joelabel7843]

They are a german power/speed metal band from the 80's they still make music today. If had to suggest another epic from them although not as long it would be eagle fly free off the same album. You guys rock. Thanks again!

[@TheAngryMoth104]

I'm seeing them in a couple weeks

[@josiasjanuario6052]

[@Lonestar1430]

"I Want Out" is very good too, the best three song of the LP, imo.

[@jonaslindberg5482]

The singer, Michael Kiske was 20 years old when this song was released. This is one of my all time favorite song and I love playing drums to it 🤟😎🤟

[@Wizzard033]

I love this album too. It came out when I was in high school my best friend brought this over and I've been a big fan ever since

[@stevepower9801]

Dudes you have made me so happy doing this! So much nostalgia for this song. I used to listen to Helloween's "Keeper of the Seven Keys" ,Both Parts One and Two albums on vinyl over and over when I was 15 and 16 back in 1988 and 1989. Still a hugely underrated band when it comes to worldwide metal, though they were pretty big in Europe back in the day. You guys have to do "We Got The Right" next. If that song doesn't make you feel like you want to smile and be ready to take on all the shit that the world throws at you then nothing will! German power metal at it's finest. Bear in mind singer Michael Kiske was only around 19 when they recorded this back in 87/88. He had one hell of a trained powerhouse of a vocal range for someone so young at the time. I still have a soft spot for Helloween after so many years. Thanks for doing this one guys. Peace!

[@crazyking1896]

God I love this band and song, I'm so glad you guys did this one. What a freaking classic man, Helloween are considered the fathers of power metal. Other songs you should check out from this band are Future World, March of Time, I'm Alive, Sole Survivor, and Eagle Fly Free.

[@Wizzard033]

YEEES Future World!

[@TheBlackQueen]

I'd consider Iron Maiden more the fathers of Power Metal, especially considering that many Power Metal bands sound like or attempt to sound like the more adventurous empowering Iron Maiden songs.

[@OneThousandHomoDJs]

Yes, plus the epic song "Halloween."

[@nikolausherrmann6801]

Inventors of Powermetal. The First EP and 12" and the first 3 Records are pure Classics. Ride the Sky, Twilight of the Gods, I´m alive and so on.

[@Jan-yl7qw]

Bruce Dickinson, Geoff tate, and Michael kiske… they called them… the three "Tremors". a euphemism to say .. the three tenors! thanks for the reaction of this wonderful song. ⛧

[@ArtCartersWrestlingLibrary]

This is one of the most underrated metal bands of the 1980's IMO, alongside of another band called Savatage. Speaking of Savatage, check out Hall of the Mountain King. It's a goddamn epic and VERY seldom mentioned as a heavy metal classic. Also, a fun fact! Several members of Savatage went on to from the Trans-Siberian Orchestra, the group who "metalizes" all of the Christmas music every year.

[@sannyjohnsen2540]

Totally agree, very underrated

[@ShanLH5]

Gutter Ballet was my song! Actually I think that’s the only Savatage song I know haha

[@ArtCartersWrestlingLibrary]

@@ShanLH5 Then DEFINITELY check out Hall of the Mountain King. One of my favorite songs EVER! You'll love it, based on what you've suggested for the guys here in the past.

[@ShanLH5]

@@ArtCartersWrestlingLibrary oh sweet! I will check it out 😊

[@jeffreycherep8264]

Check out Savatage's early stuff off of "Sirens" or "The Dungeons Are Calling". You won't regret it. Criss Oliva was one of my favorite guitarists.

[@maoquesada09]

Michael Kiske is the singer and it is a german Band ...I had the chance to listen to them since they launched their first EP in mid 80s. You should check one video live...and Kiske has been singing with many other bands like Avantasia y some of his personal projects. Check out Eagly Fly Free and the song Helloween....they are amazing!!!

[@thunderspike1892]

This is very classical metal. Michael Kiske on vocals, Kai Hansen & Michael Weikath on guitars, Markus Grosskopf on bass (Grosskopf means Big Head in english) and Ingo Schwichtenberg on drums. Ingo was fired in 1993. He suffered breakdowns and had some illness. Killed himself in 1995 by throwing himself in front of an S-train in Hamburg, Germany RIP. In my opinion a very great drummer with a sad ending. 29 years old

[@joelabel7843]

Ingo fly free!

[@fordap74]

Super Underrated Band.

[@thewildhealer541]

Can't believe you reacted to this underrated masterpiece of power metal. Helloween is a hella good band, you should check out more music from them. They are fucking awesome and paved the way for other power metal bands and started in the 80's

[@stevehedrick5400]

hell yeah!! I was fortunate enough to see these guys open for Exodus and Anthrax on the MTV's Headbangers ball tour in 1989

Congratulations, you unlocked the best vocalist in history. Great musicians too.

[@sannyjohnsen2540]

One ( 2 ) off my fav albums off all times , love the story in it , thoose albums are still locked up in my sheed lol ! U should deff check out the whole story , this is the last part . If U dig this , U should also check King Diamond out , The Eye album , all the songs are awesome in my oppinion , and is a story off a witch in the year off 1800 , as far as i can remember !( long time since ive heard it ) Btw the leadsingers name off this band was Kai hansen who also formed the band , later it was Kiske obv my bad lol ( they are a german band ) I always thought the leadsingers voice , where very simular too Bruce Dickinson from Iron Maiden .

[@mikethemotormouth]

I thought I'd heard Helloween before but this one took me by surprise! I didn't get any Queensryche or Rush but what it felt like was King Diamond wrote a song with Iron Maiden and they somehow got David Gilmour to write a solo. Damn! Good call Joel!

[@dorisg.3]

Helloween is a band of great musicians each in his own way, Michael Kiske on the mic incredible, great album 👌👌👏👏👏🤘💋

Helloween - the king for a thousend years Amazing song

[@Wizzard033]

Loved Helloween since back in the day! Thrash Metal at its finest, kinda symphonic metal. Definitely Head banger music back in the 80's not respected by a lot of the more "main stream" music back then

[@bobbymimms]

Went to see them in 1988 in Edinburgh and some of it ended up on a live album. My first live show and I had just turned 13. I should have started somewhere softer. 🤣 Amazing band!!

I was too young when I was into this band. What do I mean, I was too young to realise what a excellent band they are and I am shameful to say I didn't keep following them! So they missed my whole rock journey ☹️ All I know is I was 10 or younger. I loved Dr Stien back then,still do now it's a good funny rock song that is for sure!

[@carlgibson285]

Great reaction! Helloween took their influences from all over the place (bands like Iron Maiden, early Metallica, Pink Floyd, Yes, Merciful Fate etc), but they're widely regarded as one of the pioneers of speed metal.

[@greaper1976]

You mean Power Metal. Along with Gamma Ray and Blind Guardian

[@carlgibson285]

@@greaper1976 I guess. I'm an old British guy and Helloween were always classed as early speed metal within my circle of friends. I've heard people say Megadeth are speed metal but to me they'll always be thrash, but then again I haven't really listened to either band for 25 years. Tbh I've never really known what power metal is, but if that's what Helloween are I'll take your word for it. Gamma Ray were another great band btw

[@p1g5m0k3]

@@greaper1976 Walls Of Jericho is definitely speed metal. I’d say the Power Metal aspect was made more apparent starting with the Keeper albums. Jericho is straight up thrash and speed with a little bit of early Power Metal in there too. I hear the Power Metal aspect most on that album in the song “Guardians.” Probably because of the major key and uplifting sound of the chorus. Which later became a staple in the genre. Another band they were heavily influenced by was Accept, particularly “Fast As A Shark” which they later covered with Andi Deris on vocals. You can hear the uplifting sound in the dual guitar solo. I would describe Power Metal as sounding “happy or uplifting” at times, with sporadic usages of the major scale in complex and prog compositions. Also a lot of the themes are medieval and fantasy, dragons, castles, Rainbow and Dio stuff.

[@kingofshit303]

[@ryancoke777]

[@MetalAsylumNJ]

Keeper of the Seven Keys parts 1 and 2 are two of the foundation albums of power metal. essential

[@OneThousandHomoDJs]

These dudes were unique, even in the world of metal. They didn't really fit in alongside anyone else -- their first US tour had them sharing the bill with thrash bands, which they were clearly not. Michael's voice was amazing, even among metal singers, and presumably because of their nationality, the guys in the band had a ton of classical influences. They never really made it, but their fans were hardcore. Strongly recommend the official video for "Halloween," whether you can get the 7-minute or the 13-minute version, I have no idea. Either one would be cool. \m/

[@luizde-rossi643]

Great choice, guys! They are the masters of Power Metal! Michael Kiske is among the best singers in Metal history. Many hits(and albums) to check from them.
