The song apparently does exist, and a pumpkin illustration was done for it along with the other 7 Sinners tracks, so I think it is real. lol Its probably being kept back for a single b-side, or for a future limited edition release of the album. (which I hate!)

Not really hit me yet. Nothing stands out. Guitar tone very different from previous albums. Almost sounds like US power metal in parts (not all).
Hope it will grow on me. Not as accessible as last album.

Im not saying you will end up liking it, but I can say it was a grower for me. Not much stood out to me on first listen. It took repeated plays for me to like most of the songs. xD

Will keep trying, I want to like it as I am a big Helloween fan. Little has made me sit up and listen at the moment.
Still, some of my favourite albums I didn't like the first time through, the growers are usually the ones that become classics later.

One of the reasons I persevered with it, is because Im a big Helloween fan. lol I think why it was so slow to grow on me, is because the album is not a very typical Helloween one. Its different, more modern.
I think its a bit too early for me to call it a "classic", but I can say I really like it. xD And I didnt think too much of it at first. hehee

Each member writes X amount of songs by themselves without any input from other band members, you can wiki the album if you dont understand

Markus' "World Of Fantasy" is amazing, and is one of the very best songs on the album. If not THE best song. "You Stupid Mankind" by Sascha is one of the best songs too. I didnt like "My Sacrifice" initially, but it grew on me, and now, I think it's a great song. 
The worst song for me is easily "Where The Sinners Go". No matter how many times I hear it, it never elevates itself above "hmm... this is okay I guess" for me. lol

Yes, "World Of Fantasy" is one of the best, and i agree exactly with you in the songs "My Sacrifice" (finally i like it a lot) and "Where The Sinners Go", this last the worst for me.

Been listening carefully now at home on the big system. The music is certainly great, instrumentally up to the task as you would expect from Helloween. Vocals I won't rate as I never liked Deris.
For me the first half (or less) of the album is quite weak, is probably what put me away the first time. Once it kicks in with speed and power, it feels much more like the real Helloween. Some catchy tunes here.
Still uncertain what rating to put for it, it depends what I must compare it to. As a power metal album, it gets 7, as it is well done but does not introduce much new. As a Helloween album, when we compare it to Keeper I and II, then I can't give it more than 5. But if we compare it to recent Helloween works, it gets 9 or 10 with no doubt.
Overall, it is nice to see that Helloween is not in decay, they came up with a very good album and looks like are on the rise again.

7 sinners imo is not compareble wit keepers album(even keeper III imo is not compareble wit other 2)..i look it as normal Helloween album and its great..
I just hate when they put that fast and great songs as bonus tracks like Faster we fall and Aiming high instead weaker song like Where the sinners go..but i dont see hole first part as weaker..just opening track and maybe little Are you metal..but that is mater of taste..:) you rate it as you like it

Looking back at this album half a year on, and it is still one of the best albums this band has ever released. I think after this long I was sick of "Gambling..."
Can't figure out if I prefer this or "The Dark Ride", but either way - it is in my top four Helloween albums...

I agree..7 sinners is my favorite album after keeper II..
it is great album and its fresh..
like you said im sick of Gambling(not cos its bad) and old Helloween albums..
i love metal of the 80s but i like new and fresh more(when the albums are good ofcours)and that is the case of this album!
Maybe(i hope) next album will be even better and i will put 7 sinners aside after a long time listening!

Helloween is one of my favorite bands. I like their music a lot but i just don't think 7 Sinners is their best effort, i think this band can offer more especially Michael Weikath. It might be better than Keeper Legacy but i wouldn't say it's better than Gambling. 7 Sinners might have better songs but the amount of good songs on Gambling are more. Many people seem to have fell in love with this record which isn't bad, it's better than 95% of the releases in 2010 but i wouldn't give it more than an 8. Time Of The Oath and Dark Ride beat this one by far and so do the Keepers...

Regards the 7 sinners, by my opinion it is great album, and i think Andi's performance on the album is good enough to bring the whole album to the best of "Deris era"..... good sound quality, and heavy riffs etc...... but, i just checked their live performance from wacken 2011, live.... a full concert about 1 hour...... god, how much they suck!! Deris singing Kiske songs is the worst side of the whole Helloween story..... March of time, i'm alive, i want out, dr stein....... I'm sorry if there are a lot of Deris fans on this site, he's great singer, really, but rather singing in Pink Cream 69.
I like his voice rather low pitched, fast, or his strong screams at times, but eagle fly free and the other Keepers..... thanks, but no thanks.

no problem..my english is limited so i cant write all what is on my mind and i will be limited on this one sorry..im agreeing that many people( and some that i know) are stuck in the moment with keeper albums and dont see further ahead..maybe becose later albums are(pink and cameleon) disappointing and others imo just average till gambling and 7 sinners whas recorded..i know people that hate andis singing and so every album is shit to them becose its not kiske or hansen on album but they didnt bother listen more then 2 songs..i dont like this kind of judging but that kind of people exist and have right to do this..im a big fan but i dont think that everything Helloween do is gold..they do some bad songs and albums but i try to judge album odjective! maybe im wrong but im with you!

Only recommend to new listeners. If you have been listening to Metal for more than 5 years and yet still love this album, then I would say you are disgraceful.
Everyone is entitled to their opinion and taste .. I listen to metal for more than 12 years and especially like power metal and Helloween and I think this is one of the best of their albums .. and I do not see a problem with this and why im disgraceful and compare to who or what?

I have been "seriously" listening Metal for 27 years. The Time of The Oath is their Best, those Part 1, Part 2 shit are definitely overrated, may be for children, sound kiddy to me. As for 7 Sinners........z z z z z......
Walls Of Jericho is imo better then Time Of The Oath..but like i said you have your opinion and i have mine and its ok..nothing disgraceful in that and cos i like 7 sinners and keeper 2..maybe it is(in your eyes) for kidds and maybe there is a kidd still in me and i like it..maybe when i will be older as you are(no ofence) will se things different..till then i will disagree with you that im disgraceful becose i like something that you dont!:)
