Helloween - Reveal New Single Feat. Michael Kiske, Kai Hansen


After the surprise news that Andi Deris, Michael Kiske, Kai Hansen, Michael Weikath, Sascha Gerstner, Markus Grosskopf, and Daniel Löble would be sharing the same stage again on the Pumpkins United World Tour, Helloween have another treat for their fans today. The boys can't wait for the tour to start and Pumpkins United are not only preparing to share the live stage, but have also written and recorded an exclusive song together. Watch the "Pumpkins United" lyric video here and rejoice.




Press release: This year, Christmas and New Year's eve happen in October, because the aptly titled track "Pumpkins United" blends everything that has made this band world-famous and a true trailblazer of an own sub genre: power guitar riffs, three-part guitar solos, double bass thunderstorms, and melodic-anthemic choruses soaring above all else, performed by all three singers in the band's history! So this track is all about maximum "United feeling" and a dream hardly anyone thought would come true. And now for the cherry on top: As a thank you to all fans for a quarter of a century of Helloween mania and decades of loyalty, 'Pumpkins United' will be available via helloween.org from October 13 as a free download!

Pre-order the single here.




The super tour, with plenty of dates sold out for a while now, will be witnessed by more than 10,000 in Mexico City, 16,000 Brazilians will be rocking out in São Paulo, 9,000 have checked in at Santiago de Chile while in Stuttgart there'll be 6,000; 8,000 can't wait until the Milan show. Finally there will be ultimate mayhem at the mega show in Prague with 12,000 tickets sold as well as in Madrid with, believe it or not, 14,000 (!) Spanish Pumpkinheads. This world tour will be forever unforgettable for the entire band and far more than 100,000 Helloween maniacs all over the planet.

I have a very soft spot for Helloween with Kiske and Hansen.

Is this the first time you ever hear about Helloween or something?

I haven't in a really long time. I know all of their albums are stupid like this.

I love songs like this. They're cheesy as hell but I love all the callbacks to previous songs and albums. Twilightning's "Into Treason" and Jon Olivas Pain's "People Say (Gimme Some Hell)" are similar and I love it!

It's decent. Although the writing in this is indeed sub-par for Helloween, it is nice to hear Kiske and Hansen rejoin Helloween again. Just too bad Ingo (RIP) couldn't be a part of it. I look forward to hearing some stuff from the Pumpkins United tour and whatever new material they're going to do in the near future.

With that being said...I know everyone has an opinion, and I respect that, but you guys who are calling Helloween stupid and saying that they suck is unbelievable considering the amount of ridiculous, pretentious bullshit you have listed in your profiles. Why bother posting on articles pertaining to bands you don't even like? Is it an attempt at trying to appear "witty", "elite", or "cool" on the internet? If so, that's just sad your life has come to that.

Yeah I don't understand the hate for this. This is some good stuff. Great to hear power metal legends come together and still sound this good after so many years.

Well i Like Helloween a lot and I find this really really mediocre. I can't wait to see Kai and Michael together, but this release is not the reason at all
