No pressure Helloween, it's not like this will be the most anticipated power metal album released this decade or anything.

C'mon, man, some days ago the track was released and it's really good. And also, there's an issue if your statement were true? Couldn't we just respect other ones tastes, or that just it applies if my case were instead of Power Metal bands to have listed only Black/Death Metal bands?

Definitively Power Metal is heavily victim of unfair prejudices in this site... and every kind of music not having Cookie Monster at vocals and blast beats all around...

I'm far from a Helloween fan, but Skyfall grew on me a ton. Heard the full version as well, pretty epic, doesn't feel like it's long.

Meh, I am not looking forward to this with high expectations. I can't stand Kiske's whiney voice. Hansen I'm good with. I really liked Jericho and Gamma Ray. I did not like Skyfall but Fear of the Fallen was much better the production actually sounds good like it did on their previous 2 albums. But it sounds like a good vocalized concept idea.

I think it's safe to say this is the best power metal this year and in a long ass time

Cannot believe they still have it in 2021, this is straight from the 80s

It's surprisingly good. I'm actually very impressed on how good most of the songs are and how heavy the album is. Fear of the Fallen, Mass Pollution, Robot King, Cyanide, Indestructible and Skyfall are all fantastic. Good job Pumpkins!

It's crazy how good this album is. My expectations were pretty low. I didn't like the idea of having too many cooks in the album, but damn i was surprised. For me it's the best Helloween album since Gambling with The Devil

I am listening to the album in spotify and when i checked the credits of the songs , Kai Hansen appear as a composer in Best time , Mass Polution , Rise without chains , Indestructible and cyanide ... I thought he only composed Skyfall.

I knew once Skyfall hit that this was going to be a kick ass album. I'm glad that it sounds as good as I was anticipating. Well worth the wait.

Seems band wanted to put their best album out ,but its to late, even they are experienced song fighters, but its late. 80's heyday is gone , but this is good, good album, whole disco even crappy pink grapes going wild was OK, I like their disco, but here for being come back and super album, something is missing.

Some time ago in my mid 20's early 20's I hated Helloween after Keeper II, but then somehow in early 30's I did listen whole cataloged and every album is good, even Pink Bubbles, Chameleon, Master of Rings and all what follows, if you listen more as once, there in each album has something. I will listen this more and I can say probbaly I will like it more.

Ok this is exactly what I expected it to be. One thing I would like to point out is how well the vocals blend together despite how different each singer is. The only thing I did not like is that there is no "Tale that wasn't right-ish" ballad in it. Other than that, even the bonus tracks (Golden Times) are better than what most bands release as promo singles these days. Also , on the physical aspect, Nuclear Blast did amazing work with the artwork and picture discs.

I typically go out of my way to avoid power metal but it's not often a recent release with this many votes maintains such a high score. Will check it out tonight just to see what all the commotion is about.

I think this album is a tad overrated. Just seems like pretty average power metal. Some of the vocals are kind of weak as well.
