If you go back in time, to the year 1985, you will see a music world where the word "Power Metal" was absent from any metal definition lexicon. It was something unknown. At that time a band called Helloween tried to make its first steps into the music industry. "Walls Of Jericho" is the first full length album of the band. With its speedy sound, catchy rhythm and Kai Hansen's powerful screams, it is considered to be one of the first albums that gave the spark to light this new eruptive genre of metal, called "Power Metal." Many well known bands of today are still inspired by this album. Read more ›› |

The Helloween debut. An album overshadowed by their classics, the Keepers duo. So when you ask people, what were the first and classic metal albums, few recognize this little gem. Even it take me some time to discover it because of that. The other problem is that the production isn't very good. But if you get the remastered album, the problem is fixed. Then, people see Helloween as a power metal band with high pitched vocals. And Kai Hansen nasal vocals are probably not too tolerable. It took me some listens to love his voice. And it's overall much faster than any other Helloween album. Read more ›› |

Chris Jericho took his pseudonym from this album, isn't it the biggest confirmation of greatness for Helloween debut?! But seriously, this is a legendary work which had a huge impact on Speed and Power Metal by basically perfecting them! The best songs here for me: "Ride The Sky", "Guardians", "Metal Invaders" and "Heavy Metal (Is The Law)". Awesome and essential classic!

Written by A Real Mönkey on 06.06.2024 at 23:27 It was a joke  But I'm curious, why do you think he's sucks? He is a legendary pro-wrestler and has his own successful Rock band. Not exact definition of being "suck".

Written by Majesty1911 on 06.06.2024 at 23:55 Great in the 90s. Should’ve retired a while ago. Now he’s just dragging AEW down to stroke his colossal ego. But that’s neither here nor there. Also Fozzy is mid as fuck.

I thought this album was too long, but I didn't realize it was the reissued version on Spotify with the extra bonus tracks. Those tracks are probably my favorites though
