I know there are a lot of Helloween fans here. They're probably my absolute favourite power metal band of all time. I love how they can produce the serious songs and then make songs such as 'Perfect Gentleman'. Like most fans, I perfer the Kiske/Hansen albums to the more recent ones. I think Deris' voice is more suited for a heavy metal band TBH. Though it is still enjoyable to listen to him.

What are your thoughts on this band?

Keeper II is much better than Keeper I in my humble opinion. If all power flower metal was as good as this album, I'd be a fan of the genre. Sadly, nothing better than both Keepers was released in the last 2 decades.

In power metal nothing better has indeed been released in the last 2 decades

Yeah Keeper II is a pretty perfect album.

For me Keeper II is without competition the best power metal album ever. Not even Keeper I is close as good. I think Viper - Theatre Of Fate and some Blind Guardian albums are the closest in quality I have heard.

Ok ok wow wait ? I don't get you all folks ? You guys really prefer Keeper II over Keeper I I do give you guys that the song itself surpasses Halloween... but uh, idk it fails to bring that unity, which Keeper I has no doubt. I mean I never skip a song on Keeper I, but on Keeper II... Rise and fall ? We got the right ? -_- Idk opinions once again.

Damn you, Guib, stop me from agreeing with you. This is the second time today I fully agree with you Keeper I is vastly superior for me than Keeper II.

Keeper I is vastly superior to Keeper II.

"Halloween" is vastly superior to "Keeper of the Seven Keys".

I prefer "Halloween" chorus-wise as well. "Halloween" also contains what may be the greatest moment ever in recorded music. OK, it's not, but still:

It's comin' nearer
It's shining
It's shining so bright
It's shining on me-e-e!

It's both hilarious and awesome at the same time.

Bleh I still think ''Keeper of the seven keys'' the song itself surpasses ''Halloween'' even though I prefer Keeper I as a whole.

German metallers HELLOWEEN have paid tribute to their founding drummer Ingo Schwichtenberg on the 25th anniversary of his death.

Earlier today (Sunday, March 8), HELLOWEEN uploaded a four-minute video of a Schwichtenberg drum solo, along with the following message: "On this day 25 years ago our friend Ingo Schwichtenberg passed away. We will never forget him."
