Helloween are big in Japan

Not really, but put this song in your head, didn’t I? I actually like that song, but then saw Alphaville live and almost got ear cancer.

Anyway, yeah, Helloween released a new album and the results are in! Well, how can I put this? They’re no AC/DC… They sold 1,900 copies in the United States.

Are you metal enough for Helloween?

German power metal band Helloween have decided to have a little fun with their fans.  Slide on over to this site to prove Helloween how metal you really are.  I did the test and scored 100%.  It’s so ridiculous how metal I am.  Feel free to post your score.

A day of interviews

Today was a busy day. Seems that musicians talk way too much… Here’s a quick recap on who had what to say.

First and foremost, our very own Guido did an interview with Thomas Gurrath of Debauchery and Big Ball, and it’s the sweetest thing you’ll read all day. I’m posting the other interviews just so I could make this a “recap” and not “look, we’re awesome” post. Read on to check out a bunch of other ones.

Helloween stream

It’s almost Halloween and what better way to prepare yourself for it than by listening to Helloween? Cause, you know, they’re named “HELLoween” (see what they did there? replaced the ‘a’ with ‘e’ to play with both the words ‘hell’ and ‘halloween’  and it’s just genius)

So yeah, their whole new album is available for streaming on their MySpace page. ALL of it. WOWSA! It’s called “7 Sinners” and it will be released in North America on the 9th of November, but who will buy it if it’s free on the interwebs? Time will tell.

Are you metal, punk?

Helloween, the band who cleverly mixed two words, “Halloween” and “hell” (Helloween, Halloween + Hell, get it? Amazing stuff), released a new music video. And they only have one question… Do you feel metal? Well, do ya, you punks?

Video after the jump…

When asked why the beginning of the song sounds like Mortal Kombat’s theme, Helloween had no comment.

The Return of Helloween

The pioners of power metal are back to release their 13th studo album, “7 Sinners”, on November 9th.

Word on the street is that “7 Sinners” is suppose to be the bands heaviest and fastest album in years.  Most bands say that, but you’d have to agree that it could very well be, since their last album, “Gambling With The Devil”, was  fantastic from start to finish.

“7 Sinners” track listing:

01. Where The Sinners Go
02. Are You Metal?
03. Who is Mr. Madman?
04. Raise The Noise
05. World Of Fantasy
06. Long Live The King
07. The Smile Of The Sun
08. You Stupid Mankind
09. If A Mountain Could Talk
10. The Sage, The Fool, The Sinner
11. My Sacrifice
12. Not Yet Today
13. Far In The Future

As usual, they have some silly song titles again. Are you Metal? Who is Mr. Madman? You stupid mankind? As I said, nothing new,  same lame song titles as expected. It’s all about the “METAL” when it comes to Helloween!
