Helloween was pretty cool and I like their new album, much more than Rabbit Don't Come Easy but it's lacking something. Perhaps it's the straight forward headbanging songs they used to make. This album was pretty much all arena anthems and while they are alright, they are best in moderation. Plus the leads are pretty sloppy. I'm not saying they suck by any means, but watching what they do and seeing how simplistic some of it is really changed my opinion of them. This album is certainly trying to be a simplistic & fun rocker, unlike Better than Raw and the Dark Ride which were just awesome power metal CD's. They put on a hell of a show too. I'd see them again.
