On the day that this album was released, I booted up my laptop first thing in the morning, logged into amazon.com, and quickly bought and downloaded this album, and then added it onto my iPod right away. Now that I have listened to it from beginning to end, now is the time for this review to be done.I really have to say that Helloween just WILL NOT let up, just like with a lot of their peers. They just keep cranking out one masterpiece after another, as a result of the fact that they just love what they do, while not caring in the least what anyone else thinks. Right from start to finish, this entitre album fills the listener with tremendously uplifting energy and emotion. Such was definitely the case with me when I listened to it during my commute to work on a very cold New England winter morning, and right after a three-day weekend, no less. For that reason alone, I am very glad that I bought this album as early as I did.Getting more specific, every track is rich, pure, and filled with that uplifting high-level intensity that Helloween are known for, be it from Andi Deris' high-flying, powerful voice, or the fast and complex guitar solos, along with the prominent use of keyboards in some of the songs. I am not going to get track-by-track specific with this review, as I do not wish to spoil the listening experience for anyone looking to get this album. Besides, there are other reviewers who can take care of that just fine without my help.Also, I just want to throw this out there as well: I really have to say that Andi Deris, despite his differing vocal style as compared with Michael Kiske, really has MORE than held his own with Helloween, ever since his introduction in 1994 with the Master Of The Rings album. He has been with the band for almost 20 years, and there is a reason for it. He really has contributed A LOT to the band, both vocally and lyrically, and for the better, and he further proves it with this album.Overall, this is an all-around awesome power metal album, and it may yet prove to be one of the best realeases of 2013 for metal as a whole. This amazing band just WILL NOT let up, and they never stop making great music. Right along with Stratovarius and Gamma Ray, Helloween are easily one of the best bands in the last 25 years, no questions asked. Anyone who does not think so has no business calling themselves a power metal fan, or even a rock fan in general for that matter. These guys deserve to be as followed as Iron Maiden, and I am sure a lot of power metal fans will agree.I can't wait until Stratovarius and Gamma Ray release THEIR new albums later this year, the former of which is due for realease next month. As a fan of those bands as well, I have the same expectations for them as I rightfully had for Helloween, concerning this release.Anyways, just stop reading this review and BUY THIS ALBUM!!! HAIL HELLOWEEN!!! HAIL POWER METAL!!! \m/\m/
