HELLOWEEN<\/strong> will celebrate four decades of metal mastery with a global 40th anniversary tour. The European leg begins in mid-October, with initial dates selling out quickly and additional shows in Madrid and Bochum already on sale. Featuring an ultimate set list packed with surprises, the tour will showcase the band\u2019s unparalleled legacy and ongoing creative power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

GIANTS & MONSTERS<\/u><\/strong> pushes the boundaries of HELLOWEEN<\/strong>\u2019s sound, thanks to the instincts of producers Charlie Bauerfeind<\/strong> and Dennis Ward<\/strong>, as well as the band\u2019s relentless pursuit of excellence. Per example, drummer Dani L\u00f6ble<\/strong> recorded all tracks using three different drum kits to capture the perfect vibe for each song, a testament to their attention to detail and love of experimentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The band\u2019s chemistry continues to drive their success. \u201cWhat keeps motivating us is the fact that we\u2019re extremely different. It generates creative energy,\u201d<\/em> says guitarist Michael Weikath<\/strong>. Kai Hansen<\/strong> adds: \u201cWe try not to take ourselves and everything around us too seriously.\u201d<\/em> Deris<\/strong> sums it up: \u201cIn the end, we\u2019re just seven guys who want to make music and enjoy the incomparable force that arises when we\u2019re together. HELLOWEEN is way more powerful than the sum of its parts.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having received 15 Gold awards, six Platinum awards and selling over ten million records, HELLOWEEN<\/strong> are celebrating the band\u2019s 40th<\/sup> anniversary with the successor to their self-titled #1 album from 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With GIANTS & MONSTERS<\/u>,<\/strong> HELLOWEEN<\/strong> boldly step into their fifth decade, proving once again why they remain one of the most influential and beloved bands in heavy metal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
