Helloween / "Sole Survivor" / Master Of The Rings (2) / 1994

Artist: helloween
Original Album: master of the rings
Track: sole survivor

I hope I'm not deemed to be repeating myself too unnecessarily here. Although this isn't the first Helloween track I've picked, it is the first with Andi Deris. It's more or less your standard awesome rock song - lol.

Master of the Rings is a stunningly consistent album in my humble opinion. It's kind of difficult to pick a standout track from it without picking most of the CD. There may be some hints of grunge influence in what was then the 'new' Helloween sound, but on the whole it was a return to the routes and a step in the right direction towards the sound they had when Kai Hansen was still in the band. There's still a world of difference between Jericho/Keepers and post Kiske Helloween, but the more metal sound revived with this release prompted fans to vote with album and ticket sales.

Anyway, I just thought Deris deserved an entry in Song Of The Day, so here it is.
