I also remember a few months ago there was some Jackass who kept going onto almost every Helloween video and would leave the same comment saying something to the effect of "simple music for simple minded people, long live ignorant sheep" although he probably gotted banned or something cause I never heard from him again after that incident.

It is kind of hilarious cause when someone feels the need to insult the band it seems they can't come up with a intelligent argument so they resort to fourth grade type insults like "this member sucks" or "your stupid for listening to this band"

The only thing more annoying then Kiske Fanboys and DragonForce Hater are AVGN Fanboys. If you do something involving video games you'll propably get one "YOU'RE A AVGN RIP-OFF!" Comment. If you do something that involves swearing you'll propably get a "YOU'RE A AVGN RIP-OFF!". Hell, if you'd just post a video of yourself breathing chances are high that you would propably get a "YOU'RE A AVGN RIP-OFF!" too. But Fanboys in generell can get anoying. Especially if you DARE to disagree with something that their Idol has said. Do you know how many ppl get flamed just because they like Castlevania II or any other game the AVGN reviews?

Unfortunately those are the people who don't like things to change and only want them one way. So when you say you like something they despise your automatically "stupid" or "retarded" for even liking it.

Indeed.

Actually, the only one who really deserves the AVGN Rip-Off comments is the Irate Gamer for he is a utter and complete Rip-Off.

It's the same with Helloween as well, when you tell the Kiske fanboys that you like the Deris years they automatically look at you like your some kind of idiot.

Most of them are like "HOW DARE YOU DON'T LIKE KISKE? HOW DARE YOU SAY ANYTHING BAD ABOUT KISKE?"

Seen someone named "FuckyouDeris" too :lol: It's so stupid. You guys mentioned Dragonforce, for example. I can't stand them, but I'm not going on every one of their videos and say they suck, I just don't listen to them, it's that simple.

I was watching the Hellish Videos DVD last nite. Damn, the Perfect Gentleman video cracks me up every time I watch it. That one is probably my favorite :D

Actually I don't like the video. I get the idea but I don't like comical attempt so much. I think the video could've been a bit more serious. I mean, the song isn't a song I would call a typical happy and funny Helloween song. Actually I can somehow picture the song as Villian song for some cheesy musical.

Here's the thing though, regardless of any bumps along the way I think Helloween has had and will continue to have a distinguished career.

I'm really looking forward to hearing their next album

I look forward to tasting their next album since "you are what you eat". So far I have just ventured into pumpkin pie and rabbits. Lots of hops in my drink too.

I wonder if they'll release something this year. I know there was talk of a 25th Anniversary surprise but until now nothing has been announced.

I am thinking that they have not announced anything to build up the surprise. We will have to see though.

That's what I figured, the official website has been rather slow lately and usually that means the band is hard at work on something.

So slow websites equals hard working band? I guess Michael Jacksons website was also very slow the last few weeks. Does it mean he is hard at work too?

Ragehead:I did open that one up I guess :lol:

But seriously I'm sure they are working on the next album, I hope they combine elements from both Keepers the legacy(the melodic stuff) and gambling with the devil(the heavy stuff)

I want a guest appearance from Hansen for a cd on their 25th. It seems fitting since him , Markus Grosskopf , and Michael Weikath are the only live members to actually have those 25 years since they began. With Hansen playing with them on their last tours it seems they could have come up with something together.

I'm for a guest appereance from Hansen ONLY IF DOESN'T SING AND ONLY PLAYS GUITAR! He already ruins every Gamma Ray record with his horrible voice. I don't want him to ruin the next Helloween CD too.

I like Kai Hansen's voice, I think he's a great singer.
