Time of the Oath album Product Description
Despite the difficulties that had plagued them in recent years (including inconsistent albums, constant lineup changes, and even the suicide of founding drummer Ingo Schwichtenberg), German power metal kings Helloween had been gradually finding their way back to the glory of their early days with each succeeding release. And with their seventh album, 1996's The Time of the Oath, they pretty much arrived, delivering their best collection of songs in almost a decade and never straying from their patented Euro-metal formula. Come on, Helloween pretty much invented this stuff, and the hundreds of disciples they inspired into existence simply couldn't be wrong -- this was still an important band. The Time of the Oath adds nearly nothing new to the group's well-established sound (quasi-thrash riffing, harmony guitars, piercing chorused vocals), yet -- for the first time in years -- they manage to steer clear of the pop-metal pitfalls, corny lyrics, and forced comedy that had sunk them in the first place. ...See Full Description

| Very good album! (4.5 stars) The Time of the Oath is one of Helloween's better albums. The selection of songs is very strong and the music on the album is definitely in the typical Helloween vein. What makes this release even more special is the inclusion of a second CD containing all the b-sides and bonus tracks from this recording session. All six "extra" songs are worth the money and I especially like the last two, written by singer Andi Deris. By The Wildman (San Jose, CA) |
| Time for Helloween This is a great album, with all songs being top notch. I think alot of thought and effort was put into this album by Helloween. What really struck me about this album is how strong the band plays together. By shion (Colombo, Sri Laka)  This review is for a different format. |
