Helloween is a German metal band formed in Hamburg in 1984 by Michael Weikath, Markus Grosskopf, Kai Hansen, and Ingo Schwichtenberg. From the start, they became pioneers of power metal, blending speed, melody, and epic choruses with unmatched precision.

⚡ The golden age of Keeper of the Seven Keys

With Michael Kiske on vocals, Helloween made history through Keeper of the Seven Keys Part I and Part II—two masterpieces that defined the sound of modern power metal and catapulted the band onto the world’s biggest stages.
