It has become a cliché for established metal bands to tout their newest album as their 'fastest' or 'heaviest' album ever made, but in Helloween's case, 7 Sinners is truly a return to form and is indeed their fastest and heaviest release in years.
Harkening back to the glory days of Walls Of Jericho and Keeper of the Seven Keys and latter era masterpieces like Better Than Raw and The Dark Ride, 7 Sinners bursts with vitality, proving yet again why Helloween are innovators in the genres of power and thrash metal.
