Six of HELLOWEEN's most interesting, transitional albums — "Walls Of Jericho", "Pink Bubbles Go Ape", "Chameleon", "Master Of The Rings", "The Time Of The Oath" and "Better Than Raw" — are being reissued as remastered, deluxe expanded edition CDs by Sanctuary Records on April 25, 2006. Bonus tracks include rare B-sides, remixes and live versions. "Walls Of Jericho", "Chameleon", "Master Of The Rings" and "The Time Of The Oath" are two-CD sets while "Pink Bubbles Go Ape" and "Better Than Raw" are each one fully packed CD. All six releases include informative liner notes with essays, new interviews with guitarist Michael Weikath, lyrics and photos.

 

"Walls Of Jericho" was originally released in late 1985. It was HELLOWEEN's first full-length album following the appearance of the mini-album "Helloween" earlier that year. In addition to "Walls Of Jericho" itself, this two-CD reissue also includes the five songs from "Helloween" and a track from the picture-disc version, two songs from 1984's compilation album/sampler "Death Metal", 1986's "Judas" EP and two emixes from 2002's "Treasure Chest".

 

"Pink Bubbles Go Ape" hit the streets in 1991 and it was HELLOWEEN's first album with guitarist Roland Grapow, who had replaced Kai Hansen. "Chameleon" followed in 1993 and this experimental effort was the final album with vocalist Michael Kiske. "Master Of The Rings" appeared in 1994 and it marked the debut of vocalist Andi Deris. "The Time Of The Oath" was issued in 1996 and it is generally regarded as containing the band's strongest, most cohesive set of songs since the mid-1980s classics "Keeper Of The Seven Keys, Pt. 1" and "Keeper Of The Seven Keys, Pt. 2". "Better Than Raw" came out in 1998 and it found HELLOWEEN adding progressive elements as well as touches of neo-classical and neo-black metal.

Ne znam zasto su radili uopste Better than raw, meni je taj album produkcijski savrsen i najbolje uradjeni album helloweena, ne znam zasto bi nesto menjali... Takodje i Chameleon produkcijski zvuci veoma dobro.

Jedino moram da nabavim Walls
