Alongside Switzerland’s Celtic Frost and Sweden's Bathory, Germany’s Helloween were possibly the most influential heavy metal band to come out of Europe during the 1980s. By taking the hard-riffing minor key melodies handed down from metal masters like Judas Priest and Iron Maiden, then infusing them with the speed and energy introduced by the burgeoning thrash metal movement, Helloween crystallized the sonic ingredients of what is now known as power metal.

Although the band experienced key line up changes Helloween took their hardknock lessons in their stride and continued to prosper in the international metal arena on their own terms. More importantly, they stil remain the benchmark by which almost every power metal band is still measured.

2003’s ‘Rabbit Don’t Come Easy’ saw the debut of guitarist Sascha Gerstner (ex-Freedom Call, Neumond), with Motorhead drummer Mikkey Dee guesting. This Special Edition includes three bonus tracks, including covers of Accept and Queen classics.
