HELLOWEEN “BEST TIME”: NEW SINGLE AND VIDEO OUT NOW!

27th May 2022 0 By Jon Deaux

HELLOWEEN would like to celebrate again with their fans – with “BEST TIME”, THE party song of their 2021 album “HELLOWEEN”.

The sunny and straight hymn by Sascha Gerstner and Andi Deris revives the good times and shows with their drifty guitars and top form front men a song full of the joys. About the songwriting of “BEST TIME” Sascha Gerstner states: “I had an ’80’s Neo Noir-Vibe’ in my head. The riff was originally a synth-riff, which we arranged later for guitars. The wording ‘I will have the best time of my life’ was pretty spontaneous because I had this strong feeling to leave the past behind and Seize the day! Andi instantly loved the idea as well as the refrain and together we created the track as it is now!”

“BEST TIME” comes with a terrific 80’s retro-artwork by cartoonist and HELLOWEEN fan Marcos Moura in a 2,000 pieces limited edition of a 12-inch vinyl, available in three colors as well as a bundle: vinyl single and t-shirt.

Visually the new single is a real goodie as well – under the administration of Martin Häusler („Skyfall“) an extreme cool 3D-roadmovie developed and one lost sight of the difficult conditions: the band was added via live material and the Canadian ARCH ENEMY-frontwoman ALISSA WHITE-GLUZ complimented the video with her appearance and stated: “ After playing multiple festivals together and touring extensively in South America a few years back, Helloween and I decided to make a fun video to reminisce about the good times while simultaneously planning for many more!”

And yes, finally the band will be on the road again! After this long dry spell you can’t even talk about feeling like champing at the bit, it is more like an immense roaring of a ravenous pride of lions – that is how much everyone is in anticipation of the upcoming live dates.

Since the UNITED FORCES WORLD TOUR 2022/23 kicked off the overdue tour on 4th of May in Manchester, all metal heads get their rightly double dose: the ultimate HELLOWEEN line-up together with finest, Swedish steel as in HAMMERFALL – a massive mega-package which is totally adequate after two years of total live vacuum.
