Additional informationRecorded at Horus Sound Studio, Hannover, Germany from May to June 1988. The follow-up to what was arguably Helloween's finest album, KEEPER OF THE SEVEN KEYS PART 1, finds the German power-metal pioneers in something of a holding pattern. While PART 2 doesn't match the glory of its predecessor, it still represents Helloween as one of Europe's finest and most influential metal outfits, with songs like "I Want Out" showing off their trademark blend of classic metal structures and thrash metal intensity. The album would be founding member/guitarist Kai Hansen's last with the group, and while Helloween would go on to future success with new line-ups, KEEPER OF THE SEVEN KEYS PART 2 marks the last gasp of their classic line-up.
