Helloween is 'Pumpkins United'

German power metal legends Helloween have united forces with old members Kai Hansen and Michael Kiske. With this collaboration, they now release a new song 'Pumpkins United'. You can get it free from the band's website!

This bunch will also get on the road later this year and the next one, over many continents.

The band commented:

"WHOA.

The PUMPKINS UNITED WORLD TOUR is going to be raw awesomeness! The news of Andi, Michi, Kai, Weiki, Sascha, Markus, and Dani turning in a unique premiere and entering the stage together has struck like a bombshell. Allow us to briefly show off with some numbers: The Super Tour, with plenty of dates being sold out for a while now, will be witnessed by more than 10,000 in Mexico City, 16,000 Brazilians will be rocking out in Sao Paulo, 9,000 have checked in at Santiago de Chile while in Stuttgart there'll be 6,000; 8,000 can't wait until the Milan show and finally there will be ultimate mayhem at the mega highlights in Prague with 12,000 tickets sold as well as in Madrid with, believe it or not, 14,000 (!) Spanish Pumpkinheads. No wonder, the metal press features hardly any other band in its cover stories and the world's biggest metal mag BURRN! dedicates an unbelievable 41-page spread to PUMPKINS UNITED. This world tour will be forever unforgettable for the entire band and far more than 100,000 HELLOWEEN maniacs all over the planet.

WHAT?!

As we all know, HELLOWEEN is addictive – and so the boys can't wait for the tour to start either and are releasing yet another sensational announcement while hunkering down in the rehearsal room: PUMPKINS UNITED are not only preparing to share the live stage, but have also written and recorded an exclusive song together. This year, Christmas and New Year's eve happen in October, because the aptly titled track 'PUMPKINS UNITED' blends everything that has made this band world-famous and a true trailblazer of an own sub genre: power guitar riffs, three-part guitar solos, double bass thunderstorms, and melodic-anthemic choruses soaring above all else, performed by all three singers of the band's history! So this track is all about maximum “UNITED feeling” and a dream hardly anyone thought would come true. And now for the cherry on top: As a thank you to all fans for a quarter of a century of HELLOWEEN mania and decades of loyalty, 'PUMPKINS UNITED' will be available via helloween.org from October 13 as a FREE DOWNLOAD!

WHO-HOO!

PUMPKINS UNITED airlines is ready for take-off: Tour riders have been sent long since, the crew is loading the flight cases, the new track is on repeat, and the boys are properly pumped up because the eagerly awaited kick-off in Mexico on October 19 is just around the corner now. But whether you have tickets or not: We highly recommend to stay tuned – for who knows where this unbelievable PUMPKINS UNITED journey will lead to from here..."

The 10" vinyl singles in orange or black will be released on 8th of December, 201, via Nuclear Blast Records.
