** ''Master of the Rings'' would also count, coming off the [[Lighter and Softer]] ''Pink Bubbles Go Ape'' and ''Chameleon''. (Also slightly compared to the ''Keeper of the Seven Keys'' albums, due to Andi Deris' rougher singing style)

** ''Gambling With the Devil'' is mostly more mature, and one could almost conclude that Helloween finally grew up if they were to compare [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cHWK0gzIgM0 "As Long as I Fall"] to their [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8U8gjFx9Vk older] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nAegHGGwru8 work]... except for the fact that ''Gambling With the Devil'' also gave us [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fFNTdJXAAo "Can Do It"].

** ''7 Sinners'' somehow managed to be even more [[Darker and Edgier]] than ''Gambling With The Devil''. Lesee: the two comic songs of the album ("[[Heavy Meta|Are You Metal?]]" and "[[Go Mad From the Revelation|Who's Mr. Madman?]]") are very heavy; there're lots of [[This Is Sparta]] in the songs; even in the normal verses; Dani Loble destroys his drumset in any of the songs, even reaching [[Death Metal]] and [[Black Metal]] speeds, sometimes; "Not Yet Today", the intro to "Far In The Future" is chillingly dark... hell, even the ballad, "The Smile of the Sun" sounds pretty heavy. When the band said that this is the most heaviest and fastest album they made, they weren't joking.
