My God‐Given Right

My God-Given Right, released in 2015, represents the 15th studio outing for the German power metal legends. Recorded at the band's own Mi Sueno Studio in Tenerife with longtime producer Charlie Bauerfeind, the album serves as a definitive statement of the 'Deris-era' lineup's chemistry. Sonically, it leans heavily into the melodic speed metal and anthemic hard rock that defined their mid-career resurgence, moving away from the darker experimentation of 7 Sinners. The album is notable for its length, featuring 16 tracks that range from bite-sized radio-ready metal to the seven-minute epic 'You, Still of War.' Critically, it was viewed as a 'safe' but highly effective entry in their discography, reinforcing their status as masters of the genre. It debuted at number 8 on the German charts, proving the enduring appeal of their signature 'happy-happy Helloween' sound even decades into their career.
