Gamma Ray - 6 Remastered Albums (1990 - 1999) [Victor, Noise] Re-up

Founded in 1989 by Kai Hansen in Hamburg, Germany after leaving Helloween, Gamma Ray borrowed straight from the Helloween classics, and continued to pioneer Hansen’s style of power metal.

After four years with Helloween, Kai Hansen decided to leave the band at the height of their career. He then went on to do some studio work with Blind Guardian.

Kai and his friend Ralf Scheepers from Tyran’ Pace decided to start a project. They recruited bassist Uwe Wessel and drummer Mathias Burchard. The resulting sound was very close to Helloween’s power metal style.

The first album Heading For Tomorrow was released in 1990. Two lineup changes resulted in Uli Kusch (who would later join Helloween) becoming the bands second drummer and Dirk Schlachter becoming a new guitarist. The new lineup released the Heaven Can Wait EP.

In 1991 the band released Sigh No More, which resulted in a 50 date world tour.

In 1993 Uli Kusch left the band and was replaced with Thomas Nack and Jan Rubach who replaced Uwe Wessel as the new bassist. The resulting cd was Insanity and Genius. Later that year, along with Rage, Helicon and Conception the band played on a tour called “Melodic Metal Strikes Back”. This resulted in a double CD release and video called Power of Metal. They also released Lust For Live which did not feature the other bands.

The band were ready to start work on a fourth album, things were put on hold after vocalist Ralf Scheepers auditioned to be the new vocalist for the legendary metal band Judas Priest, his chances were considered good and with no hard feelings, Hansen and Scheepers decided it would be best if Ralf left the band. Kai Hansen took up guitar and vocal duties.

In 1995 the album Land of the Free was released, fans and critics were very impressed with the release and it is still considered to be the bands most popular release to date amongst fans. The band toured and released the live album Alive 95 in 1996.

More lineup changes resulted in Jan Rubach and Thomas Nack leaving. Dan Zimmerman (who is also a member of Freedom Call) became drummer and Schlachter decided to change from guitarist to bassist. Henjo Richter was brought in to become the bands new lead guitarist. This lineup is still the current Gamma Ray lineup as of 2008.

1997 saw the release of a concept album named Somewhere Out In Space, this album focused on the band’s fascination with the universe. The band then toured and finally released the album Powerplant. This album had a similar approach to lyrics as the previous album but took a new musical approach. The album was highly acclaimed throughout the world.

The “Best of” album named Blast From The Past was released with songs from the Scheepers era being re recorded with the new members and Hansen on vocals.

After the recording of a new album which was yet to be named the band took a year off.

After this break, which saw Hansen focusing on side project Iron Savior, the band released No World Order, an album which sounded like no other the band had released. This album showed the bands main influences, classic metal bands such as Judas Priest and Iron Maiden. The band set off on the No World Order tour which saw them tour Europe and Japan. After a short break the band went on tour again, this tour was called the Skeletons In The Closet Tour. What was special about this tour was that the set list was chosen by fans of Gamma Ray on the offical website. Two shows were recorded and the album called Skeletons In The Closet was released.

The next studio album was released in 2005, the first since the 2001 release, No World Order. This album was called Majestic. This reached respectable chart positions such as number 20 in Sweden, number 28 in Finland and number 39 in the band’s home country Germany.

In November 2007, the band released Land of the Free II, a follow up to the 1995 album Land Of The Free which follows the same concept. After the release of this album, Gamma Ray joined up with Helloween for the Hellish Rock tour which ended in October of 2008.

A live DVD was recorded on May 6th, 2006 in Montreal, Quebec. Under the title “Hell Yeah! The Awesome Foursome (and the Finnish keyboarder who didn’t want to wear his Donald Duck costume) Live in Montreal” and was released on November 4, 2008. The release, which was plagued by setbacks, also included a third disc which contains a road movie shot during the European leg of the Hellish Rock tour in 2008 and 4 songs from “Land of the Free II” which were recorded live in Spain.

A companion double live CD was also released on November 4, with the same name and contains all the songs from the 2006 Montreal concert and the 4 songs recorded in Spain in 2008.

Gamma Ray played several festivals in 2009, spending the bulk of the year working on their forthcoming album. There they debuted the first new song entitled “To the Metal” which is also the title of their 2010 release.

“To The Metal” will be released January 29, 2010, and the band will commence a European tour starting February 6, 2010 in their home city of Hamburg, Germany with Freedom Call and Secret Sphere

Gamma Ray Biography:

Kai Hansen formed Helloween in 1984, playing guitar and singing on the speed metal band's first four albums. He left in early 1989, however, and founded Gamma Ray with vocalist Ralf Scheepers (formerly with Tyran Pace). The duo intended to record a one-off project that Hansen originated while in Helloween, so they recruited bassist Uwe Wessel, drummer Matthias Burchardt, and several other musicians. The album, Heading for Tomorrow, was released in 1990 and proved a hit with fans and critics, so much so that Hansen, Scheepers, and Wessel decided to tour the album with added members Dirk Schlacter (guitar) and Uli Kusch (drums). During the tour the Heaven Can Wait EP was released. By 1991, Gamma Ray produced another album of new material, entitled Sigh No More. Following 1993's Insanity & Genius, vocalist Scheepers departed to try out for Judas Priest; he didn't get the gig, but opted to form a new band called Primal Fear rather than return to the fold, leaving Hansen to take over vocal duties on 1995's Land of the Free. Further recordings with Hansen as lead vocalist followed, including 1997's Somewhere Out in Space, 1998's Valley of the Kings, and 1999's Power Plant. Blast from the Past was released in 2000. Gamma Ray returned to a raging New Wave of British Heavy Metal style for 2001's No World Order, and followed that album with the live set Skeleton in the Closet. Gamma Ray returned in 2005 with Majestic, the release of which was accompanied by a world tour. In 2007, Gamma Ray released Land of the Free II (the sequel to 1995's Land of the Free), and went on tour with Helloween to promote the album. Three years later, the band released its tenth full-length album, To the Metal!

Gamma Ray - 6 Remastered Albums (1990 - 1999) [Victor, Noise] Re-up

Биография Gamma Ray

Gamma Ray — немецкая метал-группа, созданная в 1988 году Каем Хансеном, бывшим гитаристом и вокалистом группы Helloween.

История

В 1988, после четырёх лет в Helloween, гитарист и автор песен Кай Хансен решил покинуть группу, по причинам, которые все ещё являются предметом для споров. Хансен утверждал, что Helloween стал слишком велик, чтобы он мог продолжать быть участником коллектива, хотя финансовые проблемы группы и сложности в отношениях с записывающей компанией скорее всего также послужили причиной. После этого он немного поучаствовал в студийной работе с Blind Guardian, но в итоге решил создать свой собственный проект вместе со своим старым другом Ральфом Шеперсом (Ralph Scheepers) из группы Tyran Pace. Этот проект уже можно было назвать группой лишь после прихода Уве Весселя (Uwe Wessel) (бас) и Матиаса Бурхарда (Mathias Burchard) (ударные). Так произошло рождение Gamma Ray, коллектива по звучанию достаточно близкого к стилю бывшей группы Хансена, Helloween.

Именно в таком составе был издан альбом Heading for Tomorrow в феврале 1990, и позже в этом же году Heaven Can Wait EP с новым гитаристом Дирком Шлехтером (Dirk Schlächter) и новым барабанщиком Ули Кушем (Uli Kusch).

В феврале 1991 группа репетировала для записи второго альбома в маленьком загородном домике, находящемся в Дании. С несколькими новыми песнями в запасе Gamma Ray вошли в студию, принадлежащую продюсеру Томми Ньютону (Tommy Newton). Он успешно осуществил свою работу на альбоме, названном Sigh No More, который был издан в сентябре 1991. Стиль довольно сильно отличается от стиля первого альбома, а лирика очень депрессивна, причиной этому послужила война в Персидском заливе, которая шла в это время. После выхода альбома группа осуществила 50-дневный мировой тур.

После японского тура в 1992, группу решили покинуть Ули Куш и Уве Вессель из-за внутренних разногласий, которые были заменены молодыми музыкантами из малоизвестной группы Anesthesia, Яном Рубахом (Jan Rubach) (бас) и Томасом Наком (Thomas Nack) (ударные). После этого группа занялась строительством собственной студии, что потребовало много времени, поэтому они не начинали запись до начала 1993. Альбом названный Insanity and Genius был издан лишь в июне 1993. Стиль альбома снова приблизился к Heading for Tomorrow, в этой записи Кай снова принялся за написанние взрывного спид-метала. Insanity and Genius был сыгран вживую на так называемых Melodic Metal strikes back фестивалях, полностью во всех 4 шоу с участием Helicon, Conception, Rage и Gamma Ray как совместных хэдлайнеров. Второе live видео названное Lust for Live, было снято на концерте в Гамбурге, который также был также издан как live CD под названием The Power of Metal в декабре.

Самые крупные изменения в составе ещё только предстояли. Как только были разработаны планы для четвёртого альбома группы, Хансен и Шлехтер были удручены тем фактом, что Шеперс живёт слишком далеко от Гамбурга. Это означало, что они могли проводить репетиции только в выходные, именно этот факт стал причиной задержки записи. С тех пор как Шеперс был прослушан для работы вокалистом в знаменитой группе Judas Priest, и его шансы были оценены достаточно хорошо, Хансен спросил его, действительно ли он думает, что оставаться в Gamma Ray будет правильным решением. Вдвоём они решили, что лучше будет, если Шеперс покинет группу, и без особых разногласий с обеих сторон Шеперс оставил Gamma Ray. После этого Хансен начал поиски нового вокалиста, но по просьбам друзей и фэнов взял и вокальные, и гитарные обязанности на себя, как сделал это на двух первых альбомах Helloween.

В 1995 был издан четвёртый альбом Land of the Free, первый альбом, где Хансен выступил в роли вокалиста. Приглашёнными вокалистами были Ханси Кюрш из Blind Guardian и Михаэль Киске (ex-Helloween). Критики всего мира были довольны. Последующий тур, Men on a Tour, послужил причиной к записи и выпуску живого альбома Alive ‘95 в 1996.
Дан Циммерман

Вскоре, оба Хансен и Шлехтер решили, что нужно снова изменить состав. Группу покинули Ян Рубах и Томас Нэк (оба вернулись в свой прежний коллектив, Anesthesia), пришёл новый барабанщик Дан Циммерман (Dan Zimmerman), также барабанщик группы Freedom Call. Шлехтер решил, что перестанет играть на гитаре и примет на себя обязанности бас-гитариста, так как именно на бас-гитаре он учился играть изначально (это можно видеть на более раннем видео Heading for the East, когда он и Вессель поменялись инструментами на несколько песен, и Шлехтер исполнеяет соло на басу в одном месте). Хеньо Рихтер пришёл в Gamma Ray, чтобы занять место второго гитариста. Конечный и все ещё не изменившийся состав Gamma Ray был сформирован.

Началась работа по созданию следующего полноформатного альбома, и в 1997 был выпущен Somewhere Out In Space, лирика которого была основана на романтике космоса и межзвездных путешествий. После двух лет туров вышел альбом Powerplant, который был продолжением Somewhere Out In Space в лирическом плане, но довольно сильно отличался в музыкальном плане. Альбом был высоко оценен во всём мире.

Пришло время для создания сборника лучших песен, но Хансен решил сделать это немного по другому: он позволил фэнам выбрать голосованием на их сайте три лучшие песни на каждом из альбомов, а затем группа вновь вернулась в студию, чтобы перезаписать достаточно старые песни с первых трёх альбомах и сделать изменённые версии для песен выпущенных позже. Этот двойной альбом был назван Blast from the Past.

После перерыва в один год, в котором Хансен сконцентрировался на его сайд-проекте Iron Savior, группа была готова для записи и выпуска следующего альбома No World Order!, альбом содержал много тяжелых риффов похожих на классические группы 80-х, такие как Iron Maiden и Judas Priest, как и было обещано. И снова альбом был высоко оценен. На туре в поддержку альбома группа посетила очень много стран Европы и отыграла несколько концертов в Японии. После небольшего перерыва, Gamma Ray отправились на тур под названием Skeletons in the Closet. В этом туре участники группы исполняли песни, которые они никогда или очень редко играли до этого. Опять же список песен был выбран фэнами на сайте группы. Всего лишь несколько шоу было сыграно, но два из них были скомпонованы в живой альбом Skeletons in the Closet, их лучший живой альбом на сегодняшний день.

23 сентября 2005 года был выпущен студийный альбом Gamma Ray Majestic.

Live DVD, названный «Hell Yeah - The Awesome Foursome (And The Finnish Keyboarder Who Didn’t Want To Wear His Donald Duck Costume) Live in Montreal», был записан 6 мая 2006 в Монреале.

В последние годы Gamma Ray используют сессионных клавишников для туров, чтобы полностью передать собственное звучание в живой обстановке. Аксель Макенротт (Axel Mackenrott) из Masterplan выполнял эти задачи ранее, теперь эту роль выполняет Эро Каукомиес (Eero Kaukomies) из Финляндии, который игрет в Gamma Ray tribute группе. Его согруппник гитарист Каспери Хейккинен (Kasperi Heikkinen), также играл в части тура Majestic в 2006 по причине травмы Хеньо Рихтера (Henjo Richter)

Последний студийный альбом Gamma Ray Land Of The Free Part II был выпущен 16 ноября 2007 в Германии, 19 ноября в Европе, 21 ноября в Японии и 15 января 2008 в Северной Америке.

В ноябре 2007 года Gamma Ray совмествно с Helloween и Axxis отправились в мировое турнэ Hellish Rock 2007/2008. Хедлайнером тура является группа Helloween. Gamma Ray назван «особым гостем» тура (англ very special guest) и, также как и Axxis, играет не на всех выступлениях. Тур знаменателен тем, что в конце выступления состав Gamma Ray (за исключением ударника) присоединяется к Helloween чтобы вместе исполнить ранние хиты Helloween, со-автором которых был Кай, - «Future World» и «I Want Out»
