HELLOWEEN have launched a new official website to coincide with the release of their new album, Gambling With The Devil. Go to this location to check it out.

In addition, the band has issued the following update:

"The Official Helloween Fanclub in the traditional form with a printed newsletter will be closed soon. Trying to make fans all over the world happy, snail mail and it’s long delivering times simply did not lead to satisfying results anymore.

We are considering to move the Fanclub to a members only section on the band’s Homepage. This special premium section for registered Fanclub members could offer different attractions such as rare downloads, exclusive pictures, short mpeg movies directly from the studio, or delivering you impressions from the band being on the road. Further, we plan to offer exclusive Fanclub-T-shirts, possible meet & greets with the band at concerts as well as reduced prices on merchandise and concert tickets.

Now it’s up to you, the Helloween-fans!

Please let us know your opinion and suggestions on this subject. Visit the Fanclub page to send your comments to our opinion poll."
