Theatrical punks Felix Hagan & The Family have released their new single ‘Attention Seeker’. The triumphant pop punk anthem is the title track and opener of the band’s debut album Attention Seeker, out on November 24. Regarding the single Felix Hagan says, “It is the hymn for the eternal show-off, the cry of all those whose life hinges on the approval of others. And I absolutely love it.” ‘Attention Seeker’ follows the release of the extravagant rock ‘n’ roller ‘Hey I Want You’ and the electro-rock stomp of ‘Delirium Tremendous’, all taken from the forthcoming album.

Describing the album, Felix says, “Our signature sound is a very high-energy blend of glam, pop, disco and classic rock, so we will forever owe our style to Queen and Abba. But our defining influence is the world of musical theatre, the idea that songs are there to entertain, and should be as BIG as possible and never ever boring.” He continues, “On this record we massively diversified our stylistic and production palette, and listened to all manner of things like D’Angelo, John Grant and the New York Dolls. We have our usual huge banging crowd pleasers, but we have plenty of more subtle and quieter songs to go with them. There’s something there for everyone.”

From the rock-stomping ‘On The Double’ to the fabulously eccentric likes of ‘Gene Kelly’ and ‘Babe I Ain’t Coming’, Felix Hagan & The Family deliver a range of humour, intrigue and intelligent songwriting in one of the year’s most intriguing and exciting records. Attention Seeker finds Felix Hagan & The Family blending rock, pop and musical theatre into a giant sparkling monster. It’s time to put on your dancing shoes – the glam punks are waiting… 

Earlier this year German Power Metal legends Helloween announced that they would be reuniting with former members Kai Hansen (guitar) and Michael Kiske (vocals) for a World Tour under the banner of “Pumpkins United”. It would mean bringing together the classic line-up of the band that recorded the seminal Keeper Of The Seven Keys Parts 1 & 2 albums (1987/88).

Helloween’s upcoming Pumpkins United World Tour will be nothing short of incredible. The super-tour, with plenty of dates being sold out for a while now, will be witnessed by more than 10,000 fans in Mexico City, 16,000 Brazilians rocking out in São Paulo, 9,000 fans in Santiago de Chile while in Stuttgart there'll be 6,000. In Milan, 8,000 Pumpkinheads eagerly await the arrival of the tour and finally – the ultimate mayhem in Prague with 12,000 tickets sold as well as in Madrid where, believe it or not, 14,000 Spanish Pumpkinheads will gather for this special show.

The news doesn’t stop there. The band, whilst busy in their rehearsal room have also written and recorded an exclusive song together. 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 choruses soaring above all else. The track is also performed by all three singers of the band's history - a dream hardly anyone thought would come true and 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!
