Born With A Hammer

Kai Hansen is one of the true architects of power metal. As a founding member of Helloween, he helped define a sound that became a cornerstone of the genre: fast, melodic, energetic and full of character. With Gamma Ray, he carried that spirit further and shaped a catalogue that continues to influence heavy music today. Following 'XXX - Three Decades in Metal', his 2016 solo project celebrating three decades of metal history, Hansen now returns with 'Born with a Hammer', his first proper solo album in nearly a decade. Riding the momentum of Helloween's hugely successful comeback and world tour, the album captures Kai Hansen's full musical DNA: raw, melodic, rebellious, anthemic and unmistakably authentic.
