Available with Vinyl records London. New Vinyl Records LP Vinyl Kai Hansen “Born in the city of Hamburg, in 1963…”With this simple, yet spot on line, Kai Hansen sets the direction for his solo debut “XXX -Three Decades Of Metal”.Hamburg, it’s the city is where it all started for Hansen, it’s the city that made Kai into one ofthe biggest metal musicians on the planet. Not strictly autobiographical and with a twinkle inits eye, XXX takes you onto a journey of Hansen’s life from the first steps in the practicingspace in his bedroom, to rehearsal rooms and eventually to the biggest stages in the world,ending up influencing and sharing the stage with the very same bands Hansen admired inthe first place – and everything that happened along the way.On “XXX”, Hansen roars into the mic like his life depends on it – like a wild, unleashedbeast – and breaks free with liberating screams. Hansen’s typical rough sound isintermittent by highpitched screams and alternates between a melodic and clear vocal stylewhile still retaining the slight nasal tone and rasp of his early years. Add explosive guitarsolos, heavy riffs and licks as well as powerful tunes to the mix, and you get everything youever searched for in metalhard rock.Or as Hansen puts it “It made me feel so groovy – it gave me instant heat.”The 10 new metal classics on “XXX” came into existence by the hand of AlexDietz Heaven Shall Burn on bass, Eike Freese who already worked as engineer and coproducerwith Hansen on the last Gamma Ray album on guitar and phenomenal drummerDaniel Wilding Carcass – and of course Hansen himself.The four will be joined by various guests, ranging from friends to followers to heroes, suchas Dee Snider, Hansi Kuumlrsch Blind Guardian, Marcus Bischoff Heaven Shall Burn,Tobias Sammet Avantasia, Edguy, Michael Kiske Unisonic, and Michael WeikathHelloween.“XXX” has it all. And with the song “Born Free”, a new metal hymn is born. A hymn that willget fans all over the globe to stand up proud and shout “I am BORN FREE – NO LIMITS INTHE SKY”.
