GAMMA RAY 'Rise' - Official Remastered Video
This video was filmed in Hamburg at Hammer Studio which was like a second home (or first?) for all Gamma Ray members.
This video session took place only a few days after the band finished the mixes of the studio album 'To The Metal!'.
Sadly, the studio does not exist anymore, it burned down in a scary firestorm during the recordings of the follow-up album 'Empire of The Undead’ as shown and discussed in the Bonus DVD that was bundled to that album (which we might share in part on this channel in the future – should we?).
There are very grounded reasons to think that the delivery of the mixes at the 11th hour, as well as the filming of this videos just one second before the bonus DVD was supposed to go to print have inspired the song 'Master Of Confusion'. But that´s another story! For no...

NASA | What Are Gamma Rays?
What we call "light" is actually just a tiny fraction of the broad range of radiation on the electromagnetic radiation spectrum. The entire span stretches from very-low-energy radio waves through microwaves, infrared light, visible light, ultraviolet light, X rays, and finally to very-high-energy gamma rays. The processes producing photons (single particles of electromagnetic radiation) of each type of radiation differ, as do their energy, but all of the different forms of radiation are still just part of the electromagnetic spectrum's family. The only real difference between a gamma-ray photon and a visible-light photon is the energy. Gamma rays can have over a billion times the energy of the type of light visible to our eyes. They are produced by the hottest and most energetic objects in...

Gamma Ray have become their own trademark and have long been synonymous with a (metal) cosmos full of surprises -- which may be one of the reasons why their many fans were not overly astonished when Spring 2011 saw the four musicians embark on a club tour through Germany and Switzerland, transferring the concept of their exceptional EP "Skeletons & Majesties" in an extended version to the stage. The band's aficionados know that Gamma Ray are guaranteed to deliver yet another full frontal assault on the senses.
"Skeletons & Majesties Live" has a playing time of two hours and is a tour de force through the band's history so far, including lots of hits and classics, but also tracks which ...

Gamma Ray - Skeletons & Majesties - 04 Wings Of Destiny (Live)
Relive Gamma Ray's spectacular show "Skeletons & Majesties", recorded in Pratteln (CH) during the band's 2011 European tour!
Gamma Ray – with no doubt one of the most important contemporary names of classic heavy metal and THE most respected and influential German band in the genre.
Founded and fronted by Kai Hansen after his departure from Helloween, Gamma Ray became one of the most prominent bands in the European heavy metal scene. Along with the likes of Helloween, Blind Guardian, Primal Fear and Running Wild, Gamma Ray forms the core of the European power metal movement. With the 1995 concept album “Land Of The Free”, Gamma Ray became internationally-known, touring with bands like Iron Maiden, Hammerfall and Stratovarius all over the place.

GAMMA RAY from Hamburg, Germany, have delivered impressive statements of their own musical philosophy to the worldwide heavy metal community for more than thirty years by now. Founded and fronted by Kai Hansen after his departure from the famous German power metal band Helloween, GAMMA RAY recorded eleven studio albums between 1989 and 2015. Besides Dirk Schlächter (bass), Henjo Richter (guitar), Michael Ehré (drums) and Frank Beck (vocals), Hansen is the band’s lead vocalist, guitarist and chief songwriter.
The expressive power of the band’s music is reflected in their energetic live shows. There’s hardly a renowned metal festival where GAMMA RAY haven’t rocked the crowds, hardly an international magazine which hasn’t featured at least one GAMMA RAY title story.
On the band’s upcoming live album called “30 YEARS LIVE ANNIVERSARY”, GAMMA RAY would like to invite all of you to join once more the party of their exclusive and only show in 2020. In this time of Covid-19, the band was not able to play shows like they wanted to, so they decided to do a Live Streaming Event and set up a big stage in the ISS Dome in Düsseldorf, Germany. This awesome event took place on Thursday, August 27th and was streamed to all fans all over the globe.
Several cameras had recorded the very best of power metal with guest keyboard player Corvin Bahn & former (and first!!) GAMMA RAY singer Ralf Scheepers as a very special guest! Due to Covid, this concert – as you can imagine – took place without an audience. This is why GAMMA RAY decided to invite the fans to send in recordings of screaming, hailing and whistling to their favourite GAMMA RAY songs, which will be added to the end of the show and gives fans the chance to participate on this release!
“30 YEARS LIVE ANNIVERSARY” is available as 2-CD Digipak + DVD, as 3xLP on black vinyl (+ Blu-ray in some countries), and digital. Furthermore, a limited edition 3xLP on coloured vinyl (+ Blu-ray) is available. Each of the three LPs is pressed on a different vinyl colour.

This video was filmed in Hamburg at Hammer Studio which was like a second home (or first?) for all Gamma Ray members.
This video session took place only a few days after the band finished the mixes of the studio album 'To The Metal!'.
Sadly, the studio does not exist anymore, it burned down in a scary firestorm during the recordings of the follow-up album 'Empire of The Undead’ as shown and discussed in the Bonus DVD that was bundled to that album (which we might share in part on this channel in the future – should we?).
There are very grounded reasons to think that the delivery of the mixes at the 11th hour, as well as the filming of this videos just one second before the bonus DVD was supposed to go to print have inspired the song 'Master Of Confusion'. But that´s another story! For now please enjoy this remastered video and, if you like it, leave a comment below.

What we call "light" is actually just a tiny fraction of the broad range of radiation on the electromagnetic radiation spectrum. The entire span stretches from very-low-energy radio waves through microwaves, infrared light, visible light, ultraviolet light, X rays, and finally to very-high-energy gamma rays. The processes producing photons (single particles of electromagnetic radiation) of each type of radiation differ, as do their energy, but all of the different forms of radiation are still just part of the electromagnetic spectrum's family. The only real difference between a gamma-ray photon and a visible-light photon is the energy. Gamma rays can have over a billion times the energy of the type of light visible to our eyes. They are produced by the hottest and most energetic objects in the universe, such as neutron stars and pulsars, supernova explosions, and regions around black holes. On Earth, gamma rays are generated by nuclear explosions, lightning, and the less dramatic activity of radioactive decay.
In fact, gamma rays are so energetic that they are harmful to life on Earth. Luckily, Earth's atmosphere absorbs gamma rays, preventing them from affecting life on the ground. But this poses a problem if you want to observe the Universe in gamma-ray light. The very atmosphere that protects us from gamma rays prevents us from directly observing them from the ground. Astronomical observations of gamma-ray sources are therefore done with high-altitude balloons or satellites, above the protective blanket of Earth's atmosphere.
The high energy of gamma rays poses another problem: they can pass right through any lens or mirror, making it very difficult to focus them in a telescope. Astronomical observations, therefore, must rely on a different technology to view the gamma-ray universe. Scientists must make use of methods developed by particle physicists, who have long understood techniques for measuring high-energy particles. The Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope's specialized astronomical instruments employ detectors used and perfected by physicists interested in the interactions of subatomic particles.

On September 10, This extraordinary show was released as a double live album on both audio and video via earMUSIC.
The fifth single taken from “30 YEARS LIVE ANNIVERSARY”, “Send Me A Sign”, is now available.
*********
GAMMA RAY from Hamburg, Germany, have delivered impressive statements of their own musical philosophy to the worldwide heavy metal community for more than thirty years by now. Founded and fronted by Kai Hansen after his departure from the famous German power metal band Helloween, GAMMA RAY recorded eleven studio albums between 1989 and 2015. Besides Dirk Schlächter (bass), Henjo Richter (guitar), Michael Ehré (drums) and Frank Beck (vocals), Hansen is the band’s lead vocalist, guitarist and chief songwriter.
The expressive power of the band’s music is reflected in their energetic live shows. There’s hardly a renowned metal festival where GAMMA RAY haven’t rocked the crowds, hardly an international magazine which hasn’t featured at least one GAMMA RAY title story.
On the band’s upcoming live album called “30 YEARS LIVE ANNIVERSARY”, GAMMA RAY would like to invite all of you to join once more the party of their exclusive and only show in 2020. In this time of Covid-19, the band was not able to play shows like they wanted to, so they decided to do a Live Streaming Event and set up a big stage in the ISS Dome in Düsseldorf, Germany. This awesome event took place on Thursday, August 27th and was streamed to all fans all over the globe.
Several cameras had recorded the very best of power metal with guest keyboard player Corvin Bahn & former (and first!!) GAMMA RAY singer Ralf Scheepers as a very special guest! Due to Covid, this concert – as you can imagine – took place without an audience. This is why GAMMA RAY decided to invite the fans to send in recordings of screaming, hailing and whistling to their favourite GAMMA RAY songs, which will be added to the end of the show and gives fans the chance to participate on this release!
“30 YEARS LIVE ANNIVERSARY” is available as 2-CD Digipak + DVD, as 3xLP on black vinyl (+ Blu-ray in some countries), and digital. Furthermore, a limited edition 3xLP on coloured vinyl (+ Blu-ray) is available. Each of the three LPs is pressed on a different vinyl colour.

Gamma Ray have become their own trademark and have long been synonymous with a (metal) cosmos full of surprises -- which may be one of the reasons why their many fans were not overly astonished when Spring 2011 saw the four musicians embark on a club tour through Germany and Switzerland, transferring the concept of their exceptional EP "Skeletons & Majesties" in an extended version to the stage. The band's aficionados know that Gamma Ray are guaranteed to deliver yet another full frontal assault on the senses.
"Skeletons & Majesties Live" has a playing time of two hours and is a tour de force through the band's history so far, including lots of hits and classics, but also tracks which were undeservedly under-represented to date.
"The EP, Skeletons & Majesties, is practically a continuation of our 'Skeletons In The Closet' concept, in other words: new versions of songs which didn't receive the attention they deserve, as well as unplugged versions of some of our classics," says Kai Hansen, the band's vocalist, guitarist and founder.
In terms of "Skeletons & Majesties Live", this means a thoroughly haunting show, from the dynamic openers 'Anywhere In The Galaxy' and 'Men, Martians And Machines' to the furioso finale, 'Future World'.
The double CD includes a total of 18 songs (plus intro & interlude); DVD and Blu-ray will feature six additional bonus tracks with alternative versions of 'The Spirit,' 'Wings Of Destiny,' 'Farewell,' 'Gamma Ray,' 'Time To Break Free' and 'Insurrection,' all recorded at another show at the Zeche in Bochum, the day before the Pratteln show . In addition, the DVD and Blu-ray feature tons of behind the scenes bonus material, very rare archive material and interviews with the band.
The release of "Skeletons & Majesties Live" will mark the beginning of an eventful 2013 for Gamma Ray: After Hansen stayed true to his word and spent 2012 concentrating mainly on his second band, Unisonic, he and his three colleagues Henjo Richter (guitar), Dirk Schlächter (bass) and new addition Michael Ehré (the Firewind/Love.Might.Kill drummer has replaced Daniel Zimmermann, who left the Gamma Ray fold on friendly terms in January 2011) are now focusing exclusively on Gamma Ray again. A co-headlining tour with Helloween has been scheduled for February 2013 and will also mark the arrival of a new Gamma Ray studio recording.
"Gammy Ray will have top priority in 2013," comments Hansen, "and 'Skeletons & Majesties Live' is the perfect harbinger of this!"

Relive Gamma Ray's spectacular show "Skeletons & Majesties", recorded in Pratteln (CH) during the band's 2011 European tour!
Gamma Ray – with no doubt one of the most important contemporary names of classic heavy metal and THE most respected and influential German band in the genre.
Founded and fronted by Kai Hansen after his departure from Helloween, Gamma Ray became one of the most prominent bands in the European heavy metal scene. Along with the likes of Helloween, Blind Guardian, Primal Fear and Running Wild, Gamma Ray forms the core of the European power metal movement. With the 1995 concept album “Land Of The Free”, Gamma Ray became internationally-known, touring with bands like Iron Maiden, Hammerfall and Stratovarius all over the place.
