Kai Hansen en Michael Kiske samenwerkingsverband:
MetalStorm.ee: I've read that you, Michael Kiske and Kai Hansen are supposed to be getting together to do... to "do" something.
Roland: Yeah we've had a couple of meetings already, and last time Christmas, just after Christmas and we decided now when we have time — writing songs for Michael, so Mike said "I don't want to write songs because it's too far away metal style" so Kai is writing separate first and then me when I am coming back in a couple of months I guess and play the first songs to Mike and see if he likes it.
MetalStorm.ee: So this is going to be a completely separate bands then?
Roland: It's a totally new project it would be first and then if it's successful then we'll see, but then we're planning lots of touring and playing gigs.
MetalStorm.ee: Will this be a predominantly power metal album?
Roland: It will be very tasteful power metal, nothing too drastical or brutal or too stupid fast - I mean many people know about Mickael Kiske's opinions about this but I guess he's a bit more open, definitely, when it's coming from Kai and me — also we will have some double bass, haha, but it will be very melodic from the vocal side because I guess the only strength on his vocals if it's really melodic, like if you have songs like "Eagle Fly Free" from HELLOWEEN, or you know "I Want Out" or "Heroes" from MASTERPLAN, this fits in very nice you know, or the AVANTASIA stuff as well — but his solo stuff is always just one note, he's always holding... [and then impersonates Michael singing and holding just one note] and it's always like a bit boring you know... without criticizing him, he likes this kind of style but I guess his strengths are much more melodic. Like anthems you know, these kinds of melodies you know, like the ballad like the one from HELLOWEEN which was number one in Korea you know [and then sings] "in my heart, in my soul.. da da da-da" — it's not easy to write but you know if you write the stuff with voice and it's quite nice compared to Jørn or Mike DiMeo — I would never write stuff for them like this, it's too pitchy, but with Michael Kiske's voice it sounds really great. I think that is much more important then if it is just a fast double bass track or if it's just aggressive guitar playing, I don't think these are as important any more. The whole concept should be good.
MetalStorm.ee: Do you're going to see how successful this is then and then the possibility of touring...
Roland: Yeah! that's what I said, if we have a good... good... good feelings with this whole thing and we are getting of course a bass player and drummer and then we're recording it and then looking for a record deal — and then if we get a good kind of deal then I guess we will announce already tour dates, and we will also be playing some older HELLOWEEN stuff written from Kai and Kiske and me — and I guess people will have a lot of fun hearing the old HELLOWEEN stuff with the new stuff, and if we make it clever then I think it should fit - but that's the idea we are definitely looking forward. Mike, Mike Kiske has already said of course you could play some shows already, maybe people asking us already if we would just be playing the old stuff of HELLOWEEN but it would be wrong — you should present a new album and then some older stuff, that's it — not like some HELLOWEEN kind of cover band.
