Our march through the Helloween discography continues with the band's 1998 release, Better Than Raw. By this point, the lineup of Andi Deris, Michael Weikath, Roland Grapow, Markus Grosskopf, and Uli Kusch was firing on all cylinders, showcasing a level of cohesiveness not heard since the Keeper of the Seven Keys era. With Uli also stepping forward as a songwriter and contributing several standout tracks, Better Than Raw featured some of the strongest material of Helloween's career.
