At the end of the 1980s, there must have been many metal fans who were instantly KO'd by \"Galactos,\" the opening song of \"Doomsday News (The New Generation of Heavy Metal),\" a masterpiece compilation album that featured artists such as Rage and Helloween. Their debut album ``Hypertrace'' (1988), which also featured guest appearances by Ralph Scheepers, is a well-known German metal masterpiece. There is a strong impression that Scanner is a band that appeared in the late 80's, but in fact, if you include their predecessors, they started their activities in 1977, making them extremely veteran. Although they have disbanded and reunited several times, they have released six albums so far.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the long-awaited release of his seventh album, his first in nine years.
