Kai Hansen formed Helloween in 1984, playing guitar and vocalizing on the speed-metal band's first base quartet albums. He left hand in early 1989, however, and founded Gamma Ray with vocaliser Ralf Scheepers (erstwhile with Tyran Pace). The duo intended to record a one-off project that Hansen originated patch in Helloween, so they recruited bassist Uwe Wessel, drummer Matthias Burchardt and various other musicians. The album, Head for Tomorrow, was released in 1990 and proven a hit with fans and critics, so very much so that Hansen, Scheepers and Wessel decided to circuit the record album with added members Dirk Schlacter (guitar) and Uli Kusch (drums). During the turn the Heaven Can Wait EP was released. By 1991, Gamma Ray produced some other album of new material, entitled Sigh No More. Following 1993's Insanity and Genius, vocaliser Scheepers gone to try out for Judas Priest; he didn't fix the gig, merely opted to shape a new band called Primal Fear rather than rejoin to the bend, departure Hansen to exact over vocal duties on 1995's Land of the Free. Further recordings with Hansen as atomic number 82 vocalist followed, including 1997's Somewhere Out in Space, 1998's Valley of the Kings, and 1999's Power Plant. Crucify from the Past was released in 2000. Gamma Ray returned to a raging New Wave of British Heavy Metal style for 2001's No World Order, and followed that album with the live limit Skeleton in the Closet. Gamma Ray returned in 2005 with Majestic, the button of which was attended by a reality tour.
