Trick Or Treat's official MySpace page is streaming the song 'Paper Dragon'.

Former HELLOWEEN singer Michael Kiske sings on two tracks: 'Hello Moon' and a part of 'Tears Against Your Smile'. Michele Luppi (ex-VISION DIVINE) sings on 'Take Your Chance'.

Valery Records' YouTube Channel has posted the song 'Tears Against Your Smile' with Kiske on vocals.

Michael Kiske commented about the album: "What I really liked about them is, that they seem to enjoy what they are doing. In German we call it: 'Spielfreude'; that's always very uplifting and fresh. No matter how naive the lyrics sometimes may be, as long as a band really is excited about their music, I get a kick out of it. And they seem to be in in with all their heart."

Trick Or Treat's Luca Cabri (guitarist) and Alessandro Conti (vocalist) add:

Luca Cabri: "Having played Helloween covers for a couple of years and having listened to their songs during all our lifetime, naturally our songs were influenced by the Helloween style... However, our intention is that of writing always what cross our minds without strictly following the power metal clichè. In the musical field in general, a band should not linger on a particular genre, but it should always experience different kind of music and extend its horizons."

Alessandro Conti: "Personally I think that having Michael in our album is a goal that goes beyond the commercial aspect of the cooperation... I began my singing studies immediately after the listening of the 'Keepers' albums... It was more than 10 years ago, but maybe if I hadn’t listened to his voice, I would have never started to sing!"
