Lead singer of HELIX, Brian Vollmer is a living legend!
For over 30 years Brian Vollmer of HELIX has been rocking you and loving it!
With 5 gold and 2 platinum albums under their belt and millions of records sold around the world, we see HELIX release their 15th studio album this year, "Vegabond Bones "
Canadian hard rockers HELIX will release their new album, "Vagabond Bones", on November 17 via Perris Records in the U.S. and through
Universal/Fontana in Canada. Singer Brian Vollmer has been collaborating with Sean Kelly (CRASH KELLY) on material for the CD, which was mixed by engineer Aaron Murray.
Two songs from the album — "Vagabond Bones" and "Hung Over But Still Hanging In" — are available for streaming in the YouTube clips below. Vollmer says, "The soundtrack for 'Hung Over' [in the YouTube clip below] is not the finished master track. The mastered version is the one that has Russ 'Killer Dwarf' Russell singing a duet with me on the track."

01. The Animal Inside (Won't Be Denied)
02. Go Hard or Go Home

The classic '80s lineup of HELIX — Brent "The Doctor" Doerner on lead guitar, Greg "Fritz" Hinz on drums, Daryl Gray on bass, and Brian Vollmer on vocals — recently reunited and is planning to hit the road throughout western Canada in November. Vollmer says, "We have dates coming up in the Canadian Maritimes (Moncton, Frederiction, Barrington, Chester) that fall the day after the official [CD] release date. We'll probably test drive a few of the new tunes while we're out there, as well as getting to know each other on the road again. After all, before our last two dates, the four of us haven't played together since the early '90s. This, coupled with more dates back in Ontario in December, will warm us up for next summer's festivals."
HELIX has been active in the past several years with several releases. The band's most recent collection of original material, "The Power of Rock and Roll", came out in 2007. Their latest CD, "A Heavy Mental Christmas", was made available in all Canadian Wal-Mart stores last November and received airplay worldwide. The CD also received great reviews from the critics.

This mamma’s Tigress babies were born pre-mature and died soon after birth. She wanted her cubs so badly that she wouldn’t eat and soon fell ill. The zoo couldn’t find any tiger cubs for her to adopt, so they thought they would try dressing up some piglet babies and put them in her area to see if it would help heal her heart.. It did.
My Dear HELIX, I want you to know that your music and your songs are my passion. I am addicted to HELIX. There is something that pulls me towards them. Keep it up HELIX. Do PS:Follow Me Twitter at http://twitter.com/iaent
