Scanner to niemiecki zespół wykonujący pocieszny heavy/speed/power metal.
W 1988 wydali płytę Hypertrace - jest to wypełnione klimatem science fiction album w stylu Walls of Jericho Helloween. Wywrzasły wokal podobny do Hansena, dużo ciekawych sól gitarowych i rozległe chóralne refreny które można porównać do tych z Running Wild.
Zespół odcisną spore piętno na polu melodyjnego metalu, bowiem dekadę później powstał Iron Saviour który całymi garściami czerpie z debiutu tej grupy. Również jest nowy zespół o nazwie Traveler który też wzoruje się na bohaterach tematu.
W zeszłym roku na święta kupiłem sobie oryginalne japońskie wydanie.
No to co sądzicie? Znacie, lubicie?
