SupaRed is an album by SupaRed, a band led by ex-Helloween vocalist Michael Kiske. It was released on Helloween's former record label Noise Records.

Background[]

Kiske both produced and mixed the album by himself. The album was recorded in Kiskes own studio. It was a songwriting process and then the band members gradually recorded it. The guitars were recorded live at times.

He said in 2003: "Rock music as such is just a band story. With the solo albums I just had a lot to do with myself, had to sort and redefine a lot. At that point it was just fine to do solo records, but rock music is not for solo artists."

Kiske wanted a name that cannot be defined immediately, that has no special meaning, but just sounded good. Translated, it actually means nothing, except strong red.[2]

He also said 2003: "I think it's unfair to compare Supared to Helloween, I know that people will compare it no matter what I think of it. It goes with the territory. You can't really compare the music, because it's an entirely different band."[3]

Sandro Giampietro played guitar on Kiske's solo works Kiske (2006) and "Past In Different Ways" (2008), and was a co-songwriter for Unisonic on the songs "Blood" and "Manhunter" on the album "Light of Dawn" (2014).
