The Dark Ride is the ninth album by the German power metal/heavy metal band Helloween. The singles were "If I Could Fly" and "Mr. Torture". The album's style was quite different than Better Than Raw with a much darker sound and the use of tuned down guitars (which triggered mixed reactions from the fans). The album was produced by renowned figures Roy Z and Charlie Bauerfeind .
