Commented Michael Kiske: "I did sing parts in one song, and another one in whole. 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 started out as a HELLOWEEN tribute band before recording a four-song demo of original material, "Like Donald Duck", which received positive reactions. A deal with Valery Records followed and the band released its debut album, "Evil Needs Candy Too", in 2006.
