Singing Style
In comparison to Kai Hansen, Kiske had a more vibrant and clean voice. Some fans and critics have likened his singing style and range to that of Geoff Tate or a young Samson-era Bruce Dickinson, with shades of Rob Halford. He has a tenor type voice and possesses an almost 4 octave vocal range, as he is capable of reaching extremely high notes (B♭5) and low baritone notes (E2) as well. Kiske's time in Helloween has proved to be highly influential, and many singers cite him as a major influence.
