Vagabond Bones is a CD to be released by heavy metal band Helix on November 17 2009.[1] It is Helix' 12th full length studio album and 21st album released overall. It contains performances from members of the 80's Helix lineup: Brent Doerner, Daryl Gray, and Greg Hinz, as well as former member and co-producer Sean Kelly. Kelly departed Helix during the production of Vagabond Bones, prompting the reunion of the 80's band. Kelly remained on hand to finish the record before leaving to tour with Nelly Furtado.
Although the release date was set for November 17, 2009, a CD release party was held on October 24, 2009. Customers who pre-ordered the CD from the Helix website began to receive the album as early as the last week of October.
