"The Book of Souls" - Official pre-release thread (CONTAINS ALBUM SPOILERS)

[Travis The Dragon]

The production on EVERY Maiden album sounds perfectly fine to my ears and I think every reunion album is super amazing and ranks up there with the very best of the 80's stuff.

However another week is ongoing and still we do not even have an official confirmation about the single. It has been a damn month.

THE LEAK!!!

Spoiler

So is your plan to come on here every day and complain about the "lack" of news every day until the album comes out?

EXACTLY.IT IS LIKE SWEARING IN THE CAR. YOU LET IT OUT OF YOUR SYSTEM AND NO ONE IS HARMED

 

[Night Prowler]

Are we there yet?

 

[Bombusbombus]

I want ice cream!

 

[Arbiex]

Is it just me or is this is the best promotion of a new album ever? They announce the album 78 days before the release and then there was silence... A true hit and run

 

[Maturin]

It was mentioned the announcement could have been hurried up by the leak on Amazon.

Maybe, but probably this leak forced them to make the announcement a couple of days earlier than planned. I don't think they would give amazon the info about the new album a month before they were going to officialy announce it.

 

[UpTheIrons]

Well we're all talking about it so they must be doing something right.

 

[Gk1]

I just broke up so this is the best I can do. Chat with no reason,having no arguments @all

That XL shirt is stereotyping at it's finest.

 

[Travis The Dragon]

Well, I made it 25 days since the album announcement and time went by pretty fast actually so the next 31 days to Speed Of Light won't be so bad.

 

[The Flash]

It's been almost a month already? Damn time flies.

 

[Travis The Dragon]

Oh, if anyone knows of places besides Amazon and iTunes who have the album and also have audio samples for other albums, can you please post links? I remember for AMOLAD, there was a site that released samples early. I'll bookmark all the links and check every day for samples. Here is one from Japan: http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/product/WPCR-16750

I love the description of the album on that website.

Iron Maiden brings an album

Well they're not wrong.

 

[SinisterMinisterX]

There's something they're not telling us. Look at the difference in length for the Japanese description.

 

[blindg3]

They should have a song called "The longest summer"

I fit both the stereotype and the shirt
