BRUCE DICKINSON On His Next Solo Album: 'We Did 16 Tracks In 21 Days, All 100 Percent Live'

IRON MAIDEN vocalist Bruce Dickinson has revealed that he recorded 16 songs for his new solo album over a three-week period earlier this year. Bruce's next LP, which won't arrive before 2027, will be the follow-up to "The Mandrake Project", which came out in March 2024 via BMG. Dickinson's...

Well...I'm...hmm...please define "live" Bruce. I am entirely skeptical of a completely live album (vocals and all) of new material.
 
Ahh, I just hope the album is properly produced. I think this “live” approach might not benefit the vocals, but on the other hand, it’s still a studio environment - Bruce can rest between takes and even add overdubs. The result remains to be seen - and heard.
 
Not surprising as every Maiden album has been recorded in this fashion since 2000, now Bruce has a complete band he can play with. Some great musicians, will be interesting to hear it in due course.

16 or 18 songs, Bruce? Maybe Steve convinced Maiden to do one again... he will put 9 or 10 songs, not more.

TMP wasn't recorded live in the studio, right? Even if so, the production isn't strong, the drums sound is important. Bruce's vocals will also depend on the takes, but recordings in less than a month probably didn't suggest a lot of takes. Overdubs? I kind of doubt it. The rest of the instruments should sound good, I hope so for the rhythm guitar for the heavy parts, it's really needed for his solo music. BNW (or AMOLAD) is how a ''live in the studio record'' should sound. Something like the MBTP remix (at least for Gods Of War) would be better than TMP mix, I doubt it will sound like Maiden's recent mixes.
