Tbh, I don't think Steve is lying when he said there's nothing recorded yet or plans. They've had plenty of time to record since 2019 (and certainly written and demoed ideas), he works on his songs alone, but they have their own habits for writing and recording, especially for the last 2 albums...

Good call. I wonder if the reasons for doing a 3rd leg twice before were just to change a couple of songs (they didn't for the first 2 legs). We know that in 2014 they wanted to take a break and ME tour wasn't originally planned (so they weren't sure what to do), but the planned 3rd leg of LOTB...

So heavy would be really atypical and odd for Maiden, but it definitely fits TXF. Like Sign Of The Cross live in RIR. A 90's album with a similar heavier sound would have been a statement from Maiden, especially after the 80's, but they didn't do it with their first 90's albums (they went more...

I doubt it, but who knows with these teasing (and odd, really) comments. I guess a potential 3rd leg could be very short, like in 2014. Sun And Steel has an advantage because of the beer. :p Nicko would love it. By the way, Bruce had Gangland as an intro during his Spoken tour, just saying...

Happy Birthday @Magnus and Happy Belated Birthdays @WildRanger @Austrogoth @permanenteddie :hbd:

I listened to the album earlier toady and while I really like it overall (a lot, a special album, love most of the ideas) and could listen to it regularly, I think it perfectly illustrates why I prefer Steve as a songwriter, if I have to choose. Love both ofc. I think repetition in metal is like...

Could these (curious and) recent comments from Bruce be hints at a new album in 2027 or in general after the tour? 1)''we’re busy next year with other things, obviously Maiden things and everything, which is great''... 2)speaking about Maiden's current tour, he said there's a nice window open...

Yngwie Malmsteen - Hangar 18, Area 51 I just love the melodic riff! The song sounds like one of his classics from the 80's, with some power metal vocal ideas. :rocker:

Wasn't Bruce sick at that show? Similar to TBOS release (originally it was planned to be released in early 2015, recorded in 2014, but I can't see an early release by Maiden again now... habits, so September after a tour is always likely) and tour and what they would have done in 2020. Odd...

Hmm, speaking about Maiden's current tour, he said there's a nice window open for 2027 because they are going to be busy in 2026. How to interpret that? More from the interview:

Yeah. Bruce's solo writing is different and more productive than Maiden's. I'm just surprised because the material is brand new. I guess he just choose the strongest ideas for him. As if the others haven't been worked on at all, so many demos. Unlike Maiden, I guess. Can you share the...

Expected about the SA dates. 3rd leg again? What? Please no. 3rd leg with some minor changes (so unnecessary, but a fitting option for Asia and Oceania, option #2 too), 3rd leg with a debut of a new single (like they could have done in 2020?; release the new album in the fall in 2027 after the...

Agreed. But the dominant longer material that is not balanced enough started in 2006, although I have no problem with AMOLAD. Which could be said even for the Blaze albums. And a different sequence, I guess. BNW and DOD are probably the standard from the Reunion era. As I said before, the last...

https://themusicuniverse.com/bruce-dickinson-working-on-new-album-says-iron-maiden-isnt-interested-in-sphere-residency/ New interview (not full), some new info. The band is incredible. I mean, they’re on fire. I mean, so we are gonna do a new album. We are recording the new album, rather in...

It's great to have live albums from Blaze's vocal prime (2003-2008), right after Maiden. And they all sound really good with great performances from all. There are about 6 or 7 different Maiden songs in total from his albums (iirc) in the 3 live albums up until 2010 (no Clansman!?), I would have...
