    Senjutsu - 20 Months Later

    First listen to Senjutsu left me disappointed. The title tracks was good but I gave up after the Time Machine, it just didn't get me excited like BNW, AMOL&D and FF did. Later I remembered the days when 'heavier' albums needed to be "got into" before it clicked i.e. listen 3-4 times until...

    Which Iron Maiden album does have the biggest number of filler songs to it?

    I'll go with FOD too. I think it was made when Bruce was pretty much wiped out and, probably didn't have much to contribute re: songs. I like Dance of Death, don't love it but do like it. I'm listening to AMOLAD right now and I do think it's their best album since Brave New World, they've not...

    I've always loved how Maiden seem like a family. Yes they have rows but there is something about that group of lads that I've never seen in other bands, not The Beatles, Zeppelin, Beach Boys to name some. Perhaps AC/DC could be up there too as they've always bonded. Maiden just seem to be so...

    That's a very good point. Adrian's written some great Maiden songs.

    Iron Maiden News, Links, and Interviews

    Apologies if this is the wrong thread to post this but I'm not able to start a new thread yet. Classic Rock & Metal Hammer have recently released the 3rd edition of their Maiden special. I bought the 2nd Edition and thought it was really well done - great pictures and great input from band...

    Is it worth joining the fanclub?

    Never been to a Maiden gig, can't stand for 3 hours. Was thinking how good must be for fans to get a FTTB win. Then I thought that you're crushed against the barrier for a few hours. Now, if you've had a few pints before hand, what do you do when nature calls? Down your leg? In a bottle? Serious...

    Senjutsu - 3rd September 2021

    When I first heard Senjutsu I was disappointed. Nothing jumped out except Senjutsu. Didn't play it again for a few weeks then I had a listen on Apple Music, still no good. Then I remembered that back in the 70's most progressive rock albums took time to 'get into'. Listening again and again...

    Is it worth joining the fanclub?

    I joined in the late 90's. Amongst other things you got a card signed by all members of the band, except Bruce or Adrian of course. It was still great to have. I see they don't include or offer that any more. Shame. I guess it's due to the sheer number of members these days and fair play to the...

    Sabaton

    Been into Sabaton for about 3 years. The amount of creativity and work that goes into their videos is astounding. They got me listening to power metal in general and although I know I'm not sure about who is heavy mental and who is power metal, I hroup bands according to a best guess. Bands that...

    I have a dodgy hip, dodgy knee, dodgy back, dodgy shoulder and fecking peripheral neuropathy. I can't play my VR games without going A over T and Manchester United are making me suicidal at the moment. Still, mustn't grumble. :)

    NOW WATCHING

    Started watching Boardwalk Empire and then have Gommorah cued up. Late to the party but at least I know my time will definitely not be wasted. Shout out for Braquo. One of the best crime shows I've seen. It's French with sub-titles.

    THE CRUSADE OF EPICS: Results -> A Change Of Seasons wins!

    Metallica. One of the most intense videos I've ever seen and one of Metallica's best songs.
