Quick ABA (album-by-album) overview: Gates to Purgatory: this and the following one have little to nothing to do with the rest of their production, lyrics-wise. Best songs probably are the last two: Genghis Khan and Prisoners of Our Time. Branded and Exiled: probably the less interesting of the...

HCW is not in E, it starts in A (intro + main riff 1), modulates to E (main riff 2), the verse is in D Mixolydian ('Can't understand what is happening to me'), then the pre-chorus ('I can't believe that really my time has come') is Bb to C (they raise the chord one step at a time to create...

Might not be the happiest of places, but I was watching the documentary about the 2022 Idaho U murders. Iron Maiden t-shirts appear in ep. 2 (boyfriend of one of the victims is wearing a TNOTB shirt in a pic taken from social media) and ep. 3 (a TikToker making a video about Kohberger's...

Also, I relistened to Black Hand Inn in its entirety, so it's track-by-track time: The Curse: a very much less interesting intro than Chamber of Lies leads us into the dark mood of the album. Black Hand Inn: this would have been their best opener BY FAR, had Riding the Storm not been in their...

Yes they did a mini-tour this summer. The Barcelona gig is on YT: And they'll be at Wacken in 2026 for their final show. It'll also be their 50th anniversary.

Yes but it's that bit only (it goes E- > C#- > G#- > D- > back to the main riff).

Pile of Skulls for me, but Black Hand Inn is close. The Brotherhood has a series of bangers too (I actually rank it above the post-BHI trilogy). I put together a best-of playlist of their discography recently. For Masquerade - Rivalry - Victory - The Brotherhood - Rogues en Vogue I picked...

From start to finish, yes.

Dylan Gers releases new single, interestingly titled... 'Talisman' https://blabbermouth.net/news/dylan-gers-son-of-iron-maiden-guitarist-janick-gers-releases-new-solo-single-talisman Tho it has nothing to do with Janick's epic

I agree, for example My God-Given Right (starting from the title itself, Jesus Christ...).

I'm sorry for you but I admire your guts in voicing it out publicly.

If I had the time to lose... Bologna 1981 (Killers WT, Bruce debut). Hammersmith 1983 (maybe the best night of the World Piece Tour). Rock in Rio 1985. Saint John (Ed Huntour opening night, already linked by @Patrick92). Milan 1999 (Ed Huntour). Rock in Rio 2001 (needless to say why). Ullevi 2005.
