It is one of the best biographies I have read in a while. He comes across a nice guy, but struggled to come to terms with his sexuality out fear of what people would think. Some really funny moments in there.
I am likeing the album more. But.... as with every Maiden album since Dance of Death I fine myself wondering if my hi-fi equipment is broken the production again is dire.
On a couple of listens my first impressions were it was a DoD clone. Impressions so far IESF and EOTC are book ends of Dance of Death 2.
Looks like AMOLAD is the best reunion album for me.
I've always said this about Maiden though which is why I like them so much their music has never been...
I can't understand how anyone can say its good or bad after a few listens.
Maiden aren't a pop band out for a catchy tune. Come back in a month then judge it.

What gets me is that the band and Bruce especially hail Blaze as part of the Maiden 'family'...
The Man Who Would Be King
Get yourself in one of those finding God moods and open up the hubble space telescope web site to browse the amazing pictures while listening to Startblind. I guarantee you'll think its the best moment in your life.
Does anyone else think that this song is the brother of 'Lord Of Light'? Central to the song is the normal man that has been deceived all his life thinking he was following the 'correct God' and upon his death realises he has been coned, when all around the true God has been staring you in the...
The Man Who Would Be King
Did anyone else notice that in the interviews released with the CD that Bruce doesn't seem to be that carried away with this song? He seems to not want to talk about it and wants the interviewer to move on to the next question.
Having now been able to listen to it...
