Who the fuck did that horrendous AI upscale job on that? It looks like shit! It's like Bruce is made out of wax or something, he's so smooth and has highlights on him. Not to mention taking a perfectly good video and cropping most of the fucking frame out so you can repost it as a short.

Yeah and even those sessions had their fair share of grumbling (from Nicko at least) since not everyone was as enthusiastic about heading back in the studio in the middle of winter in Paris. I would honestly not be surprised if it turned out that it's really only Bruce who has any real interest...

I believe he also offered an ultimatum: either Blaze goes or he does. Losing Nicko would've pretty much spelled the death of the band anyway at that stage so there was no path forward with Blaze at the helm.

Interesting comment. Care to elaborate?

Well, when you're the greatest metal drummer on earth, I think you've earned some arrogance.

2027 seems like the most likely candidate for when the Paris live album/video will be released, and I wouldn't be surprised if they're planning on going bigger with it after such a long break with a limited cinema release and whatnot. It wouldn't be entirely inappropriate for Maiden's last...

Hey now, I was actually impressed at the low if nonzero number of people who replied to the announcement tweet with "what the hell WHEN'S THE AMERICAN TOUR," even though it wasn't exactly heavily emphasized (they probably should've still bolded some of the key sentences since they're paying for...

Will he be waving the Br- I'm sorry, English flag as he puts it during it?

For fuck's sake. Really?

BTW this isn't particularly uncommon in the metal scene since having a draft on you while you're sweating your ass off is not a good idea. Metallica is another such example.

Turns out you really can't play heavy metal with synthesizers! e: Jesus Christ you weren't kidding about the chorus. The funny thing is, the verses are so low I'm not even sure they could lower the key without causing issues on the other end.

If they played this in 2008? Almost certainly. In 2025 though, well...

Dad rock? Get your genres straight. Ghost is Swedish pop rock down to a T with the slightest twinge of distorted guitars in the mix. I don't begrudge Tobias Forge for finding ways to make a living off music (and all the same I don't have to enjoy it), but at the very least I'll still make sure...

I couldn't care less for Ghost, they're relatively inoffensive pop rock and my only real complaint these days is how much they get overplayed on the radio. However, stage show wise they're in another universe compared to Maiden and I think it's funny how some have convinced themselves that...

I was vaguely aware of Silver Wings but never really gave it a chance until they started playing it on the radio post-Mandrake release and I have to admit, it's not a half-bad tune that. They should play it live honestly, since AFAIK the only time it got played was in '02 and the potato-quality...
