Just had a minor heart attack as I called up my go-to CD stockist, asked when they'd be getting BoS and was absolutely mortified when they said they wouldn't be stocking the album AT ALL, according to their system.
Had this situation remained, I probably would have caved and listened to the...
WELL SHIT.
I swore I was going to wait. And wait I shall.
But damn, the boundless enthusiasm is NOT going to make the next 7 days easy.....
This is the most agonising thing ever.....is anyone besides myself going to abstain?
Oh yeah, definitely. I am very big on listening to whole albums as opposed to particular songs, and have never skipped a song whilst jamming a whole album ever. (obviously its a bit different if I'm jamming a song where time is limited, but I usually play an album every night)
In fact, I very...
Thought this was an interesting contrast to both Brigantium and Forostars' unanimous decision regarding the strength of disk 2 over disk 1.

His prior tweets state disk one is paced similar to Powerslave while he felt Shadows of the...
Well, to be perfectly honest, Brave New World is the only Maiden album that has grown off me quite substantially. I don't hate it by any means, but ever since I delved into the rest of Maidens back catalogue (Brave New World was actually the first studio album I had bought from Maiden) it just...
So, I had a dream last night where I was attending a Maiden show...wake up to find that that Iron Maiden ARE COMING TO NEW ZEALAND!!!! SWEET EDDIE THE HEAD IM SO GODDAMN EXCITED!!!!!
To put it in perspective in Maidens entire career, they have come to New Zealand just TWICE, once during the x...
This is not about The Book of Souls, but its an incredibly well written essay which I personally found very touching in parts. The writer attempts to capture the mystical endearment that Maiden seem to inspires on a global scale...
As relentlessly agonising the wait for The Book of Souls has been for me, I'm going to try (try being the operative word) and reach September 4th without having any more content divulged, including the potentially incoming second single, If Eternity Should Fail....not too long now.
Also...
A far more succinct piece from MusicRadar. A lot of focus on Nicko (Its in the drum section of the site after all)
There are some spoilers as to how Nicko plays and what he plays on particular songs, but if you don't read it, you're not missing out on any vital information or especially...
Huge piece from the Team Rock site. Im not sure how many of you have access to the site so I copied the whole thing just in case and put it in spoilers.

I find it peculiar that you're speaking as though you somehow have more knowledge than another Maiden fan with regard to a song you have yet to hear. Also, you seem to phrase a lot of your opinions and speculation as though they are fact. Do try to remember that we are talking about music, which...
I can't find the sources at the moment, but i'm 99% sure that Steve said his favourite records are Piece of Mind and Seventh Son, while Brave New World is among Bruces' favorites (He also claims its his favourite production wise)
Not sure about the others, but I remember reading/watching a...
Its interesting that, of the 4 reviews I've seen, there is no general consensus with regard to the albums weak points. One review said Death or Glory was the weak point, but in this review its a stronger rocker than Speed of Light. It seems like it'll be extremely consistent ala AMOLAD
There...
(I have posted this before, but I didn't realise there was a dedicated thread at the time)
The video is so fun. Lots of throwbacks which have already been discussed. The only issue I have with it is that Eddie kills I Dinosaur....I fuckin love Dinosaurs and Eddie, so needless to say it was a...
