Every album they've recorded in the internet era it's been known that they were in the studio at the time they were in it, even the times they've tried to keep it quiet. I think if they'd been in a studio, the Maiden nerds would have spotted it.

I bought the tickets for this summers tour on the 24th of September last year, so you'ld be expecting 2026 tickets to go on sale around the same time, which would line up for an announcement quite soon alright

Don't Look to the Eyes of a Stranger is the worst Maiden song, regardless of writing credits.

Nah it was in Kerrang (most likely) or Metal Hammer at the time it happened

Both Bruce and Korn were on some American TV show, probably MTV but I can't remember, around the time Accident of Birth was being released, and Korn were the biggest band in metal at that time. When they saw Bruce was on the same show, they complained that they didn't want to be seen dead with...

There was a certain amount of hyperbole in my post, and also the bias of being 15/16 when the first Korn album came out so it was my heyday that had these cunts inflicted on it. But they are still unquestionably the worst band in the world, all day I dream about sex and that song where he's...

re: lightning's lyrics Is it just me or are they totally shit? Right, the phrase "lightning strikes twice" is generally used to mean like some sort of profound, catastrophic event reoccurring to someone. But Maiden's lyrics go on about lone dogs howling in the park, and people hurrying inside...

Mother of Mercy is the better song, but not sure if that's what's being asked to vote for? i.e. it could be vote for which shit chorus is worse

Prophecy is the other

I'd say plenty of these fans, if they ever saw Maiden in the flesh, and not on youtube, it would be more likely their first time, than the last time.

I only have two, Violent Revolution and The World Needs a Hero, Violent Revolution is pretty good although I can't say I've listened to it in years, TWNAH is pretty shit although Dread and the Fugitive Mind may be the best Megadeth track since their heyday

The X Factor has the more artistic merit in that the songs are mostly there, it's the production and performances that let it down. No Prayer is the most consistent across the whole album, it's just consistently average. Fear of the Dark has the strongest high points. Virtual XI is Maiden's...

Sign of the Cross was definitely seen as a major dud by the UK press, so that was a real "we're Iron Maiden, we'll do what we want" moment, as were the rest of the tracks you mentioned.

Agreed. Also the guitar sound with Maiden seems to be one of the recurring themes in these types of thread, but no one ever calls out the guitarists for having shit tone. And they all do.
