We can safely assume something has happened if Roy Z gets sacked from the remixing projects... ... Which he won't be. Sit tight.

Sure. Doesn't mean that you have to fire on all cylinders. Nobody here was upset about anything but you.

Plausible. They need around 6 months to press the vinyl.

The production is better than expected, considering that it wasn't just a low budget album; it was a sleep-in-the-van-and-record-at-night-at-lower-rates low budget album. It's a clear step up from Rocka Rolla in that regard. That being said, they sure benefited from the additional guitar...

I get it, there is a lot of negativity on the forum that I myself get a bit irritated with; it drags you down, but sometimes thingsaren't passive-aggressive, but tongue-in-cheek. This is one of those moments. Nobody was ranting that the beer thing is ridiculous, that it's a rip-off, that he...

Don't give him any more ideas, like "Bruce Dickinson ice skates" or "The Mandrake rake - rake the Florida wildfires away".

Bruce went all in with AoB, but it's still closer to modern day Bruce than the 80s stuff is. Bruce handles the AoB stuff without needing to downtune (well, he doesn't need, as in have to, to downtune with Maiden either, but it would elevate his performances), whereas I have long said Maiden...

I think that the first album is pretty weak, and I was deeply disappointed. But their second album is a lot better. I do agree about the lyrics though.

I think so too; but I also think that his solo stuff should stay in the original tuning, as they are more suited to his current voice than the 80s stuff are.

He is also very clearly having a mild cold, so might be more appropriate to dissect performances when he's out of the cold (look at that, landed a Judas Priest reference).

I suppose he's a rival more than Glenn Hughes is. Sure, I can put his name up there. To be fair to Bruce though, Adams is also one of those singers that aren't very loud and do a lot of talk-singing, but his voice is indeed well preserved.

I was just editing my post, because he came up on the top of my head.

At 65? That were exceptional singers to begin with? Bruce has retained more of his old self live than just about every 60+ metal/heavy rock singer with an exceptional performance catalogue I can think of. Like, Glenn Hughes has retained his top falsetto and head voice, but he's pitchy (and...

I'm all down for dissecting and reviewing performances, and have done that a bit myself, but I try to not overdo it and set reasonable expectations. Bruce sounds good, and certainly better than he does nowadays with the 80's stuff where he did all those crazy things and had to adapt to Steve's...

So you went to the dress rehearsal for the upcoming tour?
