Yes, we all have our tastes, but If I was able, I would give you what I was feeling. Cause it's the greatest fucking feeling ever!
Agreed. Of course, it's way to soon to make any final judgements but I am sure it will stand the test of time and I am beginning to think that this in the future will be up there with the golden era classics. There simply aren't any bad tracks on this one, and pulling out individual bits from...
Bruce shines on every song on this record, but maybe his singing on this takes the grand prize! It is otherworldly to say the least, and I cannot believe that he is able to get to that level in his day of age.
This song really puts the tone of the whole album: it's very serious and sincere. It's like Bruce is pointing the finger at you and says "listen up, I'm talking to you, I have something to say and you better pay attention!".
I'm done now and utterly drained from every emotion that this record has been pulling out of me. This is not a compilation of songs, it is a journey. This is indeed a new Era of iron Maiden and a completely new path for them. I am not taking these words lightly, since I have been through the...

This is very important to bear in mind. If some of you are wondering why other bands, that might have 20+ years in the business, are putting out less inspired albums, it's because they need to have a continuous touring and album schedule because that's their income. They don't have much to...
Hahaha! Big laughs from me! I get curious looks from my parents who are visiting on why I suddenly burst into laughter. I just love how you clarify that it's the Internet you are referring to!
Ok, so I didn't win the Bruce air/Paris studio competition, which is maddening considering the (sub par) motivation given by the winner. I will now give you mine:
"I don't have many big life goals but my greatest, is to understand the Book of Souls. "
You are all free to use it on t-shirts...
I must say, this along with the metal hammer cover, is the best artwork for years (I think the actual cover could be a little more elaborate). The stage production will hopefully be really cool, perhaps nodding a bit to that of powerslave.
"If Eternity Should Fail opens The Book of Souls with space-age blues vocal and mystical synth fanfare".. Ha ha! Finally, we have an album to base the "Iron Maiden on Ice"-experience!
I wonder how long it will take for Metal Hammer to become available abroad (Sweden). Is there any chance they send copies out before hand (like they do with cds to record stores).. probably a long shot.
