My God SOLD! I've only read the first section about Senjutsu it's everything I have ever wanted in my life. This sounds like so poignant and serious. I understand now why all three seemed to be going through existential crisis in the studio video. I. CAN. NOT. WAIT!

Oh they seem very enthusiastic! It's like they can't keep themselves from exploding in enjoyment! /s I don't know, but it's like they read our concerns for "keeping things quiet" and the marketing team trying to scramble things from the bottom drawer. Don't get me wrong, I love seeing them...

This is the link to the clip: https://www.tv4.se/klipp/va/13351578/musiken-ar-gjord-pa-ljud-av-kvinnor-som-foder-barn?utm_source=tv4.se&utm_medium=shared_link&utm_campaign= The segment is not just discussing Maiden. The guy is deeply rooted in pop culture and possesses enough sub cultural...

Just wanted to say that Maiden got some exposure on the biggest TV morning show in Sweden today. They talked about the political messages in TWOTW and showed a clip from it and briefly mentioned the new album. Nice to see mainstream media hopping onto the train as well.

I was worried about the cover illustration but it's OK. Maybe a little too reminiscent of BOS. This however, is lovely!

I have no idea what I am doing but I let Google translate scan the image and it identified the language as Chinese and it indeed translates to "death" or some synonym.

I've watched the video a few times now, just studying the narrative, and samurai Eddie doesn't make much sense in the story. The rest of the story is pretty coherent imo, although scrambled from bits and pieces of everything. The cloaked character falls into the core and transforms into. Samurai...

Not sure if this has been posted already, but it's got some new insight from the video director as well as Rod: https://www.itsnicethat.com/news/nicos-livesey-blinkink-iron-maiden-the-writing-on-the-wall-animation-150721

Ah thank God!

If that's the case, which I'm actually not ruling out, then they've put themselves in a pickle with the album cover mismanagement and maybe also overall hype during the campaign. I'm sure there was a lot of work with the video, to give something to the fans in the meantime, and that Bruce had a...

I mean, if where talking about a samurai Eddie then Writing on the Wall doesn't really fit anymore. Way of the Warrior sure is cheesy, but it wouldn't be THAT surprising. Anyway, the next couple of album covers might give away some clues to what it is. If WOTW and the tower were only meant for...

"In BlinkInk director Nicos Livesey, another long-time Maiden fan & kindred spirit, they found a man who shared the collective vision for the track – resulting in the final film which features the very first glimpse of a stunning new incarnation of Eddie." So the samurai Eddie? That's the Eddie...

Underwhelmed! Great song but come on, this is no feast!!

Thanks! Now I don't have to zoom in on this abomination!

Sounds like most people here have abandoned the idea of an actual live performance (pre-recorded or live-live)?! I still can't see this as "just" a single with all the "Live forever", the "feast" invitation and the still from Shepherd’s Bush in the Clairvoyant video. The build up points to...

Alarm clock going off. Eddie wakes up to reveal what's behind the feast event.

With or without a connection to Maiden, the art is absolutely stunning. It's conceptually coherent as well. I can definitely see someone (Hi Bruce!) building a thematic universe around it.

Whatever the circumstances (pre-recorded live stream?) Whoever you are (but your mum) Where ever you are in the world.. You are invited to this event. And then the "Live forever" as a clue to what the feast really is. I don't think these are song titles.

.. Or it's just the name of the "evening with Iron Maiden" that we are invited to and about to witness. It ties in with the actual name and theme of the new album (WOTW), but it's not a name of a song. Or? I'm impressed with the marketing here in that they actually managed to keep the...
