https://blabbermouth.net/news/judas-priest-to-release-the-best-of-judas-priest-career-spanning-collection A new ''Best Of'' to go with the documentary. Why? 16 songs, not from all albums (including 2 covers and songs like Crown Of Horns, Lightning Strike, Rocka Rolla). I guess they wanted a...

Sacred Outcry somehow slipped under my radar. This album, Towers Of Gold is full of strong power metal writing - melodies (that title track's outro), melodic vocal lines/vocals and playing (riffs, solos and instrumental parts, in every song!). Really good stuff, some classic approaches (I can...

The drummer Shawn Drover will be the first Special Guest Artist for Accept’s 50th Anniversary tour. Joining the band for the first 3 shows. edit: more announced are Jhon Norum, Fred Akesson. The concept, the rare songs, and the stage of this tour are curious.

Masterplan - Electric Nights The solo, the keys melody, and the chorus vocal melody could have been used in a 90s Helloween song. The drum intro is pure Uli Kusch.

I think not. ^Good question. But if they (some of the members) need this year off to continue with the same lineup and write a new album (if they have the desire, but what, playing the same songs with no theme more or less), so be it. It's clear that they're making plans along the way now, and...

Joe Stump's Tower Of Babel - Alone In The Desert Mistheria is involved with this project. One of the best Richie Blackmore-esque solos! Kudos. The whole song is very Rainbow with Dio, class. :rocker:

It's curious if Bruce will release the next solo album soon again, with his band on fire (in 2-3 years, they have a lot of ideas). Let's see. Even with a new Maiden album in the next two years, he will have the time to tour. Let's also see how successful the new album will be, to gain even more...

Crimson Glory - Chasing The Hydra Solid prog metal writing, heavy riffs, interesting and worthy playing, good vocals. ''Redden The Sun'' is a solid Halford-esque banger and one of the best songs with its verses, chorus and instrumental section (classic outro for them), the title track sums up...

A samurai art with Eddie from SJ's box set- I'm seeing it for the first time. Nice and fitting to have such an art style for the album, the anniv book also has a similar art for the album. I couldn't find it in better quality. It reminds me of Bruce's TM aesthetics.

Steve and Adrian in the studio in '80 or '81. Is this Steve's black bass? Probably.

https://blabbermouth.net/news/adrian-smith-on-iron-maidens-50th-anniversary-its-incredible-its-gone-so-quickly-really ...but we've done such a lot. It's been an incredible journey, incredible journey. And I think with this anniversary tour, we're just trying to — we start off with some old...

What if they all tour mostly in the fall (ofc Bruce with the longest tour; but if it is 5 months and he visits all expected places (Europe, NA, SA, maybe Australia), would he do a short 2nd leg in 2028 or it will be split between two years, or just more festival dates in Europe for 2028, if...

Odd statement from Steve (it also seems they originally didn't wan't to do a documentary for the anniv). They've already announced that next year will be a break, so it would be atypical of them to change it, despite Steve's words. Bruce is also expected to do a longer solo tour (confirmed to be...

Fear is a big classic (live is better), Unbeliever is cool in its own way, Thin Line is sooo good and memorable, Journeyman is nostalgic, Legacy is unique, Wild Wind is fun, and Empire is incredibly epic - but Hell On Earth is all of those things in one!

I would love such a guitar tone from Philip for the new album, it feels TCW. His live sound. He likes thrash metal riffs.

Rime Hallowed (they are like equal, it's just that Rime is grand epic, Hallowed is even better live) Alexander (close second, what a unique and epic piece) To Tame A Land (unique vibe and the latter part saves it) Only The Good Die Young (a tie probably, really well putted shorter song) Iron...

https://hotmetalmag.com/steve-harris-says-he-opposes-maiden-taking-a-year-off/ New interview with Steve. ''It seems like next year Maiden are not going to do, if anything… anything at all. So I might go out and do some festivals next year with British Lion. When I get back with the lads, the...

It's The Wicker Man for me, no doubt - a perfect anthemic rocker and opener. Be Quick (speed metal stuff is always cool), Futureal (same as the description above, essential Maiden) and Sign Of The Cross (those melodies) are on close second. Different World is right after them, such a melodic...

Hey, they did it. Any recognition is nice. I think Nicko could accept it, the band recording a thank you video with Bruce would be wow.... the best of all would be Bruce and Blaze to perform together, but it's certain that the band won't change their schedule or play.
