What if the person were to put a spoiler warning in the post if the attached pictures contain tour spoilers?

Please. Spoilers. Please don't list any songs without spoiler tags.

If Starblind would be considered an epic, then that's my choice. Purely beautiful music and wonderful poetic lyrics from Bruce, and extraordinarily passionate vocals from Bruce as well. If Starblind doesn't fit whatever you define as an epic, does Paschendale? Emotionally moving, and excellent...

Brave New World - Despite the fact that this one isn't even a solid incarnation, this has to be one of the most sinister Eddies. I mean, it's a freaking cloud! Smiling evilly! That's pretty scary, and also bad***. This was my computer background for a while. The Final Frontier - Some people...

I think one of the points that is being made in this thread is, even if they can, why should they? Why should it be about having the biggest audience. Iron Maiden is doing pretty f'kin awesome to be able to continue playing in front of audiences as large as they are 37 years after their...

So, you do have Brave New World? That's what I was going to recommend having seen the title of this thread, it's a great introduction to the modern lineup. But since you say you have it… The other three albums with this lineup are, in my opinion, all excellent, and I would say that you can't...

One thing: Shouldn't you have listed Adrian/Janick along with Bruce for the Bruce solo albums on which one of them played?

I understand what you're saying, LooseCannon, and I agree to an extent that things are political, and when I begin to talk about guns again I will discuss this event in such arguments, but my point more refers to people taking advantage of the immediate shock and pain of a tragedy and using it...

I've got a friend that's missing Maiden tonight, which especially sucks since he's never seen them before, and he was the person who got me into them, so I might feel a little guilty about being able to see them (in August) when he won't have been able to. But not enough to stop me from going ;)

I would agree that for most of the band's history, the other members have been "replaceable," but I think at this point, if someone quits, the band will be finished too. I hate to point it out, but I get the sense that Nicko is on some subconscious level being regarded as a 60 year old time...

I believe that this is a somewhat inappropriate time to discuss the Second Amendment. One thing that angers me is when politicians and pundits use a tragedy to advance a political agenda. In a few days, then I will be willing to discuss my opinions on the Second Amendment. But for now, my...

Steve also created said microlocal band ;)

The fact that Iron Maiden went on for 9 years without Adrian, producing at least one great (by Maiden standards, by rest of the world's standards all 4 are great) album along the way, tends to favor Dave being more important. Aside from Steve Harris' bass, Maiden's sound is probably most...

The whole petition thing got pretty old as soon as it started. Who ever heard of a metal band responding to a petition? In my mind, petitions are more for governments, politicians, and businesses. I think the ability to make petitions online has somewhat ruined their concept, since before you...

It seems that Steve's drummer and one of his guitarists have been in the British band The Outfield: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Outfield Guitarist Grahame Leslie toured with them 1985-1987 Drummer Simon Dawson was in the band 1990-2009

This one is a shocker to me. I pretty much thought that Iron Maiden was as close to Steve's solo band as we were ever going to see. My hope is that with this we see something exciting and somewhat different but still with elements of the signature Harris songwriting that we all know and...

I will agree that it's good not great. I think I've made it abundantly clear (or tried to do so) that I don't think this is one of Maiden's best, not by a long shot, but that I don't think it deserves to be put down as often and as fiercely as it is. I would say there are even lesser songs on...

I know I song that's more complex than both of those combined. It's a new song, it's entitled "Call Me Maybe." Yep, way more sophisticated than any silly Iron Maiden.

Regarding 2 A.M.: Thinking about it again, I guess I can see being bored by the music. I'm not, but I can understand how one could be. And yes, I think it could have used another verse, which probably would have raised up from the 8th on the album I currently place it. Regarding DLttEoaS...

Underrated songs… Hmm... Only the Good Die Young - As stated, would be an awesome closer. I mean, the line "So until the next time, have a good sin" just screams "closer" to me. Spiteful while somewhat mystical lyrics and awesome guitar and bass parts. I rank the concept album's closer higher...
