Most probably. You wouldn't be able to change it depending on each song's era. But they could have done something that mixed a bit of the different albums´aesthetics.

«Montsegur» is an absolute killer. It rips on every aspect.

It's one of Harris' favourite Maiden albums, and I agree with him. It's so immersive, and sophisticated in its metal minimalism. The production is so special, direct and raw but clean in a sense, very airy. Blaze nails it, every word. He was perfect for this record, a precise channeller of...

I've just come across the bootleg from Madrid 1998. Damn, were we lucky to witness this.

Their 14th of July 2024 gig in Madrid was unexpectedly mind-blowing.

Haha.. The "year off" keeps shrinking!

True!

Getting «Lord Of The Flies» was pretty cool too.

This is from Run For Your Lives 2025 in Madrid, but I figured it could be posted here since on this thread we've discussed the future of Maiden and Steve's and Bruce's relationship in that mindset. Any proper fan will recognise this typical Maiden bonding gesture. I've seen Harris doing it to...

Agree. I couldn't care less about the animated video parts, except for Bruce running from the ghost in «Hallowed Be Thy Name». I like it better when only small details move, like the bones in Eddie's spine during «Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son», or the amazing eyeball movements for «The...

AMOLAD BNW DOD SJ TBOS TFF That doesn't mean that I think The Final Frontier is weak —no fucking way. This is just a preferred order in terms of how much I go back to each title. To me all of these records are excellent. Just today I was thinking that the "third Maiden era" output is actually...

An absolute masterpiece. The best "reunion" album, and definitely one of Maiden's all time top 5. It takes some time to get it. But once you do, the reward is huge. Whenever I dive back into these songs, which I do regularly, the record reveals itself in a new light. Is deep, catchy, heavier...

I enjoyed their return to the theatrics and historical themes so much. It was also the confirmation that the reunion plan was for real. Five songs from the setlist were Dance Of Death tracks. And I love it when Maiden focuses on new material. All this, of course, is justifiable because I do like...

That gig was fucking brilliant. And the band could feel it. Journeyman is good proof. That "muy bien" from Bruce after the first chorus takes me back there giving me goose bumps.

I still have to listen to that jewel. But I think that one and the one on my list benefit from the same particularity: none of the two used de DMM master, and come across warmer and "laidback".

Something like that would have had everyone so hyped up, the band too. Simon doesn't get anyone too excited. But I still hope for improvement. In the end, I will always trust Steve's instinct —I'm saying this while listening to «The Angel And The Gambler»!!

Agree. And, from some of Bruce's comments, we'll have to see about that "year off"... Hopefully it might end up being a few months off and on to writing new material. Although I'm not sure if Steve is willing to go into a studio without Nicko... Do you guys think he's done with recording? It's...

Very true.

He's also responsible for some of the best Maiden songs since 1992.

The best sounding versions of the titles up to Seventh Son of a Seventh Son are the vinyl original pressings, which contain the uncompressed analog sound as it was recorded and released. To fully understand this, and the reason why vinyl can indeed sound better than digital, you need a GOOD...
