BNW, AMOLAD and Senjutsu are the top 3 from all the reunion albums for me. The more I listen to Senjutsu, the more I like it. Started as a good one and now I think it's definitely great!

My biggest hope for 2024 is that GhostofCain stops his comments on Bruce each and every time he has the slightest opportunity to...it becomes really tiresome and really childish...time to move on don't you think? But you can't help yourself, can't you?

It's truly difficult to make just a top 5 since most of the time a lot of the songs he wrote are among the best in each album. Ok, lets give it a try: 1. Be quick or be dead 2. Ghost of the Navigator 3. Montségur 4. Dance of death 5. The legacy 6. The book of souls 7. The time machine ...ok...

He's very clear-sighted actually...all you have to do is to check what bands have been headliners for dozens of years now...it has nothing to do with "scaring off the oldies..." it's just a fact that young bands (and I'm talking here about bands with a 15-20 years of career already), have never...

I definitely agree here...It gets tiresome in the long run, same as with the ones constantly bashing Janick or Blaze, get over it, we all understood your point of view and opinion, no need to repeat it over and over again...from time to time, it's perfectly normal since I don't think any of them...

I really don't know what is wrong with Bruce's statement...he just basically says that they were doing their thing and didn't change anything at all in order to please "no regular Maiden fans". And also yeah, as a performer, it might be frustrating when the people at the front row seem to not...

Yeah, this is something I never quite understood. - replacing an iconic singer in such a legenday band is already a source of huge stress for the new singer, no matter his the level of experience - yet the band chose a singer with very little experience, specially in terms of long tours (which...

I think you partly answered to your own post in the other Blaze thread. Most of the times, fans are fans of the band, not of the members themselves. Of course, there is always the idea of the classic line-up but if one of these members leave the band to start a solo career, no matter how much he...

It's understandable that probably Steve was so sick and tired of Bruce (we should not forget as well that they never were the best friends in the world, far from it) and maybe he wanted to prove that Maiden could survive without Bruce that he decided to go the opposite way and have a singer that...

I think it's unfair to compare BNW sales with the ones of NPFTD and FOTD since the early 00's were the start of the Napster era so lots of downloads going on and since this was big news I'm sure there are a lot of fans that did it and didn't care buying the album afterwards. Not saying here that...

Just ten...ouch, ok I'm gonna give it a try Murders in the rue Morgue: while I'm not of a fan of the whole song, the calm intro is just magic, it really sets a certain kind of atmosphere that unfortunately totally disappears after that The number of the beast: the spoken intro followed by that...

:lol:not really, Andante's post just made me remember of this talk we had about it, with a friend, long years ago...fun story, but that's about it...it's just fun sometimes to try to imagine a different reality...oh and not really into "new Coke", I'd rather have a belgian trappist beer or a...

On one hand I would definetly agree with this statement but on the other there is always some gray areas and decisions that are not that easy to understand. Per example, I think they all knew right from the start that Blaze's voice wasn't on the same level as Bruce's and that he will probably...

I remember talking about this matter with one of my best friends who is also a huge Maiden fan and here is what we came up with: - In the early 90's Maiden were starting to be considered or were already considered and seen as an 80's band, the kind of band you tend to think more about what they...

All albums are back to Spotify including the live ones

Thanks for the detailed description, I forgot a bit about all the details, I just remember that I really love those releases and that there was a lot of very cool stuff to read, lot of details that I wasn't eve aware (with all of this I almost forgot about the live recordings and other demos...

I tend to support Maiden most of the time and agree with a lot of things they do and the way they do it but when it comes to anniversary releases, I must say they're among the most ridiculous I've ever seen. For the 40th anniversary of the debut album, what did we get...a clear picture disc...

Their guitarist situation of the 80's where one of the two was more like a statue on stage, hardly moving and looking serious (or should I say bored) as hell? And no bashing of Adrian here, he's a great guitar player and great writer but in terms of stage presence...no comment (even if he...

I'm gonna repeat some that have already been said: - Strange world: it has for some reason a very late 60's/70's vibe that is nowhere to be found in any other Maiden song - Innocent exile: you can really feel that it was of the first songs Steve wrote, the rhythm and riff is quite unusual for...

Juste between us, great Rush quote;)
