    The Official Book of Souls Tour 2016 Thread (Warning: Spoilers within!)

    Uh... French Canadian article about the show in Montreal: http://www.tvanouvelles.ca/2016/03/31/led-force-one-diron-maiden-atterrit-a-montreal "...promoting their album «The Book Of Gouls»..." :facepalm:

    Quest For Fire

    About the dinosaurs line... It was impossible for Bruce not to know they had gone extinct long before the first monkeys were born. He had excellent grades in History and would surely have told Steve something was wrong. My guess is that the "time" they're talking about is Prehistory in...

    Flight of Icarus

    I was listening to this song when my younger brother came into my room and asked "Haha what are you listening to?" Now all his friends listen to it because none of them can hear "like an eagle" properly, if you know what I mean.

    Hidden meanings behind the Iron Maiden cover art

    Maybe Riggs just stopped to hide numbers in the covers after Seventh Son. X is ok because you can see it both as the letter itself and the roman number, but including VIII or adding eight persons in the art is starting to be complicated.

    Individual song polls

    I calculated my average rating for TBOS and I noticed that this method could be more accurate. I was surprised to get only 7.27 and I thought that my rating would be higher if I took into account the lenght of the songs: R = r × l / L R: Weighted average rating (a number from 0.042 if you give...

    I personally wouldn't mind if the piano of Empire was pre-recorded. It would still be worth it.

    Empire Of The Clouds

    Bringing up the old debate about the Titanic fitting inside... In 1930, the ship had been lying in pieces at the bottom of the ocean for nearly two decades. Surely, her volume would have been reduced significantly after all this time. Bruce also says "fits", not "would have fitted", which leads...

    Most depressing Maiden material

    The most depressing songs have already been named, but I have to add When the Wild Wind Blows. He sees a teardrop from his wife roll down her face Saying grace Remember times they had, they flash right through his mind Left behind Of a lifetime spent together long ago Will be gone

    Empire Of The Clouds

    I think hearing a new album in one listen provides more joy than a human can handle. There must be a point where happiness neurotransmitters begin to lose their effect after a prolonged period of time. Like eating eleven full plates of a delicious food. Take Aces High. I heard it for the first...

    Empire Of The Clouds

    One page of replies for each minute of the song, it can be a coincidence. Ok, so I bought the album on September 6th and listened to a new song every week. It was a torture. I decided to wait until college was over to listen to Empire. Wow. It was worth the wait. And the morse code at 6:56 and...

    Best opening to a song?

    Powerslave... if you consider the intro is the outro of Back to the Village. I can't help but see someone lost in a pyramid and running away from a mummy.
