Well the entire album does have a very dull & gloomy vibe not denying that but I think the tracks are pretty catchy. This again is subjective & so our opinions may clash

So I’d say X factor had some meaningful, long songs (barring a few) unlike Fear of the Dark and the album wasn’t a drag. I’m not saying FOTD was a drag but quality of tracks was crappier than that on X.

Yep and that’s exactly what they’re doing now. They wanna do what they want regardless of commercial success. They have a sound, a certain melody that appeals to their fan base and that’s what they’re doing. Sometimes, you just gotta do what you’re the best at (musically) & commercial success...

Seeing Maidens & recently Bruce’s album position, it’s still good to see that people even today listen to metal & specifically Maiden. I’d love to hear what you guys have to say as to why Maiden even today is so well received as compared to other bands. I my opinion, it would be: 1.) Melody...

So honestly idk what went into making Fear of the Dark. Given how musical tastes were changing in the 90s, think they’d have to make songs that sound a lot more commercial and light to the audience. Hence you had songs like Fear of the Dark (worst title track in my opinion), From here to...

Pretty sure I read somewhere that it was supposed to be on Tattooed Millionaire.

One Drop will fill the niggghhttttt. Gotta love the riff here :notworthy:

I think X-Factor is an amazing album. Despite having been around dark days (Arrys divorce), I think some of the songs really make you come back to the album more so than Fear of the Dark.

In Finland too. Glad to see his solo music doing well. His best performing album. Think he’ll do another album soon. Hopefully 2 years

Well for me it’ll be Afraid to Shoot Strangers, Fear is the Key, Childhoods End, Wasting Love, The Fugitive, Judas Be My Guide. Besides wasn’t wasting love supposed to be a part of Tattooed Millionaire

Unpopular opinion but it’s my choice. Fear of the Dark is my least favorite title track. That song for me is in the “Meh” category. It’s the song I just can’t fucking stand. I almost never listen to that song unless I’m listening to the entire album. Production wise, probably the best produced...

Sometimes I forget it ever existed :D

I think Fear of the Dark has good production albeit the album sucked

Tattooed millionaire > Painkiller

For those who pre-ordered from his website, do you get a signed copy of the album?

Couldn’t agree more. He’s legit visiting different places to just go sign copies of his album.

out of the lonely planet? Interview ended for me right there :D:D:D

Agreed man. Expectations were sky high given the huge gap between this and TOS. And yeah people were expecting things on the lines of TCW & AOB. But this is Bruce and he is gonna experiment since Capn Arry won’t allow him to do the same in Maiden. He gets to be himself here musically.

I just wish I was European sometimes :rolleyes:

I think it’s positive among the critics and mixed (with a slight tilt towards negative) among the fans
