I wouldn't say many. I guess: Murders, Killers, Phantom(not sure), Rime, Seventh Son and Aces. The big classics will return for sure. This. It wasn't that unlikely for us to expect 1-2 more big surprises, right. Like on every tour. I think the show might not be that great for some fans...

Good points. Although it could be worse... cough... Also, Bruce's latest solo album proved this for the production and takes. They just don't put that much effort anymore, which is sad considering their legacy. And I have to say, Kevin's produced live albums of the band sound great, with much...

Didn't Bruce say in the DOTR documentary that he thought Steve was probably inspired for Dance Of Death by Number Of The Beast. The solos are definitely better in their own way, and the whole instrumental section is more lively and classic for the band. I usually find Maiden's solos for the...

Now that you bring it up, despite being different albums, I do think BNW (style, approach) could have been a continuation to say of SSOASS - but only with 3 guitars. And despite the guitar work being more adventurous in '88. It's ofc the VXI-DOD sound of the band (TXF is different, AMOLAD is its...

The ''Painkiller style'' works for them the best. Maiden can afford to take different approaches since the Reunion, that's the legacy they're building. And I don't think the longer songs are trying to rewrite Fear. As for Scott Travis' drumming, that's just his style. Well said.

And still the rhythm guitar sounds more upfront than on the last few albums. Although in TFF is nice. The ''live in the studio'' approach is really odd, not gonna lie. How an album can have songs that sound different, that's just wow... some are less muddy than the others. Writing On The Wall...

This is actually not an easy question. Worst or weakest for me: The Apparition Hooks In You Invaders (only because of the chorus) others: Another Life, Innocent Exile, Prodigal Son, Public Enema Number One, Age Of Innocence... not sure though.

Agreed. SJ and let's call them ''ancient melodies'' is a recognizable feature. Yeah, Stratego and Days Of Future Past can sound both classic and modern Maiden.

Easy for me: Be Quick Or Be Dead/Judas Be My Guide Futureal The Wicker Man Rainmaker Stratego edit: next in line is Different World.

Ok, let's see: Stratego - DOD Lost In A Lost World - TXF Death Of The Celts - VXI Days Of Future Past - TBOS Speed Of Light - TFF The Great Unknown - AMOLAD Shadow Of The Valley - AMOLAD El Dorado - TBOS Mother Of Mercy - AMOLAD Coming Home - AMOLAD The Alchemist - DOD When The Wild Wind Blows...

The lack of power in the mix (since 2006) and the raw sound of the guitars/riffs. Even the drums, but they have their charm. Maybe with 3 guitars is different and tricky.

I think it's just a sign of the times, and it's normal and not bad. They became more metal in 1984. Like Maiden's early style.

An appropriate look at their discography and styles. I prefer ''metal Priest'' the most, so option #4 should be the pick, but I'm not a fan of Jugulator (no melodic approach at all), although I really like the heavy sound and riffs. If it was Painkiller-Firepower-Invincible Shield, it would...

If I have to pick one, I think they could have removed and definitely shortened the outro. Almost 2 minutes long, the intro is over 2 minutes! Maybe Steve didn't want to make the song any longer, especially with the other long epics on the album, and that's why the chorus isn't repeated. Idk.

Now this is a really tough choice. Both songs are some of Maiden's very best and are classics. Top 10 material. Essential Maiden. Interestingly, I really wished Hell On Earth's chorus had been repeated at least 2 times more, while Dance Of Death doesn't even need a proper chorus. Beautiful and...

Don't take Akirant's fun event shirts for example, check out his SJ related artworks and tour posters. One of Maiden's best artists for me. Wilkinson, a fantastic an iconic Maiden artist, has said he won't be working with Maiden anymore and may have retired, unfortunately. Derek, I highly doubt...

If the chorus had been repeated, it would have been like the ultimate Maiden song for me. I still can't believe it. Let's hope a potential next album won't have such features. It's great to see many different lists for the most part in this thread, it shows the quality of the Reunion era. I...

Dave Sullivan! Nice to see him again. He didn't expect the band to be this big now. The sound is better on a pro-shot ofc, but is it just me or the cymbals mix is really low even on that? And will Maiden release one live song, like from every tour, or will they save ''the surprise'' for the...

It was about time for such a game. :) Why only 5 though? There are so many amazing album arts. I have to think about this for a long time. I would love to participate in a Maiden one.

And we have a new art spawned from the tour. Nice. I think it's possible they could use Akirant for a potential new album. It's a rather interesting art and it definitely has an old school feel to it, but it could have been much more detailed and impressive. He says he's a big fan of the band...
