In the beginning I think all of them were positive: https://bravewords.com/news/nicko-mcbrain-reflects-on-blaze-bayley-s-time-fronting-iron-maiden-there-were-nights-when-he-sang-his-cotton-socks-off-and-it-was-brilliant-and-there-were-a-lot-of-other-nights-where-it-wasn-t-so-hot-video

Not hiring Kevin Shirley to record the Live Chapter in 2017 and Nights of the Dead in 2019.

Ghost of the Navigator Brave New World Dance of Death These Colours Don't Run The Final Frontier (but skip Satellite 15) The Book of Souls. Could add If Eternity Should Fail as well, but I think that's for a Bruce solo tour.

The new single sounds rather good to me.

Dokken - Fugitive (new single).

Strange World.

Perhaps a trip to Stockholm, Sweden as well. They haven't played there since 2018, and Sweden Rock festival played this year is a totally difference market (a 6 hour car ride from the capital).

I like the album, and I think Blaze's vocals sound better than on the last few studio albums. I have no issue with 4 out of 9 nine tracks being Maiden songs, as those are songs Maiden would never perform anyway - Fortunes of War was last played by Maiden in 1998 (at the first shows of the...
