    "be Quick" From Donni = "be Quick" From Arldo

    Intrigued by this thread over at the IMBB, I played the two versions back to back enough times to realise that, indeed, it is the same recording. The ARLDO booklet states that the version of this song was recorded in Super Rock 92 in Mannheim, Germany, but it seems that this is but another...

    Concept album?

    I believe it was a consious effort to make the album thematic around Death. After all, this can't be a coincidence, seeing that it was their 13th album and that Maiden have showed intrest in tarot time and again:

    Testimonial And A Question

    If you like compilations, go for "Best Of The Beast" 2cd edition (I recomend the limited edition with the hardcase booklet from ebay, you won't be sorry). If you prefer albums.... Iron Maiden: rough / edgy / punky Killers: still rough but more midtempo songs and great production Number of...

    The Star Symbol On The Floor Of The Dod Cover And Its Significance

    During the DOTR documentary, Nicko reffers to the symbol on the DOD cover floor as a "12 pointed star". I've done a bit of searching and have found that it is found in many cultures as a symbol with variating symbolism: "12 Pointed Stars are found cross culturally and can refer to the 12...

    An interesting observation on pom / icarus covers

    By the way, if you check the best album cover poll, I link to a thread on the IMBB where I have posted Derek Riggs' explanation of the cube in the Icarus cover. It's not the door, it's the whole cell. Nice little trivia. I also managed to find a whole version of the artwork via Electric Matthew...

    Coolest Album Cover Artwork

    I emailed your speculation to Riggs, this is what he had to say on the matter: "Powerslave was always intended to be a regular sleeve and not a gatefold sleeve. it was never commissioned as a gatefold sleeve. A gatefold sleeve is the propper term for a record cover that opens out like a book...

    Christmas Card Entries...

    it's alot better than what I could ever come up with but it is vastly inferior to some of the runnerups. I hate that minimalistic approach to drawing (reminds me of Iced Earth's artworks), I much rather Tap's style.

    here's a hint. If you want your card chosen next year, you only need to avoid one mistake you're making. Make sure the next entry has something to do with the artwork of the release they'll be trying to promote at the time. Thats why the last 2 Crap Xmas card were chosen. The 2003 one to promote...
