    Do you mean you've seen a leak of that size or a leak should be around that size?

    "The Book of Souls" - Official pre-release thread (CONTAINS ALBUM SPOILERS)

    The other night I dl'd something claiming to be lyrics to the book of souls. The page looks kind of similar in size to what Mariners pic looks like. Still not sure it's legit which is why I haven't posted it with spoiler tags. With so many people flaunting the pics or the discs & contents now...

    Well, if they are selling them, I dont see how leaking the album helps them. Idont see a forum on their site but, they definitely have a shop. I though shipment wouldnt occur until 9/1 so perhaps a leak will come sooner than later.

    Way too high. Thankfully, this isn't the same guy who reviewed TBOS. Because I don't share a lot of opinions in common about this album. He was pretty ho hum throughout this entire review & then decided to give it a 9. Very strange. To me, FF is the weakest album post reunion, along with DOD...

    "The Book of Souls" - Official pre-release thread (CONTAINS ALBUM SPOILERS)

    We can agree it sounds terrible. No dispute there. Blabbermouth gave it 8.5 which is a metal site. There were more than a few positive reviews from metal reviewers. It doesn't matter, universally regarded as a sh*tty album lol

    "The Book of Souls" - Official pre-release thread (CONTAINS ALBUM SPOILERS)

    You're pretty spot on. 24 prerelease reviews & metacritic had it in the mid 60's. Which means there were more positive than negative reviews. Which is exactly what I was trying to say.

    LOL I think not my friend. Let's chalk that misunderstanding up to your 3rd language. No defensiveness, anger or anything here.

    "The Book of Souls" - Official pre-release thread (CONTAINS ALBUM SPOILERS)

    I don't see anyone comparing Maiden & Metallica. I think it's crap & stated so. Perhaps you missed it. I think you have a little bit of reading comprehension issue. I don't mean that to be offensive but, you have misread everything I have typed in this thread today. I brought up 2 albums as...

    Well, I never said it was highly praised. I just said I read too many positive reviews of it before release. And yes, there were positive reviews. Outnumbering the negative ones according to metacritic. As for GNR, we all have opinions.

    "The Book of Souls" - Official pre-release thread (CONTAINS ALBUM SPOILERS)

    Who is to say they didn't? They probably did. But, that doesn't obligate the reviewer to be favorable towards them. Another poster had said that earlier & they are right. I also don't know where the word bribery came from. That's not what I've suggested. Offering up incentives in hopes they get...

    "The Book of Souls" - Official pre-release thread (CONTAINS ALBUM SPOILERS)

    Some of you are just running with what you think was said, not what wa actually said. Nor did I suggest that. In my original post, I simply said Maiden cannot pay everyone for a good review. That does not imply that they did. It also does not mean that they didn't. You are all making of it what...

    "The Book of Souls" - Official pre-release thread (CONTAINS ALBUM SPOILERS)

    But, you already agreed it's done all the time. So why would it be wrong to assume or say it? If you know it happens, why is it wrong to suggest it? That doesn't make any sense. Also, I never said that they were doing it heavily. I don't think Rod is going out & blatantly saying good review for...

    It's called "greasing". It's common place in all walks of life. You are making it out as if it's a negative. It happens every single day. You do me a solid here & I'll take care of you later? It's everywhere at all times. I'll bring up 2 classic examples music wise. St. Anger & Chinese...

    "The Book of Souls" - Official pre-release thread (CONTAINS ALBUM SPOILERS)

    Yes. I think it's highly likely. If you are only thinking about money, that is a very limited viewpoint. I don't think they are offering up cash per se but, "incentives" without a doubt. Exclusives, giveaways, access, etc. That is paying, even if cash is not exchanged. I am not trying to...
