    Moderator announcement: post deletion and personal messages

    Well, first I was happy (I had some own troubles with people deleting posts on one of my forums), but Forostar's post calmed me a bit :-) But nevertheless, who cares about the post count, remove the functionality entirely :-) I believe it does not say that a person with a greater post count is...

    Satellite 15.. The Final Frontier

    Re: Satellite 15....The Final Frontier On a slovak IM forum, I have discovered an interesting note: Could the Satellite 15 title (or even the lyrics) be somehow inspired by http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galaxy_15 ? It is a satellite which stopped to respond in April, 2010.

    Janick's view, 11 years later

    Grunge, Blaze, hard to say :-) But does not matter now. Iron Maiden survived that period, that is what is important. The X Factor is one of my favourites and I believe that with Bruce it would be different and I would not liked it that much, because Blaze just fits in this kind of dark music :-)...

    Mission Edition VS. Regular?

    Well, more like "anti-fan measure" :-) surely pissed off many buyers of the limited edition. On the other side, there is still a chance, that they will put a new content on the site for the owners of this edition :-) That would be impossible with a regular bonus (that is DVD), I guess.

    Are you pleased with Maiden's direction?

    I do not care what is the direction as long as I like the result. And with AMOLAD in my top two along with TXF, I have no problems with the current direction obviously. I understand and accept that they are no longer young musicians producing the kind of material as on the first albums. They...

    Final Frontier Mission Edition Extras

    What operating system do you have? I had problems in Linux. Maybe you could try some other computer? At work, some friend's computer...? By DVD recorder, you mean you have a drive which can burn DVDs? Or some external DVD player?Just additional info: it seems that the CD is validated against...

    Any parts of songs that remind you of past songs?

    It seems you're right :-) Well, it has never occured to me on Powerslave, on The Final Frontier, it hit me immediately, could be caused by more concentrated listening, I do not recall listening to Powerslave in such a detail, shame on me :-) Well, I did not meant it as a critique, in fact, would...

    Bonus video PROBLEM with Mission Edition TFF

    I'm really sorry, but I won't share (moral reasons). I just wanted to show an alternative way for those with streaming problems. (And I am glad it actually helped someone.)

    Album production, overall sound - loudness war?

    Yeah, that video would explain why I used to get headaches while listening to BNW. But actually, I do not recall such problems with VXI or DOD. Maybe the video is lying? :-) Well regarding The Final Frontier, my head started to ache after a long listen, but in this case I attribute it to my...

    Any parts of songs that remind you of past songs?

    Some similarity to Paschendale could be found in Isle of Avalon (3:39, chord progression). Some others already mentioned, just interesting, how this album quotes from the past. Would make sense if this would be the last album :-) Well, it is also interesting how it quotes itself - Mother of...

    Bonus video PROBLEM with Mission Edition TFF

    I managed to download the Mission Debriefing video and also the director's cut using Fast Video Download in Firefox. The Mission Debriefing took some five attempts to get complete 105 MB :-) Not yet watched it but I guess it is complete (some 21 minutes).

    Limited Edition of The Final Frontier and Linux

    Well, I tried mounted and unmounted, both failed. It seems there is no special file on the disk, so probably some binary data as you mentioned, Zare. Well, I guess it actually depends on what java can or cannot do regarding the direct access. I guess quite a lot in these days? It seems that the...

    Limited Edition of The Final Frontier and Linux

    Well, I bought it an hour ago, rushed home to check the bonus content and oops: Linux seems not to be supported. So all those without Windows and Mac, beware before purchase :-) Just two questions: 1) Is anybody here with Linux who managed to make it work? 2) Am I wrong to request a support...

    Lyrics on the X Factor

    Well, my luck is that I'm not a native English speaker so I have no troubles to switch off my internal English->Czech translator :-) I do not care about lyrics as long as they are not dumb too much. For me, the music is important, and from the musical point of view, TXF easily gets to my top...

    I wonder what the boys think of their work being leaked......

    I heard of another: the new album is already delivered to shops - probably to ensure a smooth start on the official release date. So there is no reason for someone in such a shop not to unpack, listen, grab and upload :-)

    What's so great about Killers?

    I think I like both albums with Paul, just Killers a bit more. I actually like IM's a bit raw sound and Transylvania and Strange World are my favorites from this album, but Prodigal Son, Purgatory... even Drifter is great. I like the build-up at the album's end (1998 reissue) starting with...

    I wonder what the boys think of their work being leaked......

    Well, I confess, I downloaded it. But I strongly believe that I will buy it. I take it as saying thanks to a band I like. Hell, even Satellite 15 is enough to justify the money - it is so strange, new and interesting :-) Well, it is nice to support a favourite band (as I did recently with a...

    lets discuss some underrated tunes.

    Well, there are lots of songs seemingly underrated which I like, and also there are songs praised by many, which I'm not entirely sure of (e. g. Two Minutes To Midnight), but that is just my weird musical taste :-) For example - The Unbeliever - this seems to be so underrated it has even not...
