Review 12 is the first that did not rate The Time machine highly i think

My Top 5 H solos 1. SSOASS . . . 2. Aces High 3. The Prisoner 4. Two minutes to midnight 5. The Wicker man

To me Bruce sounds amazing on every album. His performance on the "The Book of Souls" title track was also insanely good.

They must have gone with the strongest songs regardless of length. Better to have 2/2 amazing short rockers than 2/4. Reviews suggest epics are going to be equally amazing, especially Hell on Earth, Death of the Celts and The Time machine.

Well Stratego is not 100% gallop right? You have that section right after Jan's solo. I totally agree with you that the gallop in El Dorado does't sound as pleasant or mighty. I think the drums and bass in Stratego plays a huge role as well as the use of keyboard. Also Stratego is more...

If it's anything like what happened with TBOS, then the real leak should be around Friday this week. Back in 2015 I remember seeing it on Reddit first around August 28 and then rushing to the forum.

Guitar lesson Stratego on youtube Curious to know how many of you can hear the riff H is playing over Dave's gallop in E (6.53 on the video)? I had to customize my EQ on my headphones to fully hear it.

Yes I love the addition of keyboards too and do hope there is more of it in the album. Also love how epic the drums sound on the first two release

Have to say that the more I listened to Stratego the better the mix sounded in my ears compared to day 1

I have a dumb question on the pronunciation. Is it strate "go" or "joe". I saw YT videos pronouncing it both ways

I do not disagree with anything you said. Whatever I say here will always be my own views and I do not expect everyone to subscribe to my perspective on things. The definition of a being a Fan is defined as being an admirer/enthusiast of something and hence the point I was trying to make in...

What comes to my mind is El dorado

I think there is a way to get a criticism across without being annoying. First warning sign is when forum regulars start quoting you in exasperation. At the end of the day this is a fan space and it means people prefer positivity and an upbeat atmosphere together with the energy and excitement...

After reading all the reviews below is my prediction of all the songs from most favorite to least. Just wanted to put this out there so that i can come back is revisit once the album is out.

I think it is about finding balance. This is maidenfans forum and therefore your only existance should not be to complain all the time. The positives should outweigh the negatives. I think that is what gets most people annoyed, the incessant complaining on multiple threads on the same thing...

Yeah.. that review is spot on so far!

Hahaha.. so true. There is no musical evolution from the 80s. Priest is what would have happened to Maiden if they had listened to the Powerslave 2 fans on this board.

From the track by track superfan review I realized one thing guys:

I think everyone need to look at their past 30 posts in the forum and see how many posts are positive and how many are negative. I think if your posts are overwhelmingly negative then you should really do a self reflection on what the hell you are doing in a maidenfans forum. One or two gripes...

People have the right to listen to an album they bought however they like. If somebody asked for my opinion, I would say don't second guess the artist and just follow the order of the album. Otherwise, to each his own and all I have to say is cheers and enjoy Senjutsu!
