Today marks four years since Senjutsu was released. Time flew by and I started this thread to hear your thoughts on it after all this time. I still really like it; it's an album that's aged well for me, better than The Book of Souls, for example. I still consider Stratego, TWOTW, The Parchment...

Yes, I understand. It's just that, considering their age and the fact that Nicko has already stopped touring, I really regret that they don't focus all their creative energy and time on new Maiden albums. But then again, they don't seem all that concerned about it.

But doesn't he enjoy even more recording a new Maiden album?! I really don't understand this.

No, please. British Lion is awful. Why would Steve spend time and energy, at this point in his career, recording a non-Maiden album?! I know he relies on the agreement and collaboration of others, and Adrian and Bruce seem to enjoy their solo careers more than we'd like, but he could definitely...

This news shook me more than I imagined. Ozzy is a legend, one of the greatest icons in rock history. It's crazy to think that without him, much of what we listen to and love simply wouldn't exist. Thanks for everything, Madman! RIP.

Oh, man, that would have been really awesome.

That's what I think too. In fact, Martin is my second favourite vocalist of Sabbath, just below Dio, despite being Ozzy the most iconic of all, ofc. Headless Cross is brilliant, in quite the same level of Sabbath's most classic albums, and Tyr, Cross Purpose and Eternal Idol are great.

I think they were still on the top until LOTB part 1, in 2019. LOTB part 2 was clearly the beginning of the end, for me. I remember feeling sad during the show I've been to in 2022, when I realized how much the band's performance had worsened compared to 2019.

Seventh Son. That was easy for me: Seventh Son is always on my top 2, while AMOLAD never really catched me. It's a great album, ok, but I just can't see it as a masterpiece, as many of the members here consider.

The X Factor, for sure. Sign of the Cross is a masterpiece, Man on the Edge is one of their best short-rockers, Lord of the Flies and The Edge of Darkness are great ones and, in general, all the songs have something special, such as beautiful melodies and good lyrics. It's an album that I easily...

The Angel and The Gambler The Apparition The Age of Innocence The Man Who Would Be King Gangland The Great Unknown I didn't think too much. Probably, in other days, some other songs would make it to the list, but these 5 above certainly are in my top 10 of the worst ones, so that's it. Just...

Bruce may not read this, but this is surely the best performance of Aces High I've seen since 2019!

Donington 88 and Rock In Rio 2001.

I completely agree. There is no excuse for Aces High to be played as the opening song for the encore again. This is one of the biggest mistakes the band has made in their entire career, it is simply unacceptable. In fact, it borders on the unbelievable. How can musicians of this caliber not...

It's incredible how football has changed and how some traditional teams have failed to adapt to the modern game. Italy is the best example, but our Brazilian team here also fails to combine its traditional identity with the tactical demands of the new times. I hope that Carlo Ancelotti, our...

We all love Nicko here. And precisely because of that, there is no reason to subject him to something he can no longer do: play at his usual level. The stroke unfortunately cut his career short, and if the band decided to move on without him, then let it be done in full: with Simon as the new...

Oh, I didn't get it, hahaha! No problems, man.

I know it serves its purpose, with the bass solo and everything, giving a good atmosphere for Big Eddie. But I simply don't find the song funny anymore. It's certainly the most boring classic for me. In fact, the only really boring one, since I like all the others.

I couldn't agree more. Iron Maiden, the song, is the more overated and overplayed song in metal history!

The first one, with No Prayer early in the set and Running Free opening the encore would be great and more likely than the second, imo, 'cos the last 6 songs (encore included) are clearly aimed to the casual fans, being a sequence of classics (my wife, which is a casual, liked specially the last...
