Land Of The Free II - it's not like their golden albums, but it's solid enough. And ofc, quality stuff and style. For me, it contains 2 or 3 of their best songs. I only really like the first 3 songs from Dark Passion Play (the bonus song Escapist was needed as an album regular). Paradise Lost...

Bruce really likes SFV. It's so odd to hear his vocals on a Priest song. Nice. I liked it. Maybe it's because of Bruce's (quite) movement during the show? Or because of the trips to SA, like in recent years. Some keytar solos fit (I love the one in Accident), but I agree about Laughing. It's...

https://www.ironmaiden.com/infinite-dreams-special-editions-available-to-pre-order/ Special edition with RFYL tour poster art as a casecover. I've always wanted such a book from Maiden - but tbh, not having its own unique cover art with Eddie/s (full of details) is not good at all and a big...

I actually like all Maiden albums, more or less, so my bottom 5 is meaningless to me. Piece Of Mind/The Final Frontier X Factor Iron Maiden No Prayer Killers I really like TXF, POM is classic, the debut is class, TFF has some strong stuff.

Yet another single (what, half of the album now) from Dirkschneider & The Old Gang - Babylon, the title track. It's something different from Udo, a longer song with ancient sounds. The main riff is cool, the female vocals fits very well, Mathias' solo too, Udo is doing a good job, but overall...

Happy Birthday @LooseCannon @dmort93 @Shavasku @Lamia020281 @HMSBaz :hbd:

Good performance and surprisingly good sound. Better than Maiden's recent, especially the drums. Afterglow is class. Odd. He said he was going to play Revelations at least in Brazil (the crowd loved Flash Of The Blade, but) and even mentioned it would be a full show. It was 10 songs, Bruce said...

Moonflower Society is a good album, quite enjoyable one. Kiske's voice is indeed still like in the 80's, so awesome. I think he did much less touring since then, so that should have had an impact too.

Interview with Mistheria from Brazil It seems he has a big freedom to come up with keyboard parts for Bruce's solo stuff. Expected and right. For TMP even more so because of the experimental vibe. He called the tour with Bruce the best one for him. Working on The Mandrake Project was fantastic...

Yep: Futureal - pure 80's melodic Maiden rocker. Angel And Gambler - a 70's prog rock like. Lightning - hard rock from the 90's. Clansman - true Maiden epic with acoustics, Celtic melodies and calm parts. Worlds Collide - classic Maiden feel and trademark gallop. Educated Fool - mid-tempo...

Why are you comparing two quite different bands, one of which is legendary musicians? The general opinion is that the band sound great live, they have to prove themselves in the studio now. Big and not easy task. We weren't even sure if Nicko would be at a Maiden show this year, let alone a solo...

So VXI is a creative album after all. :p

1.Brave New World 2.Senjutsu 3.Somewhere In Time 4.A Matter Of Life And Death 5.Virtual XI (yes I know I can say SSOASS or Powerslave, but melancholic vibes are special to me) I also like DOD, TBOS and TXF a lot.

Maybe it's not quite ready yet, that's why we didn't get a name and a date. We expect it to be longer than 2 hours, right. Wouldn't it be better to release it this year, the year of the anniv. November or December, after next year's dates and the book? Band while on tour? Why? To ask them...

Battle Beast - Angel Of Midnight The new single is pure 80's pop rock (melodies, verses, solo), their trademark, and it's very enjoyable. The chorus brings the needed quality, it sounds like it's from the previous great album. Noora sounds awesome, rule the verses. You can't go wrong with such...

The production is cleaner than TBOS (I like it, it has a fitting sound for the theme), but the pacing to be better? Can't fully agree. I want more faster material overall, but I have no issue with it for the most part (I really like the title track and Darkest Hour). Different moods are key (the...

Makes sense, from the big Brazil show and we need a live teaser from the tour. Like Maiden now, btw. He also mentioned that some songs will continue TMP theme lyrically, so let's see. I really hope he will be inspired by Flash Of The Blade to write at least one solo song in that style. I just...

So true. It's not that easy to pick a favorite crowd participation part, Maiden have quite some. For some reason I've always liked Powerslave one during the main riff, it's so much energy.

I missed Round 1. My votes would have been almost the same, my third pick would have been Stratovarius' Nemesis. Round 2 is much stronger. The ranking is really odd. +3 for BG - Somewhere Far Beyond +2 for Megadeth - Rust In Peace +1 for Asia - Alpha Somewhere Far Beyond is probably nothing...
