Big physical Eddie in the background with an extended arm, holding a huge heart above the band. During the Losfer Words/Big Orra´part of BOS, Eddie squeezes the heart and blood is pouring on the band, Slayer-style! :shred:

I like your interpretation! But I don't know if you mean that in a positive or negative way?

This is indeed interesting news! I'll be following the development in the US from my cottage in the dark cold Scandinavia.

Sweden's biggest newspaper gives BOS 4/5 http://bloggar.aftonbladet.se/musikbloggen/2015/09/en-overlyxigt-lacker-plusmeny-att-sluka-till-sista-smulan/

Go buy a new CD player, cause clearly, yours is broken!

If not, I guess you could start it yourself, right?!

I will tell you what I mean (I'm no musician). A hook could be a riff, a particual rythm, a passage that "hooks" you into the music. In the case of BOS, I will write some of these down: 1. The way Bruce emphasize the ending of the some words in IESF: "illusioNNNN", "delusioNNN" etc. 2. The...

It's funny, because this time it was the complete opposite for me. After my first listen, I was totally blown over (the somewhat cheesy post with me in actual tears would work as proof of that - but I stand behind it. I had also had a few glasses of wine so my emotions were probably riding my...

Please do real-time updates in this thread with your impressions during your first listen. All of you! I kind of wish I was doing it all over again, but at the same time, my body still shakes like it was last friday every time I start a new session.

Yes, I know how to google, thank you. I can't seem to find a reasonable connections between the guy you mention and the one who is formed of the dead and the harvester of souls. I don't think you should take it literally (like most lyrics) I think it makes perfect sence to personify a city to...

Yes, of course. It's all clear as water. But I find it funny how he twice refers to something that he clearly misheard, and even tries to make a point with that misunderstanding as a sole base.

This guy seems so certain that it's "Nicopolis" that he elaborates with a whole paragraph about it. I too thought Bruce said Nicopolis first but it doesn't make sense. Necropolis it must be. This guy must have reviewed the leak. Could someone please confirm what the lyrics say in the booklet?

Yes, yes, yes! Is this mad?? Never in my life did I think something in this day of age would be able to match something like powerslave, sit or ssoass. This beast is definitely there, and I am actually starting to think it will top them all. That's an equation even Stephen hawking would have...

This is what somebody on the iron Maiden subreddit said :

Is this the best track on the album?!! I don't know, I seem to get a new favourite for every day that goes by.

Well, I don't know how ya'll do your rating, but I do my measures in goosebumps, and after two days my skin still curls like a newly picked chicken for each spin. I could pick out at least 20 spots on this record where that happens. That's why I listen to metal and that's why the boys are at the...

Eternity 10/10 Great Unknown 10/10 Red and Black 10/10 Souls 10/10 Shadows 10/10 Empire 10/10t Yes, we all have our tastes, but If I was able, I would give you what I was feeling. Cause it's the greatest fucking feeling ever!

Agreed. Of course, it's way to soon to make any final judgements but I am sure it will stand the test of time and I am beginning to think that this in the future will be up there with the golden era classics. There simply aren't any bad tracks on this one, and pulling out individual bits from...

Bruce shines on every song on this record, but maybe his singing on this takes the grand prize! It is otherworldly to say the least, and I cannot believe that he is able to get to that level in his day of age.

This song really puts the tone of the whole album: it's very serious and sincere. It's like Bruce is pointing the finger at you and says "listen up, I'm talking to you, I have something to say and you better pay attention!".
