I think such a raw sound would have been/is fitting for the likes of TXF and NPFTD, but VXI's bright sonic sound is really fitting for its musical landscape (the same can be said for Killers, TNOTB, Powerslave, SIT, FOTD, BNW, DOD, AMOLAD, TBOS, even TFF and TXF).

The moments where they joke around, the fun interaction between them always brings a smile. At a first thought from RIR 2001: - Bruce standing behind Dave and Janick during the fast instrumental section of Ghost Of The Navigator. - ''Mr. Janick Gers comes to Rio''! - Adrian laughing with Nicko...

Here Bruce says that the new album is kind of stand-alone, he also adds that he is not digging into Mandrake, but he thinks Mandrake has a life now on a comic book level, you don't need to associate music with it unless it's a really good idea. That's a curious thought. As for the new album: 1...

Bruce suggests guitar stuff to Philip - photo from the studio:

TCW is special/unique, Bruce knows it and doesn't want to repeat its style. TOS was the closest, a logical next step like with AOB-TCW. We'll be lucky if the new album has a couple of TCW-style songs, unlike TMP. I would love it. Philip likes heavy riffs. Bruce wants variety now. Let's hope the...

It really does sound like Wolfsbane. Steve going along with Blaze's voice/style of his previous band for starters, kind of like Bruce with Gangland, Janick with Fear Is The Key, and Adrian with 22 Acacia Avenue (Maiden-ized). It would have been a poor choice for a single. But as a single...

I think - Sanctuary, Twilight Zone (instead of Another Life), Total Eclipse (instead of Invaders, although I don't want to lose a fast song), Judgement Day (maybe instead of something like Aftermath/Truth; Justice Of The Peace could have been too), Virus - could easily have been on their albums...

Wow this a gem, this is the first time I've seen live footage of Don't Look To The Eyes Of A Stranger! :rocker: Thank you so much for sharing, I love the song. It works surprisingly well live (it's more atypical to say than Angel And Gambler, both work live, as almost always with Maiden), the...

Hansen - Welcome To Life His 2nd solo single, kind of an atypical choice (maybe because of the style). This is a pure happy GR/HW type of song (disjointed in places) with cool melody, classic GR verses for Kai (love them), fun chorus, nice drumming. The instrumental section is basic...

Definitely, but RIR really helped with that. And a needed more action for Janick. Bruce was also surprised that some fans want to hear it live with his solo band. Indeed. Maybe Steve saw that this is Bruce's preferred use of his voice during this period and tried to fit in, which is something...

Bruce in action during a recording in the studio (no sound though). :cool:

In 2024 Bruce said he would like to try Sonata live, so let's see (it's long). It's curious to hear it. I guess another contender is Rain On The Graves, it would fit. And ofc BTP songs, right. He likes different projects. The date of the event is probably around the time Maiden could enter the...

https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/music/articles/blaze-bayley-iron-maiden-depression-100000746.html Blaze says he wishes ''Justice Of The Peace'' had been on the album. ''Those three songs, it would've been great to have more time to mix them and put them on the record.'' On whether he...

Steve says in a recent interview that NPFTD was influenced by Bruce's debut solo album. Curious to know. Really strong album!!! ''I think it’s a really strong album. At the time, we had gotten so big, with all the grandiose shows, that we were trying to go back to basics a little bit. If I'm...

Steve also defends the Blaze albums, so I'm surprised he didn't suggest to Bruce to play a NPFTD song (and he listened to a song from the album recently, which is a nice info), although he didn't suggest Infinite Dreams either. This tour was the perfect opportunity. This song has no chance.

So Bruce finished the vocals for the new album today. Next up is mixing stage. Recording vocals during a short break from a tour, would it be good... we know he likes to record quickly. The caption also adds that they're saying farewell to the studio, for now. Hmm.

Same. It's odd because of his great new solo band. Agreed. Songs not being fully fleshed out is my main problem with the album. I think Rain is a new sound for him, 70s theatrical rock to say, with a mix in feel of BTP and TCW, I guess. Shadow and Ragnarok's riffing are TCW moments for me...

A surprise. Bring the heaviness! The song with Jorn has a Dehuminazer vibe. The whole song is solid and driven, the chorus has enough melody to work and to go along with the verses and music. Classic-sounding solo, Priest would love the riff. Interesting. Definitely. He didn't say that in...

https://blabbermouth.net/news/michael-kiske-we-already-have-90-of-next-helloween-album-done Great to hear that they are so creative and we can expect the next album sooner. They had too many songs for/from the latest one. Btw, Kiske says here that he could have done the mixes different for the...

B - I'll always want that from Bruce. E would be curious, I wouldn't say no to D if done right. That being said, it would be curious to hear a song in the styles of C and A. As always with his solo stuff, I want very heavy and melodic. Considering the latest album, I want faster material with...
