"Kin hell 'Arry, you finished my drum parts yet or what?"

If you compare TXF and Virtual XI to the Bruce albums before and after the 90s albums then the Bruce albums nearly always win in a landslide. It's just that No Prayer and Fear are quite weak so that the Blaze albums have a fighting chance. I still quite enjoy all their 90s stuff anyway.

It's not sympathy. It's that TXF has probably the best collection of songs of any of these albums, sadly hindered by the production

I black Sabbath

Simply has to be a 10. Harris was a genius in his time.

Solid 7. Some corking live versions of this from 1995

I will protect Futureal with my life. My miserable pathetic life.

They ever opened a show with The Trooper before?

Virtual XI has some lovely melodies, instrumental sections and solos. Just Nicko phoned it in, Harry needed reigning in with the choruses and repetition on lots of the album, and Blaze needed a few more takes on some of the songs. Blaze has said that whilst the X Factor production dragged for...

I've got a huge soft spot for the blaze albums and they have their best 90s song on them by far I think, apart from FOTD and ATSS. However they are so flawed I am not sure if I can say they are the best. The FOTD album is so full of filler but it's nice enough to listen to. I might actually...

Unusually riffy for Maiden and I love it. I enjoy the lyrics and the drumming too.

Blaze has the audience sing the strikes twice part live nowadays

"That'll show em!"

It's been years since I've heard that song. I don't recall that Oh yeh listening now, I still think bruces voice was crazy impressive

Blaze talking about the unsingable chorus

It's funny, X Factor probably has better songs overall but the production is so awful. Virtual's production is terrible as well but I much prefer the brighter, synthy sound of this album. Kind of wish X Factor sounded more like Virtual. Anyway this is probably Blazes best performance on a...

Which of these two instances of abject cruelty towards the vocalist by a certain bass player is your preference?

Yeah it's funny, if I have a Maiden album on in the background and it's playing a weaker song like The Apparition.. the middle solo sections etc are nearly always great and I always remember them.

Seventh Son is a perfect album

The new short songs still never match up to The Wicker Man and Futureal.
