If it's anything like what happened with TBOS, then the real leak should be around Friday this week. Back in 2015 I remember seeing it on Reddit first around August 28 and then rushing to the forum.

Guitar lesson Stratego on youtube Curious to know how many of you can hear the riff H is playing over Dave's gallop in E (6.53 on the video)? I had to customize my EQ on my headphones to fully hear it.

Yes I love the addition of keyboards too and do hope there is more of it in the album. Also love how epic the drums sound on the first two release

Have to say that the more I listened to Stratego the better the mix sounded in my ears compared to day 1

I have a dumb question on the pronunciation. Is it strate "go" or "joe". I saw YT videos pronouncing it both ways

I do not disagree with anything you said. Whatever I say here will always be my own views and I do not expect everyone to subscribe to my perspective on things. The definition of a being a Fan is defined as being an admirer/enthusiast of something and hence the point I was trying to make in...

What comes to my mind is El dorado

I think there is a way to get a criticism across without being annoying. First warning sign is when forum regulars start quoting you in exasperation. At the end of the day this is a fan space and it means people prefer positivity and an upbeat atmosphere together with the energy and excitement...

After reading all the reviews below is my prediction of all the songs from most favorite to least. Just wanted to put this out there so that i can come back is revisit once the album is out.

I think it is about finding balance. This is maidenfans forum and therefore your only existance should not be to complain all the time. The positives should outweigh the negatives. I think that is what gets most people annoyed, the incessant complaining on multiple threads on the same thing...

Yeah.. that review is spot on so far!

Hahaha.. so true. There is no musical evolution from the 80s. Priest is what would have happened to Maiden if they had listened to the Powerslave 2 fans on this board.

From the track by track superfan review I realized one thing guys:

I think everyone need to look at their past 30 posts in the forum and see how many posts are positive and how many are negative. I think if your posts are overwhelmingly negative then you should really do a self reflection on what the hell you are doing in a maidenfans forum. One or two gripes...

People have the right to listen to an album they bought however they like. If somebody asked for my opinion, I would say don't second guess the artist and just follow the order of the album. Otherwise, to each his own and all I have to say is cheers and enjoy Senjutsu!

My plan is to not get burnt out on stratego and twotw by limiting how many times i listen to it. Even though I only played the songs once in the last 24 hours, I have been playing the Stratego riff on the guitar all day long. Damn it! :facepalm:

That is why i said that it could be on par with BNW. Rainmaker i think came after album was released

What slightly worries me is that some of album reviews complained about the same thing in parts of the whole of the album. However, i believe the strength of the songs will overcome any issues with sound just like Stratego overcomes this as a song. We will probably have to tweak our sound...

The strength of the 1st two released songs already puts it on par with any of the best Book of Souls and TFF Songs. Keeping in mind Maiden would never release their best stuff prior to the release of the album, I think Senjutsu will easily surpass BOS and TFF and most likely be on par with BNW.

Wow your impression of the mix is the exact opposite of mine. I found WOTW mix to be so much better than Stratego. Stratego rhythm guitars sounded muddied and Bruce in the verse sounded burried in the mix
