    At The Iron Maidens’ Sydney show my mate was totally besotted with Davina Murrays’ looks. She is very attractive but I was more besotted with the way she mastered Dave’s solo from Alexander The Great.

    Legacy of the Beast Tour 2018 - CONTAINS SPOILERS

    It’s one of the best non-soundboard recordings I’ve ever heard. Every instrument is clearly audible alongside Bruce’s vocals and there is no disturbing crowd interference. Quite incredible really. And the Sign Of The Cross error makes it a unique addition to the library.

    It's a great recording. Thanks Trav. Here is a non-torrent link I found on guitars101.com: http://www.guitars101.com/forums/f145/iron-maiden-2018-06-01-stockholm-616105.html

    Saw The Irons Maidens last night at Manning Bar in Sydney. A great setlist including The Duellists and Alexander the Great. Singer Bruce Chickinson told a story of how Steve and Bruce came to see The Iron Maidens in Mexico City a few years back and were blown away by their rendition of Alexander...

    Legacy of the Beast Tour 2018 - CONTAINS SPOILERS

    The Clansman sounds incredible on this tour. William Wallace will rise from his grave and revolt if this song is not chosen as the national anthem when Scotland becomes independent. On youtube the three epics look and sound immense...FTGGOG, The Clansman and SOTC. Great choices for the tour.

    Legacy of the Beast Tour 2018 - CONTAINS SPOILERS

    I literally feel a lot of love for this setlist. The return of Flight of Icarus after more than 30 years feels like the reuniting with a long lost family member. Welcome home little buddy! Seeing Where Eagles Dare, The Clansman, For The Greater Good Of God and Sign Of The Cross in the setlist...

    Legacy of the Beast 2018 Tour

    Wrathchild gets a hard time. In conjunction with The Ides Of March it’s in their top 5 album openers after Caught Somewhere In Time, If Eternity Should Fail, Sign Of The Cross and Aces High. Please don’t blame the song for being overplayed, that’s the bands wrongdoing. Should have been a single...

    Thanks matic22, it was me.

    Losfer Words (Big 'Orra)

    It's a fun song. I've always been curious about how it would sound as a non-instrumental and so have mixed in some of Bruce's vocals from Powerslave. Welcome to the 9th track of the album...Lost Words Found (Powerslave II). https://thewhicheverowl.bandcamp.com/track/lost-words-found-powerslave-ii

    For the Greater Good of God

    Oh yeah, and no slow intro or outro.

    For the Greater Good of God

    I’ve always considered this song to be the title track of A Matter Of Life And Death even though the two names bare no resemblance apart from the word “Of”. It is an epic, immense song and perhaps may have been considered a “classic” if it had been written 20 years earlier. Speaking of...

    Save ten albums!

    Hi folks, I’ve been at a classical music refugee camp for the last month. It’s been a fabulous time, especially the performance of Elgar’s Cello Concerto in E Minor, but every evening my heart bled a little because I could hear metal music faintly emanating from the other side of the mountains...

    Russian Circles are an incredible 3 piece with a massive sound...saw them a couple of years ago. Memorial is the album to go for as an introduction. Headphones on, lie back and enjoy the ride... Oh, this is an Opeth thread? I saw them last night at the Sydney Opera House. They played for 3...
