:facepalm: There isn’t going to be a new album :p

these t-shirts look shit :facepalm: :bigsmile: I’ve no problem dropping some coin on something decent but who decided to put the most bog standard Maiden designs that have already been done to death on these stupid oversized throw back to the 1990’s and the grunge era style shirts.

I guess my opinion on a new album comes from being a fan of Iron Maidens since 1991. At the time I became a fan the current album out was NPFTD. My first new album release purchase was fear of the dark, my first live experience with the band was on the x-factor tour in 1995 and since then I’ve...

That is something cool but as much as I love Saxon I’ve never understood why wheels of steel is so revered. It’s a very good album don’t get me wrong but to me it’s got 3/4 amazing tracks and a lot of filler. If you compare it to other albums released in 1980 it doesn’t get a look in. I mean...

True, and I would have liked at least a couple more albums but at least when they did release an album during the reunion they went all in for each release. They created a new branding and marketing strategy for each album, released new merch and did proper album tours playing around 6/7 new...

That’s why I loved the nostalgia tours because you always knew a new album and album tour would follow plus I got to see a ton of songs played live on the nostalgia tours that I either hadn’t heard in a very long time or never before. To truly turn into a cabaret band, and Maiden could easily...

Unless a new album comes out I really doubt they’ll keep touring. They’ve always said they don’t want to be a cabaret band just playing the hits and since the reunion they’ve been very careful to find good themes as an excuse to go out and do a nostalgia tour in between new album tours. This...

A pipe dream I know but I’d love every single studio album to be released as a boxset similar to the Metallica ones. Just put everything in it they have based around each album, demos, live recordings and stick a blu ray in with any and all video footage they have laying around.

And I never said they’d stop playing. My thoughts are this will be the last iron maiden tour. They haven’t called it a farewell tour so they can leave the door open to the odd one off gig and maybe a few headline slots at festivals. With this tour and all other promotions heavily leaning on...

Yes I do. That’s why they chose the drummer they chose. They could have gone with the young buck Joe Lazarus or another more profile drummer. No, instead they’ve chosen a guy nearly as old as them who’s been playing with Steve for more than a decade. This was the obvious choice when a band...

I honestly think we won’t get a new Maiden album. I think most of the band are done. Not with music but they’ve been doing the Maiden thing for a long time now I just don’t think they have the interest in a new album. It’s not just writing a bunch of new songs it’s all the stuff that goes...

Your not wrong at all, just accept that people may disagree with your opinion.

I’ve got all the iron maiden compilation albums but a lot were bought just for the sake of completion for my collection. There not really worth playing, especially now when you can just make up a playlist. The best one for me is my 2disc CD of best of the beast. Mine is the digital book and...

And there’s your problem. It’s 2025 and both times and the fans themselves have changed. There’s a whole generation of metal fans going to concerts that weren’t even born in the 80’s or even in the 90’s. I agree the trooper VIP is a total waste of money, especially when you see VIP offerings...

Yes but the band were likely playing at the O2 which holds a crowd less than a third of the amount going to the London Stadium. Plus most fans would just head to the O2 to grab a beer, only a selection of hardcore fans would make a stop off at the cart and horses first. With over 60k people all...

I would like to check this out at the London gig but with over 60k maiden fans descending on Stratford then I’m guessing this and the cart & horses will be absolutely mobbed so think I’ll give them both a miss. Plenty of other decent bars around the area.

What’s this comment about? You asked a question and it was answered.

Interesting post. I was a massive anathema fan back in the day. Just as my taste in metal was edging towards the more extreme styles along comes the debut albums from the likes of my dying bride and Anathema. These blew my mind and along with paradise lost and decomposed I was totally into the...

I would love to see Rush back on the stage. I wouldn’t want them to do any new music without Neil but a big concert or small tour honouring the Rush and Neil Peart legacy with a guest drummer.

Your probably right, it was the first song that popped into my head when thinking of the whole band contributing.
