    18th Studio Album discussion

    Seriously, it's not like Steve is going to sit down and draw the cover (God help us all if that day ever comes!) lol They'll have a couple of meetings, brainstorm ideas and then approve designs weeks or months later. The entire promotional cycle is going to be a big undertaking, but very little...

    Guess The Iron Maiden Song!

    I was about to give a new clue, but then @damage_case got the right answer! There are a few songs that use a fade-out, Stranger In A Strange Land or Hell On Earth being a couple of them. The interesting thing about The Prophecy? It has two fade-outs in a row! First, the electric guitars/metal...

    Guess The Iron Maiden Song!

    Sorry for the delay folks! Clue #1: There's a certain production technique that was used on a relatively small number of songs throughout Maiden's discography. The song that we're looking for is among those, but it features that technique in an entirely unique way. I'm pretty sure it's the only...

    https://www.gelliottmorris.com/p/polls-show-voters-trust-democrats A new poll shows voters trust the Dems mora than the GOP now regarding the economy. So, with all due respect to Kasparov, but maybe we shouldn't put too much emphasis on a chess GM's take. Turns out celebs aren't necessarily...

    Funny thing: There's not a single person in this entire thread who defends the Democrats, who is satisfied with them or who supports them in their current disarray. In other words this is simply preaching to the choir. I suppose shadow boxing is more entertaining than trying to discuss with...

    Have I ever told you about my time machine?

    It's a great song with one of the most creative (main) verses and chorus in their catalogue. The intro is distinct enough to not come across as another Legacy/Talisman to me, but the Edge Of Darkness lick is kinda blatant. Headcanon time: I don't think the song is about a time machine. I...

    Iron Maiden "S&M" Setlist

    https://forum.maidenfans.com/threads/when-maiden-and-orchestras-collide.72429/#post-1039465 Here's a thread where a cover band had an orchestra play with them. Listen to stuff like RTTH, it doesn't work at all in my opinion. I gave a thorough review in that thread and the video is well worth...

    Iron Maiden "S&M" Setlist

    I've written before about this topic, but I genuinely think that the majority of their catalogue, especially the 80s stuff, is not suited at all to an orchestra. It's a pet peeve of mine when metal bands put an orchestra on top that just mimics the riffs or has the violins shadow the lead...

    Album Cover Art Cup <<WINNER: Bell Witch - Mirror Reaper >>

    Not making any promises, but if no one else is willing I could host the next time. Would be a shame to not repeat it! Gonna listen to Mirror Reaper later in honor of its win.

    Huh, turns out it was never about the hostages. How surprising. Utterly shocking. Not at all in line with the last 80 years of history, no one could've forseen this. There have even been reports about Palestinian corpses being mutilated and their organs robbed by the IDF. That's in addition to...

    No, your point has no validity to it all because it is based on a false premise. Zohran has talked time and time again about how he would do anything in his power to ensure Israelis, Jews and Palestinians living in New York could live safe and peaceful lives. Hamas is absolutely irrelevant...
