The album is actually from 2001, so "Painting on the Wall" isn't even a reference to "Writing on the Wall". Also interesting: "Fates Warning" is not only an Iron Maiden song from the No Prayer for the Dying album, but also a band that sounded a lot like Iron Maiden in the 80s. They had a song...

Just found Edguy: Mandrake (not a joke, this really exists). - The cover reminds me of Accident of Birth. - Songs: Tears of a Mandrake, Jerusalem, All the Clowns, Fallen Angels, Painting on the Wall Do we run short of names?

Nicko had a stroke in January. Incredible that he's able to tour again! This probably also explains why he simplified a couple of drumming parts (SiT before the solo, Trooper intro).

I'd start with The Nomad, it has the right vibe for a China.

This is the version I got acquainted to back in 2003. I remember playing that song in the car of my superior apprentice once. Unlike me, he already went to a Maiden concert, and said that he totally loves the song. The audience was totally into it back in that version.

Nicko had cancer.

I got a shipping notice yesterday evening, so albums must be floating around out there.

I need a release date now, so that I can schedule the date on which I have to open the "Studio Album #18 Rumours" thread on time.

So, numerology it is.

Says who? The "Prophet Daniel Belshazzar" or the "King Nebuchatnezzar's Son King Belshazzar"?

I guess this was the main dish. The song is going to be played on the next leg of the Legacy of the Beast tour. Maybe they'll bring a matching backdrop to be re-used for the actual album tour. But the album won't be announced any time soon, probably Bruce's going to tell the audience during the...

How is the album going to be called? "Belshazzar's Feast"? "Writings on the Wall"? "Wrath of the Waters"? "Warriors of the World"? To be fair, the actual Bible passage (Book of Daniel) is also a bit strange when it comes to naming things. First, Daniel and three of his pals get kidnapped in...

I keep on reading about something happening on Monday. Where does that come from? Rumor, announcement, numerology?

"Performed by Iron Maiden"? Everything of that is a reference to Judas Priest! The motorcycles, the four horseman (Nostradamus) ;-)

Fates Warning is also the name of a progressive metal band, and their band leader, Jim Matheos, looks like Steve Harris.

The face of Iron Maiden is Eddie, and Nicko McBrain looks the most like Eddie among all the band members by far.

OK, so it is a fake. But discovered a new band in the process!

Yes, it reminds me of Clive Burr's drumming style, he often played such parts...

The first track sounds quite "back to the roots" to me. The second sounds more like recent material. I like both.

Is this real?
