    NOW PLAYING

    Great song. Chez Kane is an artist/band that sounds so classic 80s, love it. Glam metal at its best, vocals too. I should check all albums, a new favorite. The long harmony on this song is indeed great, pure highlight, best idea for the song and definitely worthy. A real gem! Adrian will like it...

    The Book of Souls: General album discussion

    Reflecting on the album, Eternity and especially Empire are very important songs for it, the latter being like the culmination of everything. I don't think any other Maiden albums has such a strong core of 3 songs (the epics) that are essential, not singles. Maybe SJ, Steve's songs are more...

    Maidenfans Best Albums of the Millennium: 2018

    Already Won has cool harmonies and an impactful chorus that Blaze tries hard for, but his vocals in the verses are not the best. The song starts with the solo!

    Steve and they all prefer touring, they don't want to think about retirement (he says he's scared to slow down), but that doesn't mean they won't release one last album. New music doesn't mean no touring, just more pressure and expectations (stage sets are easier with screens). And Steve doesn't...

    Judas Priest

    ^I didn't know that! It makes sense, the Jugulator sound can be heard, as in the overall mood of Lochness. Judas Rising may be an idea from the mid 80s (whole song, who knows), but it's definitely Pankiller-ized. The fast riffs and tempos are the album's DNA.

    Adrian, Janick and Dave's guitars and Steve's basses

    Niiice. 1983 photo, when Adrian started playing the brown SG live. Probably a studio guitar, never used live(?). It's interesting to see The Three Amigos' studio guitars over the years (not used live). Do we have a full list of them?

    Iron Maiden Album Art Showdown

    With a football theme or a landscape (like in the original art), it works for the overall idea. Like red or orange as a dominant color. With landscape it's like a power metal cover. Me too, great idea. Considering the theme of the song and not to repeat the same idea, they could have done...

    Iron Maiden Album Art Showdown

    Agreed. Given the realms they used for the tour theme, I think NOTD could have been very interesting. Something like - Eddie from the tour (the big one, Trooper, or just the classic one with a costume) wandering/entering 3 worlds, all shown a little in the art in a dungeon probably. Now that...

    Adrian, Janick and Dave's guitars and Steve's basses

    Finally a Janick signature. :) The choice of the guitars is curious - Steve's first bass, Dave's classic Strat from LAD, Janick's main guitar and Adrian's Jackson from ME (white headstock?). Pure 80's, RFYL tour. Plus Dave's new white Strat!

    General Music News

    I enjoy the Hansen & Friends album very much - but it seems like (at least from the snippets so far) this new solo project with his son will be more power metal than it, which from Kai I could listen to forever and I'm happy about. He shared another snippet, a song his son wrote called ''Triple...

    Tour merch, event shirts

    The Christmas Eddie looks really good, quite old school design and face, the colors work great. By Akirant? Will they release a card too? No hints for the future sadly, as 2027 is a break, while next year is the same tour.

    Iron Maiden Album Art Showdown

    It's more of a proper cover than Rainmaker, Speed Of Light, Coming Home, Futureal, Man On The Edge (even), Wasting Love and From Here To Eternity.

    Judas Priest

    Faithkeepers? So only a celebration of DOTF? After the one for Painkiller, their next big classic. Just for 1 year? We'll see, they can release a new album in the next couple of years. Nice colors for the poster (btw, the wings on it could be for SWOD). Richie will finally play Rock Hard Ride...

    Who knows, maybe it's true. Not Bruce though. ^If not new album, then me too. This. Not that I disagree with all, but like with any old band, right. Every single word you said. So I think it's fair of us to expect new music from a band like Maiden. Yes. I just hope they realize how much each...

    Iron Maiden News, Links, and Interviews

    So it's clear they're looking forward and to tour, good to hear it from Rod too. Steve is just amazing. But it's kind of hard to imagine a band like Maiden to continue touring just the classics (less and big shows) with no new music, even with Simon now. How many interesting tour themes/concepts...

    Iron Maiden News, Links, and Interviews

    The new FC mag. RFYL tour is called ''tour of the century'' and emotional. I don't think they've ever said anything like that about a tour, I guess the latter for the previous tour. Some words from Steve, Simon(!) and Rod and (the traditional?) Q&A with Nicko. Let's hope for some interesting...

    Iron Maiden Album Art Showdown

    Agreed, although the original is more interesting. As Rod and Steve have said in old interviews, they just didn't think enough about a cover theme for the album. Run Silent Run Deep would have probably made the best Eddie. The missing water theme for an album cover.
