I Live My Way is fun live. All TXF songs bring like a unique vibe and all are good imo, for their approach, style or whatever. Not full concert though, Judgement Of Heaven is missing. Blaze is doing well, the songs are still not easier for him though. Why the B-sides weren't included on the...

Turbo and SWOD is an odd combo, but at least it will be something different and it's better than taking a year off. Maybe just for 1 year and the new album will be released in 2028? (or 2027 if they're ready since the ideas are a lot, but Ian said they are in no rush). Turbo is a great combo...

Iirc, live releases were planned from 2007, 2013 and 2005? Notable live releases from tours (live albums, videos) that we still need: more stuff from 1980 & 1981 tours (or maybe Rainbow and Maiden Japan are their only footage). full BOH video (even if darker). 1983 tour. Hammersmith 1984. LAD...

^How do we know this? They announced 2 dates, interesting. It looks like they'll write and record on the road again. Probably one of their most curious choices of a new tour theme for next year then, brand new one for 2 years (another hybrid?) or like a (atypical for them) 3rd year of IS, let's see.

Interesting to think about it, let's see: Transylvania: from the debut every song is popular more or less, but this is pure Maiden, one of their best instrumental ideas. Purgatory: as a 2nd single and being basically a catchy speed metal song, I don't think it gets the attention it deserves...

Isn't the next tour a new album tour with a break in 2026 for writing? Shield Of Pain Tour to continue? Isn't it like a 2nd leg of the IS Tour? Ram It Down is not easy, but they will manage it. Reckless studio vibe (Rob's vocals, agreed with your other examples) is tricky to replicate live...

Judgement Day is very good live, as expected. They even added a new harmony after the solos! I like this feature, it fits so well.

2013 is weak for me. Sacrifice - classic and heavier NWOBHM, what's not to like. It's a consistent album of theirs, a couple of the songs are weaker, but the overall material is solid. Battle Beast - their style and vocals are very likeable, this album's style is classic metal/WASP. I would...

The choices (popular, deep cuts, songs to return) from all eras are still quite a few:

I like that Adrian said Nicko is still part of the band, he and Simon are on good terms. They all know he is very important. ''Keep the music alive, bigger than us'' is a bit worrying, I hope they won't replace any more members. The band to be successful without Nicko suggests continuing, right.

Very nice to finally see Janick's rig, for the last tour was only Adrian. Dave still carry the cream Strat, but is now a deep backup (like the birthday Strat). It wasn't even presented. I wonder if he, besides Adrian ofc, can bring something different/new for next year or in the future. FOTD's...

^Yes, but at the same time I want hear Richie's takes of these solos.

https://blabbermouth.net/news/richie-faulkner-on-judas-priests-painkiller-album-the-guitar-playing-on-that-record-is-stunning The guitar playing on Painkiller is truly top Priest and impactful. Songs Richie wants to play on the next tour: ''Reckless'' (they rehearsed it in 2014), ''Eat Me...

Now that's not cool imo. Maiden is always about full albums and covers. Release new stuff without making proper albums? What, EP or just songs? I can't see that. I mean, that's so disappointing to hear and so un-Maiden. And Steve says he has lots of ideas, so what's the matter...

Extra Tiebreaker is right. +1 for Candlemass - Ancient Dreams
