    X factor : album de l'année 95 en France

    Je voulais juste ajouter que ceux qui critiquent la production devrait écouter l'album avec un set étalonné pour de la musique classique. C'est simplement hallucinant. C'est beaucoup plus subtil que les albums compressés au maximum. Cheers

    X factor : album de l'année 95 en France

    Biff, ce n'est pas une erreur d'impression: Maiden a du recourir à ce stratagème pour que certaines chaines de magasin de disques puissent éviter de montrer la couverture jugée trop extrème... Par ailleurs, je dois dire que je considère TXF non seulement le meilleur album de 1995, mais sans...

    'Numbers From the Beast': give it a shot !

    I've been listening to that new tribute we've been talking on the Maidenfans.com news: 'Numbers From the Beast'. It's honestly very good. Tribute usually do not rank high in my taste, but this one stands out (well, it could have been expected for the musicians are excellent on this one). Not...

    Bruce and Adrian

    When it was announced that Bruce and Adrian were rejoigning the band in 1998, I was in an ecstatic mood. In 1992, I had a T-shirt printed out as a tribute to Bruce Shows how much attached I was to him in Maiden. But, back then, I wasn't prepare to get a slap in face: in 1995, The X-Factor was a...

    The Americans

    I wish more administrations would at least offer their help, even if symbolic. The US governement donated 50000 USD to the Swiss governement for relief after the floods the country recently underwent. Switzerland can handle the situation itself and needs no help. But the little gesture was a...

    The Americans

    This is very good. I've yet to hear a country offering disaster relief. Japan was offered many when the Kobe earthquake struck, for instance. So yes, I'm confident the US can deal with it themselves, but an offer from another country, if only as a sign of good will, wouldn't hurt anyone. Cheers

    Beslan tragedy

    I'm not sure Putin was behind it at all. But even if he was, he would have wanted a clear and glorious intervention to heighten his international stature. Not what happened, which might only have attracted more ennemies than friends in the international community and press. Cheers

    The "Ozzfest Incident"

    The full interview (now on the news page) is amazingly pathetic. I think commenting on her becomes useless. Read it and you'll all see (I've highlighted some extracts for those bored the read the full stuff). Cheers

    Sharon seems interested to drag this incident on for ages (read the news)... Whatever. Cheers

    Total Rock's Take on Iron Maiden

    It's not really news, so I put this article here: Whilst many rock historians may debate the origin of the first ever metal mission statement (some new-wave analysts are adamant that Metallica’s Kirk Hammet is ultimately responsible, for example), TotalRock has silently, perhaps even...

    Where did my post go?

    Hello, if you posted it early Monday morning (Europe time), it could have been lost as we had still issues with the new server. I lost a bunch of posts too. [!--emo&:(--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/sad.gif\' border=\'0\' style=\'vertical-align:middle\' alt=\'sad.gif\'...

    Farewell

    Since Sean Connery actually got back as James in 1983, there's some hope you might be back earlier than expected. Seriously though, I'm sorry to see you go, as you were certainly a valuable member of this community. You'll be missed. I sincerely hope the best for you. Pura vida. Cheers

    References to Maiden

    I've been registering these occurences for some years now (it will appear on Maidenfans.com soon enough), but here and on the Maiden BB, it's pretty much the same references that come over and over again [!--emo&:D--][img src=\'style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/biggrin.gif\' border=\'0\'...

    Biographie du groupe traduit en francais

    Un truc que je voulais te dire depuis un petit moment, Mav: sur cette page tu fais l'éloge d'un groupe qui sait s'adapter à son temps par l'utilisation des nouvelles technologies. Pour autant, la phrase qui dit que Maiden a été l'un des premiers groupes à avoir un site officiel devrait être...

    Info missing about Trooper single Bsides

    Well, let's see, first there was the promo single. Then Sanctuary did leave the various national distributors release the release or not. And now, they're announcing it as a worldwide release. They've not been very clear from the beginning. Is this worldwide release an afterthough ? Difficult...

    Reflexion sur "Le téléchargement payant"

    Sans entrer dans le débat maintenant, je voudrais juste ajouter que ce sont toujours les labels qui semblent s'en mettre pas mal dans les poches. En effet, en ce qui concerne le Apple iTunes Music Store, il est de notoriété que Apple gagne moins de 8 centimes de USD par morceau vendu .99 USD...
