I believe he is exceptional on a technical level. On a more personal level, I think the band would benefit from someone who understands the inner workings of Iron Maiden. Joe's father, Steve Lazarus (who, if I'm not mistaken, is Steve Harris's brother), ran the official fan club for about 20...

I recently listened to some of Titanium Tart’s performances from last week. Before the news about the stroke emerged, people were commenting that The Trooper sounded really off. I was hoping it would improve in the 2024 performances, but it still sounds rough: This version is almost as bad as...

While it's true that they are all past the retirement age of 65 and might prefer to keep things as they are, other bands like Judas Priest, Deep Purple, Uriah Heep, and Yes have produced great studio work well into their late 70s with the help of newer band members. Simon McBride, Ritchie...

I'd be fine with them giving Dennis some room for songwriting and arrangements on the first or second album. He had some great songs on Lionheart's Hot Tonight album back in 1984.

I'm surprised to see Maiden go to such lengths to keep their lineup intact. Lackluster performances led to the departures of both Blaze and Paul. The difference in performance since 2022 is staggering, and I would understand if the band decided to bring in a new drummer. The post-1999 lineup is...

Considering 'Firepower' as the paramount metal album of 2010-2019? The studio output from the Faulkner era barely surpass that of the Ripper Owens era. TBOS has some great songs, but is far from as consistent as BOTN.

What would you pick? :)

Exciting setlist! Although somewhat safe, they should do more IS tracks. Andy has really grown into the role image vice. The Faulkner/Sneap combo is working much better than it did during Firepower tour! Would be cool to have a live album from this version of Priest.

Humanoid must be the first Accept single that features three distinct guitar tracks? Probably the best metal album of that decade.

Slayer is back!

Havent you heard them already? Got my Blaze order two weeks ago and Mandrake is all over the internet already..

For me the singles from Blaze (Circle of Stone -> Rage -> Mind Reader) were much stronger than the Bruce Singles (Afterglow - > Rain) and this theme has stayed after listening to both albums. I also prefer the CoS production. Circle of Stone is my preferred album! Will be exciting to see Blaze...

Since we are reaching the release date of Circle of Stone and The Mandrake Project (and alot of people on this forum seems to have heard both already) I thought it would be interesting to see which album people prefer.

Circle of Stone > Afterglow of Ragnarok > Rain on the Graves

Here's the setlist from last nights show: Lord of the Flies Sign of the Cross Judgement of Heaven Fortunes of War Virus Warrior War Within Me Pull Yourself Up When Two Worlds Collide Lightning Strikes Twice The Clansman Como estais amigos Man on the Edge Futureal Cool to have Lightning...

I hope he'll do shows in the US again!

Got tickets for Sala, Huskvarna and Gothenburg!

Blaze is doing his Maiden Anniversary set this spring and summer in Europe! Maybe not the vocalist you had in mind, but it was a while since he had BOTWH in the set so we might be lucky!

Thanks, all March and September dates (expect Austria on Sep 7) are Circle of Stone tour! Also I'm sure the Maiden Anniversary setlist will include 2-3 songs from the new album, just as the Maiden anniversary shows in 2022 featured War Within Me (part of the latest live album) material.
