Saxon springs to mind. Ok they aren’t as big as Maiden but they’re a lot older (biff is 73 and still singing well) and they do big tours and play some decent sized venues. They’ve released 10 studio albums during Maidens reunion years (roughly every 2 years) compared to Maiden releasing 6.

Give it rest will you. How many more times can you keep going about accepting other people’s opinions, it’s getting very boring now. As a few others have said, whether you like run to the hills or you think it’s total garbage that’s the subjective part. One man’s treasure is another man’s trash...

Nonsense calling RTTH filler. As has been pointed out it was the lead single released over a month before the albums release. Fine if someone hates the song and thinks it’s shit, just use another term to describe it. Filler songs are where a band needs one or two extra songs to fill out an...

You’re right, I guess hate was too strong a word. I guess I can accept, but disagree, if someone thinks NOTB is overrated but then you yourself went on to trash the album saying its full of filler and has 3 of maidens worst 80’s songs! If that’s your opinion fine it’s all subjective but that’s a...

I can’t speak for the rest of the world and remember this was pre internet days too but, Maiden to me seemed massive in the UK in the first half of the 1990’s. The chart positions for both NPFTD and FOTD albums and their singles were very high plus I remember they seemed to be in all the music...

I don’t agree, there’s no need for any sort of statement from Simon or anything else about his appointment from the band or management. It’s been said by the band already that Nicko is still very much involved and that Simon is only a touring drummer (for now). If plans change and he does...

I don’t think you’ve fully grasped what I’ve been trying to say. I totally get that people might not like NOTB and prefer other albums, I’ve even said it’s not in my top 5 maiden and there’s plenty of other albums that I prefer. My question was, even if you don’t like the album is it really an...

I don’t even know what hate keep means, don’t spend enough time on online forums to understand the online vernacular. I’m fully aware that peoples opinions are different and subjective. My post was simply asking why is NOTB trashed so much as I’ve seen and heard loads of people trashing it of...

I think when Blaze joined Maiden there was a combination of him being super nervous about fronting a massive band like Maiden and having to fill the shoes of a legendary vocalist plus I bet Steve and Rod gave him very specific instructions on what to do which in wolfsbane he wasn’t used too. I...

Is it popular these days for so called “hardcore maiden fans” to rubbish NOTB? I’ve seen this quite a bit over the last few years were long term Maiden fans have been slating the album and saying it’s massively over rated with tons of weak tracks. In my opinion NOTB doesn’t even get into my...

I got into Maiden when NPFTD was the current album so the FOTD album was the first new release album for me. Being from the uk Maiden were still huge in their home country and there was a lot of buzz around the band. I know both NPFTD and FOTD get a lot of criticism as albums but at the time of...

No Steve no Maiden, simple. No point even discussing it as we’re never gonna an incarnation of the band without Steve. I think if Steve says he’s ready to hang up Maiden for good the rest of the band would respect him enough to just agree. I could never see anyone saying “well I want to carry...

I have a strong feeling that Infinite Dreams and Still life will be on the set list. These are the big songs outside of Alexander the Great, that fans have been calling for since they were left off the Maiden England revival tour back in 2013. I also think Only the good die young will make an...

This is it. All releases since 2015 are all from the hi res digital remasters done in 2015. Anything released since 2015 is just a re release and will be the remaster from 2015.

The 2015 remasters were the last batch of remasters to be released on CD. As far as I’m aware these are the latest versions of the albums currently available. I may be wrong but I thought the last vinyl re releases came out before 2015.

lol, Steve’s pub band has recorded 2 albums and toured the world following iron maiden. Don’t think joes career offers him more than that at the moment.

Jesus it was only an idea, calm down buttercup :facepalm:

I wonder if Joe could step into British lion as the drummer now Simon has moved over to Maiden? This could mean Joe gets to play with Steve and they can see how they gel whilst Simon covers for 2025 and if all goes well with Joe in BL then he then takes over from Simon in Maiden in 2026. That...

Please, that’s a little dramatic isn’t it. Can’t believe so many people are up in arms about this and being quite disrespectful. Look,Simon is a professional drummer who’s played with Steve for more that 12 years. The rest of Maiden are all pros so I’m sure they can all play iron maiden songs...
