Hands down TCW. So warm and heavy with fat, organic drum sound.

The main riff is tasty! One of Smith's best. The mid section is great as well.

No2 for me is Lord Of Light, brilliant.

AMOLAD has one of their best songs ever. Brighter than a thousand suns is just perfect.

Dunno but I get the feeling this is going to be a one of a kind album in Maiden's catalogue. I pre-ordered the digibook format from a Greek shop and I can't wait.

No, I am just saying that if you put all the albums in order, the "graphic" looks like that (between albums). One good, the next not so good like the last one (not bad, but inferior).

For me, more or less: IM>K<TNOTB>POM<P>SIT<SSOASS>NPFTD<FOTD>TXF=VIX<BNW>DOD<AMOLAD>TFF<TBOS So, the albums in-between the bold ones are inferior, symmetric coincidence?

You got it all wrong.

It's funny. If you take their albums from the start, one by one, you will see that they begin with a "good" one, the next one is "inferior", the next "superior" and so on... With the exception of the two blaze albums (let's call them both inferior) you will see that this tradition went on in the...

Not exactly. I liked BNW as a whole and AMOLAD most of it. And of course I liked many songs that most people don't care for ( When two worlds collide, the unbeliever, gates of tomorrow, just to mention a few). But as an old fan I found let's call them distractions

Anyway... I can't be the only one to believe that the reunion albums suffer for a number of reasons. But I always have hope for a very good album, so we have a few weeks ahead to find out.

As a loyal fan since 1990, when I first listened to (and bought) NPFTD, I am a strict judge to the band, in a good way because I love them and expect the best.

Is it bad that I expressed my opinion? If I didn't care for the band I wouldn't bother.

I have explained in previous post the reasons I believe Maiden's albums are inferior to those of the golden era (mind you up to FOTD). That being said, I am still a fan and I will always like many songs from the reunion era, despite these "unfortunate" things.

Maybe so... I am sure that many in here can relate though.

We only have to wait... But I am afraid that we will be enthusiastic in the first listens but then forget about it and come back occasionally like with all the other post FOTD albums (with the exception of BNW).

All the reunion albums sold quite well so the band themselves don't really care to change the music direction and other stuff like production etc... The enthusiasm has long gone, so we (the 40+ fans) all know that we cannot get a masterpiece of an album. We just compromise. And the same goes...

How many reviews do we have so far? I know two.

New here, glad to hear your opinions. Long time Maiden fan, as far as I am concerned I will always follow them. Now, for the nea album... Not much to anticipate... in my opinion the reunion albums suffer from 5 things: 1) Bruce's voice, which sounds strained and at times out of key. Why he has...
