For an album ten years in the making, it doesn't really feel like he's spent much time making it. It just feels so rushed. Almost as if he's gone into the recording booth, did one take of the vocals, and called it a day.

Fingers in the Wound might be the only track on the album I can see myself revisiting on a regular basis, maybe Shadow of the Gods.

To be fair, it hasn't been played in 7 years. That's like 30 in Wrathchild years.

FTTB cuts into precious pub time.

I'm lucky to have seen Blaze perform this acoustically in a tiny record shop in Wolverhampton a few years ago. Absolutely haunting, such a beautiful song. For some reason, I don't see this is as a Maiden song, I see it as a Blaze song. He just owns it whenever he plays it solo.

I had a thought when I was looking at tickets for AC/DC. Standing tickets for Wembley are now £300 each, thanks to Ticketmaster's dynamic pricing. The last time I was at Wembley Stadium for a gig, that was for Roger Waters doing The Wall in 2013, and my standing ticket was £65 (which was worth...

The thing is with Blaze, compared to Bruce, is that there's less expectation with a new Blaze Bayley album. So you can sort of listen to a new single expecting a nice song, rather than being blown away by it. That's where we've all found ourself with The Mandrake Project, expecting a metal...

I can almost guarantee that 80% of people who have people who have bought tickets to the tour would be like "Roy who?". They've bought tickets to see Bruce, at the end of the day. That's not to diminish Roy's importance of course, but it's not his name on the ticket.

I adore The Man of Sorrows. Davey, my sweet angel, write more songs.

"Birds are alright ya know! Maybe they should have the vote!"

£145 for standing?? Dirty deeds aren't done cheap after all.

Empire of the Clouds with a keytar solo is the only possible option.

Me: Mum can we have a new Slayer song? Mum: We have a new Slayer song at home. The new slayer song at home:

I like it. I'm a fan of the theatrics, Bruce's performance, and Roy's solo. But is it me is the production really bad, at some points the vocals sound like a demo. Still a better song than Ragnarok though.

I understand if you're releasing a video for the gig to release it if a performance isn't up to scratch because of all the expenses involved in filming it. But if you're only releasing an album, there's no excuse. They record every gig anyway, so just pick a gig where the performance is top...

As long as the songs are good, I can overlook a mish mashed half cooked concept.

I absolutely adore this song already, particularly the chorus and the solo. Panic Attack is still my favourite, but this album is shaping up to match Firepower already in my eyes.

I'm the same this year, I feel like I burnt myself out last year with the amount of gigs I went to. It felt like every single band I listen to went on tour. I currently only have three booked. 13/1 - Bring Me the Horizon, AO Arena, Manchester 10/2 - Evil Scarecrow, Rock City, Nottingham 2/4 -...

There's nothing directly from Bruce in the interview that suggests that a new Maiden album is on the cards after TFP tour, looks maybe a passing comment by Bruce, not included in the interview, has maybe been editorialised by the interviewer. Wouldn't surprise me if there's been talks within...
