Welp, whoever it is, that explains it... Would be cool if it was Dave Murray's solo project but I guess he wouldn't make a guessing game out of something he had mentioned before.

When it comes to Roy I assumed it could be some health issues and I still think it’s the most likely reason. I don’t mean to be insensitive with speculating on his private problems, but there is a video interview from a year ago or so, where Roy seems worryingly shaky despite his coherent...

Rotating setlist seems very likely, so I'm curious if there's going to be a fixed rotation of two setlists or something more spontaneous. The songs that I care about the most are: Accident, Abduction, Chemical Wedding, Book of Thel and The Alchemist and it looks like all of them are pretty safe...

The second setlist is even better than the first one, it has all the songs I wish to see the most. Close to perfect. I much prefer Starchildren over Laughing in the Hiding Bush and Book of Thel is probably my favourite song period, so that's great. I think Book of Thel could take place of the...

This setlist is freaking fantastic. The Alchemist is literally a dream come true for me. Being used to Maiden not debuting previously unplayed tracks, I didn't expect it. Add Book of Thel and I'm totally over the moon. Damn, I think I would piss myself if I went to the gig blind and heard The...

For me it's a good album with 8 songs ranging from great to fine, one "meh" track and one that is a total miss. I'd say it's pretty much Tyranny level overall. The two albums have different strengths but I guess I'll end up enjoying them at a similar level after recency bias goes away. It may...

I wasn't blown away after the first listen, but we'll see how it is after more listens. The video is much better than Afterglow IMO.

Interesting gear related detail at around 23:12. Sounds like Roy could have used some kind of Chemical Wedding tone profiles. It doesn't sound as good from what we've heard, but interesting nonetheless. I'm curious if they went the digital route overall.

I dig the single. I like the vocals, particularly the chorus melody. Blaze sounds great. The instrumental arrangement is a bit simplistic, though, and perhaps doesn't do 100% justice to the overall idea for the song. Looking forward to the rest of the album. The cover is pretty nice, but the guy...

Well said, I agree. Concept aside, the quality of the video is super low and I think there must have been a way to do it more tastefully even on this budget. But I'm happy if he's getting a kick out of realising his vision. On a positive note, I have to say I liked seeing Bruce in the clip...

I think that image could have something to do with a potential video for the single. One week from now!

There’s an image at the bottom of the latest newsletter:

Catching the closest festival gig seemed like the obvious choice for me, but after some thinking, travelling abroad to Berlin seems like an infinitely better idea. I assume he'll be able to play at least one or two more songs on his own and that itself makes it worth it. Not to mention the...

The snippet sounds cool. It already feels different than previous albums, but I'm totally open-minded, because it's obviously too little to judge for now. The riff is really cool and I bet the voice changer part is just a small part of the track. As for the lack of a second guitar player I...

To me 2023 is much better. The pink doesn't really match the rest and makes it look a bit messy. Also, SiT Eddie's eye-thing seems like the more interesting side to present in this context.

The links redirect me to the main page of that service. Can you try reuploading elsewhere? And how did you figure out the tunings on The Chemical Wedding? Just by playing by ear or are there hints somewhere in interviews? When I tried learning Chemical Wedding or The Alchemist using E/drop D...

Finally some official news! Incredibly excited for the new album. These few months are going to feel like eternity, I want it now! This is basically on par with a new Maiden album for me. As for the title, I dig the mandrake reference, but the "project" part seems kind of lame. However, we don't...

Any insight into whether or not a first single is likely tomorrow? Probably not, but one can hope!

Thanks, didn't know. Today's stream was in a much better quality, so it still would be cool to see, though.
