    Ghost

    I've been a Ghost fan since the first album, and I've honestly never looked at, or know anything, about the lore of the band. I think the gimmick was dead anyway as soon as Tobias Forge became known. Also, for swedes, is the name pronounced Foria?

    Ghost

    Yeah it's the Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner mainly, but it's a groove Maiden use a good bit in the reunion era.

    UK Politics

    What I find funny is all this faux bullshit about people being strangers in their own country etc. If this was really the issue, wouldn't halting emigration from the UK be just as much a concern?

    USA Politics

    i don't think anyone thinks that, possibly because guys like Conor McGregor, Nigel Farage, the AFD, Marine Le Pen and all sorts of others that we have over here, wouldn't let us get up on a high horse about Trump. It's mainly worry that he's empowering these types that are driving the comments I...

    Ghost

    I think the debate about whether Ghost are metal or not comes from people who think metal is constipated vocals and 0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0 riffs only. I love that Ghost ditched this bullshit and went back to catchy hits with hooks that all the great bands in metal have always had.

    RUN FOR YOUR LIVES WORLD TOUR (2025/2026)

    And when have they been known to go into a studio to record one track, and if it had even happened, what are the chances of Maiden nerds not having discovered something about it? It might have been plausible to say Maiden are going to release a video clip of Wrathchild or Trooper from the...

    RUN FOR YOUR LIVES WORLD TOUR (2025/2026)

    I don't recall Wildest Dreams being leaked. Certainly a boot of the first night of the tour went viral, but I don't recall a studio version ever being leaked. I was at Donington which was one of the very early gigs on that tour, and even then Wildest Dreams wasn't even that well known by people...

    Iron Maiden News, Links, and Interviews

    Not sure I'd take an article that has lower case letters in it's heading as being kosher

    Adrian Smith

    Think he must be having a laugh there as the whole song is The Writing on the Wall

    Is the popularity of Wasting Love fabricated?

    I've made that argunent on here before, but @Smither I think assured me that it was a hit in South America and the 1992 period was landmark with Maiden playing in South America for the first time, so maybe that explains the numbers

    Ghost

    I agree with that, but I think it started and finished well, Kaisarion and Respite on the Spittalfields are great openers and closers with a kind of cross between Seven Deadly Sins/To Live is to Die vibe, and then Spillways and Grfitwood are better catchy hits than from this album, but yeah the...

    Ghost

    Not so sure of this after a couple more listens, definitely nothing as shit as Hunter's Moon or Twenties on this one, but not sure theres anything as good as the better tracks on the last album

    What number one bands had Janick been in before Maiden?

    He contributed to a Fish album that reached number 5 in the charts

    Ghost

    Decent listen on first listen, better than the previous album. The first album is still miles better than anything that came after though. Enjoyed that track 5 on their 6th album has the same groove as The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner

    Simon Dawson is the new drummer

    Yeah it was mastered in 2015, I think the 2015 CD masterings are the same as the ones that were done for apple music the previous year, I think by Tony Newton. The LP masterings are done by a different guy I think

    Iron Maiden's management: What went wrong?

    Maiden definitely have had much, much more higher charting hits than Judas Priest. I agree with @Azas here I think you're having a laugh with this thread.

    Iron Maiden's management: What went wrong?

    Maiden are definitely on a bigger level than Judas Priest.

    50th Anniversary Documentary Announcement

    I may be wrong on the locations in the forum, but I feel there's lots of contributions from @Luisma of nerd stuff in the commentary discussion forum on things like live history of songs, rare versions, what songs are on what format and things of that kind of nature, I know there's a bit on the...

    RUN FOR YOUR LIVES WORLD TOUR (2025/2026)

    The bulk of the set is most likely going to be Trooper /Wrathchild stuff that they could knock out a great version of without thinking twice
