    Eddie action figures - I'm just following orders

    So it says on the back of these things that I have to collect them all. I'm only doing what I'm told. Anyone else finding these things at your local record store? I got these at a place called Sky Valley in NJ. Pretty cool. I was also told that if the hole at the top of the cardboard that's used...

    Senjutsu - 20 Months Later

    Still the most consistent since AMOLAD. Not as daring as TFF and not the variety that was BOS. I'm still conflicted. I keep going back to this more than their other post Blaze stuff but it's hard to say it's better or worse than what came before it. This is the best "what do you think of this...

    Someone edits Senjutsu and posts it on YouTube

    Am I the only one this pisses off? I get it if you want to do this kind of thing for yourself but to take someone's final work, edit it and post it on YouTube seems disrespectful to me. It's OK to be critical of the album I get that. This kind of thing though really gets under my skin. Am I...

    Revisiting The X Factor

    Right off the bat I think Virus should have been on the album. Anyway, what was your position on it when it was released? I remember being excited but apprehensive because no Bruce. I grabbed the CD the day it came out, gave it a listen and was captivated by Sign Of The Cross. This isn't Bruce...

    Dance Of Death aged very well

    To me this blows away every 90's album made (Although I have a soft spot for The X Factor). It's like FOTD for the post reunion material except twice as good. Montsegur is an absolute beast. Paschendale is a masterpiece. Rainmaker is a great single. Gates Of Tomorrow is sneaky good. No More Lies...

    I still can't believe The Thin Line Between Love and Hate is not a classic

    Bruce could still pull it off today and it has such a great payoff with the instrumentals at the end. What gives?

    I adore The Final Frontier

    This has to be the best written album in the modern Maiden era. Not to mention the most experimental with the guitar work when it comes to songs like Starblind and The Man Who Would Be King. I just love this record. I get it isn't prefect but on a whole, this is a great Maiden record. I'm...

    Is it worth joining the fanclub?

    Hi fans. I haven't been here since the BoS release. Hope all is well. So it occurred to me I never became a fanclub member for my favorite band. Just never really thought of it until I went to their website to order vinyl (something I should have done decades ago). My question is if anyone here...

    When someone asks me what I like most about Maiden...

    I tell them to go to the title track on BoS and start at the 8:19 mark. Question answered.

    Why Iron Maiden is my favorite band

    It's not just the music (although it's the main part) but the band's integrity. I was thinking about this the other day. What other band sticks to their guns better than Maiden? What other band put out a double album in 2016? I look at the douchebaggery of some of the bands I grew up with...

    Hey, were is BNW on iTunes?

    So I've been rebuying the iTunes versions of Maiden's albums one by one and no BNW? What gives? Has anyone noticed this?

    Metalholic has a review for BoS

    Just saw it. If this belongs in another sub-forum, I apologize but I know the Maiden fan mods will move it. Also, if this was posted before I apologize for that too. http://metalholic.com/cd-review-iron-maiden-the-book-of-souls/ Up the irons!

    The problem with people asking for shorter Maiden songs

    I've heard a lot of this lately. People criticize Maiden for long songs and while they are legit in some cases, I feel like most of these criticisms are somewhat unfounded. Most will cite earlier recordings as an example without realizing many of Maiden's best tunes from the earlier days are...

    It's sickening how underrated Lord of Light is

    I should have joined the forum sooner seeing how Maiden has been my my all time favorite band since I first listened to SiT back in 86. Anyway... What exactly is the problem? Lord of Light has probably IMO the best chorus on the entire album. Bruce goes off into another dimension and it has...
