    Bruce Dickinson

    I thought Bruce's last album had been well received. From what I've just read in the last few pages, it seems I was wrong. I've tried it again recently, and I just can't figure out how he released such a patchy thing and genuinely thought it was great.

    Iced Earth

    This guy is decided to explore all the possible lows in intellectual and moral life. I think he is becoming embarrasing, really. And I assume that from a European's point of view, where religion is not so important, it's even worse.

    Steve Harris

    His interviews tend to be more interesting these days. A couple of years ago, he's been interviewed by a lady and talked about his taste for fixing things at home, his love for architecture and so on. And a few of his BL interviews are quite good too. This Powerslave bit answers a lot of...

    Steve Harris

    One of the most interesting interviews in ages. Thank you very much for the translation. From the lack of reaction, I assume most people here are missing it because it's in the solo thread and they don't like British Lion.

    What if Adrian played/wrote some of Janick's solos?

    The song being a leftover doesn't mean the solo was already written. They record them wiihout properly writing them as far as I know, even if Smith tends to be more careful than Murray.

    Simon Dawson is the new drummer

    Well, Mankind is part of Nature, no doubt. But saying that businesses mimic nature is a pure (maybe uncouncious, I will leave you the benefit of doubt) liberal (in the economic sense of the word) discourse. There is nothing "natural" there, nor in the so-called "market". There are not...

    Simon Dawson is the new drummer

    Putting business, organisation and nature in the same sentence to talk about a babd is a real feat. Bands are businesses and brands, but they are much more than that. An do you really think Rod would help build a Steveless Maiden ? Come on... In the songs you are alluding to, Steve did not...

    Simon Dawson is the new drummer

    I couln't disagree more. Motörhead couln't exist without Lemmy. He was the band, and Steve is Maiden. Him not being the frontman is of no importance. He's the band's identity, without him the band would turn into something else. And Lizzy without Lynott is a shame. That was his baby. I guess...

    OPETH DISCOGRAPHY RANKING GAME - Still Life wins!

    This thead and your comments has helped me to get into Opeth. I didn't know how to listen to this band: each time I tried something, I fell upon very different stuff and couldn't understand what kind of band I was listening to. After repetedly listening to most of their records (I haven't tried...

    Was Fear of the Dark a crowd-pleaser in the 90's?

    Perfect answer. When I saw them in Paris in 1992, this song wasn't a particuliar stand out. Then, the amazing version on A Real Live One did a lot to improve its status.

    Simon Dawson is the new drummer

    Well, given all his past efforts to buy all the royalty rights from former members (which I'm sure isn't only a business move), I'm 100 % sure he has already done everything, with Rod's help, to make sure that nothing could happen without him. Should he disappear all of a sudden, I'm sure we...

    Simon Dawson is the new drummer

    Last year, you wrote that basically, the songs didn't suffer from Nicko's disminished technical abilities. And now ypu complain because they chose a less technical drummer. Him and Steve ate really really tight live. That's the point that matters.

    Maiden inspired from a Bollywood song?

    Most Adrian riffs are quite generic, and you can hear them elsewhere (2minutes..). It's Bruce vocal lines that make their songs special

    Nicko McBrain retires

    Sad. I guess this is bad news for those who expect a new Bruce album.

    Nicko McBrain retires

    He wasn't. He almost always leaves the stage very late, just befor Nicko, and waves at the crowd. This time he left early and I'm sure that's because he didn't want to be emotional in front of a crowd.

    Nicko McBrain retires

    Really? Didn't know that. Could you elaborate please ?

    Nicko McBrain retires

    He did, and was submitted to full scale interrogatory by Rod, so tight that Steve had to put an end to it.

    Nicko McBrain retires

    Yes, next time, I will submit my statements to you before posting, to avoid displeasing you. Remember most of you were discussing his downfall and potential replacement a few days ago. The discussion has just turned more concrete and I voiced my opinion without being rude to anyone, contrary to...
