GAMES DISCUSSION - submissions welcome!

I actually like it as its own thing — typical power metal lyrics with the Sabaton style — and want it included. At the very least we can get one of your epic analyrants out of it!

I don’t even think I could rant about it for more than two sentences!

New goal: Diesel typing up big positive reviews about each song and Knick taking them apart sentence by sentence to showcase why I'm wrong.

I will commit to this goal solely for Metalizer.

Swear to god, I will hold you to this.

If you play along that would probably make the game really interesting. I'd be super curious to get your takes.

Thank you very much indeed, but I don't really know a single song by them?
After Plovdiv, I tried to listen to their stuff on Youtube and quickly lost interest, the live experience was something entirely different.
Pairs of songs as in e.g. The Crusade of Epics I could do, but I'm totally incompetent for an albums survivor.

I guess it also boils down to where you stand on power metal as a genre. My guess is that you'd like Primo Victoria and Attero Dominatus (the first two albums) best, but I think that the string of The Art of War - Coat of Arms - Carolus Rex is one of the best strings of albums ever and it's a shame they took what they had on those and started churning out simple repeats of their material since then.

So, when will we have the new DT referendum? It's been almost five years since the last one (which is definitely one of the best threads on Maidenfans as a whole) and there's been two new albums in that time.

Or a Rush referendum.

 

[Saapanael]

Asking the right questions.

I'm in for both.

 

[MrKnickerbocker]

Me as well, maybe after Opeth.

 

[Night Prowler]

I'm not gonna host DT again as I haven't liked anything they released since ADTOE. Also the DT Survivor was probably my favorite Survivor and I feel like the sequel wouldn't be as fun

I would definitely host a Rush-feredum, would be a good opportunity to get more into them. But not before Opeth is over.

 

[Kalata]

Will we have a new Maiden game featuring Senjutsu at some point? Maybe an album survivor or a head to head song game or both.

 

[Boroking]

if you really want to be happy then follow these 6 Things which are No illicit s.ex, No g.ambling, No d.rugs ( No tea & coffee ), No meat-eating ( No onion & garlic's )

Sure but what does Lord Krishna have against onion and garlic? I’d have to change the whole way I cook.

 

[Deleted member 7164]

purpose of human life is not to live like animal cuz every`1 at present time doing 4 thing which are sleeping, eating, s.ex & fear

I dropped sex and fear but I tried not sleeping and eating and it didn't go well.

 

[Kalata]

I have a question: Have we ever had a game for the Best Chorus in a Maiden song? It would be cool.

... or Best Vocal performance of Bruce/Best Drumming in a song? And why not Best Melodies in a Maiden song too?

With Senjutsu now, I also would like to participate in a Best solo/s game.

 

[Brigantium]

I like the idea of Best Chorus as a game, interesting angle to put on it.

 

[MindRuler]

Wasted Years would be a nice winner...

 

[Brigantium]

Guess what, I totally disagree. This already has the makings of a great game!

 

[Jer]

“The Angel And The Gambler” vs. “Don’t Look To The Eyes Of A Stranger” for the ironic dark horse vote?

I can also imagine debate about whether certain songs even have a chorus, and if so, what it is…

 

[Stardust]

So, when will the next Iron Maiden Referendum happen? From how these have been spaced out over the years - probably not until 2023 at the earliest.
