I love the new Maiden. Maybe it's because it was the first era I listened to when I started getting into Maiden, but I think their new stuff is absolutely phenomenal! Most people moan about their decision to make most of their songs longer than 6 minutes, but I think it's fantastic.
AMOLAD, TFF and BNW are all quite high up in my top 10 Iron Maiden albums. Whilst For The Greater Good Of God, When The Wild Wind Blows, The Reincarnation Of Benjamin Breeg, The Talisman, and Paschendale are high up in my top 10 Maiden songs (FTGGOG and Paschendale, being two of my all time favourite songs of all time).
So yeah, the stuff they're doing now, is on par with the stuff they were doing during their peak in the 80's. Fingers crossed the new album is of the same standard!
