Iron Maiden studio album 17 rumours and speculations

[KidInTheDark666]

We haven't found anything out in a long while now. It's still rather likely that they've already recorded the album. It's also very likely that Bruce was indeed pumping his new ladyfriend.

 

[Trevoire]

Yeah Bruce doesn't need the whole band and producer in Paris to pump his lady friend. Album is done. We're just playing the waiting game.

I look at the Maiden official website now and again but no hint at all. It surely is the longest most drawn out wait we have had to endure as fans awaiting new music.

 

[THESEVENTHMARINER]

Yeah Bruce doesn't need the whole band and producer in Paris to pump his lady friend.

We don't know that for sure.

 

[Travis The Dragon]

Have the 'rumours' basically gone away after we found out there was no studio work in Paris just Bruce pumping his new ladyfriend?

We haven't found anything out in a long while now. It's still rather likely that they've already recorded the album. It's also very likely that Bruce was indeed pumping his new ladyfriend.

So that's the concept of Bruce's new 80 minute epic which will take up all of disc 3.

I have a feeling we'll be waiting until after next year's tour for any updates.

 

[jazz from hell]

The system works like this: Perhaps they're unsatisfied with what they've recorded and want to revisit it in early 2021 or so. And then, they'll probably decide to tune that shit down. At least I hope so.

Written on the piano, in d minor, the saddest of all keys, titled Lick My Love Pump.

I think we will get some info with the North/South American tour announcement which should be around six months before tour start.

It would fit with the times to release their black album now.

Fair point, and I hadn't think about that.
Let's say the new album tour starts in September 2021, it could be safe to say we'll get at least a title/cover artwork/concept reveal around early next year.

But... that would mean announcing a new thing before the Legacy era is officially closed... And judging by the way they worked with those things, announcements and stuff, over the last years... It sounds a bit unlikely, to be honest. Then again, it's also true they lost a full year of plans, and 2 different tours in the same year could be very likely, at this point. We'll see..

 

[The Red and the Black]

The rumor I heard is that the band is very unhappy with Kevin Shirley's muddy production of the album, and they are looking for a new producer. Steve has reached out to Martin Birch to come out of retirement to re-produce the album. However it is unclear whether or not Martin will do it. So the album is in limbo.

 

[Trevoire]

That sounds like nonsense fan fiction.

The faces in the pool told me.

I've no doubt that you think I'm off of my head. You don't say, but it's in your eyes instead.

Now it's clear, and I know what I have to do. I must take you down there to look at them, too.

 

[londongeorge]

Can Steve even tell whats muddy now or not?

 

[yeahitsmilo]

How long is it normally on average from an album being announced and made public to it being released?

Please tell us where you heard this rumour.

Kevin Shirley is basically a yes man for Steve Harris. The "as live" production is what Steve wants.

 

[Ruflux]

I think this site's posters may need their sarcasm detectors checked.

 

[Magnus]

He should, being an avid football player.

TBOS was announced mid-june and released early september so less than 3 months.
