I don't know if someone has already mentioned that. Live Forever (on the shirt and poster) sounds like a good new single title...
and "man or beast" and "heaven or hell" part of the lyric...
 
Till yesterday I was not familiar with all this Belshazzar story thing. Don't you think it's not enough for a concept album? Or, this may be too related to bible? Once again, from these clues I get strong Bruceish TCW kind of vibe. Then it was alchemy, now some biblical story. Maybe it will be not a concept album, but two or three thematically connected songs. Interesting times..
Oh, it's interwoven with Babylon..

I would love a concept album!!! A concept album is like to read a book and any song is a chapter of the story. Unfortunately I don't think it is going to be a concept album but everything is referring to the new single. But I really really hope I'm wrong.
 
Apparently scholars consider Belshazzar’s feast to be fiction. Could this mean Maiden are just bullshitting us? The plot thickens.
 
What is WOTW?

Walker on the Wing = WOTW.
 
Just had an email back!

"You have knocked and we have been summoned.
You hunger and soon you will feast.
Ascension assured to the patient.
Be you a man or be you a beast.

We of the brotherhood are watching.
On our marks you'll need to get set.
The Fire of Belshazzar is coming.
What three words, we'll signal but not yet."

Forget the “WOTW” in the second stanza, I’m looking at the “YYAB” from the first one: “Yes, Yes, Another Beer!”
