Multiple Albums Removed from Spotify

[Samantas5855]

The good news is that with NPFTD and BoS removed, Iron Maiden only have good albums on Spotify now

 

[Abas]

They still exist on Qobuz though

 

[Perun]

VXI is still on Spotify for me, but TBOS is gone. However, it hasn't been removed from my downloaded albums.

Spotify erasing albums from band's streaming platform list, isn't it a kind of negationism of the whole Maiden's discography for which we have to be proud of ? Just asking...

It could be a form of cancel culture applied to Iron Maiden, in particular, and to rock/metal, in general...

 

[JudasMyGuide]

Nope, it's usually just legal and licensing issues which eventually get resolved.* However, the most annoying part is that you usually don't know if it's going to take days, weeks or months. Or years, as it also happened with some of the bands I follow.

Thankfully, with Maiden being among the "big" bands, it might get resolved sooner than later.


* that said, some artists have intentionally pulled their albums off Spotify because of Joe Rogan and his "spreading misinformation regarding COVID", but I think that has thankfully mostly died down by now.

 

[The Red and the Black]

Rumor* has it that those albums were removed temporarily because Maiden has something special planned for them - they will be re-issued with additional tracks.

*I made up that rumor.

They're still available in iTunes . Virtual Xi is included as a compilation album but iTunes usually do these kind of things

Wait, iTunes doesn't count, Apple Music is the equivalent which we got confirmation from @Ruflux that still available.

EDIT: Also available on my Apple Music.

I can still see Senjutsu on there

Alexander Milas said on the FC-forums about this case:
"No timeline- it has been flagged though and the people who run it are aware."

 

[permanenteddie]

All albums are back to Spotify including the live ones

 

[PhantomOfTheOpera]

Just checked and all the albums are back for me too.

 

[Deadeye21]

Confirmed - Australia has the missing albums reuploded. Must’ve been a temporary rights issue

It's disheartening to see multiple albums removed from Spotify, impacting the music landscape.
