Found this at the german Maiden Board:


The new Maiden Album is called "Away from Messiah" and will include 10
Tracks of typical but also of progressive Heavy Metal Songs. Away from
Messiah is the first Maiden album, inculding credits of each band member!
We were proud to hear 3 exclusive pre mixing Tracks (do not mail, we do not
send them to anybody). Here is our Review:

1.Track called: "The Sky of 1916". Shirley told me, this is the longest
Song of the album. Running Time approx 12Minutes. The Intro is like a
battlefield, you can hear a military drum march which goes directly to a drum
Intro and a heavy fat Riff (sounds more like master of puppets). Then Bruce
sing a long Text about a soldier in France fighting. There is no direct
Chorus. After 6 Minutes there is a break and you can hear a woman talking
about the lost of her son, then you can hear some choirs and some nice guitar
melody like sign of the Cross. At the end Bruce sings fantastic and there are
3 guitar solos and a little Bass Solo. I like this song very much, nicko drums
absolut fantastic and there is very much atmosphere!

2.Track called: "Empire" Don't expect Queensryche...A typical Maiden rock song,
Intro is a straight guitar riff like 22 Acacia and the chorus is brilliant.
It will burn into you ears. Running Time 4Minutes!

3.Track called; "Escape from Memory". 'I like this song, its like blood brothers
2003, nice melodies and clean accustik guitars. In the middle the song becomes
more speed and sounds like Brave New World. I like this too, but the keyboards
are a little bit to loud for maiden!
Stay Dark, Stay Evil
 
They were obviously talking about Dance of Death so my best guess is:

"The Sky of 1916" became Paschendale,
"Empire" became Face in the Sand,
"Escape from Memory" became No More Lies.

(Either that or Kevin Shirley stitched them up :lol:).
 
Away from Messiah rhymes with Majesty of Gaia. They must be going for something conceptual here.
