NOW PLAYING


Beautiful. Not listened to this one for ages, weird how things suddenly appear back into your memory.
Beautiful indeed. Curious choice by Bruce to end the album with 2 slow songs and strangely enough they flow great.
Mery misappointing.
No chance. A diamond of an album.
Classy Samurai >>>> Zombie Samurai :D
The zombie always wins! :p

Pretty cool power-metally version of the song.
In its original, it already sounds like a power metal song. Fast tempo, high vocals.

... namely their inability to self-edit things (although I am immune to the latter; that’s one of the perks of being a Maiden fan since the early 90s :lol: ).
Come to think of it, the only Maiden songs I will still like without a long intro or think they need editing are:

intros:
Gates Of Tomorrow
Satellite 15... The Final Frontier (although it is very fitting)
Mother Of Mercy
The Man Who Would Be King
The Time Machine

editing:
The Fugitive (the intro)
Fortunes Of War (the intro)
The Edge Of Darkenss (the intro)
The Angel And The Gambler
Don't Look To The Eyes Of A Stranger
For The Greater Good Of God (just one pre-chorus)
Satellite 15... The Final Frontier (the intro)
Isle Of Avalon (the intro)
The Red And The Black (just a bit)
Darkest Hour (the seagulls outro)
Hell On Earth
 
Since Senjutsu it has grown on me especially in the production department.

Mammoth WVH - You've to Blame

(1 of the opening acts for Metallica this year; debut lp has really grown on me; highly influenced by 90s rock)
