Senjutsu - 3rd September 2021

[dickinson1978]

Just as listening again here, I will ask you one more question:
The part at around 1:08 on "Hell On Earth" does it remind you of some else song or theme?
I think it's one of the instances on the album that takes me somewhere, some other have nods to Maiden's own past and songs..

When the Wild wind blows

Yea this is where my head is at too. But I'm hesitant to rank Senjutsu just yet....as its still fresh and still growing. Wasn't sure about DOTC on first listen or two...however now after listen 4/5 its starting to appear. Brilliant. This album and FInal Frontier have been the biggest growers for me so far

There is an odd sound at 9.47 of Hell on Earth, is this from the bass?
Not a musician, but it sticks out to me each listen... seems like it should have been cut out?

 

[giratina]

Is Senjutsu the most original song on the album ? Is it the song that brings unusual stuff and don't borrow too much from older songs?

It’s Steve’s fingers, sliding through the strings

Yep. Same with TWOTW.

Is this something that 'should' have been edited out, or is this type of thing more commonly edited out?

Nah. Commonly? Depends on the music... Acoustic music supposed to sound like it was played by people usually keeps the stuff in. And it's impossible to play an acoustic instrument without some noise coming from moving your fretting hand around. It's not mistakes, just the way the instrument behaves.

 

[SinisterMinisterX]

Is this something that 'should' have been edited out, or is this type of thing more commonly edited out?

It's like editing out the sound of quick breaths being taken in during talking or singing. It sounds weird without the necessary background noise.

 

[Flaming Blimp Crash]

RIP Iron Maiden.

Let's hope Nicko practised golf enough during these years to become a professional, because clearly, as a drummer, he is gone.

Damn, they couldn't beat Drake, one of the biggest current music stars? If only they did Top of the Pops.

dont know...just i dont like that album. I prefer Virtual XI and X factor than DOD by far.

 

[TheMercenary]

Did you notice that the early riff on "The Writing On The Wall" looks like the riff in The Beatles' song "Helter Skelter" ?

nopeee

 

[FattyFooty]

I love it.

Only thing is, i cant hear the vocals as good as in previuos albums. Writing on the wall is the only song i can really hear what Bruce sings.

Is it me or is it harder this time around?
