It doesn´t have to click, it have to slap.

I really dont get it. I think its a solid Maiden album, but The Parchement, its sooooo boring. Maybe one day it might click with me but at the minute its so unforgettable.

It sure is unforgettable. Kickass song.

I felt the same way at release but the song is now my second favourite from the album (after TWOTW).

^I've recently listened to Senjutsu too. I like all songs now but Death of the Celts less; I wouldn't mind it being removed. Yeap, with headphones sounds way better!
Lord of Light, Legacy & Brighten than thousand_suns for me.

Speaking about The Time Machine: playing it right now. That delicious midsection riff straight out of The Blaze era! And that slow part right before Bruce final lines could´ve been longer IMO...really love that.

After some time, I look at this album differently. It's very good, but I don't know if I can put it next to my favorites. It's ... different, but in a good way. At the moment I have a problem with pointing to a song that I would like to get rid of. I further insist that this is a very strong album, but its true power and depth should be evident on tour.

This? What you mean this? Time Machine, or Senjutsu album?

The Senjutsu album.
Time Machine grew on me as a song too.
Really solid album with no bottom-of-the-barrel stuff.

The Senjutsu album.
I see. Well for me it's a fact, though one place below than yours. After a thorough and detailed ranking process, verdict is that: Senjutsu is no5's no6.
@chaosapiant nerd alarm, I thought you might be interested

I don't have a least favorite song from the album, let alone a song that I would like to get rid of. I think @Randalf said that Senjutsu seems to divide opinions a bit more when it comes to individual songs and album highlights, if we have to compare it to TBOS (the previous album and another modern classic) and that says a lot about the quality of all the songs.
