I pretty much know what to expect from the reviews. Samples will only make me angry, like watching a dancing stripper.

I quite enjoyed TFF samples back in the day. However I get your point.


@Brigantium: Tour dates would be nice too. Especially if they include Greece for a studio album....for a change.
 
don't really care who wrote IESF but kinda petty if they don't give correct song credits. you can buy rights to the song without denying writing credits.
 
Anyone in the US planning on attending a listening party?

This makes me wet! ( from that old french review and yes, google translate sucks)


"Then the Homeric building is set up with first a sense of travel, escape, without cruise back to the end of the world. The rhythm of the verse is very close, not to say inspired by that of "Rime Of The Ancient Mariner '. Wink obvious eye, because it is almost the same cavalcades. The song is armed with strong words on background destiny and luck in the games.
 
15 days til the album. Today I'm going to start listening to one Maiden album a day to ease the wait.
 
This is the rough translation of a brief interview with Bruce, appeared on today's issue of "Corriere della Sera", an italian newspaper. Nothing really new, or of particular interest, apart the confirmation that "Tears Of A Clown" is about Robin Williams.
Can someone explain to me why this should not have been posted in spoiler tags?
 
EDITED 30/07/15: There is no requirement for spoiler tags in this thread for information regarding the new album. The rules surrounding leaks still apply, and a thread has been posted and pinned in Maidan Chat with details of these rules. Spoiler tags are still required when discussing non-'official' news about the album in other threads.
 
Yep, spoiler tags are required in this thread for details of the forthcoming tour, such as information on setlists, and we've put one or two very long posts (eg full reviews which have been copied and pasted) into spoiler tags just because they take up a lot of space. Otherwise there's no requirement for spoiler tags about the album in this thread. All the rules about leaks, as Sixes said above, still stand.
