"The Book of Souls" - Official pre-release thread (CONTAINS ALBUM SPOILERS)

[Black Bart]

This is even funnier... given that the guitar player is none other than Janick Gers and that the recording is from 1980:

 

[Maniac618]

The 2 Minutes to Midnight riff is one of those riffs that is so obvious to play that it is like saying all Blues music players are ripping off whoever first made 12 bar blues etc. It's not really a thing that can be argued as it is just so common.

 

[Diplomat]

Today is tour date announcements...

Really? Where is the announcement?

 

[Moonchild]

There are rumors about that last 30 (or so) days. Soooo, we hope for the best!

 

[Gk1]

But we don't even know if Bruce is able to sing!!!

 

[Diplomat]

Well, maybe Bruce knows.

 

[Gk1]

Well, maybe Bruce knows.

You reckon!?

 

[Meliegree]

In one of interviews he stated that he can sing but it's to early to do this after therapy.

 

[The Drifter]

Due it says it has leaked...did anyone verify this?

 

[Moonchild]

Fake.

 

[Meliegree]

It's bullshit. Same shit with old songs.

 

[Gk1]

I did not even manage to find the old file......ahahahahahaha....fail!

 

[Jadukor]

I need some god damn song samples.

 

[Maniac618]

I can't believe there aren't the usual 30 second samples on iTunes, Google Play Music etc yet?!

 

[Night Prowler]

Sample

 

[Maniac618]

Sample

'samples'

 

[Gk1]

 

[shadowpants]

Think I'll skip samples this time. But would really love to see studio diaries. Always enjoy those.
Something! Does anyone remember how soon we had those before? pre or post album release?

 

[Moonchild]

It's only 10 days until album.

 

[Gk1]

@shadowpants: Would you be kind enough to create some 30sec samples?

Thanks in advance
