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

[Brigantium]

The mania has set in. People are encouraging their own banishment.

Yes, and without any encouragement from the regulars, either.

Hey Mods, I made these for you:

Please use them to your hearts content.

Thank you, MrK

Ok, I'm done skipping. Now I have to turn off my ADD and pay attention tonight! I will start from the beginning and listen to...

Still holding out for the 4th....
Gotta say though that the positivity is immense

If you can wait - respect. I wish I could wait but between waiting and situation after leak I prefer lesser evil.

The thing that i've noticed most (and Surprised me the most) is that this does not feel like a 92 minute album at all, so many twists and turns to keep you on the edge of your seat, it seems too just fly by, not boring at all.

 

[Josh]

I am totally stuck on WTRRD right now. Very pleased.

A lot of the reviews had stated that as well..
There seems to be a parity or correlation between the reviews and the general feel from those who have heard the album from the forum i.e. It's pretty amazing.

Still not used to the new abbreviations....When The Wil...No....

 

[Meliegree]

Well… I now must find that article about Maiden & Robin Williams from AVClub.

This song got me good too It seems so happy & Joyous at 1st Listen that i'm suprised it wasn't used as the single

 

[TheSpectreWithin]

Only one listen...but Empire of the Clouds may already be in my top 10 Maiden tracks. Just stunning.

 

[Lempface]

Its so good......

 

[Ironriot]

I will eat bodies of my enemies whole. If they are from Kentucky.

Hey!

 

[Maturin]

Was the album mixed by a half-deaf monkey?

I hear the leak is not of good quality, so maybe we shouldn't judge production until we have a cd rip.

 

[That'sHowYouGetAnts]

And here I am stuck at work for another six hours.

Hands down, one of the best opening tracks to a Maiden album. This band seems very inspired

 

[CriedWhenBrucieLeft]

Do not ask for where to find the leak. Do not advertise where you found it. Do not share it via PM. Do not ask for it via PM.

Just wondering... is it all over the place (internet).

It's all over the place on the internet.

Second ban tonight.

Wow, this is one of the greatest Maiden songs ever. Really impressed by it, like really. Wow.
