Iron Maiden - A Matter of Life and Death.

Post by Deadly EYez »

Anyone bought it?
I just bought it today (Yeah I know kinda too late) and love The Reincarnation of Benjamin Breeg.
I totally recommend getting this album.

Do we have Iron Maiden fans here?
I'm waiting in my cold cell, when the bell begins to chime.
Reflecting on my past life and it doesn't have much time.
'Cause at 5 o'clock they take me to the Gallows pole,
The sands of time for me are running low.

Can it be that there's some sort of error.
Hard to stop the surmounting terror.
Is it really the end, not some crazy dream.

LOL.

Sorry, overreaction... Nevermind.

Anyways, Iron Maiden's cool... Some of their stuff's a little weird though. Best of the Beast is all you really need imo.

Ever since I first heard some of Iron Maiden's stuff almost 5 years ago they were and probably still are one of my favorite bands of all time (amazing band in concert too). Favorite of albums from them had to be (in no particular order):

-Somewhere In Time
-Powerslave
-Seventh Son of a Seventh Son
-Brave New World
-Piece of Mind (the trooper = overrated song IMO)

As for their newest album, a friend of mine gave me a copy of it for my birthday and it's a good album overall. It has a more epic sound to it and some of my favorite tracks are The Reincarnation of Benjamin Breeg, For the Greater Good of God, and Different Worlds. My only real complaint about the album is Iron Maiden to me is a band that changes up their sound a bit for each album so each album has it's own unique atmosphere and sound to it. The last 2 albums sounded a bit too much like Brave New World for my taste which isn't a bad thing but I do like the bit of variety that Iron Maiden put in their earlier albums.

You might find it "bulshl1t", But i am more than happy they're still singing.
And I'd love to see another new album.

My Mechanics teacher said today that the lead singer of Iron Maiden is a pilot for Icelandic airlines or something like that. Can anyone confirm this please?

Yes he is a pilot and he also flies Iron Maiden's tour plane. Also some other talents of Bruce Dickinson is he is a fencer (forget if he's professional or not) and he has also written his own novel and from what I hear he's even directing his own movie.

Once I discovered Slayer, Maiden was just not heavy enough for me.
