"The Man Of Sorrows"

I think one of the band members has been down that road before..

But seriously, this looks like it's going to be one heck of an album. I hope they've just gone absolutely mad when writing all of this.

 

[Slash]

They always top their work you think that can't be topped.

[JockeP22]

Seriously can't wait!

That ^
I knew you would be the one to break the news to me, Slash.

I've got all fifteen albums on CD plus Bruce's solo stuff
so the chances I'll be missing this are very slim.

 

[McLaren]

Have to give Bruce major props. 40 years in the industry & he's still managed to keep his voice sounding as fresh as ever at 50+ years old, esp. in concerts.

 

[Skython]

@McLaren And then there is Geoff Tate, who went from brilliant to sounding like an otter being strangled half of the time.

If they can top BNW my hat is off to them.

 

[JKgo]

Off topic slightly, but I didn't know Dickinson could fly...

What a man.

 

[GTPVenomZombie]

Oh wow man freak out! In the words of the `Macho Man` Randy Savage, "Ohhhh yeaaaaa"!

 

[Slash]

Preview guys!!!!!!!



Adrians solo at the start of the clip sounds very Piece of Mind era tone but then the rest of it sounds very Somewhere in Time/Seventh Son era. Not a bad thing as those are two of my favorite albums.


The first single "Speed of Light" will be out on August 14th.

 

[Slash]

First review is out!

First song release from the album.

Also, I consider this an achievement.

By the time the song ended it was already at 3,000 views.

 

[Slash]

Yeeeeeee!!!

 

[FerrariF1GT]

I still can't believe that Dickinson can still hit those high notes considering his age and his recent treatment for cancer.

I also spotted references to Maiden's past albums in that video, mostly The Number Of The Beast, but I also saw some references to Piece Of Mind and Powerslave. It's hard for me to believe that the video pays homage to some older video games as well.

Before I end, #UpTheIrons!

 

[Skython]

There was also A Matter of Life and Death, Live After Death, The Final Frontier, Somewhere in Time and references to songs like Bring Your Daughter... To the Slaughter (the red girl on top of the building), and their Trooper Beer. And there's bound to be more I didn't notice.

 

[Slash]

Iron Maiden has written about and written a song dedicated to Robin Williams.
