[QUOTE=sack-man]mmm...animal photographs...

anyway...i'm really bored. listening to that dragonforce album again (well parts of it). only another 5 days without my family, what a shame :p

so anyway, what sort of theme do you lot reckon the next album will follow? a sort of mythical one? it is supposed to be along the same line as SSOASS, i think.[/QUOTE]
I hope it has to do with something mythical like. As great as an album covered with songs with roughly the same subject of Paschendale would be, I'd much prefer an album about the Vikings invading England..(only make the songs better than Invaders was)

Invaders is ace and so is Invasion.

I'm hoping Mystical like power metal, but then I dread the wave of people catergorising Maiden as power metal.

I quite liken the political direction they were leaning with songs like Face In The Sand. Then again, I got into guitar music through pop-punk then punk, so that's understandable.

The last album was kinda about death (I saw an interview with Bruce where he relates every song to death). I think it'd be interesting to do a similar thing with life. Or maybe that's a bit SSOASS.

Or they could take a classic novel and convert it into a book (a little like they did with SSOASS). Something like 1984 or something.

Or even (long shot here): an album about West Ham winning the premier league :D

Well, with a name like Dance of Death, you'd almost expect it to be about death and mortality. :)

That would be awesome, as long as they picked a good novel..not something like Harry Potter..imagine the Maiden songs that would come from that....

It would be funny. They could do a B-side with that.

1984 would be good.

Maybe they could write one about Goodbye Lenin. That's a really good film.

True, but it wasn't written as a concept album.

Actually...Wildest Dreams can't really be linked to death convincingly either.

Hey Guys I've been thinking about learnning the trooper. before I
do though is it very hard? I'm pretty sure I can learn it...but you know.

and is there any tab out there that you all would recomend?

it depends on what instrument you want, and how you want to play it (same as the band or make some adjustments for easier playing). but the basic answer is "intermediate"

I'm a really good player (Guitar) but I might need to learn the bass too

David Bowie already did an album based on 1984, Invaders sucks dick, and Powerslave, Killers, and Number of the Beast, are the best Eddies.

[QUOTE=Britton]I'm a really good player (Guitar) but I might need to learn the bass too[/QUOTE]
A little cocky huh?

No I'm not cocky. A lot of really good players have told me I'm good.
I'm sorry if it came out as me being cocky.

So can ya'll hook me up?

^^ yah trooper is easy on almost every instrument imo ( i can play it on drums, guitar, and bass)

Cheesey band covers, listen to the lyrics:

The Trooper

[QUOTE=NightHorse]The Trooper[/QUOTE]


oh, my bad. But yah, the trooper is better as a full band song, still sounds good with one instrument though.

Guess who put a 'Listem with Nicko' Answer machine message on his voicemail...

Oh I guess that would be me :eek:

coolish, i want a listen with niko answering machine thing!

Actually, 1984 would be quite good theme,
maybe that's a bit too left-wing for maiden though

1984............?



i know im a dumbass

play by George Orwell?

/hopes he isn't wrong.

ohhhhh ok gotcha! :thumb:

[QUOTE=sack-man][I][B]Novel[/B][/I] by George Orwell?

/hopes he isn't wrong.[/QUOTE]
No, you're right

for once...

1984 is a bit too political for Maiden. And plus they've already been there in a sense with Prisoner (although that's from something else, but you know what I mean :confused: ).

I think it'd be cool if it was about the 'end of days'...

man,......cant f[size="2"]u[/size]cking wait for the new album......

[quote=ashman]Guess who put a 'Listem with Nicko' Answer machine message on his voicemail...

Very very cool.

Can I call you to hear it?


I just had a really good one: it's bit like OOSP, but whatever. They could do an album based on War Of The Worlds.

When that was originally broadcast as a radio play in the USA, it was done in the style of news bulletins, so everyone there thought aliens really were invading and there were mass riots.

I'm not sure whether, as the producer of that, I'd have been happy or horrified, or both.
