After listening to all three availiable songs, I;ve come to the conclusion that they don't have huge impact on first listening, but I can imagine myself after really getting into the album, liking it a lot.

[QUOTE=GurS]DW>BTATS>TROBB in my book.

Listen to DW... does anyone else get reminded of the verses of "Invaders"?[/QUOTE]
It reminded me more of Rainmaker than Invaders really.

[QUOTE=PAJJ]I love how bruce sounds on these songs, as much as i agree in a technical sense it's dropped a bit, he has more emotion to it, so IMO it's better then ever.[/QUOTE]
I have to agree, his voice is so powerful on the songs.. though i'd still like to hear a few screams like on NotB or something

Well you have to remember he has been singing and constantly touring for over 20 years, so considering that, he's voice has faired REALLY well.

Yeah I realize that, I was just thinking that some of the songs would benefit from a well placed scream here or there. If anything his voice is almost stronger now than ever with all those years behind him. I can't wait to hear what it'll be like on this next tour :D

:eek: Wow, I think I've never posted in this thread. I love Maiden though, the new songs are amazing I prefer BTATS above the rest.

Yeah, Maiden kicks a**, I love Piece of Mind and NoTB - I know, I'm still a n00b to them - anyone wanna give me some advice on what to get next?

Maybe the Self-titled, Seventh Son, Brave New World, and Dance of Death.

[I]Powerslave[/I] and [I]Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son[/I] are the major ones you are missing.

Jono, don't make me go on my Powerslave rant... :)

Oh right, the one about how much better [I]Seventh Son of A Seventh Son[/I] is?

Well, that, and that Powerslave is the fourth most overrated metal album in history.

What are the other three?

You'll be mad so I won't post them.


...in order, Master of Puppets, Reign in Blood, and Rust in Piece. /runs

Master of Puppets: yes
Reign In Blood: not really but I can see why
Rust In Peace: you f[size=2]u[/size]cking suck

...told ya.

RIB is alright, but nothing so overly special. I can't stand half of RIP. Same with Powerslave: Rime of the Ancient Mariner, Aces High, 2 Minutes to Midnight, and the title track f[SIZE=2]ucking[/SIZE] own, but the rest is total filler.

[QUOTE]Powerslave: Rime of the Ancient Mariner, Aces High, 2 Minutes to Midnight, and the title track ****ing own, but the rest is total filler.[/QUOTE]
I agree there.

Good filler, though. And I don't consider Losfer words REALLY filler. And Flash of the Blade rawk, stfu :(


(and, for the record, peace sells > rust in peace)

Indeed. PS > RIP

Losfer Words is terrible. So many people say that Powerslave is the only Maiden album you need to own, which makes me cry.

I'm listening to DW at the moment, this song pwns \m/

I didn't really like it that much, though it was better than TROBB. I'm in love with BTATS though.

I really wanna see them live in London in December. That would mean missing about ten days with my girl friend and family. But if a good friend says they'll come with me, I'm so going. w00t.

I still think BTATS is the best new song. I would rate them like this:

BTATS >> DF >> TROBB

Same. BTATS is the only one I would call outstanding.

Stop using acronyms!

TROBB = The Reincarnation of Benjamin Breeg
DW = Different Worlds
BTATS = Brighter Than A Thousand Suns

I could have figured that out. But it makes us seem nerdy and geeky. Neeky even!

Never!

Acroynms can be the greatest thing ever created in an interweb forum.

Don't make me come over there!

You are right indeed.


MUAIF

Making up acronyms is fun. /stops

Rust In Piece?? You better run. :angry:

and BTATS pwns TROBB and DW

/comes back to make statement

I agree that BTATS pwns the others.

/runs before you notice me

Me likes the new song lots.

But,at the moment all i can hear in my head is DW, it's just so gad damn catchy.

I agree with you there, i've been singing it all weekend.

I've only listened to each of the three songs once. I don't want everything to be overplayed to death before my first listen of the entire album.

i can't stop, they're all really good, still thinking BTATS>TROBB>>DW
TROBB is out properly tomorrow, which i'll buy for a decent quality version of the song, and it's only 15 days until the album, it's like the build up to christmas.......

except more metally then christmas \m/

Well..I really enjoyed what I heard from A Thousands Suns..so..I've decided to leave it at that.

I've always had a habbit of ruining albums for myself..so..I've listened to and will continue to listen to TROBB and I also got to hear chopped up pieces (But oh so lovely pieces) of A Thousand Suns, so I'm going to leave it at that. I won't check into Different Worlds. I'm not ruining this album for myself, and this way I'm going to possibly go insane the moment I put the CD in my Player and give it it's first listen.

:) I'm so bloody pumped.

In other news, I fayled to get tickets to a Maiden concert as my family quite suddenly decided to go away for the weekend and I was left without access to a computer/internet. :(
