I absaloutely agree. I love it. I'd say it's probably my favorite Maiden album.

(I'm at TROBB right now)

For The Greater Good Of God sounds like a Blood Brothers/The Thin Line type song, I love it.

I can't get over this album..It's so awesome, it's...*teary eye* beautiful.

I just finished listening to the album for the first time. Man, it is sweet. I do wish that Bruce's voice was mixed just a bit higher, but it's no biggie. I'm really digging Nicko's drumming throughout the whole album. He is so solid.

I was talking to my friend, and I was going to tell him when I heard the first note of the album before he left. And Nicko says "Aye" or whatever and I was like "Nicko starts it, I love it already".

lionelhutz88 08-27-2006 11:07 PM

Nicko's drumming is always real tasteful. I can't think of any Iron Maiden songs where I thought he overplayed.

Mikesn 08-27-2006 11:30 PM

I'm really digging the first few verses of The Longest Day, the build up is very epic sounding.

pate 08-28-2006 12:30 AM

The whole album is amazing. It surpassed my expectations.

playguitar 08-28-2006 01:51 AM

Decent new album, better than anything they've released in a long time. But nothing will ever top Powerslave.

Surtr 08-28-2006 04:10 AM

Wow. Just wow.

I woke up this morning (Really earlier than usual, it's 6AM just now) and I started to sing (In my head) this guitar line, and then suddenly I was like..:eek: I've been listening to Maiden all night! I forgot to turn off my iPod! Ha! Subliminal Messages ftw! :p

I still love it hearing it this morning :)

Lord Abortion 08-28-2006 05:32 AM

It really is brilliant, I'm on my third time listening to it through, and it's just great.
Favourite songs so far are These colours don't run, the Legacy and for the greater good of God.

Surtr 08-28-2006 05:41 AM

I love...

Different Worlds
These Colours Don't Run
Brighter Than A Thousand Suns
The Longest Day
The Reincarnation Of Benjamin Breeg
For The Greater Good Of God
The Legacy

The other's are awesome tracks, but these ones are my favorites.

Lord Abortion 08-28-2006 05:48 AM

I love them all, to be honest.

hellrider 08-28-2006 05:59 AM

Brighter Than A Thousand Suns


were they quoting judas priest painkiller there i havent heard the album yet but im sure going to order it soon

Surtr 08-28-2006 06:02 AM

It's so progressive. I can't get over it. It's intensely progressive. It almost doesn't feel like Maiden, but when you listen to it, you kinda' go "There's no way anyone but Maiden could do that".

I've listened to nothing but Maiden since last night, and I'm wondering if I can listen to anything else. It'll just be like..Wow this other band sucks.

-The Frank 08-28-2006 06:07 AM

My copy wont be arriving for a while :(. All this talk is getting me really anxious to :(.

hellrider 08-28-2006 06:14 AM

MrConeman 08-28-2006 07:40 AM

Well, right after this post I'm leaving to buy amolad :) :)
I'll give my opinion when I've bought/heard it.

Stoo 08-28-2006 07:50 AM

Got it from Play.com this morning...

/listens.

Up to track 7 just now. Gooooooooooooooooooooooood Shism!

The only 2 Maiden albums I own are the first one and this one. 25 years apart!

deathscreamingsheep 08-28-2006 07:56 AM

I bought it just this morning. I also like it thus far though i haven't litsened all the way through. Currently I'm thinking I preferred Dance of Death of the recent albums, but this one certainly has its gems. I've got an Iced Earth album this morning as well so I'm a bit metalled out (not as big a metal fan as most on these R&M boards) so I'll give it a full listen later on.

-The Frank 08-28-2006 08:15 AM

I want my copy soooo bad, and i refuse to download it :(.

JamJar 08-28-2006 09:13 AM

First listen to the album just finished. It's pretty awsome and I can tell that when I get into it, it's going to be one of my favourite Maiden albums. My favourite tracks on the first listen are "Brighter Than A Thousand Suns", "For The Greater Good Of God" and "The Legacy."

crag 08-28-2006 09:26 AM

:( i haven't had the time to get into town to buy AMOLAD yet, i might have to wait until tomorrow to get it :(

Irons_rock 08-28-2006 11:23 AM

Listening to the new album now, really enjoying it so far. One of the best maiden albums i have heard.

Lord Abortion 08-28-2006 11:31 AM

I stopped listening to it for a while, otherwise I would go mental:)

NP-Bruce!-Man of sorrows-Great song.

JamJar 08-28-2006 12:09 PM

I just watched the DVD which came with it. Funny stuff :)

TojesDolan 08-28-2006 12:55 PM

I'll have to wait until I get extra money.

I don't feel like downloading Maiden, to be quiet honest.

I have all their discography on a n MP3 CD (which I'm listening currently), but I'm buying the albums as soon as I get the moneyz.

Surtr 08-29-2006 08:40 AM

I may get to buy my REAL copy of the album today.

I must say though, this is probably my favorite Maiden album. I love it, still, and I've had it going since The VERY start of Yesterday :p (Down to the exact second lol, I pressed play exactly when my clock switched over to the next day.)

I still can't say I don't like a single track. But I can say I love them all :).

PAJJ 08-29-2006 08:47 AM

That's a damn beautiful avatar you've got going there LST

Yeah i think this is probably thier best album, there's not a bad song in it, and everything just sounds so good, i love the length of all the songs, but i'm finding it hard to pic a fav at the moment, this is going to be so amazing live, especially if thery're playing it back to back.

Thanks. :) :p

My god I'd kill to go to the Montreal or Quebec show. I may have to go back to living outside Steve's door, and when he comes out, I'll run inside, steal his bass, his KD and a few backstage passes.

...And perhaps I'll just steal Steve too lol.

Lock him up in your basement and make him play all day, everyday. that'll teach him for barely having a N.American tour ! :sinister:

Play with what? I stole his bass remember? :lol:

I'd have really loved Maiden to come a bit more Atlantic Coast here in Canada. I know they could sell out no problem. Hell if they didn't I'd buy all the tickets. :p
