Hey man, check your email!!

I just heard the new album there are some good songs and some good riffs there yet is nothing woooooa, is good to hear some powerfullness again if I can say so but I still have to give it a try and later I would post a song by song review 

[dragan0T3]

The new album is on par with BNW and DoD imo.

For the Greater Good of God is the new epic.  The chorus is killer.
The Longest Day has amazing build up and powerful chorus.
These Colours Don't Run is cool and melodic.
Lord of Light and Legacy are really haunting, and different for Maiden.

In general, can't stop listening to it.  Oh and it wasn't mastered so it's not dynamically compressed and - good job Shirley!
 

[Mr. Dick Purple]

I cant stop listening either I think is great, not their best dont spect too much but is a great album, the riff are very catchy and the legacy is just 

[mrlee]

pretty decent album. typical of the 2nd bruce era, a little bit of old school is in it too though.

its ok, this is only my first listen though.


opening track was awesome btw.

[Shirell]

Got their new album, totally shit hot!!!!  Rocks

[Kujo]

Just got it yesterday and am totally loving it. "Reincarnation...", "For the Greater Good....", and "The Legacy" really stand out as exceptional songs. I thought the first 3 tracks, while good, just sounded a bit too much "Been there, done that" and was worried about the rest of the CD.

The rest of the CD wound up being excellent. I think this is the best of the 2nd Generation Bruce releases so far, nothing wrong with the others. There has been a steady improvement with each release, much the same way that there was with Bruces' solo efforts.

Up The Irons!

Now play Florida you bastards

[blowin smoke]

Just ordered my copy, waiting on delivery.
Read some cool reviews and can't wait, heard it supposed to be their best (heaviest) yet?
Maiden rock!! Best of British!
Everyone try's to knock 'em down, but they keep comin' back.

Don't expect the best, specially if you like albums like powerslave and 7th son of a 7th son, yes the album is great, yes the album has great riff, yes the album has heavy songs, but still isn't compare to those 2. Actually is more like in Fear of the dark level. 

[Kujo]

I was listening to this again on the ride from work and back down this morning. I've come to the conclusion that after the first 3 tracks you cant compare this to any other Iron Maiden CD. It is more like Bruces solo work, somewhere around the Skunkworks or Accident of Birth era. I agree that it isnt their best CD but it is much better than Fear of the Dark, in my opinion. There were quite a few tracks on FOTD that I could live without. There is not one single track on the new disc that I would do away with.

The more I listen to it, the more "The Legacy" is becoming one of my favorite Maiden tunes.

I forgot to mention before but Nicko McBrain is tearing it up on the drums on this whole CD. Tht was one of the first things that struck me when listening for the first time.

[Mr. Dick Purple]

Well actually FOTD hasn't great songs but it's one of the heaviest of Maiden, comparing to early era. Of course AOLAD is not the heaviest but I think that FOTD and AOLAD are quite in the same level, I like The legacy a lot too Im expeting the CD from amazon 

[Derby Greg]

Just got the new album

Highly recommended. Maiden seem to have been on stellar form since Bruce came back into the band.

Feels totally epic- only one song shorter than 5 mins.

Good Stuff?

Dude the Legacy?? is real class and for the greater love of God even though as you said is predictable is a good song 

[Kujo]

The Legacy could hardly be termed predictable. I played it for someone who is a big Maiden fan yesterday and he had no idea that it was them playing or Bruce singing. I love the guitar riff in this song as well. Kicks ass acoustic and electric.
