    Esoteric Symbolism of the Heavy Metal Hand Horns

    I thought this was pretty cool when I came across this from 1935, by occult/astrology/ tarot writer, C. C. Zain. Keep in mind this is written in 1935 in his book, Spiritual Astrology: This blindness of devoting the energies solely to the gross, with no thought for the finer experiences of life...

    Multi-dimensional Lemmy Tribute Video

    This is off the charts nuts! Nita who played Dave Murray parts in The Iron Maidens is playing guitar here in Alice Cooper band, playing a Motorhead song tribute to Lemmy, with Alice's bassist singing and Alice on back-up, with the actual Dave Murray on lead guitar at a small club in Maui! You...

    ALICE COOPER Guitarist NITA STRAUSS: 'ORIANTHI Fans Hate Me'

    When "N'Roll" is placed after "Rock" are we to assume this refers to 1965 and before like Chuck Berry and Jerry Lee Lewis? But didn't Nita purposefully screw up the Rhime of the Ancient Mariner's solo occasionally just because she hated that song? Nita seems to be from the Dream Theater style...

    Your Honest Review of Book of Souls

    Listen to Janick's solo in somewhere around 9 minutes in The Red and the Black, imagine a young Hesher at Guitar Center in around 1987 trying to show off to all the customer in the store is newly learned fast licks.

    Your Honest Review of Book of Souls

    I think there's a Seventh Son riff there too somewhere. But compare A Matter of Life and Death tot his, since that wasn't that long ago. The Longest Day, These Colours Don't Run and Brighter Than a Thousand Suns. People may complain that they were not like the classic songs, but just looking...

    Your Honest Review of Book of Souls

    Have you noticed some of the songs sound like rehashings of older songs? That "woahhh woaahhh" part is weird don;t you think?

    Your Honest Review of Book of Souls

    So I'm the only one here who thinks this album sucks and Iron Maiden has shown us with the last 2 albums they can't write good songs anymore?

    Your Honest Review of Book of Souls

    I am just curious of your honest opinions, negative and positive. I needed to hear it more as I was hopping it would grow on me, so I just listened to it all the way through, and my opinion is it is one of the worst Iron Maiden albums with Bruce, despite the epic look and feel to it. I am...

    ALICE COOPER Guitarist NITA STRAUSS: 'ORIANTHI Fans Hate Me'

    WOW! I knew Nita played with Alice Cooper for that Hollywood Bowl with Motley Crue but I had no idea she was now an official member! That is absolutely incredible! What a great band to play in. So can we now all assume she knows how he does the guillotine act when his head is chopped off into a...

    Iron Maiden Announces U.S. Tour Dates

    A Matter of Life and Death grabbed me right away and I could not stop listening to it back when I first got it. I thought it was such a great modern day Maiden album. Final Frontier sounded so generic to me and couldn't get myself to even listen to it more than once or twice. So, I think I have...

    Iron Maiden Announces U.S. Tour Dates

    I am still confused about this new album. My first response is "Uh, what did I just listen to?" I don't mean it is bad or I don't like it, I may end up really liking it, but I am still not sure what they were going for here. But I didn't get The Final Frontier either. Book of Souls is just...

    Mosh Pit Goes Full Bonkers at Iron Maidens Paladinos Show

    As The Iron Maidens put on a spectacular show last Saturday at Paladinos, it turns out me showing up in sandals wasn't really the best idea. There are many things Millenials get criticized of being too dumbed down to handle, but I never thought a Mosh Pit (Slam Pit for the non-thrash inclined...

    Megadeth disintegrates, Broderick and Drover both quit

    So I guess it's a good thing I saw them open for Maiden recently. But Rust in Peace is the only epic album right?

    Phill Rudd of AC/DC Arrested- Met im at an Iron Maidens Show

    Ah thanks Linda for clearing that up. I was so hoping it was Phill Rudd because it made so much of a better story. I thought you were joking when you said he was the AC/DC drummer and he relaly got all butt hurt about it and all up in my face. Later his drunk British friends almost got violent...
