A Matter of Life & Death

[Profanity]

What does everyone think to Maidens new album?

I'm not seeing very much discussion about it, I even did a search.

 

[~Neurotica]

I like it.

 

[Ender Rises]

I haven't gotten a copy of it yet but I will the second I get money. From what I heard off of it it was very good.

 

[Teh Grimace]

i think i'll probably go the rest of my life without ever knowing what it sounds like.

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

haha its profanity!

 

[The Heartbreak Kid]

Its good, but not as good as Dance of Death. Bruce's voice is starting to go shit.

 

[Ender Rises]

^I agree, but the music is excellent. He isn't near as impressive as he once was.

 

[Blinded By Blood]

Bruce's voice is starting to go shit.

My thoughts exactly

 

[opethoid]

From what I've heard it sounds great, should be getting mine in the mail in the next few days. But I do agree that Bruce has lost his edge, maybe he needs to grow his hair out again.

 

[Hatebreeder]

I gave up on them with Dance of Death.

Well I personally think it's one of Maidens best albums. After my first few listens I just thought that this is the same stagnant sound as the previous 2 albums but after several listens I discovered that this is not the case.

Maiden have really excelled themselves, producing some of their most epic songs yet. their instrumental sections in some of the songs are the best ever. The instrumental section in Out Of The Shadows is even better than the one in Powerslave. They have experimented with new ideas such as a Symphonic sound - check out the string sound on For The Greater Good Of God and even a Power Metal sound is flavoured thanks to Nicko's explosive drumming.

IMO this is their best album since Seventh Son and has taken Maiden even further ahead in their position as greatest Metal band of all time.

Obviously you'll be predisposed to hating this album and look for criticisms rather than enjoying it.

Ha ha it's Profanity! I can't believe he has 32 THOUSAND fucking posts!

As for AMOLAD, I like it. A lot.

 

[metal paddy]

[The Heartbreak Kid]

GADD still? when is your 'girlfriend' home?

 

[Killbot]

GADD still? when is your 'girlfriend' home?

that's what I was thinking. this is all starting to sound very suspicous.

 

[The Heartbreak Kid]

that's what I was thinking. this is all starting to sound very suspicous.

Haha ill let the 'babes' be 'real' for now.

 

[Ender Rises]

Why on God's green earth are the faggiest band in all of fagdom in your sig? Poison LITERALLY look like women. Stage makeup I can understand, being an "actor", I've had to wear more than my fair share, but why the HELL would you WANT to dress in drag and play metal?

 

[Teh Grimace]

but they didn't play "metal", they played "pop-rock", so...

 

[Impudent]

The few songs I've heard from the new album were great!

 

[opethoid]

Just got it in the mail today, but haven't listened to it yet, what the hell am I waiting for.............
