About a really forgotten Iron Maiden disc that really kicks ass

[Erik]

The bonus CD on Japanese edition X-Factor. Contains three new studio tracks recorded in a later session than the album, and these (as unusual as overlooked Iron Maiden material is) have been almost completely forgotten by everyone, but I personally think they kick ass. Lots of energy and fuck-off attitude, and killer riffs and vocal lines. Lyrics are a bit shit but if you're an Iron Maiden fan and haven't heard these, I suggest you listen!

1. Justice of the Peace
2. I Live My Way
3. Judgement Day

Download "Judgement Day" and check out that first really old-school style Maiden riff and the KILLER "BY YOUR DEEDS/YOU WILL BE KNOWN/TIME WILL TELL/TRUTH WILL SHOW" vocal line.

Well, Justice of the peace and Judgement day were on the Man on the edge single that came out before the album. I know cause I bought it when it came out. Are you sure it's from a later session? "I live my way" was only available on the vinyl single I think. I'd have to check my Maiden collector's book to be sure.

I kind of like all those b-sides.

I'm not perfectly sure they're from a later session than the album but I'm 100% sure they're from a DIFFERENT session. And yeah, "I Live My Way" was not ONLY available on the vinyl single, as I said the Japanese X-Factor comes with all those three songs on a seperate bonus disc.

 

[Papa Josh]

yeah, all of those, except I Live My Way, are available on the Best of the B-Sides cd that came in the box set.

I've got the boxed set and reviewed the best of the b-sides for RC. I remember Judgement Day ruling, along with Blood on the Worlds Hands (live).
