The Wickerman is my favourite from BNW too!
This is the sort of song I thought Maiden had forgotten how to write.

Agreed

The great tracks from BNW are as follows:
The Wickerman
Ghost Of The Navigator
The Fallen Angel
and depending what mood I am in, Dream Of Mirrors!

All the rest I skip, but it was easily worth it for those 4 songs alone in my opinion

Exactly!! I even agree with Dream of Mirrors. As much as I lvoe the song, I don't often feel like playing it.

Yep, Dream Of Mirrors does seem like it goes on a bit sometimes, then theres other times I love it!

 

[Southy]

never gotta be in the right mood for Dream of Mirrors is a personal fav on the album

I like BNW, including Nomad. The only songs i don't like that much are Blood Brother and The Mercenary.

The thing about BNW is that does not have a handful of tracks that are unanimously liked by everyone.

You look at the old Maiden albums, NOTB, POM, PS, SIT & SSOASS...there are undeniably great, great songs on those albums that everybody loves. There are some very good songs on BNW, but no absolute classic killer tracks. Maiden are past their best, creatively and will never sound as tough/heavy as they did circa 81-88. Their sound and songs seems to be watered down, stretching songs out for too long, or there's not enough fire & brimstone like in the old days.

Sorry about my grammatical errors in that post, i tried to edit, but it wouldn't let me.

 

[Southy]

They would still have alot of that old imagination if Steve let Bruce and Adrian have a bigger writing role IMO
