From our good friends at Blabbermouth:

IRON MAIDEN To Release New Single In Early Summer - Mar. 31, 2003

IRON MAIDEN are nearing completion of the mixing process for their as-yet-untitled follow-up to 2000's "Brave New World", due later in the year through Sony/Columbia Records. "We should be finished the first stage of mixing the IRON MAIDEN album next week," producer Kevin Shirley revealed via his web site. "I'll be off to New York next weekend to attend a mastering session with George Marino [at Sterling Sound Studios], then back to complete the final stage of MAIDEN, which will be all the 5.1 surround sound mixes, and we should be all done by the end of April. This doesn't mean that there'll be product two weeks later, because with all the packaging and artwork still to be finalized, and release schedules to be set up all over the world, it may take a few more months before it sees the dark of night, but you'll probably see a new single by the time they hit the stage on the first leg of their 'Give Me Ed.' tour!"

Rumours of the single already being delayed are apparently unfounded.

Seems they got it under their belt pretty quick though. The album will no doubt be delayed quite alot, but oh well, still good news.

 

[Winmar]

Should be great. Where's the solo album Bruce promised in 2000 though?

Lake Of Tears released it instead Winmar!

 

[Wrathchild]

New Maiden single = more B-sides to download because it won't get a local release, then they'll say they haven't sold enough records over here to justify touring .

On the plus side, I'm quite looking forward to the new album, as long as Adrian writes more than he did on BNW and they include the acoustic song.

Maiden singles sometimes get released here, you just have to look hard for them.

 

[phlogiston]

I always get Maiden singles. What's so hard about finding them?

Ohh, locally released. Maybe not so often then...

 

[Winmar]

Lake Of Tears released it instead Winmar! !

That was nice of them! Did they clone him or something?

 

[spawn]

Pretty much Winmar, musically anyway, so I guess they cloned Roy Z really, the vocalist is no Brucey but he gets the job done, go buy Headstones by Lake Of Tears and you shall understand their greatness!
