ABOUT IRON MAIDEN:
Iron Maiden are an institution. Over the course of six decades they have come to embody a spirit of fearless creative independence, ferocious dedication to their fans, and a cheerful indifference to their critics that’s won them a following that spans every culture, generation, and time-zone. A story of gritty determination and courageous defiance of the naysayers, theirs has been an adventure like no other.
The band’s immense discography includes the studio albums ‘The Number Of The Beast’, ‘Piece Of Mind’, ‘Powerslave, ‘Somewhere In Time’, ‘Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son’, ‘Fear Of The Dark’, ‘The Final Frontier’ and ‘The Book Of Souls’ which have spawned many classic hits as ‘The Trooper’, ‘Wasted Years’, ‘Hallowed Be Thy Name’, ‘Wasting Love’, ‘Run To The Hills’, ‘Aces High’, ‘Rime Of The Ancient Mariner’ and ‘2 Minutes to Midnight’.

I agree with you 100%!!!! Judas Priest is my second all time favorite band ever, but in my opinion Iron Maiden is the greatest band ever and they have been my all time favorite for over thirty years. The music they have made in all their eras is the most amazing music I have ever heard.

I'm just gonna point out how Nicko Mcbrain is phenomenal in this song.

[@susannewilliamsson8339]

Jimmy Nicko is phenomenal indeed, I think he´s worthy of massive credit for this albums great quality sound !!!

[@mmjr0306]

Nikko mcbrain is the greatest heavy metal drumner in history. 24 piece set. Every fucking one is hit during 1 song. Insane that he hits each one out of instinct just like a guitarist. With enough strength or just enough to echo. He is truly a master.

This was the very first Maiden song I ever heard! Before this song, I didn't think metal could be good. Then I heard Maiden and that all changed.

[@kmsharley75]

Welcome to the Iron Maiden journey

[@DRN-kt1ql]

The Red and The Black was my first!

[@prateekgautam5514]

I envy you all, I want to feel like I like felt for the first time I listened to them. I want to experience that again!

The only band that compares to Maiden is Cannibal Corpse.

[@leandrovr13]

I had this same feeling 20 years ago when I listened The Wickerman for the very first time! Once you have this feeling, there's no turning back! heheh

[@pcorcoran100]

The production on this is sublime. Stick on a pair of really good headphones and immerse yourself.

[@susannewilliamsson8339]

Theese guys have raised the bar, going from unforgettable classics to IMMORTALS....and the true metal ICONS are supreme in their progressive music, unmatched, untouched and comparable to none, absolutely none...

[@danielamc3212]

Iron Maiden representa tanto en mi vida...cada canción, cada riff, cada grito, cada plabra, es un lenguaje íntimo que todos los aquí presentes hemos sentido tan nuestro.The best band forever

[@susannewilliamsson8339]

[@EddieLJ18]

There will never be a band like this one. That makes you feel the same thing these guys make you feel on stage. Best band of all time.

[@Wabin22]

I'm honestly very interested in hearing what people think of this song? At first I didn't like it very much, it felt very bland but over time it has grown on me to become one of the best of the Book of Souls album.

[@harryanus9040]

Wabin22 I wish all there songs sounded like this.

[@ColinBrain]

I think it's quite good however it has some weak points. I find the little drum fill section that bridges the two different parts of the song quite awkward and I wish they did something different there. They repeat the chorus far too many times at the end and the spoken monologue is sorta random but what can y'do

[@yehohanan66]

in my case, this song caught me from the first time i heard it. I found it really melodic and agressive at certain point. But my favorite from the album is The book of souls, that's a magnificient piece of art.

[@johntriplett4470]

However good it is, this live performance is far better than the studio release. This sounds like a finished song by comparison.

[@aprofondir]

It's the darkest Iron Maiden song ever

I remember when The Book of souls was published, at the beginning I didn't get enough enthusiasm cause I didn't feel engaged with their previous one, TFF. Then I decided to give it a chance first on streaming starting to play the first track: I fell in absolute love with this song then a year after, hearing to it live on my country... Was just a magical experience! Thank you Iron Maiden!
