    I saw them in Auburn Hills MI in 2006. They definitely played the entire album. I was SO happy when this song came up on the album, because they can absolutely destroy a mid-tempo grinder. I wish they would put out more songs like this. This is my second favorite song on the album, behind Brighter Than A Thousand Suns.

    6 out of the 7 songs they'd previously done full reactions for were from The Number of the Beast, Piece of Mind, or Powerslave - three consecutive, similar-sounding classic albums, so it's not too surprising if they had a rather narrow view on what Iron Maiden is like.

    Because 80s Maiden is prime. That said, this song has a catchy hook and mean riff. But it still suffers from the insufferable repetition of 2000s Maiden. They still put out some good tracks but never will they capture the 80s tone and energy again. Up the Irons.

    This song is a great example of the “modern” Iron Maiden. They sort of made the shift to more mature, less stadium rock music around the mid-2000s. This is my personal favorite Iron Maiden album. I highly recommend For the Greater Good of God or, if you want something even more modern, Hell on Earth is also incredible.

    To me that shift happened when Bruce came back in 2000 for Brave New World. I know 23 years was a long time ago but it doesn't feel like a long time to me and that's what I consider modern Maiden with their longer more complex song structures. I love everything they have done since 2000. Only disappointment to me was how dead the production sounds on Dance of Death because there are some great songs on it... I try to help it by boosting the treble but it still sounds dead.

    @@sinbysin666 Respectfully, I disagree with that statement. If you look at a lot of songs from A Matter of Life and Death through Senjutsu, Iron Maiden shifted to writing a lot of longer format songs that I’d certainly categorize as progressive. For the Greater Good of God, The Legacy, and Brighter Than a Thousand Suns are very similar in tone and writing to Benjamin Breeg. Sure, they still have their typical Iron Maiden bangers like Speed of Light or These Colours Don’t Run but by no means is Benjamin Breeg an oddity.

    I'm glad you liked this one. There are several other modern Iron Maiden songs (post 2000's) that are simply amazing, but unfortunately underrated by some of old school fans. Obviously, the classics will always be classics, and they deserve all the admiration they have. There's always highs and lows throughout the discography, but the band's entire repertoire has excellent songs, including the most recent albums. As a suggestion, i recommend tracks like "Dance of Death", "When the Wild Wind Blows", "The Book of Souls" and "For the Greater Good of God" Thanks guys for bringing to us another great reaction.

    Glad you guys are giving more Maiden a shot, their output after 2000 has pretty mixed opinions among fans but there are a lot of great songs. They have come to stick to this same songwriting formula more or less, long songs with a quiet intro, powerful verse and chorus with galloping interludes and guitar harmony lines before bringing it all back together with the verse and chorus, but their real strength is in the narratives they put into each song. Id also recommend Dance of Death, The Nomad, or For the Greater Good of God for songs with a similar sound. They have a talent for storytelling that is rare outside of folk songwriters, and yes they do play a lot of these songs live.

    They didn’t want to keep repeating similar riffs on every album, so with the classic lineup reunion in 1999, they didn’t just rehash songs like that could easily fit in with their classic 80s albums. They challenged themselves and wrote more progressive music and as a 6-piece band stretched their boundaries. This album is my personal favorite since 2000. So good from start to finish

    Thanks for this tidbit of information I've never heard before, that actually makes a lot of sense because there's definitely a slight change in style from "Brave New World" onward. "Brave New World" and Maiden's 1st Self Titled album are my favorite Maiden albums, "Strange World" (1st album, beautiful song) and "Blood Brothers" are my favorite Maiden songs. How do you feel about Maiden's first 2 albums?

    I think you guys would really enjoy the first two Iron Maiden albums with Paul Di'Anno on vocals. A rawer, grittier, almost Punk-like version of Iron Maiden. Not many react to this era, and some would argue it's still the best era of Maiden.

    Maiden started morphing into a prog metal band in the late 90s. Bruce Dickinson rejoined in 2000 and they continued down that tract ever since. This is from their 2006 release, "A Matter of Life and Death". This is actually one of the few songs written by guitarist Dave Murray. He doesn't write a lot, but when he does, it's fiyah. Maiden has six albums in this vein: Brave New World (2000), Dance of Death (2003), A Matter of Life and Death (2006), The Final Frontier (2010), The Book of Souls (2015), Senjutsu (2021). If this is your thing, you guys should stick with this era. Plenty of material to choose from.

    You guys are spot on with this one. Iron Maiden have been guilty of not filling space in there songs and being too busy on complicated arrangements. This song is definitely their best song of this century. The arrangement is straightforward and full sounding and Steve Harris the bassist and main song writer has actually just laid down a good solid bass line. The guitar solo is made so much better because of the simplified approach of the ryhthm behind it.

This album the band played these tracts live in the studio for the final recording. So it sounds more real and allowed them to nail it live too. Keep up the great work.

    Modern Maiden is cool but anything they did in the early days just blows any of their modern stuff out of the water, I personally don't really like Bruce's modern voice, I think he sounds a lot better when he sings in a higher register, and a lot of modern Maiden is Bruce singing low to mid, that's one of the problems I have with modern Maiden, and also I'm not the biggest fan of something they started doing post-brave new world, which is guitars and vocals doing the same melody at the same time, I mean they did that early but it wasn't that often, can't really remember many classic songs that have anything like that, anyway each to their own, I enjoy modern Maiden but Bruce's voice is the main weak point for me.
