Now I consider myself a Maiden fan right from the start. Look at my profile for proof. However, I CANNOT FREAKIN' STAND this album. Talk about something overblown, pompous and, even worse, just changes rhythms SO many time in each of their 12 mintue songs it is maddening. This album was a train-wreck, IMO, and Maiden themselves seemed puzzled in many an interview as to why the Amercians never got behind it. Their tour with it was a disaster thus bringing about the Back in Time tour to try to recoup what they lost with that miserable tour.
I am willing to accept that I didn't give it much of a chance. Suffered through it twice and put it on the shelf never to be heard again. To me, Nostra was 1000x better. [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by J.D. DIAMOND from Wednesday, May 06, 2009 3:58:29 AM)
