  • Such a long intro but once it gets in its sick!

    Up The Irons

  • just love how maiden is better than they've ever been--and ive been a fan since 82--most bands go downhill but not maiden--up the irons!!

  • Que intro foi essssssssssssaaaaaa???????

  • 8 pagodeiros sentiram falta de "ela me deixou" na letra da musica

  • just orgasmed at 4:37, UP THE IRONS

  • if the rest of the album was as awesome as satellite 15 it would not only be the best maiden album ever, but i would be in a coma of bliss. the rest of the album is good but holy hell the intro takes it to another level of maiden awesomeness. i can only imagine them opening up a concert with the intro to get the crowd pumped.

  • Is ti just me, or does that opening bassline sound different every time I listen to it?

    That's why I love maiden,. you never know what you're gonna get.

  • @MaidenMo23 ..I'm glad you didnt say Maiden was like a box of chocolates.......I might of had to reach through the monitor and choke you..lmao...........LONG LIVE THE BEAST

  • UP THE IRONS FROM OUTER SPACE

  • i bought the mission special edition cd two days ago on ebay!

  • i love this album

  • The intro could just be a song.

  • probably the most epic opening to an album I've ever heard...

  • the riff what starts at 4:39 is totally awesome UP THE IRONS FROM FINLAND!!!!!

  • Whan an awesome and fitable intro for this album. Its just perfect!!!!!!

  • I simply LOVE every other song on the album except this one. I think it got "popped up" for the music video or something. Oh well. Man Who Would Be King is the best!!!!

  • they teazed us  and teazed us now we can ahhhhh

  • Wow this album is fucking awesome . Im shocked how good it is .WOW The Album Cover is badass as well

    UP THE IRONS FROM AMERICA

  • i really love this song,i fall in love with the riff first time i heard it and this song makes me feel happy

  • so, it's number 1 in the UK.... now it's america's turn! anyone know it's current position, or a web-site that lists the positions?

  • @werenick999 I think it's at number 3 in the US!

  • @pruiz94 really? come on guys! let's give it a push to first!

  • Thats what I call an Industrial Strength opening....... to a fantastic album . why does everybody have to compare every maiden album to each other...... Rate this on it's own merit and it's the best new music I've heard in 4 or 5 years.....LONG LIVE THE BEAST.....

  • @WrathchildNH Thank you! Someone with sense. I get annoyed with all the comparrison myself. This is Maiden, simple. Up the Irons.

  • @WrathchildNH I LOVE THIS SONG! Gave me goosebumps! At this stage of their career, after 30+ years, I must say, I am impressed by their ability to continue to put out classic metal that blows away everything out there today! Metal does not get any better than this! UP THE IRONS!!!

  • whats with the blips at 235?

  • @high8us its at 2:28 btw, and they're made by a guitar with a fast delay setting on. Its meant to sound "spacey", if that helps lol

  • UP THE FUCKI' IRONS!! MAIDEN THE BEST METAL BAND EVER!!!

  • This made my day

    "According to Music Week, The Final Frontier has secured a number one position in the United Kingdom album charts just a day after its release, selling 22,000 copies in its first day of sales to beat Eminem's Recovery, which sold 7,000 copies in its first week"

    Maiden is still king! Up The Irons!

  • @werenick999

    ya, its good to know that there is still some good music today that gets more recognition than the crappy rap and pop that is popular music today

  • This...song...too...good..can'­t...breath...anym.

  • whats with the shitto drum machine? bit tomy isnt it?

  • The first half of the song was the only thing on the entire album I did not like. Not that it was bad, it just didn't appeal to me. i thought the rest of the album was amazing

  • @rockerhippi

    Funny enough, it is the only part I like :D

  • @rockerhippi Uhh quit bitching abo;ut the fucking intro. It builds suspense.

  • Rock208hurricane You are correct, thay change the music I think I have to listen more to the entire Album, Once againg I am a BIG TIME fan I see then 6 time live all ready so is diffrent music for my ears, That All

  • The Intro Is Amazing Iron Maiden Surprise Us One More Time :) Up The Irons Maidenonians Greece

  • I hope that will be next year setlist Satellite 15... The Final Frontier El Dorado Wrathchild The Trooper Mother of Mercy The Reincarnation Of Benjamin Breeg These Colours Don't Run The Alchemist Coming Home Brave New World Run to the Hills Fear of the Dark Iron Maiden Encore: The Number Of The Beast Hallowed Be Thy Name Running Free
  • fuckin sick!

  • this coming from a musician...it's not impossible to play this with a single bass drum and that's exactly what Nicko fucking Mcbrain does!! accept it....

  • @regelsnet balls. he can play at that speed, but only for short bursts. why do u think he used a double pedal for face in the sand?

  • metal from hell!!! wuuaaaaoooooooo a epic intro !!!!

    never seen before on maiden

  • This is really cool, I love it. Great song !!!!

  • Very cool intro! 

  • This is a fucken "X-Factor" album wit bruce singing XD

    sorry maiden.. dont like it at all..

    but some fans do so ehhh good job i guess.. not worth the wait in my opinion though

  • @haydenwce27 omg same here! like i heard thunder really loud and it started down pouring!!

    crazy. 

  • 30 years have passed but they are still able to write song(s) so different from anything else they've written so far. This really shows their greatness.

    P.S. Second half of the song is excellent but first half is.... EPIC!

  • why the fuck is some dickhead talking about Ron Paul on all these maiden clips

  • I love the Irons... but all the mellow intros kinda suck. I guess it would be ok if they were 50 or something.... oh wait... i guess it's ok then

  • the intro reminds me stuff from Steve Vai and Gordian Knot. Very well arranged and produced. I am listening IM for over 15 years and they made really good progress.

    But still Powerslave is my fav. album from IM.

  • The best part of this song is the 0:00 to 8:42 :D, UP THE FUCKIN IRONS! FROM ARGENTINA!!!

  • Only Maiden can do that fucking amazing progresive intro

    Up The Irons... from Ecuador

  • I have follow iron maiden from 1985 and all previus album has been great this one here for me is very POOR maybe becouse is the first time I am listen to there songs but I love old timmer song. My opinion

  • @elsiesassumi

    The album is not poor at all. The songs are amazing! They have to make their music sounds different. The music cannot be like 1985 or 1992 in 2010. Songs like : Mother of Mercy and The Alchemist are examples of this.

  • I nearly jizzed my pants at 4:37

  • Iron maiden is the greatest band to walk the earth. So quit bitching about intro's and dumb shit. They are doing what they want. Not what you think you want.

  • @landoneastabrook666 Well said

  • I dunno what is gayer, this song or Ron Paul.

  • @TerrorWarrior5000 ??? why?

  • @TerrorWarrior5000 this song has nothing to do with ron paul- go die you attention starved fagget. this album is excellent.

  • @projectzero101 This album is full of anti-preemptive war and anti-bank sentiments, just like Ron Paul.

  • I love it when the second part of this track kicks in.

    Iron Maiden are the greatest band in existence.

    Everyone else should quit because they're never going to reach the peak that Iron Maiden CONSTANTLY hit.

  • @Aurainmaker even though I'm an aspiring musician, i COMPLETELY AGREE!! God DAMNIT I FUCKING LOVE THEM!!!

  • Nicko doesn't play double bass. There is a recent interview about that on a site called music radar...check it out

  • very boring :(

  • @Heaven3003 Don't be so hard on yourself

  • The intro is Adrian's demo on a drum machine.

  • one word

    Subscribe for his effort to put this on good job man!

    UP THE IRONS!! FROM UK!!

  • anyone else wondering how a sci-fi concept album has anything to do with Ron Paul and the war in the Middle East?

  • Dave Murray FTW

  • Anyone else just had a 8:42 eargasm?

  • @saints39 yah

  • Nicko finally using the double kick!

  • @high8us he doesnt use double kick

  • @high8us he doesnt use a double kick, he swears against it he says its undrummerish, i believe the beggining is just an intro and they used a drum machine, or just nicko is being a god like usual and playing it with a single pedal

  • @newianpaice Nickos god, he would never let a drum amchine out play him :P

  • UP THE IRONS FROM MOTHERFUCKING VIRGINIA!!

    Camped out at a Best Buy to buy it when they opened up, now I have the regular version in addition to the Mission Edition and the Double Vinyl. :D

  • @tyranids4ever i got mine on the mail 20 minutesago and i jumped like a crazy motherfucker ,i lived my life to the full i have no regrets ,the final frontier,the final frontier, i never listened to the version of the album leaked ,i waited this long and is worth it every single penny,if this album was 200 bucks ,i wouldve spend it ,faith in maiden always ,up the irons

  • I m not a drummer but I think this is immposible to play this on single pedal, without triggers or something

  • really glad i decided to listen to this on here first rather than just outright buying it. not a good album from where i'm sitting, dance of death is 1000 times better, so's brave new world.

  • awesome shit, i don't like silly intros, but this is superb

  • The first half of this song is out of this world

  • @Pathos62 literally!

  • That song must be epic live.....

  • Cant believe this.. Album is so magical. First time i heard it i was like: this cant be real it was so awesome stuff! UP THE IRONS FROM FINLAND!!!!!!

  • lol it always has to be greeks uploading unreleased music.

    same happened with nevermore's TOC,it was some greek

  • Is Nicko still only rocking one pedal? If so 3:05 is pretty impressive...

  • @UpTheIrons1994 It's a drum programmed by Adrian)))) NO JOKES.

  • @NearlyKnight no wrong

  • @UpTheIrons1994 yes he only uses one pedal

  • I am a strong Judeochristian man who supports preemptive war and defending Israel, not a fake Christian like Ron Paul who is anti-war.

  • This song is great!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Fuck this gay ass homophobic queer Ron Paul shit and fuck Iran Maiden for supporting Ron Paul's ideas.

  • @TerrorWarrior5000

    Can someone explain the Ron Paul reference? Eh?

  • @Bobdyland I'm tired of people bashing banks and wars! That is fucking Ron Paul bullshit 101 fuck it I just want to fucking scream I can't take this surrender monkey shit any longer!

  • @TerrorWarrior5000

    Jesus, take a xanax son. Or become a mercenary or something, I dunno. Ron Paul, honestly.

  • @Bobdyland Fuck you.

  • @TerrorWarrior5000

    Oh dear.

  • @Bobdyland Blow it out your ass you homophobic queer.

  • @TerrorWarrior5000

    I can only assume you're having a laugh. Homophobic queer? Good one sonny.

  • Comment removed

  • @TerrorWarrior5000 ALL YOU DO IS KEEP POSTING CRAP ABOUT RON PAUL WHOEVER THE FUCK RON PAUL IS???ARE YOU SICK OR HAVE YOU NOTHING BETTER TO DO THAN WANK OFF ALL OVER THE INTERNET ABOUT UR BOYFRIEND,EITHER WAY WHAT THE FUCK HAS IT GOT TO DO WITH IRON MAIDEN BECAUSE EVERYBODY ELSE BAR ONE OR TWO EXCEPTIONS ARE HERE TO CELEBRATE & PAY HOMAGE TO A GREAT GREAT BAND AND MARVELOUS NEW COMPOSITION OF MUSIC.SO TAKE YOUR BOYFRIEND OR PORN STAR AND GO WANK ALL OVER A BOYBAND SITE WHICH SHOULD SUIT YOU!

  • THE ALBUMS OUT EVERYONE GO BUY IT MAKE IT NUMBER 1 EVERYWHERE!!!!!!

  • the intro is amazing it sets the scene for the entire album and builds suspense for the final frontier its in one song because of the link try listening to the lyrics

  • double bass ? nicko wtf ? :D

  • @zeroxcrusher Nicko used a double-bass in 'Face in the Sand'.

  • @zeroxcrusher . I think it`s double pedal. Up the Irons.

  • @zeroxcrusher Actually, Nicko doesn't use double bass ever, he can do up to straight 32nd's with just one pedal, lol. He says they're "undrummerish" , that is a direct quote, haha. He only ever used them on one song, he says it was The Reincarnation of Benjamin Breeg, but I can't hear it on there.

  • i think that the intro should be a separate song

  • This album is unbeliveble

    Up the Irons!

  • final frontier (second part of the song) is so kickass!! up the irons!!

  • What a good song!!

  • Wow, There isn't a short song on the album is there? anyways, sounds good overall.

  • Cool song.Period.

  • My favorite part of the album IS this intro. Maiden doing something different is usually pleasant.

  • UP THE IRONS!!!!!!!!!!

  • new album kick ass \m/

  • such a creepy feeling...awesome :)

  • Amazing intro!!! Nicko kicks out the shit from his basdrum :)

  • @wwwEMPTYDREAMSnet it's an electronic drum on satellite 15, nicko comes later haha

  • go out and buy this...lets make it number 1

  • imagine this song live!! the first 3 minutes would be like rime of the ancient mariner

  • Intro ... OK! Something new for Maiden... but the song final frontier, it's a good song .. in a Scorpions' album.... rock and roll... it's not Maiden's heavy metal!

  • The BEST intro I have heard on an Iron Maiden record!!!!

  • @SrAnonimo19 would that not be the only Into?

  • Maiden lives for ever , i dont care if the intro is to long if the lyrics are sad. . .

    I just have 3 words to say to all of you crazy Iron Maiden fans, probably the best 3 words ever said . . . .

    UP THE IRONS!!!!!

    Iron Maiden for ever . . .

  • The band members of Iron Maiden are becoming more mature (they are older guys now) and now they want to endeavor into higher musical realms, "fans" that dislike this are hence immature, Pink Floyd lovers... doesn't this music intro ring a bell?

    The album is very complex, I am not sure if I like it more than the previews three but is very elaborated, its Metal at the best it can be. PERIOD

  • This songs is awesome but the lyrics are sad though. Up the Irons \m/

  • Seems like the wait wasn't for nothing. Holy shit...

  • Since when have the ever put the intro they would use on the road as the intro into the album? It doesn't fit the actual song and isn't even a song itself. At least Ides of March was like 1:42. This was 4:30ish. Far too long before getting to music.

  • 5 people need to go suck a dick.

  • @stephen815able

    Get the shotgun and find those 5 people

  • JUST PERFECT

  • This song reminds me of Boston's Foreplay/Longtime or Rush's 2112: Overture, Temple of Syrinx

  • This is Maiden! Fuck yeah! Those who don't think so....... well you are just living in the past. Awesome intro. Heavy fucking Maiden! They never let us down. Stop complaining.

  • This is Maiden! Buy The Album!

  • Comment removed

  • like. like. like!!!

  • Amazing song! Up the Irons!

  • Iron Maiden once again has not let us down...amazing stuff. It sounds like they've gone back to Powerslave but are still evolving! If this album doesn't reach #1...I will give up on music.

  • @metallicguns95 Don't give up on music, give up on those who make the music trash to day.

  • @metallicguns95 Me too.

  • this was actually just a demo smith did and harris heard it and kept it as is. you can even hear when the drum machines double kicks repeat over and over, but still a good intro and even better song once it really starts

  • Iron Maiden is SICK. CAN'T GET ENOUGH!!!! it's always magic music, whatever they do its PERFECT!!!

  • Comment removed

  • wow intro is so fucking amazing....

  • I just listened to a bunch of the songs from the album, and sounds like they're going for a different sound with this one. A little more progressive I think. It all sounds awesome though!

  • I think the beginning rules ! It is just awesome album intro !

  • That intro is AWFUL

  • @lewickerman fuck off douche

  • Guys stop complaining about the first 3 minutes. That's called an album intro. I think it fits the song and the album theme perfectly.

  • @WickerM4n -Exactly! I haven't heard Maiden do a true intro song/piece this cool since 'Ides of March' back in, what? 1981?! AWESOME!!!

    UP THE IRONS!!!

  • Comment removed

  • NICKO rulez!!!!

  • The first 4:37 is actually Sooty, casting a quick izzy wizzy let's get busy to operate everything, even Bruce's vocals

  • i would say: 1)The Number of The Best.

    2)A Matter of Life and Death

    3)The Final Frontier

    of course the differences from the albums are very small. If i would have to rate them the best will be 10/10 and the worst 9.86/10 :D

  • The 2 songs didn't merge very well but i can imagine that being a great intro to live sets!

  • It caaaaaan't be that this is the last album of the epic MAIDEN !!!! :(

    This ownssssssss, they cannot stop makingthese coooool sooongs :(

    But support'em ;)
