9 people have an opinion different from me so rather than be mature and accept that it's a big world out there I'm going to bitch about it like that changes anything.
I really can't enjoy this album. It just sounds wrong. For some reason Virtual XI was way better - I don't hate Blaze Bayley. But I really can't dig this one except for a few songs.
@Segura2015 To be honest, this is too grimdark for my liking. Never liked Blaze's style, and I don't like the direction the 2 albums took to suit his style. Simply too slow, his voice doesn't have anything unique to it, and it all just feels bland.
I understand it's all part of opinion, but I perfectly understand people disliking this (I'm even surprised there are ONLY 7 dislikes).
Anyway, as long as you enjoy it and don't judge, 't's all good. It's all subjective.
@VideoGameMetal01 You misunderstood grimdark. Most metal songs have dark themes. Bruces stuff is just much more lively, faster, and powerful. This just feels slow, depressignly dull, no kick to it. Even the songs that were supposed to be fast paced and lively felt dead to me.
that is what i call talent not like those singer of these days who use electronic machines to have a great voice,when i listen to this song,its like if i was in a trans!!!omg i love and i completly love iron maiden,and ever shall i be wearing their t-shirt and being proud !!!that is the greatest group of the world who has never existed!!!!
I go to Iron Maiden (album) and Killers for that old rock/metal sound of Maiden, Number Of The Beast til No Prayer For The Dying for the classic Maiden sound, X Factor and Virtual XI for darker songs and Brave New World onwards for "modern" Maiden. Every album has a different sound :)
Honestly,I think I like Blaze more than anyone else.idk why but his 2 albums with Maiden just sound so bad ass as fuck.the melodies and tempos of the songs show the true talent of Maiden with these 2 albums,Idk why other people can't see that (or hear it I guess :p)
blaze is an amazing vocalist and teh live classics, i.e. the trooper sound so bad because they are tuned to match bruce, whereas blaze is a whole octave lower.. this is evidence that he is a good singer
@DarkGnasher wait.....the fact that he can sing an octave lower then bruce means hes a good singer? Your logic sucks. But that logic, Barry Manilow would be the greatest singer who ever lived
@12321Walrus dude my point was that to judge blaze you shouldnt use a song that was not written with his voice in mind... i must admit i worded that wrong though.. no need to bite im just saying, to judge blaze you should look at the x factor or virtual xi abums actually written with him.. 
@DarkGnasher I wont lie, that was confusing to read. My name is Blaze and reading it quiick confused me. BUT yes that makes much more sense. Sorry if i came off as an ass, i just thought that your logic was awful haha
@timberland1108 no, im just saying that you'll have to turn my brain into a useless lump of flesh for me to even think too listen to pop or rap. it has nothing to do with british, where did you get that idea?!?
@udot111 lol because im in a class to become a paramedic and subdural hematoma is a British name lol. but i agree with you irons maiden is the best.
@timberland1108 oh, I didnt know it was british in origin. I just thought of it because I did a backflip into the pool and whacked my head on the edge once. my teacher was an EMT once.
95% of teens these days listen to the same formulaic, crappy pop over and over again. If you're one of the 5% who still listens to real music, thumb this up, then copy and paste it to at least five videos. Don't let the spirit of rock and roll die
I worked with Blaze this week, not musically but in the factory i work at.. What a star he gave away signed CDs and had time for everyone,all the best to him....
it's just because this great album would be 200% greater with Bruce Dickinson on vocals. Bruce said more than once that he loves "The X-Factor"'s songs, so I'm sure he would do a perfect job (as always!) with them.
@ShredMaster79 This is just my opinion, BUT, Bruce would rape these songs. Just like he did on Death on the Road when they played Lord of the flies. These songs are ment for Blaze, just like Bruce songs are ment for Bruce.
@DeterminationForever i absolutely agree! It's just i can't imagine bruce singing this song, because, i love them from the beginning with Bailey's voice...Bailey has a dark voice and x factor and virtual are dark so bailey voice fits perfect!
Its too bad that probably we never hear this song again live. I am absolutely great fan of Bruce's voice but this song is one of the best Iron Maiden ever did despite the very weak production. I always thought that the real magnificence of Iron Maiden is more evident if we see what songs they have in their storage of unplayed or rarely presented songs. Fortunes of war is just one but i would continue with Flash of the blade, Duellists(what a middle section!), and of course Alexander etc
The first two verses are extremely haunting. Im a son of a Vietnam Veteran and have seen the pain first hand living with a veteran growing up. This songs lyrics really stir the emotions.
Im am 100% sure this album would of been Incredible with bruce just for the fact that he would of hit some insane sirens on the chorus "Fortunes of Waaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrr!"
@87themoonwalker so very very well said,I totally agree with you,when this album came out I did not like it much,but as the years has gone by,I now see that this is a very fine album with some haunting songs and a great theme about war,I guess songs about the vietnam war never grows old.
When Bruce said he would leave maiden,I hoped and prayed that Paul would have returned instead we got blaze,and he did ok I think,but nothing and no-one beats Bruce. not even D'ianno.
You're right, they each bring their own thing to Maiden. I'm glad Bruce is their main and current singer, that's the way it should be, but I also appreciate Paul's and Blaze's contributions. Maiden's discography is richer for it, even if not all their songs are classics.
@87themoonwalker Exactly!!!!!! thats why maiden is may fav. band ever!!!!! its like having 3 bands in one i mean every era has its own unique feel and i love em all! UP THE IRONS!!!
everyone immediately discredits and disowns the two Blaze albums just because of no Bruce....im not a Blaze fanboy, i thought he was absolutely terrible singing Bruces songs and Bruce is far superior vocally and is way better but this is a REALLY good album..and fits Blazes voice perfect...imo theres only 2 Maiden albums that didnt do it for me and that was No Prayer and Virtual XI...out of 15 thats pretty damn good ...and those 2 are alot better than most bullshit groups release today
Always liked this album ... Baily suited the overall tone of the lyrics ( Steve's divorce etc) ... i' ve been a Maiden fan since i was a nipper and although i am a die-hard Dickinson fan i can appreciate the Blaze era .... COME ON YOU IRONS
I don't see what is wrong with this album. The sound matched well with Blaze's dark tone. I didn't mind Blaze vocally and I thought the album overall was above average
True fans appreciate all of Iron Maiden's music...so instead of bashing Blaze shouldn't we be nerdraging about Leave It To Bieber instead?...Then again true fans don't give a fuck about Bieber to even mention the name...
Few people judge Blaze's work for what he brang to the band: his studio work was awesome, and his live performances were poor. Because how come a singer with such a vocal range can sing 'The Trooper' or 'Hallowed Be Thy Name' every night? Tours were terrible with Blaze - he lost his voice during both. But the band should have tuned the songs down so that they fitted more Blaze's voice. Anyway, I love the X-Factor and I love Virtual XI. Underrated music. UP THE IRONS FROM FRANCE!
both bruce and blaze's era were outstanding,although bruce's songs are ungetable for they're the spirit of maiden,blaze gave us a new maiden not worse than bruce's
i think blaze was able to give Maiden a new direction in times when Bruce Bruce was more into his solo-projects than maiden. You can line Blaze in a row with Paul d´Anno and Bruce Dickinson. By the way - their new album is one of their best (after a few turns)
This is a song you have to listen to alot for it sink in. I used to think it was really boring, but now I like it even more then Sign Of The Cross. It's far less repetitive than most of Arry's epics, and that intro is better than you would hear in most film scores.
POWERFUL lyrics. Anyone who has served time in a warzone can easily relate to what Blaze is saying and really anyone who feels disconnected and having inner troubles
what all these songs say, all lyrics from this album, they wouldnt sound the same with dickinson as the singer, they need blaze´s voice to be what they are, epics!
I can't speak english, so forgive me if i make a mistake. When i first hear that album i think that this is real piece of shi*. But when i grow up i understand that this album is like wine. You must grow up to understand the darkness and beauty that they put in every song. So, now i can say only one thing - when Blaze come to Poland with next shows i love to buy him a fu*** big mug of beer. He deserved.
can someone help me please, i remember watching an animated official video of one iron maidens song, it shows a guy running through a factory, being chased by robots or summat and then he picks something up and then has some kinda haluccination where hes running through fields of grass. anyone know it?
i NEVER HATED THIS ALBUM...I BOUGHT THIS ALBUM WHEN I SAW IT IN A CORNER...THEN I REALIZED WOW. WHAT DID I BRING...I LOVE THIS ALBUM MORE THAN SOME OF THEIR EARLY ALBUMS...VERY WISE PIECE OF WORK.
It's funny that, 10 years ago, this album was called all kinds of bad names from people; and now eveyone praises it.
I love how people hate new concepts, ideas and styles in music; but once they get a little old everyone starts thinking that it was good, compared to the "shit" they have at present time.
@Owneador1337 That is the beauty of Iron Maiden's songs. Those "Shit" Iron Maiden songs will grow on your no matter what, next thing you know they're one of your favourite songs and you can't stop listening to them.
Well I was making a CD of classic rock/metal but I think it's about to turn into an Iron Maiden CD. All of their songs are just too good. UP THE IRONS!!!
I'll listen to any iron maiden song without doubt, be it Di'anno, Bruce or Blaze cos it's about the emotion and style that make maiden who they are :)
This is my favorite album now :D

Hello metalheads.
Instead of a Metal rebellion i propose a new plan.

2. Watch more and more metal videos to get it to the top of the youtube vid list
If you like this idea, thumbs it up JUST so people can see it, and also spread it around if you like this idea
Lets show that metal kicks ass!

i think blaze was able to give Maiden a new direction in times when Bruce Bruce was more into his solo-projects than maiden. You can line Blaze in a row with Paul d´Anno and Bruce Dickinson. By the way - their new album is one of their best (after a few turns)

I've always really liked this song for its fantastic instrumentation and some of Blaze's songs kinda work in my mind. This is one of them.

This is a song you have to listen to alot for it sink in. I used to think it was really boring, but now I like it even more then Sign Of The Cross. It's far less repetitive than most of Arry's epics, and that intro is better than you would hear in most film scores.

POWERFUL lyrics. Anyone who has served time in a warzone can easily relate to what Blaze is saying and really anyone who feels disconnected and having inner troubles

what all these songs say, all lyrics from this album, they wouldnt sound the same with dickinson as the singer, they need blaze´s voice to be what they are, epics!

I can't speak english, so forgive me if i make a mistake. When i first hear that album i think that this is real piece of shi*. But when i grow up i understand that this album is like wine. You must grow up to understand the darkness and beauty that they put in every song. So, now i can say only one thing - when Blaze come to Poland with next shows i love to buy him a fu*** big mug of beer. He deserved.

It's funny that, 10 years ago, this album was called all kinds of bad names from people; and now eveyone praises it.
I love how people hate new concepts, ideas and styles in music; but once they get a little old everyone starts thinking that it was good, compared to the "shit" they have at present time.

@Owneador1337 That is the beauty of Iron Maiden's songs. Those "Shit" Iron Maiden songs will grow on your no matter what, next thing you know they're one of your favourite songs and you can't stop listening to them.
