I don't like The Making of this or that, until maybe after something becomes a classic, then I might want to see how it was made...

Who cares how shit was made...

So far, that Benjamin Breeg song is my least favorite track...

The first song in that video is really good sounding...

The album is due out 2 weeks from Tomorrow.

There will be a special edition with a DVD with an hour long documentary on the making of, as well as a shitload of other extras.

Can't say Maiden don't treat their fans right by giving them value for their money, unlike a majority of other artists in the music biz....

That's my least favorite track also.


Why is this receiving the most promotion?

Benjamin Breeg's ok but I think The Legacy is the stand out track. Now that song kicks major ass!

Benjamin Breeg is a completely ficticious character Maiden made up to promote the album. Kinda corny if ya ask me.

Oh my, did I just say something negative about Maiden out loud???

It's highly corny.

It's something KISS would do.

Why is all the attention going to such a shitty (in comparison to the rest of the tracks) song?

I love that song...yeah, yeah, I know. I will say it tends to drag on a bit. Definitely not the best on the album, but not the worst either.

"These Colours Don't Run" almost bores me to tears.

Yep!


I don't think that this record is a godsend.


It's just that it's 100x better than recently released Maiden shit. I give it a 4 out of 5.


SHIT...SHIT.... SHIT ...AMOLAD.....



Of course people are going to praise this album. Kinda like Opeth.... they scream for 5 minutes, and then have an awesome acoustic part. That makes the acoustic part look genious!

I absolutely love AMoLaD! I've listened to it every day since it's release. Maiden has always resorted to a filler song or two on each album.

Now Dance of Death was filler from start to finish! I knew what to expect the second I saw that horrible cover.

Personally, I think Maiden needs to stop with the instrumental on every fucking album...

I've kinda grown to love that aspect of Maiden, but I can see where it isn't for some folks.
