New Iron Maiden album - Book of Souls


Recommended Posts

I've just been flipping through the booklet while listening to the album and it's clear to me that they should have used this picture for the front cover of the album:

I like the cover just fine.

 

Aye. What it lacks in context around the image, the image itself more than makes up for. Probably my favorite depiction of Eddie's face in decades in terms of quality of art, detail, etc.

 

I like the cut-out heart depiction and that would have made a great cover as well, but that totem image with their faces is laughably bad.

I heard Psycho Motel's sophomore album yesterday, and this song had something familiar: the melody in the main riff sounds just like the chorus of The Red and the Black! Seeing that Psycho Motel was an Adrian Smith project, I guess we know where the inspiration came from:
