Iron Maiden The Final Frontier

The review is honest. It tries to underline some flaws that, for a non-fan like me, instead feel like chasms. Listening to the album from start to finish would be torture, but in small doses, with the right critical spirit, I ultimately agree that some good stuff comes through. It's undeniable that the AM have "the craft," but honestly, they've become a bit tiresome, and the singer seems to have lost his way... It’s not easy to stay at high levels after 400 years of loud screams, distorted guitars, and pounding snares, and I must say they fully maintain that status. Only for enthusiasts.

It seems interesting. Congratulations on the review. Would that we had more like it.

I didn’t understand anything. And then you used at least 5 words I had never heard before. Usually, I quite like this thing. In this case, I'm holding back and postponing my judgment, placing an interim vote. You made me want to read it?... a little bit, yes. So mission accomplished. However, you haven't removed my doubt that it could be deadly boring, the only thing that seems to come through from your enigmatic review.

Dear Bartle, first of all, thanks for coming. Then try to think that repetitions can sometimes be intentional. If I've missed a few points here and there, that's okay; I might just look into enrolling in an evening class... ;) Anyway, read the book if you find the time, and let me know. It was a real surprise for me. Bye.

Damn London for stealing my idea... I was about to review it myself, but I work too much. ANYWAY, well done. Excellent historical context, as always; I would have added a bit more musical insight. The album is good only for those who are always on the lookout for gems from good old Paul, because on its own, it’s not exactly groundbreaking. Yet I admit it has a unique sound and evokes intriguing atmospheres. My favorite is Giving grease a ride, really ahead of its time! I also want to point out, hidden in the CD, the only bass solo by Paul that I can remember.

I quote LONDON. Some ex-Beatles have done better by following the nostalgic trail of R&R upon which they were all born and raised, and thanks to which they decided to be musicians. It’s actually PREDICTABLE, very little LENNON, in short. I must say that it bores me a bit, even, but part of the blame lies with the production because John screams well and is convinced. I recommend it to those who love John and want to enjoy all its facets, not to those who love R&R in the truest sense of the term (that is 20 flight rock...). Very good review, it touches little on the details.

Alright, but you can skip it if you don't feel like it... but wasn't the R&R Elvis's? Bah...

Great album. Whether you want to call it punk or polka, who cares...

Very enjoyable album, only at times a bit sluggish. One headlight is wonderful, and I also emphasize God don't make lonely girls. Indeed, that background accordion is a bit tiresome... but the overall atmosphere is spot on and engaging. High-level review.

I saw them live at a summer festival of lip-syncing acts. They, on the other hand, insisted on playing for real and showed up with 2 acoustic guitars and a bass. Great, brave, always friendly, and most importantly, they don't take themselves too seriously. The finale with "Here Comes the Sun" gave me goosebumps. For once, TV gives a bit of fame to those who truly deserve it.
