THE REVIEW
I don't know if it's worth reviewing this album!
"Why?" you may ask. Because Iron doesn't need reviews, critiques, comments, or chatter!
It's useless!
Iron is like a sea, an ocean of sounds, of shivers, and the swimmer has no choice but to dive in and swim, swim, swim... (believe me, you'll never stop swimming, nor will you get tired, and therefore you won't need to rest, to get out of the water and lie under the sun to tan, and wash off the salt) they drag, push, save the drowned, the naïve, enlighten the atheists, the fool, the ignorant.
Alexander The Great, (just to name one)... a hard rock, dark, (grotesque) a crystal-clear tunnel, horrid... (fortunately pieces like this exist in music, in history, in life)
Everything else is just music!

The album offers many and original experimentations, starting from the introduction of background keyboards.
I sing, or rather shout the chorus at the top of my lungs, while my parents worriedly call 911.

'Wasted Years' washes away any bitterness: a masterpiece written in collaboration by Adrian Smith.
'Alexander the Great' ... the best song on the album, unfortunately never played live.
By Kirk89
It’s like living in this futuristic world, and one has the sensation of not being able to get out.
Each label you see, even the most insignificant ones, makes you invent an event of history that has nothing to do with it or that has not yet occurred.
By pepozzo
The first track 'Caught Somewhere in Time' catapults us into a futuristic universe with keyboards and synthesized guitars.
'Wasted Years' is a concentrate of emotions, with choruses wonderfully sung by a Dickinson in top form.
By Adrian
"This is it. This is the thought I have matured after listening... they made 'Somewhere In Time'."
"One of the reasons why I consider this album the group’s most successful is precisely the eighth and final track: 'Alexander the Great.'"
