CD

First remastered re-release of the fifth full-length album by the legendary British Heavy Metal band.
"Powerslave" was released on 3 September 1984 on EMI in Europe and its sister label Capitol Records in the US.
The third in a trilogy of legendary Iron Maiden albums, "Powerslave" is frequently ranked as the fan favorite of the bunch, capping off a stellar run that sealed the band's genre-defining status. If "The Number Of The Beast" was the all-time Metal landmark, "Powerslave" is perhaps the quintessential Maiden album, capturing all the signature elements of the band's definitive era in one place.
The album opens with Maiden at their catchiest, turning in a pair of Metal classics right off the bat with the British hit singles "Aces High" (a high-speed ode to a WWII air battle) and the apocalyptic "2 Minutes to Midnight." Next we get an instrumental, "Losfer Words (Big 'Orra)", of the sort that Maiden periodically deployed to keep fans in awe of their technical chops. A pair of their best and most overlooked album tracks follows; "Flash of the Blade" and "The Duellists" exemplify the glory-minded battle hymns that made up such an important part of their lyrical obsessions, even if both are about sword fighting rather than modern military history. By the end of the album, we're seeing Maiden at their most progressive and ambitious. The seven-minute title track builds on the previous album's "To Tame a Land" with its use of Middle Eastern melodies, delving into Egyptian mythology for a rumination on power and mortality. This leads into the biggest, most grandiose epic in the Maiden catalog - "Rime of the Ancient Mariner", a multi-sectioned, thirteen-and-a-minute prog-fest adapted from the Samuel Taylor Coleridge poem. Though it isn't exactly what you'd call hooky, its shifting moods and lofty intellectual aspirations made it a live favorite. This latter material helped ensure that "Powerslave" was the Maiden album with the biggest impact on the emerging Progressive Metal genre (which, in its earliest form, essentially fused Rush with this sort of Maiden material). In this context, "Back in the Village" gets somewhat lost in the shuffle; it's a thematic sequel to "The Prisoner", though not quite as memorable.
So even though we don't hear the Punk influences of old, "Powerslave" catalogs every major facet of the band's personality during the Dickinson years, and does so while firing on all cylinders. Perhaps that's in part because "Powerslave" is the first Maiden album to feature the same line-up as its predecessor, creating a definite continuity and comfort level. Or perhaps it's simply that we're witnessing a great band in its creative prime. Whatever the case, it's entirely arguable that "Powerslave" summarizes why Iron Maiden was so important and influential even more effectively than "The Number Of The Beast", at least on a purely musical level. It may not be quite as accessible, but it's every bit as classic and essential.
Album is notable for its Ancient Egyptian theme displayed in the cover artwork, lifted from the title track, which was carried over to the album's supporting tour. The World Slavery Tour began in Warsaw, Poland on 9 August 1984, and is widely regarded as being the band's longest and most arduous to date, as well as leading to the live album "Live After Death".
The album contains a musical re-telling of Samuel Taylor Coleridge's "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner", which uses pieces of the original poem as lyrics and is, furthermore, Iron Maiden's longest song to date (at thirteen minutes and 42 seconds in length).
Album debuted at number two in the UK charts, as a result of their record company's (EMI) third "Now That's What I Call Music!" pop compilation.
Enhanced CD includes special multimedia part with videos, band and tour history, biographies, exclusive photo galleries, internet web links and much more…

First re-release of the seventh live album by the legendary British Heavy Metal band.
Recorded at the Rock in Rio festival, Brazil, 2001, on the last night of the Brave New World Tour.
With the reunion studio disc "Brave New World», failing to recapture the imagination and intensity of Iron Maiden in America and even in many places in the band's European homeland, going to Brazil seemed like a smart move. It was one of the few places that a quarter of a million people would turn up to see the act in 2001, and judging from the audience response, the band's set list didn't bother them much either. The band played to approximately 250,000 people - it's the second largest crowd of their career (the band's largest concert attendance was their 1985 Rock In Rio performance to an audience of 300,000) and with the relatively recent return of lead singer Bruce Dickinson and guitarist Adrian Smith to the band.
Show features many of band's most well-known tracks, including the eponymous "Iron Maiden" and "Run to the Hills", along with six songs from "Brave New World", such as "The Wicker Man" and the title track. Also performed were two tracks from the Blaze Bayley-era, "Sign of the Cross" and "The Clansman".
Iron Maiden are the pinnacle of Heavy Metal performers, with none acting as rivals. From the time they were young lads, to now as seasoned veterans, this six piece has never let the fans down, always performing to their utmost ability, with their utmost determination. "Rock In Rio" is literally what it sounds like for a quarter million people having their dreams realized, an experience that should be enjoyed by everyone who is smart enough to pick up this record!!
Enhanced CD features two videos.

The seventeenth full-length studio album by legendary British Heavy Metal band.
The first band's album in six years, following "The Book Of Souls" (2015), marking the longest gap between two Iron Maiden studio albums. This is also their second studio double album, and their first studio album since "Powerslave" (1984) to have no songwriting contributions from guitarist Dave Murray in any way, as well as the first since "Virtual XI" (1998) to feature multiple songs written by bassist Steve Harris alone.
The album got a critical and commercial success, praised for its ambitious, epic scope. Two Singles, "The Writing On The Wall" and "Stratego", were released to promote the album.
The album "Senjutsu" marks the second use of the band's original logotype (with the extended letters R, M and N) on a studio album cover, since "The X Factor" (1995), the previous one being for "The Book Of Souls" (2015). The album cover by Mark Wilkinson presents Eddie dressed up as a samurai and holding a katana.
"Senjutsu" was in the Top 3 bestsellers in the USA (the highest in the group's history so far), Australia, Ireland, Great Britain (first on the lists in Wales and Scotland), Singapore, Israel, UAE, Japan, The Netherlands, France, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Montenegro, Poland, Estonia, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Nepal, Honduras, Uruguay, Cyprus, Latvia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Luxembourg, Taiwan, Malta and Ukraine. In total, the album reached the top three bestsellers in 55 countries around the world and the Top 5 bestsellers in 63 countries. The album was ranked second on the world music charts. It's also given the band its highest chart position in the US, debuting at number three on Billboard Top 200 Albums Chart and number one on Billboard's Physical Albums Chart. 
"Senjutsu" turned out to be a tremendous achievement, strengthening the group's brand on the global music market.

Remastered re-release of the seventh full-length studio album by legendary British Heavy Metal band.
"Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son" is the great Iron Maiden album, reconnecting with the band's Prog Rock roots. By this point, Maiden had earned the respect of Metalheads the world over with their steadfast adherence to unadulterated Metal and their grandiose aesthetic. They'd made concessions neither to Pop-Metal nor to Thrash, and their passionate fan base would never have tolerated a radical reinvention. But what do you do when your epic ambition itself has become a formula? You go even bigger and make a concept album, of course! The concept is based on the European folklore, which held that the "Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son" would be born with special powers that could be used for good or evil. As such, the lyrics are Maiden at their most gothic, obsessed with supernatural mysticism of all stripes; the story line concerns the title character, born with a gift for prophecy but mistrusted by his village, which ignores his warnings of apocalyptic doom and makes him a tormented Cassandra figure.
Musically, this is Maiden at their Proggiest, with abrupt, stop-on-a-dime transitions between riffs, tempos, time signatures, and song sections. Yet nearly every song has a memorable chorus. They've also switched from the guitar synths of "Somewhere In Time" to full-fledged keyboards, which are used here more to add atmosphere rather than taking center stage; this restores the crunch that was sometimes lacking in the shinier production of the previous album.
No less than four of this album's eight songs reached the British Top Ten in some version (concert standard "Can I Play with Madness", "The Evil That Men Do", "The Clairvoyant" and "Infinite Dreams"), while the album became the band's first U.K. chart-topper since "The Number Of The Beast".
The 1998 remastered re-edition contains a special enhanced CD-ROM multimedia section with videos, exclusive photo galleries, biographies, internet links, plus a deluxe 24-page colour booklet with full lyrics, Eddie art and photos.

First re-release of the sixth compilation album by the legendary British Heavy Metal/NWOBHM band.
A relentless, 70-minute crowd pleaser marathon, containing timeless anthems that still make the adrenalin surge and the sinews stiffen after all these years!
Compilation contains a collection of songs originally recorded for their first eight albums (including "Live After Death"). The album was released in conjunction with the band's Somewhere Back In Time World Tour to allow new fans to listen to a selection of the band's material that was played on the tour. A number of tracks were taken from the band's 1985 live album, "Live After Death", because the band preferred to use recordings which featured current Iron Maiden vocalist Bruce Dickinson rather than Paul Di'Anno, who sang on their first two studio releases.
This compilation is reminder of why Iron Maiden became the most important band on the planet back in the 1980s and why, once again, they've reclaimed that crown! Metal collections don't come much more solid than this!!

The eleventh official live album by legendary British Heavy Metal band.
When it comes to live Metal shows, it doesn't get much better than an Iron Maiden concert. They have released a ton of live albums, DVDs and even VHS tapes over the years. From 1981's "Live At The Rainbow" to 1985's "Live After Death" to 1993's "Live At Donington", every era of their storied career has been commemorated with a live release.
Recorded throughout their 2016 - 2017 The Book of Souls World Tour, “The Book Of Souls: Live Chapter” was released on 17 November 2017. Iron Maiden's tour in support of 2015's "The Book Of Souls" album spanned 39 countries and six continents. Instead of picking one show from that tour and featuring its complete setlist, nearly every song on the album is from a different show (two were recorded at Castle Donington, UK). It was produced by Tony Newton, with Steve Harris serving as co-producer. The album makes band's first live album since 2002's "Beast Over Hammersmith" not to be produced by Kevin Shirley.
Since the tour was in support of "The Book Of Souls", six tracks of "The Book Of Souls: Live Chapter" are from that album including the 13 minute-plus “The Red and the Black” and the nearly 11 minute “The Book of Souls.” The rest of the set includes hits from throughout their career. No matter where they were recorded, from San Salvador, El Salvador (“The Trooper”) to Wacken, Germany (“The Number of the Beast”) to Sydney, Australia (“If Eternity Should Fall”), the fans are equally enthusiastic. They don't just sing along to the lyrics, they sing along to guitar riffs and instrumental breaks with the same amount of gusto.
Frontman Bruce Dickinson battled cancer prior to this tour, with tumors on the back of his tongue and in his neck. He took some time off to recover, and his voice is back at full strength. His legendary pipes sound as good as ever, having no problem hitting the high notes when needed.
Maiden are such a well-oiled machine, with the triple guitar attack of Dave Murray, Adrian Smith and Janick Gers operating at maximum efficiency. The rhythm section of Steve Harris and Nicko McBrain keep everything anchored, with Harris also co-producing the album.
One thing that's extremely refreshing is that after all these years, Maiden are still having fun. To adapt a line from Bon Jovi, on The Book of Souls World Tour Maiden played in front of two million faces, and they rocked them all! You'll hear it in all its glory on "The Book Of Souls: Live Chapter"!!

No matter where they were recorded, from San Salvador, El Salvador (“The Trooper”) to Wacken, Germany (“The Number of the Beast”) to Sydney, Australia (“If Eternity Should Fall”), the fans are equally enthusiastic. They don't just sing along to the lyrics, they sing along to guitar riffs and instrumental breaks with the same amount of gusto.
Frontman Bruce Dickinson battled cancer prior to this tour, with tumors on the back of his tongue and in his neck. He took some time off to recover, and his voice is back at full strength. His legendary pipes sound as good as ever, having no problem hitting the high notes when needed.
Maiden are such a well-oiled machine, with the triple guitar attack of Dave Murray, Adrian Smith and Janick Gers operating at maximum efficiency. The rhythm section of Steve Harris and Nicko McBrain keep everything anchored, with Harris also co-producing the album.
One thing that's extremely refreshing is that after all these years, Maiden are still having fun. To adapt a line from Bon Jovi, on The Book of Souls World Tour Maiden played in front of two million faces, and they rocked them all! You'll hear it in all its glory on "The Book Of Souls: Live Chapter"!!

The sixteenth full-length studio album by legendary British Heavy Metal band.
To say that Iron Maiden's "The Book Of Souls" was ardently anticipated would be a vast understatement. Though it was (mostly) finished in 2014, vocalist Bruce Dickinson's cancer diagnosis and treatment delayed its release until he was medically cleared.
While 2006's "A Matter Of Life And Death" and 2010's "The Final Frontier" showcased longer songs, "Book Of Souls" is epic by comparison.
This is band's first studio double album, and therefore also their longest to date, with a total length of 92 minutes. It has contains the band's longest song, "Empire of the Clouds", plus three of 11 tracks are over ten minutes. The album marks the longest gap between studio releases in the band's entire career, at five years.
Steve Harris contributed one solo composition, and co-wrote six tracks with various bandmates. Dickinson - for the first time since “Powerslave” - wrote two solo tunes, the album's bookends, and collaborated on two more. The music is cleanly divided between the two discs. The first is tight; it offers a bit of everything that makes Iron Maiden. It is seemingly self-contained.
Dickinson's "If Eternity Should Fail" is an impressive showcase for his voice. Its dark intro and atmospherics are eventually transformed into one of the heaviest tunes Maiden's recorded in a dig's age, but he climbs above the sonic mass. "Speed of Light" is a burner. Dickinson's fury is accompanied by a Rock'N'Rolling riff, soaring Metal guitar fills, and Nicko McBrain's grooving drums. Harris' 13-minute "The Red and the Black" has a martial tempo and chant that recalls "Rime Of The Ancient Mariner". It's followed by "When the River Runs Deep", a chugging Hard Rocker with all three guitarists challenging one another. The title cut is theatrical, as acoustic guitar and a sparse synth are filled out with a knotty riff and solo breaks, emerging as a slower, heavier headbanger.
By contrast, disc two is structured almost narratively; it slowly enlarges and expands to serve an unexpected conclusion. Opener "Death or Glory" is another crowd-catcher as Dickinson soars above thudding drums and guitar choruses redolent of Thin Lizzy. "Shadows of the Valley" is the only clunker. It's dull and predictable, a minor distraction that doesn't measure up to the set's ambition. "Tears of a Clown", written by Harris and Dave Murray, is for Robin Williams. It's a clamorous rocker, yet the lyrics and melody are simultaneously empathic and disconsolate. "The Man of Sorrows" follows expertly, progressing from meandering ballad to theatrical Hard Rock. Dickinson's 18-minute "Empire of the Clouds" is about the R101 airship disaster of 1930. It's Maiden's longest song, but a grand conclusion. He plays majestic classical piano throughout, as tasteful, biting guitars create a complementary melodic labyrinth amid swelling orchestral strings. They add texture while McBrain's swinging drums add drama. It's a Heavy Metal suite, unlike anything in their catalog!
Producer Kevin Shirley does a stellar job capturing an "in studio" sound that allows for spacious dynamics and warmth without artificial mass. Who would have thought that after decades Iron Maiden would have an album as fine (let alone as long) as "The Book Of Souls" in them? With repeated listening it earns shelf space with their finest records!!
"The Book Of Souls" topped the album charts in 24 countries. It earned the band their fifth (first consecutive) UK No. 1, following 1982's "The Number Of The Beast", 1988's "Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son", 1992's "Fear Of The Dark" and 2010's "The Final Frontier". In the US, it matched "The Final Frontier"'s success on the Billboard 200, repeating the band's highest placement at no. 4. “The Book Of Souls” received the Album of the Year award at the 2015 Classic Rock Roll of Honour Awards, collected the 2016 Metal Hammer Golden Gold Award for Best Album, and won in the Best International Album category at the 2016 Bandit Rock Awards.

First remastered re-release of the third full-length album by the legendary British Heavy Metal band
This was the debut of vocalist Bruce Dickinson in Iron Maiden and their last with drummer Clive Burr.
Routinely ranked among the greatest Heavy Metal albums of all time, "The Number Of The Beast" is the birth of Iron Maiden as we know it, a relentless Metal machine lifted to soaring new heights by the arrival of erstwhile Samson frontman Bruce Dickinson. Dickinson's operatic performance here made him an instant Metal icon, challenging even Rob Halford for bragging rights, and helped launch the band into the stratosphere.
The album's intensity never lets up, the musical technique is peerless for its time, and there isn't a truly unmemorable song in the bunch. Blessed with a singer who could drive home a melody in grandiose fashion, Steve Harris' writing gets more ambitious, largely abandoning the street violence of old in favor of fittingly epic themes drawn from history, science fiction, and horror. The exceptions are "22 Acacia Avenue", a sequel to "Charlotte the Harlot" that sounds written for Di'Anno's range, and the street-crime tale "Gangland", which Harris didn't write; though the Punk influences largely left with Di'Anno, these two definitely recall the Maiden of old. As for the new, two of the band's (and, for that matter, Heavy Metal's) all-time signature songs are here. The anthemic "Run to the Hills" dramatized the conquest of the Native Americans and became the band's first Top Ten U.K. single. It features Maiden's trademark galloping rhythm, which in this case serves to underscore the images of warriors on horseback. Meanwhile, the title track's odd-meter time signature keeps the listener just slightly off balance and unsettled, leading into the most blood-curdling Dickinson scream on record; the lyrics, based on nothing more than Harris' nightmare after watching a horror movie, naturally provoked hysterical accusations of Satan worship (which, in turn, naturally provoked sales). "Hallowed Be Thy Name" is perhaps the most celebrated of the band's extended epics; it's the tale of a prisoner about to be hanged, featuring some of Harris' most philosophical lyrics.
Though some moments on "The Number Of The Beast" are clearly stronger than others, the album as a whole represented a high-water mark for Heavy Metal, striking a balance between accessible melodicism and challenging technique and intensity. Everything fell into place for Iron Maiden here at exactly the right time, and the result certainly ranks among the top five most essential Heavy Metal albums ever recorded! A cornerstone of the genre!!
"The Number Of The Beast" become band’s first album to reach No. 1 in the UK Albums Chart, and be certified platinum in the US. It’s one of two Iron Maiden albums listed in “1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die” book.
CD includes special multimedia part with videos, exclusive band biographies, photo galleries, internet links and much more…

The eleventh full-length studio album by the legendary British Heavy Metal band.
It was the second and final Iron Maiden album recorded with vocalist Blaze Bayley.
In 1993, Iron Maiden and their popular vocalist, Bruce Dickinson, parted ways. Not going to be stopped by the loss of their 11 year singer, the band began the search for their new front man. They auditioned hundreds of vocalists including Doogie White, who at the time was in Rainbow, and even James LaBrie, of Dream Theater fame. Finally, in 1994, Iron Maiden decided that Wolfsbane singer, Blaze Bailey, would be their next vocalist. After Blaze was brought on board, the band began writing new material for their next album, and in 1995 was released "The X Factor". The album was met with a mixed reaction from fans, but the band soldiered on and entered the studio in 1998 to record their eleventh album, "Virtual XI".
"Virtual XI" met the same fate as "The X Factor". It was even more unpopular among fans than its predecessor, and it suffered in sales, and is to this very day, the only Maiden album to not hit the 1 million mark. As of April 2009 "Virtual XI" had sold 84987 copies in the United States and more than 1050000 worldwide according to Billboard, making the album the poorest selling of the band's career.
The album is slightly unusual in the Iron Maiden catalogue for its extensive keyboard use. For this album, some keyboard parts were performed by band founder/bassist Steve Harris whereas on previous albums all the keyboard parts were handled by session musician Michael Kenney. The album also had a reduced song-writing input from Janick Gers compared to the previous Iron Maiden albums since he joined the band in 1990.
"Virtual XI" was the end of another era for Iron Maiden. Following the Virtual XI World Tour, Blaze Bailey left Iron Maiden and two former members, Bruce Dickinson and Adrian Smith returned. Overall, "Virtual XI" is a very long album to listen to, despite being only 53 minutes long. The album is very repetitive, and listening to it takes a lot of patience. However, it has a few gems, such as "Futureal", "The Clansman", and "Como Estais Amigos". With a little more variety, it could have been something special!

Second single from the German Speed/Power Metal band.
This single for upcoming "Dark Assault" album features two exclusive b-sides and re-working of two songs. The Iron Savior songs "I've Been To Hell" and "Never Say Die" feature the already traditional band-style: powerful, fast, with Piet Sielck's characteristic voice. Single version of song "I've Been to Hell" misses some lyrics parts (before solo), Edit version of song "Never Say Die" misses intro part. Both songs have slightly different mix than on album "Dark Assault".
The two cover-versions are good ones, too, Judas Priest's "The Hellion - Electric Eye" and Krokus' "Headhunter" (where bassist Jan-S. Eckert has taken over a good part of the vocals).
The gem for every fan of band and Power Metal in general!

Debut EP by Chilean Heavy/Speed Metal band.
Chile just won't stop delivering the goods with class, passion and a good dose of South Arerican magic. Iron Spell play high quality old school Heavy Metal. The release sounds great, and you're not missing out on any of the instruments, nothing is drowned out. The vocals are not really distinctive, but they're not bad either as they fit the music. Sometimes there's a backing vocal with a higher pitched vocal, but whether that is the voice of lead singer.
This is a really solid piece of material, and it will probably pave way for the band! If you like traditional Heavy Metal, then you gotta check out Iron Spell, and keep your eyes on them in the future, it definitely smells like something big is cooking in Chile!!
Essential for fans of: Accept, Iron Maiden and Judas priest!!!
