First re-release of the eighth full-length studio album by the legendary British Heavy Metal band.
"No Prayer For The Dying" is one of the best Metal albums of 1990. Although it received generally mixed to negative reviews, the album peaked at No. 2 in the UK Albums Chart and contains the band's only UK Singles Chart No. 1, "Bring Your Daughter... to the Slaughter".
The album departed from the keyboard- and synthesiser-saturated Progressive Rock direction of the band's two previous studio outings (1986's "Somewhere In Time" and 1988's "Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son") in favour of a more "stripped down", straight forward style, reminiscent of the band's earlier material, which ushered in a change of vocal style for Bruce Dickinson from the operatic sound of the 1980s to a raspier way of singing. The album also departed from literary and historical lyrical themes in favour of more political content, with songs focusing on religious exploitation and social concerns. It's the only Iron Maiden studio album to date without a song exceeding six minutes in length and the only one to contain profanity in the lyrics.
Album marks band's first line-up change since 1983; guitarist Adrian Smith left the band during the pre-production phase, unhappy with the musical direction it was taking, and only having contributed to one song, "Hooks in You". Smith was replaced by Janick Gers, who had previously worked with singer Bruce Dickinson on his first solo-album, "Tattooed Millionaire", and had also worked with Ian Gillan and White Spirit.
It was also the band's first release with Epic Records in the US, after the band left Capitol Records, but was sold through EMI for all territories outside the US.

The third re-release of the fourth full-length studio album by legendary British Heavy Metal band.
The second of three straight iconic Iron Maiden albums, "Piece Of Mind" marks the debut of what many regard as the definitive Maiden lineup, with the arrival of Nicko McBrain, who had recently left the Paris-based band Trust and has been Iron Maiden's drummer ever since.
Album was originally released on EMI Records in Europe and on Capitol Records in the U.S.; it was reissued later on Sanctuary/Columbia Records.
McBrain's ability to duplicate the complex patterns of the guitar and bass riffs gives the band a seamless ensemble unity. Even Steve Harris, whose busy basslines were never exactly groove-oriented, has never felt more integrated into the overall sound. Perhaps part of that feeling comes from the less frantic pace; the average tempo has slowed somewhat from the preceding album, and the hold-over Punk influences still present there have been completely eradicated. Instead, we get a few moodier, heavier pieces (especially "Revelations") that make the album darker-sounding overall. We also get greater involvement in the songwriting from Bruce Dickinson and Adrian Smith, whose themes are perfectly in tune with Steve Harris' epic storytelling. Nearly every song here was inspired by movies or literature, whether it's history, mythology, sci-fi, or fantasy; this approach got them tagged as a thinking-man's Metal band, and certainly provided a lyrical blueprint for Anthrax. No less than four songs are about battles and warriors, and a couple is about flying, underscoring the heights of the drama that the band is aiming for. The centerpiece of the album is, of course, "The Trooper", an all-time genre classic that boasts Murray and Smith's most memorable harmonized lead riff, plus that trademark galloping rhythm. A retelling of the Greek myth "Flight of Icarus" was the other British hit single, boasting an appropriately soaring chorus. Album opener "Where Eagles Dare" is the other flight song, recounting a WWII spy thriller and featuring one of McBrain's signature performances with the band.
If much of "Piece Of Mind" ranks as state-of-the-art Heavy Metal, it is true that the second half dips a bit from the first. "Quest for Fire" is many a die-hard fan's least favorite track from the glory years; the melody is rather stiff and simple, and the lyrics are about cavemen, rendering Dickinson's operatic a bit ridiculous. Among the serious-minded Maiden faithful, there's no less forgivable sin than silliness. Fans also bemoan the relative simplicity of the samurai tale "Sun and Steel". However, the album closes on a big, Progressive note with "To Tame a Land", an epic retelling of Frank Herbert's Dune that evokes the desert planet via Middle Eastern guitar melodies. In the end, even if "Piece Of Mind" is the most obviously inconsistent of the classic Maiden trilogy, its many high points are no less awe-inspiring, and it's no less essential for anyone with even the most basic interest in Heavy Metal!
“Piece of Mind” was a critical and commercial success, reaching No. 3 in the UK Albums Chart and achieving Platinum certification in the UK and North America.

For the first time on black vinyl, remastered 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!!
For the first time on black vinyl, 2015 remastered, triple 180 g vinyl in trifold cover.

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.

The sixth full-length studio album by legendary British Heavy Metal band.
With "Somewhere In Time" Iron Maiden produces yet another classic album full of classic tracks! Album was released on 29 September 1986 on EMI in Europe and its sister label Capitol Records in the US. It was their first album to feature guitar synthesizers. All songs with the exception of "Wasted Years" featured guitar synthesizers. "Somewhere In Time" is notable for lacking any songwriting credits from lead vocalist Bruce Dickinson, whose material was rejected by the rest of the band. On the other hand, the record is also notable for the number of "fully formed" songs written by guitarist Adrian Smith, who wrote both of the album's singles: "Wasted Years" and "Stranger in a Strange Land". The record also marked a change for Iron Maiden, as it was their first to use synth, although this style was expanded on with their next release, "Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son", which used keyboard synthesizers instead. This was also their first studio album not to be released a year after their previous one, with the band insisting that they have more time "to get it right without hurrying for a change", comments Harris. It was also one of their most expensive records, with the bass and drums recorded in the Bahamas, the guitars and vocals recorded in The Netherlands and the mixing taking place in New York.
Since its release, it has been certified Platinum by the RIAA, having sold over one million copies in the US alone.
Iron Maiden has created an amazing album as usual, and it helped push their career further on for twenty more years!

The eleventh official live album by the 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"!!

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 re-release of the eighteenth single by the legendary British Heavy Metal band.
It's the third single for the band's seventh full-length studio album, "Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son" (1988).
"The Clairvoyant" was the first track written for the album. According to Steve Harris, the song's lyrics were inspired by the death of psychic Doris Stokes, after which he wondered to himself whether "she could foresee her own death". The song starts in the first person, from the main character's point of view. Later, when he is dead it is in the third person. Harris then began to write the song "Seventh Son of a Seventh Son", which gave him the idea of turning the full album into a concept record given that the main character would also have the power of clairvoyance. The song's guitar solo is played by Dave Murray.
B-side contains live performance, “The Prisoner”, from Maiden's 1988 headlining at the Monsters of Rock festival in Donington Park, on August 20th.
The single debuted at number six in the British charts.
Recorded from the original analogue master tapes.

First re-release of the seventeenth single by the legendary British Heavy Metal band.
It's the second single for the band's seventh full-length studio album, "Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son" (1988).
"Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son" is one of Iron Maiden's most acclaimed albums and with good reason. "The Evil that Men Do" has always been a standard track in and it makes for a great single with it's catchy feel. The song with an amazing harmony which stands out over virtually any other Iron Maiden song, from that opening few seconds you can tell you got an awesome song ahead.
The title of the song is taken from Marcus Antonius's speech while addressing the crowd of Romans after Caesar's murder (Act 3, scene 2, "The Forum") in William Shakespeare's Julius Caesar: "The evil that men do lives after them; The good is oft interred with their bones." Bruce Dickinson may sometimes repeat this before playing the song, but in reverse (as he did in Rock in Rio). However, the poetic lyrics of the song are unrelated to this.
The guitar solo in "The Evil That Men Do" is played by Adrian Smith while the guitar solo in "Prowler '88" is played by Dave Murray.
The single's B-side is re-recording of "Prowler" appears as tracks number one on the band's debut album Iron Maiden. "The Evil That Men Do" is definitely a Maiden classic and one of their best songs to date, however, the real reason to get this single is because of the B-Side - remake of classic from their debut album with Bruce Dickinson on vocals as opposed to Paul Di'Anno! Bruce Dickinson completely outclasses Paul Di'Anno classic, with a more aggressive voice. So, this is an awesome title song but the B-Sides are the real reason to buy this thing!!
The single debuted at number six in the UK charts and quickly rose to number five.
Recorded from the original analogue master tapes.

Second re-release of 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 marks. 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!

First re-release of the fourteenth single by the legendary British Heavy Metal band.
It's the first single for the band's sixth full-length studio album, "Somewhere In Time" (1986). It was the first single solely written by guitarist Adrian Smith, who also sings backing vocals. Wasted Years" is the only song on the album that features no synthesizers.
The song deals with subject of homesickness and alienation, as well as the negative aspects of the band's nearly yearlong previous tour and personal problems that Smith and other band members were going through in that period. At the same time the chorus suggests the idea that one should move beyond past troubles and look forward. The original working title was "Golden Years", as can be heard on numerous "Somewhere On Tour" bootlegs. The song is composed in the key of E minor. Adrian Smith plays the guitar solo. The guitar line here is probably one of the most memorable in the realm of Metal, and is sort of a rite of passage for any lead guitar player who wishes to tear it up with a band in the Metal genre. The chorus is very easy to sing along to and is a regular favorite at live performances.
The b-side "Reach Out" was sung by Adrian Smith, with regular lead singer Bruce Dickinson providing backing vocals. This song was previously performed live by Nicko McBrain and Smith's side project The Entire Population Of Hackney. This track is another rare treat. Smith does an excellent job on the vocals, but his strength on this one is his catchy guitar riffs. This song has a solo that is so idiomatic that you could easily hum the tune along with it, something that Metal guitar solos are not often famous for. This single is probably a bit hard to come by at this point, but if you can find it - it's recommend it highly! It's a great song from Maiden's greatest album, and a pair of tracks that will make you smile and make you laugh, something that Metal is allowed to do to people, despite what the no-fun elitists of the darker scene.
“Wasted Years” reached number 18 in the UK Singles Charts and it’s one of those singles you just have to own when you’re into Maiden!!

The second studio album by legendary British Jazz Fusion/Progressive Rock guitarist.
After the dissolution of the power trio Beck, Bogert & Appice (BBA) in spring 1974, Beck took time for session work with other bands. In December, a half-hearted "audition" for The Rolling Stones took place, Beck jamming Blues with the band for one day, before realizing their musical styles were not compatible. During this period, Beck decided to record an all-instrumental album, bringing back keyboardist Max Middleton from the second Jeff Beck Group. He hired George Martin to produce after hearing his work with the Mahavishnu Orchestra's 1974 album "Apocalypse". According to Carmine Appice, who played with Beck in BBA, he was involved in the writing and recording process of "Blow By Blow", but Appice's parts were edited out after a dispute with Beck's management. The fourth key contributor to "Blow By Blow" after Beck, Middleton, and Martin was Stevie Wonder, who gave Beck his songs "Cause We've Ended As Lovers" and "Thelonius", with Wonder playing clarinet on the latter uncredited. The former song appeared on Wonder's 1974 album "Stevie Wonder Presents: Syreeta", made with then-wife Syreeta Wright, while Wonder never recorded "Thelonius" himself. A cover of the Beatles song "She's a Woman" was selected, as well as the composition "Diamond Dust" by Bernie Holland of the band Hummingbird, consisting of musicians from the second Beck Group. The other five tracks were band originals with Beck and Middleton the main writers, and the last track on each side featured string arrangements by Martin. Beck dedicated "Cause We've Ended as Lovers" to fellow guitarist Roy Buchanan, with an acknowledgement to Wonder.
An instrumental album "Blow By Blow" was recorded in October 1974 and released via Epic Records in March 1975. It was a hit in the US, reaching No. 4 on the American Billboard 200 album charts, and was certified Platinum by the RIAA for a million copies sold. It remains Beck's highest-charting album.
A live version of the track "Scatterbrain" was featured in the video game Guitar Hero 5.

First American re-release of the seventh full-length studio album by legendary British Progressive Rock band.
After two single-song concept albums, "Thick As A Brick" and "A Passion Play", “War Child” was a return to the traditional format, and was one of those records that was a hit the day it was announced. The turmoil over criticism of the previous album surrounded the production of "War Child", which obliged the band to do press conferences and explain their plans for the future.
The album prominently features David Palmer's string orchestration across an eclectic musical set, with the band members, as the two predecessor albums, playing a multitude of instruments. The music is lighter and more whimsical than the dark "A Passion Play", with hints of comedy in the lyrics and the music' structure.
"War Child" went Gold in the U.S., where it peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard Pop albums chart. It was the last Jethro Tull album to earn Platinum record status.
