Iron Maiden - Brave New World

I think this was great, Im not a Bruce Dickinson fan but after he came back they did one of their best album after years and I think after this they couldnt give an album like it again.

Yes it's great but IMO A Matter Of Life And Death is a good album too.

All "new" albums are great in some way...different but still rocking...

Blood Brothers, Dream Of Mirrors and Out Of The Silent Planet are my favorites here...also The Thin Line Between Love & Hate is nice

My Favorite album ever

This is the band that attracted me to the metal side, Iron Maiden. I was always some rocker who didn't knew what kind of music he liked. It began with some AC/DC after that Ozzy but then some friend said to me: Do you know Iron Maiden. Ik was love at first sound, now I have the full discography of them without some live albums and EP's. After listening all of their studio albums I think this maybe one of the best if not the best heavy metal album I've ever heard.

A terrific "comeback" album after two horrible releases. Love that they said fuck radio airplay (although they've done that most of their career) and made loooong, epic, songs.

I'm still to be counted as a young face to metal, but this was the second Iron Maiden album i've heard in my life and left a mark in me. Still my favourite Maiden album after 10 f*cking years. Up The Irons!

Same with me too. One of their best albums for sure. Never gets old

This is definitely a great comeback album. Of their later career, it's probably my favorite overall. There are a lot of memorable moments on the album that remind me of mid- to late-'80s Maiden.

Their most "epic" album, for sure... Brave New World is currently my Favourite Iron Maiden song.

My favorite from them!

This album is a glorious return-to-form and by far my favorite album from the band (that includes their classic 1980s releases). Every song on here shows the band at the top of their skills since the 80s, and Bruce sounds incredible as always (he has this really awesome snarl to his vocals from his age probably). The last song is so heartfelt.

EDIT: Number of the Beast is actually my #1 favorite now, but BNW will be a close number three for a while.

Well I agree whit you its some way diferent but still good, maybe its Iron maiden magic and profesionality, many band swont do such deal what did IM
My friend had tape I hade a coppy so I know this from 2001 and beck in those days I didnt like, I was .. all old is good, all new is crap, hehe but now its OK, even those who knows prom videos will understand what are best songs here

Overrated. I don't know why so many people put this album on the same level as Maiden's 80s albums.
I find it quite inferior to any old Maiden album.

Agreed. Brave New World is fun and catchy and all, but nowhere near their first 7

"new" Maiden are "different", but not necessarily "worse"

BTW does I am only one who hear ''arabic'' music or ''midle east'' trad folk sound elemenmts ... lil bit O Land type of elements into music?

This album reminds me a lot of 'Somewhere In Time', only without the synthesizers.

I really liked this one. I remember when I was heard Bruce was coming back to the fold and it made me the happiest little metalhead on the planet.

And the result was great too!

Fanboys' ratings always bring disturbance to real metalheads. Sounds like a bitch has discovered a big-red-cock-shaped-candy in K-Mart.

Yes, everytime I wasted my money due to their recommendations

Anyone who buys an album purely based on someone else's opinion deserves all they get.

"Somewhere In Time" is ten times better than this.

Excellent album, but I found it a little overrated (IMHO Dance of Death was better). This one launched the Maiden sound into a most epic vibe (more epic even than in SSOASS).

EDIT: This album is really deserver of a 10!!! Every song has a high value. Being my favorites BLOOD BROTHERS, Dream of Mirrors and The Nomad, but the whole album is really great.

I never do it I try download, or hear at 1th place, I made such mistakes as teenager, but I never have been desapointed, my friend had this on tape, so I knew it before but trolley appreciated in Sweden

Fantastic album, such a good collection of songs. Of the post-Blaze era albums it's only surpassed by AMOLAD. It's very close to a 10 but there's something missing from breaking the perfect score, maybe i change my mind one day.

EDIT: Yes I have changed my mind. There's no way this album doesn't the deserve the full rating.

I always found this album to be rather underrated, like why isn't this in the iTunes store? It's one of their best.

I think i'vw found my 2nd favorite IM album after Somewhere in Time.... Awesome album, epic as fuck!
