Iron Maiden

[Jesse Python]

Ajattelin, että olinkohan liian jyrkkä ton No prayerin suhteen ja kuuntelin sen kokonaan ekaa kertaa varmaan pariinkymmeneen vuoteen. Ja ei, ei tää nyt vaan ole hyvä. Kontrasti Seventh soniin on niin suuri.

ite kuuntelin sen tässä joku viikko sitten ja tykkäsin enemmän kuin viimeiseen kahteenkymmeneen vuoteen

[Jesse Python]

Nyt tossa soi toi Brave new world ja kyllähän toi kuulostaa paremmalta kuin toi No prayer. Mutta missä helvetin vaiheessa noihin Maidenin biiseihin on tullut tota kertosäkeen hoilaamista minuuttikaupalla? Sitä oli jo tossa No Prayerissä mutta tässä Brave new worldissa tunnutaan joka biisissä jatkettavan hoilaamista niin pitkään että biisi kuin biisi alkaa pitkästyttää. Vai onko tossa mietitty jotain livetilanteiden kivaa everybody-meininkiä kun noi jatkuu siis perkele loputtomiin.

Emmätiiä onhan tota Virtual XIhin ku vertaa ni varmaan pikemminki karsittu tolle Brave new worldille. Siinä on kuitenki lightning strikes twice angel and the gambler ja muita hypnoottiseks asti kertsiä junnaavia.

[Pierrot le Fou]

Ai kato se oli edellisellä sivulla koko juttu

[Pierrot le Fou]

Mut siis kaikki levyt hyviä, ja jokanen biisi on hyvä.

[Oi! Maamme Suomi]

Käytännössä Virtual XI on ainoa, jota ei pysty kuuntelemaan.

Joskus yritin tätä kuunnella, siihen kakkosbiisin loppui hermot. Onnetonta räpellystä oikeastaan kaikilla mahdollisilla mittareilla.

Kymmenen minuuttia Angel and the Gamblerin kertsiä - ei heikoille!

Mitä hemmettiä se Harris oli miettinyt kun tää vaan jatkui ja jatkui ja jatkui ja jatkui

Varmaan että don't you think I'm a saviour

eikös harriksella ollut avioero tuolloin? kelaillut loputonta avioeroahdistusluuppia ja se sitten näkyi kertosäkeiden määrässä

Joo eiks se X Factory ole avioerolevy. Virtual XI oli viimeinen Maiden-levy, jonka ostin. Se on kyllä armottoman huono.

AMOLADilla (Ei siis Book of Souls bönthötasku huom.) tuota venyttämistä on sitten jo ihan kaikkialla muuallakin.

Jostain kumman syystä tuokin on hyllyssä ja siellä myös pysyy. Varmaan jotain tunnearvokysymyksiä just tuon levyn kohdalla.

[Lance Pursuit]

The X Factorista tulee aina mieleen sydämensä kyllyydestä mossaavat hårdrocksbrödernat. Piti kuunnella pitkästä aikaa äsken.

Roll of the dice
Take a spin of the wheel
Out of your hands now
So how do you feel?
But you're not gonna win
You'd better go back again
Do you feel lucky
Or do you feel scared?
Take what luck brings
And the Devil may care
But you're down on your luck
What will the next day bring?

Adrift on the ocean
Afloat in a daydream
Or lost in a maze
Or blind in the haze
So what does it matter?
So why don't you answer?
So why did you send
An angel to mend?

Best make decisions
Before it's too late
Take all your chances
Take hold of the reins
A roll of the dice
Ahead of the game again

Nothing to lose
But so much to gain
A little danger
It goes without saying
But what do you care?
You're gonna go in the end

Gate open to heaven
Is ready and waiting
Or straight down to hell
Can go there as well
I'll suffer my craving
My soul's not worth saving
So why don't you go?
Just leave well alone

Don't you think I'm a savior?
Don't you think I could save you?
Don't you think I could save your life?

Don't you think I'm a savior?

There's like a hunger
That knocks on your door
You've had a taste of it
Still you want more
You've made your mistakes
Won't play it the same again

You have been warned
But still you plunge in
You play high stakes
But there's nothing to win
You've only one life
And so many things to learn

The Angel on one side
The Devil the other
Which path do you take
Decisions to make
Arrive at the crossroads
You know where you're going
And what if you wait
It may be too late

[Hardcore-Mummo]

Mut siis kaikki levyt hyviä, ja jokanen biisi on hyvä.

Ei voi kuin

[Pierrot le Fou]

Angel and the gambleris on semmonen hyvä draivi. Mutta niin kyllä se kertsi tulee aika moneen otteeseen.

RÄÄÄÄH

Tuo oli hirveä kokemus jo siinä vaiheessa kun oli ylipäänsä kuullut suhteellisen vähän Maidenia.

Uudemmissakin on yksittäisiä hyviä biisejä ja jossain vaiheessa mietin, et oisko niissä kuitenkin se 45 min hyvää kamaa, mutta kun jokainen kellottaa yli tuntia, niin siinä on paljon tyhjäkäyntiä. Myös X Factor on mainettaan parempi kokonaisuus.

Tämä, voi vittu tämä! Sopivalla karsimisella saisi useammastakin myöhemmästä levystä paremmin kuunneltavan.
Esmes vaikka jo Fear of the dark jonka taso laskee alkupuolen jälkeen kuin lehmän häntä.


X-Factor on hyvinkin toimiva synkistely! Tuosta saisi omaan makuun vielä paremman jos levyn olisi lopettanut Edge of darknessiin..
