This week we (almost) round off the B’s. We take a first peek into the 2006 slugger “A Matter of Life and Death” by turning the lights up to nuclear proportions. We also touch on full album performances in a live-set. Aside from this, we dig into Maiden’s only number-one single: Dickinson’s rowdy rocker entitled:…

Brave New World. Aldous Huxley wrote the book. Dave, Steve & Bruce penned the track. Jon & Erik recorded the pod. Joining the ranks with this book-inspired track, we have yet another tome: The Book of Souls. We discuss the daunting task of accepting brand new material into your Maiden-world andhow neither the future nor…

This week we tackle two very different, yet strangely alike songs, from the latter half of the band’s discography. Just like last week, we talk a lot about Steve as well – such as family, the smell of the Piece of Mind 1998 CD reissue booklet, the catholic church, and “happy baby burning”. Erik Arkö…

No Steve – no Iron Maiden! We take the opportunity to focus on the basslines of Iron Maiden’s unrivaled center pillar, Mr. Steve Harris. To aid us, bass player extraordinaire Erik Arkö joins to perform and discuss The Bass of the Beast.

The three amigos are back in the village! Two of the most energetic Maiden bangers to date constitutes today’s topic. Henrik joins us again, sharing his memories and expertise as we dive headfirst into the B’s. We also touch on some of Bruce’s final shows in his first run with the band, the lack of…

Better watch out! ’Cause this is episode 10. Tackling one of Maiden’s all time worst songs The Apparition after which The Assassin sneaks onto the scene. We look back at Henrik’s first live experience with Maiden, which took place pretty much exactly 30 years prior to this episode being recorded. And remember – I hear…

One of our metal heroes, Mr Dan Swanö, joins us for a detailed discussion about his Maiden experience as well as career at large. How much can you invent within three chords? What is Pop-Death? AOR-Maiden? What’s the weight of a killer hook? Hope you all enjoy this discussion as much as we did

Triple threat! What happens when Maiden A–Z tackle three songs, with a commentary panel of three nerds, about Iron Maiden with three different vocalists? In this episode we get into The Angel & The Gambler, Alexander the Great, and Another Life. Aside from this very serious task, we spend time dissecting the different tempos at…

As we head into 2021 – perhaps the Age of Alchemy? – on this official world hangover day, we try to tackle a couple of fairly anonymous or – dare we say – lukewarm Maiden songs. We also discuss self-repetition, a grumpy grandpa Steve, and some flavorless cake-works.

In this holiday special we take the opportunity to go through some of the listener feedback we’ve had so far. Aside from that, we peek into the future a little bit and listen to some quick samples of Christmas metal (big ‘orra!). Skål
