Sixteen Iron Maiden Studio Albums Are Getting Deluxe Remasters

  On the heels of completing leg one of their massive Legacy Of The Beast retrospective tour, Iron Maiden and Parlophone Records have announced a series of sixteen remastered Iron Maiden albums as CD digipacks. This continues the reissues already out on vinyl from 2015. Iron Maiden The Studio Collection – Remastered will come from the same remasters as the 2015 hi-res digital releases. The albums will be released chronologically in batches of four, across a nine-month period superseding the previously available studio catalogue and all titles will also be made available on streaming platforms. As a bonus for collectors, one CD from each batch of releases will also be optionally available in a specially artwork box featuring a 1:24 scale figurine and exclusive patch. In the November 16th batch, this will be The Number Of The Beast.

Maiden founding member and bassist Steve Harris says, “We’ve wanted to revisit these for a long time and I was delighted with the remastering we did in 2015. I thought it was the best that our albums have ever sounded and it was only right that we made them available on CD now too.” All four albums in this first batch are available for pre-order now from https://www.studiocollection.ironmaiden.com . 1st batch: November 16th Iron Maiden / Killers / The Number Of The Beast (option of standard or collectors boxset edition including TNOTB Eddie figurine and patch) / Piece Of Mind 2nd batch: Feb 2019 date TBC Powerslave / Somewhere In Time (standard/collectors) / Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son / No Prayer For The Dying 3rd batch April 2019 date TBC Fear Of The Dark (standard/collectors) / The X Factor / Virtual XI / Brave New World 4th batch June 2019 date TBC Dance Of Death / A Matter Of Life And Death (standard/collectors) / The Final Frontier / The Book Of Souls* *not remastered but appearing in Digipak for the first time Read the full article

23 YEARS AGO TODAY (March 23rd, 1998) IRON MAIDEN RELEASED THEIR 11TH STUDIO ALBUM 'VIRTUAL XI'. Did you know? Four songs that were written during the sessions for Virtual XI ended up on its follow-up Brave New World: "Nomad", "Dream of Mirrors", "Mercenary" and "Blood Brothers". #IRONMAIDEN #blazebayley #virtualxi #90srock https://www.instagram.com/p/CMwE8jBgIW2/?igshid=bsq7j436d3s6

EDDIE'S ESSENTIALS 1/6: BRAVE NEW WORLD Brave New Wolrd is one of those albums that manages to be much more than just a sum of it’s parts. It’s easy to see why it has such a special meaning for both fans and the band; it’s much more than just a satisfying ”comeback” record. It is a very distinctive, musically strong piece of music that is enjoyable thoroughly though it’s lenght. Not every song on it is a definite masterpiece and a modern classic, but to be fair, The Mercenary and The Fallen Angel are not any worse than stuff like Gangland or Quest for Fire, much better actually. If the material of Brave New World wasn’t released as a first ”reunion album”, some people might have a different view on it, especially when it comes to more dragging stuff, but it’s a very strong album nonetheless – there’s no denying that. While not quite top-three album for me, it’s definitely a very essential one in Maiden discography and after all these years it still manages to sound FRESH and full of creative energy – even though a couple of songs on aren’t really the best examples of it. But as stated, everything, even the somewhat weaker songs, fall in to place perfectly here and that’s a sign of a strong album and beauty of the album format in general. 4/5 A record full of power and rawness that showed the world back in the day that Iron Maiden and metal music were alive and well. And they both still are. #ironmaiden #nwobhm #brucedickinson #heavymetal #steveharris #janickgers #danceofdeath #davemurray #virtualxi #adriansmith #nickomcbrain #maidenengland #thelegacyofthebeast
