The wild frontier, an album in which Maiden whole new tones strikes

If a well-known band to bring out a new album that sounds the same or similar sound strikes, like the previous albums, then write the critics often that the band either creativity is lost, or has that the new album is not really something new to offer. Released it on the other hand a plate on which they actually enters a new musical territory, then write the critics often that the new songs, no more good than the old, or not to sound like the old.

Watzlawick's famous story of the donkey could not be more appropriate and in the new Maiden disc, because even here appears at the end of the conclusion are to: "You can do in life or do what you want; it will always be people who I do not like, or who have something wrong with it. " You can not make all human rights precisely.

In the case of Iron Maiden - me since - Brave New World - not many times like better than before, or perhaps because of liked it better because the songs are different now arranged completely and built complex - can only say I that the band this conversion (development) to the "Prog" doing incredibly well. Although of course the very first time with the CD recognizes that it undoubtedly is a Maiden-disc in this album - every band, no matter what, somehow has up their distinctive style, and that's a good thing - enter the six musicians - The Final Frontier - in many songs a completely new musical terrain.

Of course, the intro for many is to get used to, because otherwise, but to call it for this reason as "bad", just because you might not have access to it, I think is not fair. The statements that the title - El Dorado - or the new album was generally "Maiden-unworthy", and that its predecessor - A Matter Of Life And Death - the weakest Maiden CD's should ever count, absolutely for me Not applicable, not to say irresponsible. Just a reminder: With - A Matter Of Life And Death - Iron Maiden had the first number 1 in the German album charts at all. The Final Frontier - currently ranked 4th, and I would also thrilled for the band when it could also climb the highest throne.

Granted, the last four studio albums, with the exception of maybe - Brave New World - with sub for many commercial Heavy metal fans no longer accessible, as the older stuff from the eighties and early nineties, but in fact demands time, but they are definitely not worse than the old disks. Especially titles that are longer than seven minutes, and combine many clock or tempo changes in themselves, contribute to the fact that this title does not wear out in the long term, and remain permanently interesting and exciting.

The new album - The Final Frontier - that's just like all previous Maiden productions of the last 10 years a successful disk, which is better in each pass, and therefore I would be personally extremely happy if the band on tour mainly songs from the past 10 years would play.
