Full Description
Mention the
words' heavy metal' and chances are one of the first names you'll get back is
Iron Maiden. From their early days as front-runners of the New Wave Of British
Heavy Metal in 1980, through to their epic and progressive works of more recent
times, the band have been 'all things to all men' in the metal world. Such is
their profile that even the non-metal fan would probably cite them as a key
example of the genre. This book lifts the lid on every single track recorded by
the band, album by album, from the punk-ish debut with original vocalist Paul
DiAnno, via the glory years fronted by Bruce Dickinson, through to the band's
most recent album Senjutsu..
By way of facts, anecdotes, analysis and a
dollop of opinion, Steve Pilkington provides both an informative companion for
the die-hard fan and a perfect road-map for the more casual listener to follow.
From 'Prowler' to 'Empire Of The Clouds', through each and every line-up
change, this is every Number recorded by The Beast - the ultimate recording
history of Iron Maiden.
