IRON MAIDEN

SOMEWHERE IN TIME

1986


Review: Studio release # 6 and to me a different direction. Keyboards included on this one for the first time but thankfully they didn't add a keyboard player to the band or anything. Nothing against Keyboards but not in Maiden. I was disappointed in this release as it just wasn't as heavy as I like my Maiden. Still some heaviness but songs like Heaven Can Wait, and Stranger in a Strangeland just were to boring for me. Its like the evil left the band or something. There is a few songs I like but just overall I thought this was a let down for what I was used to and I can't even remember the last time I pulled this out of my collection to listen to.
