So fellow Maiden fans, (I know your out there! 
), anyone out there got their hands on the latest album?
I ask this, because even though its not out until the 16th (5 days left to go!), I received my copy of it today, (I got the tin version!). (THANK YOU ZAVVI )
Personally, I really enjoy the album, its definately something different.
The tracks I love so far, (my opinion may change in time, as some of these songs are really darn complex!):
1. Satellite 15... The Final Frontier
2. El Dorado
4. Coming Home
6. Isle of Avalon (SO EPIC!)
9. The Man Who Would Be King (A very unusual track)
10. When The Wild Wind Blows (It may be the best song on the album!)
Overall, its the lyrics that win me. Very dark, creative, and thoughtfull, (to me at least).
You could read the lyric book like it was a collection of poetry.
To make this topic a little more general, anyone ever got something before it was "officially" out, any interesting stories behind that if so?
(I also apologise if this thread is a little inappropriate, but I HAD to talk to someone about it, (my best friend has seemingly disappeared from the net today...))
