  • Harpernonfiction to Publish Rock Legend, Iron Maiden's
    HARPERNONFICTION TO PUBLISH ROCK LEGEND, IRON MAIDEN’S BRUCE DICKINSON THIS AUTUMN FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: 26th July 2017 This Autumn HarperNonFiction are publishing What Does This Button Do?, the hugely anticipated memoir from Iron Maiden frontman and rock legend, Bruce Dickinson. Heavy metal pioneers since their formation in 1975, Iron Maiden have sold over 90 million albums and played over 2000 shows in 63 countries, making them one of the most successful and globally influential bands of all time. One of the world’s most storied musicians, Bruce Dickinson has been the band’s internationally- acclaimed lead singer for more than 30 years, and quite aside from the decades spent delivering high- octane performances with his larger-than-life persona, Bruce has lived an extraordinary off-stage existence too. A true polymath, Bruce is, or has been, an airline pilot and captain, an aviation entrepreneur, a beer brewer, motivational speaker, film scriptwriter, twice-published novelist, radio presenter, TV actor and a world-class fencer. Over the last couple of years, and throughout Iron Maiden’s The Book Of Souls World Tour, which has covered 39 countries and 117 shows since February 2016, Bruce has turned his unbridled creativity to writing his memoirs, longhand (in seven A4 notebooks no less). In What Does This Button Do?, Bruce (a man who famously never gives interviews about his personal life) shares, for the first time, the most fascinating recollections, including his thirty years with Maiden, the early days, his childhood within the eccentric British school system, going solo, realising his dream of flying jumbo jets and his recent battle with tongue cancer.

  • Close Readings of Metal Lyrics
    International Journal of English Learning and Teaching Skills; Vol. 1, No. 4; ISSN : 2639-7412 (Print) ISSN : 2638-5546 (Online) POETRY AND LYRICS IN LANGUAGE ACROSS CENTURIES: CLOSE READINGS OF METAL LYRICS Anushka Banerjee Aishika Mukherjee Sayantan Chanda, Shivam Shubham B.Tech Second Year, Mayurakshi Dev Assistant Professor of English Department of Basic Science and Humanities, Institute of Engineering & Management, Kolkata Introduction Ever since its inception into the realm of music during the mid-70, heavy metal has been hailed as one of the most extreme genres in terms of loudness, machismo and lyrical content. Throughout its existence, heavy metal has been mired with controversies; critics slighted the music by shunning it off as being riddled with overblown adolescent theatrics, and conservative groups have accused the genre of being provocative due to its evil lyrical content. Inspite of all those adversities, heavy metal has held its stance as one of the most consistent forms of rock music. Metal music, through its efforts has reinstated the “ancient Indo-European spirit of vir”1 through a Romantic, Faustian form of music culture. This has staggered the general concept of mainstream music and has hence, since long, remained controversial. Heavy metal has never been popular with the mainstream masses, primarily due to the nature of the music. Amongst other things, lyrical content of the songs is one thing that is largely frowned upon and often considered to be one of the primary reasons why metal music has never struck a chord with the masses. But such allegations, while partly true, remain biased to a large extent.

  • Iron Maiden: the Beast on the Road Tour 2 D'abril De 1982 Palau Municipal D'esports De Barcelona
    It's only rock & roll | Pep Saña | Actualitzat el 04/01/2017 a les 06:00 Iron Maiden: The Beast On The Road Tour 2 d'Abril de 1982 Palau Municipal d'Esports de Barcelona Corria l'any 1981 i Iron Maiden era una banda relativament gran després d'editar dos discos molt bons, Iron Maiden (1980) i Killers (1981), fins i tot havien fet de teloners per Kiss a la seva gira europea de 1980 i tornaven d'una gira en solitari pel Japó aquell mateix any que recollirien en un EP en directe titulat Maiden Japan. Però l'estil de vida d'excessos amb l'alcohol i les drogues que tenien física i psicològicament desgastat al fins aquell moment cantant Paul Di' Anno estava començant a posar en seriós perill la contínua ascensió de la banda i això era una cosa que el seu fundador, Steve Harris no estava disposat a consentir. La conseqüència d'aquests excessos va portar a Paul Di' Anno a ser expulsat de la banda. El seu substitut seria Bruce Dickinson, la veu més potent i enèrgica que ha donat Anglaterra i conegut amb el sobrenom d' Air Raid Siren, sirena d'atac antiaeri. Steve Harris juntament amb el manager d' Iron Maiden Rod Smallwood van anar personalment a veure'l al concert de Samson (banda en la que cantava aleshores) al festival de Reading al 1981 (a l'any següent repetiria en el mateix festival però com a cantant d' Iron Maiden i de caps de cartell, arrasant davant unes 35.000 persones) i no molts dies més tard es convertia en el nou cantant de la banda.

  • Historical Themes in Iron Maiden Songs (Part I): from the Cavemen to the Vikings
    Revista Brasileira de Estudos da Canção – ISSN 2238-1198 Natal, n.3, jan-jun 2013. www.rbec.ect.ufrn.br Historical Themes in Iron Maiden Songs (Part I): From the Cavemen to the Vikings Lauro Meller1 [email protected] Abstract: This paper intends to deepen some of the ideas put forward in a previous study of ours, “Historical Characters and Facts in Iron Maiden Songs: a journey from Pre-History to The Second World War” (MELLER, 2005). Our aim is to demonstrate that the lyrics to Maiden’s songs stand out in the Heavy Metal scenario (whose lyrics usually have as subject matters Satanism, sex, drinking, and drug abuse). Avoiding these commonplace topics, Steve Harris, the main songwriter in the group, invests in more elaborate lyrics, either inspired by literary works or about historical themes. In fact, there are so many songs in the band’s discography that deal with historical themes that it is even possible to draw a timeline that stems from Pre-History and reaches The Second World War. While our analytical approach tends to focus on the lyrics, it will not ignore some aspects that are crucial to a better understanding of songs, namely the strictly musical elements (melody, harmony, rhythm, arrangement, etc.), and performance. Keywords: Iron Maiden; Heavy Metal; History; Popular Music Studies. Resumo: Este trabalho pretende verticalizar algumas das ideias apresentadas em um estudo prévio de nossa autoria, “Personagens e Fatos Históricos nas Canções do Iron Maiden: uma jornada da Pré-História à Segunda Guerra Mundial” (MELLER, 2005). Nosso intuito é o de demonstrar que as letras das canções do Maiden se destacam no cenário do Heavy Metal (cujas letras normalmente versam sobre Satanismo, sexo, bebida e consumo de drogas).

  • “The Flight of Icarus”
    “THE FLIGHT OF ICARUS” Ryan Tiegs English 103 09/09/99 Musicians use a variety of methods to suggest meaning in their songs. In the song, “Flight of Icarus”, by the band Iron Maiden, one can find examples of irony and symbolism. These two ideas combined relate to the theme of the song, or “its controlling idea or its central insight” (Arp, Perrine 102). The unifying concept of the song is to be well informed about the individuals in whom one instills one’s trust. If misled, one could be faced with the point of human reach exceeding its grasp. The “Flight of Icarus” is actually the title of an ancient Greek myth. Icarus was “the son of an Athenian craftsman” (Coolidge 88) and both were “exiled in Crete after Daedalus murdered his apprentice whose skill was greater than his master’s” (Coolidge 88). When the father and son were imprisoned by the king of Crete, the inventor made “wings from feathers and wax” (Coolidge 88) so that he and his son could escape by flying away to the nearest land, Naples. After several hours of successful flight, Icarus was exhilarated by the flight and attracted by the golden light of the sun, and soared upward like an eagle, “despite his father’s warnings” (Coolidge 89). The wax in his wings melted and he perished while his father flew to safety. Daedalus, heartbroken, “flew on to Naples and vowed never to fly again” (Coolidge 89). In the Iron Maiden song, “The Flight of Icarus”, Daedalus is portrayed in a very different light.
