  • 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.

  • Blaze Bayley, Risactonia, Black Atom @ Caesar's
    BLAZE BAYLEY CAESAR’S PALACE, MONDAY 5TH MARCH ‘This is a song about how machines are going to take over the world. Because when that happens, there will be a Second Messiah!’ Like, yeah Blaze, whatever man. Let’s get this straight: I don’t like Iron Maiden. I can’t hear that name without thinking of widdly guitar solos, pompous over-the-top lyrics, grown men in shorts, Dungeons & Dragons, scampi flavour Nik-Naks, sacrificial virgins - you get the picture. So what am I doing at a gig whose main attraction is Blaze Bayley, the man who fronted Maiden through what is considered to have been their worst years? Well, there is the added bonus of Risactonia and Black Atom, two bands that are always good to watch. And I have been informed that Blaze’s solo material sounds nothing like that of his previous employers. Anyway, who can resist a good metal gig? This is Aberdeen after all, a lonely outpost that plays host to such diverse names as David Gray and Coldplay. It’s just too good an opportunity to miss. By the time Blaze come on, a steady crowd has gathered, largely made up of old Maiden fans, who seem to crawl out of the woodwork whenever such events come around, plus a good number of metal kids. Even Fudge decide to grace us with their presence. Black seems to be the colour of choice tonight. The band are dressed in black. The stage is black. And I am wearing, well, white for some reason. The other thing I should mention about the stage is the huge drum-kit that takes up half of it.

    For more information: Thomas Bolding Public Relations Specialist 618-772-8029 [email protected] Phantom Music Management FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE UP THE IRONS: THE SATTELITE FRONTIER January 27, 2013, London, UK – Iron Maiden will expand their music catalog into satellite through a partnership with Sirius XM radio. The partnership aims for a Maiden and heavy metal-exclusive radio program for metal head subscribers. The program will be titled: Up the Irons. The program is set to launch Monday, January 28 in the US and UK. After the success of the band’s 2010 album, The Final Frontier, Steve Smith and co. have decided to branch out further into the radio world. “We received multiple suggestions on how to further reach our fan base. After careful consideration, and somewhat-chaotic research, we’ve decided Sirius XM radio brings us closer to casual metal listeners. Some radio stations contacted us in the past and even helped our success with Number of the Beast and so on, but XM provides the seclusion, the listener-friendly experience. And that’s what we want the most – for our fans, and music fans in general, to be happy,” said assistant band manager Roy Schofield. Maiden plans to promote The Final Frontier, but also works from their classic catalogue including: Powerslave, Killers, and Number of the Beast. In collaboration with other metal acts, the radio program aims to build an appreciation of heavy metal and its various sub-genres. “You’ll get Run to the Hills, but you may even hear Rime of the Ancient Mariner, or even Phantom of the Opera.

  • 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.

  • Powerslave E As Apropriações Da Visualidade Do Antigo Egito: Relações E 1 Reflexões
    Erro! Nenhum texto com o estilo especificado foi encontrado no documento. 229 Powerslave e as apropriações da visualidade do Antigo Egito: relações e 1 reflexões Nathany A. W. Belmaia2 Henrique Bueno Bresciani3 Luiz C. Ferraz Manini4 Érika Rabelo Myiamoto5 Hilton Tonussi Oliveira6 Thaís Aires Silva7 Resumo: Grande parte da produção cultural está sujeita às mais variadas formas de apropriação. Aqui propomos tecer uma reflexão geral acerca de diversos aspectos versados na capa do álbum intitulado Powerslave, da banda Iron Maiden, como a relação entre produção, consumo e apropriação de elementos da cultura do Antigo Egito pela indústria cultural da década de 1980. Também debatemos a ressignificação desses elementos para funcionar no contexto fantasioso da ilustração. Por fim, abordamos a relação da morte com o rock e, finalmente, como as funções específicas da capa como proteção do LP e a sua funcionalidade como suporte visual. Palavras-chave: Iron Maiden, Egito Antigo, Capa de Disco, Powerslave. Abstract: Much of the cultural production is subject to various forms of ownership. Here we propose to weave a reflection, in a very general way about a number of aspects on the cover of the album titled Powerslave, by the musical group Iron Maiden, as the relationship between production, consumption and appropriation of the old elements of Ancient Egyptian culture by the cultural industry of the 1980's. We also discuss the redefinition of these elements to operate in the context of fantasy illustration. Then, we approach the relation between death and rock'n'roll, and finally the specific functions of the cover as a protection and its functionality as visual support.

  • Iron Maiden Announce Details of Concerts in South Africa in May 2016 on the Book of Souls World Tour
    IRON MAIDEN ANNOUNCE DETAILS OF CONCERTS IN SOUTH AFRICA IN MAY 2016 ON THE BOOK OF SOULS WORLD TOUR THE NEW ALBUM “THE BOOK OF SOULS” DEBUTS AT NUMBER 4 IN S.AFRICA, ALSO DEBUTING AT NO.1 IN THE UK AND MANY OTHER COUNTRIES MAIDEN, CREW AND EQUIPMENT TO ARRIVE ON ED FORCE ONE, A BOEING 747-400 JUMBO JET PILOTED BY VOCALIST BRUCE DICKINSON Rock legends IRON MAIDEN whose new studio double album “The Book Of Souls” debuted this week at No 4 in South Africa, will make a massively anticipated return in May on their enormous Boeing 747-400 jumbo jet Ed Force One piloted by vocalist Bruce Dickinson and carrying band, crew and stage production and equipment. Maiden will play two shows: May 18 in Cape Town at the Grand Arena followed by May 21 at the Johannesburg Carnival City Festival Lawns. Bruce comments; “We cannot wait to get back out on tour. When we start in the USA in late February it will be 19 months since our last show at Sonisphere in the UK so we are raring to go. Maiden thrive on touring and getting out to our fans, it’s what we do best, so it will be a great feeling to board our new Jumbo Ed Force One with the crew and the gear and head round the globe and get back on stage for you guys. I’m especially delighted to be coming to South Africa, as although the band has played here before, it’ll be the first time that Adrian Smith and myself will be touring here as part of Iron Maiden, so we’re really looking forward to seeing all our fans! “Of course we haven't decided on the set list as yet and won’t until we start rehearsing but we really look forward to playing a number of new songs live, especially as the recording was so much live.

  • 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).
