Loved seeing the world slavery shirt too. Many still have that shirt , and was awesome to see it the vid. A great comeback-like video and new song imo..\m/
If anyone from Maidens team reads this....I'm now deaf due to inner ear issues. I will never be able to hear your music ever again but would like to thank you for all the amazing shows I was able to go to over the years and of course the incredible music itself. Up the irons for life!!! ( And don't worry if the new albums crap, I can't hear it lol)
That sucks man. Anyway, if you don't mind, this is basically what happens in the song; an acoustic intro > badass guitar riff > Bruce starts singing > a nice melodic but semi fast guitar solo from 3:44 to 5:10, until Bruce starts singing, then the song ends. I honestly don't know if this makes you feel better or worse, but up the irons either way
I don't think these guys will ever have the slightest idea of how immesurably huge their impact has been on the lives of so many people. Thank you, Maiden! You are, and will always be, the be(a)st!
This is pure love and passion. When you are 60+, with an unbelievable story in music, you could retire and call it the day. But no, here we are, delivering every single drop of blood in awesome music... Just... Up the fucking Irons!!!!!!
I have been fighting cancer for last 7 months and needed morale to overcome this process. Nothing helped as much as this premiere. Hope to hear all the new album soon as well. Thank you Maiden!! 🤘🤘🤘 Edit: Blood brothers, I will go into surgery on November 8th. I believe I will defeat this and end this hell on earth with the prayers and best wishes of yours. I love you all. Up the Irons!! 🤘
I've always passively respected Iron Maiden for their legacy. Never sought out their music per se but never turned it off either. But after just having found this, this has got to be the coolest MV I've ever seen.
3am it premiered here in Australia ... i was up at 2:55 ... & i was not disappointed ... been a Maiden fan since 1981 ... they are & always will be my favourite band & it's their ability to suprise & constantly deliver quality that makes me so proud to be a Maiden fan ... i simply love everything they do ... UP THE IRONS !
I heard this song past year and, even if I love Iron Maiden I'm not one of the hardest fans. So my first thought was "Oh, I missed this old song", then realized it was new. It's amazing how they can make something new while keeping their roots.
I absolutely love how Adrian’s solo hits that glorious crescendo just as the Four Horsemen Eddies burst through the windows…gives me chills every time I watch it.
9.4 million views in about 3 weeks... you guys have no idea how much that means to me and how proud I am of Iron Maiden. This band, this music is something i grew up with. Its in my blood and even engraved into my DNA by now. Good music like this is eternal. Very much looking forward to the new album! 🥰
Maiden has had an amazing run. Nice to see them still going! But the torch is getting passed to the next generation. Check out the band: LOVEBITES. ( They are the next Iron Maiden. 5 gorgeous women from Japan, will be the future! )
Yeah, this is a good one, and it follows up a very strong late career album in The Book of Souls, which is my favourite release of theirs since Seventh Son.
Without accepting Jesus Christ nobody can be judged into heaven. God is a holy God who does not allow any sins to be in heaven. He was gracious enough to become flesh, sacrificed Himself, buried, and resurrected so that anyone who accepts Him as Savior for their sins will be righteously judged into heaven. Hope you will believe that soon. 🙏
I'm 50 in August.been listening to maiden since number of the beast came out..it must be hard to make something great even better..Maiden are timeless .🤘🤘🤘
It's amazing how much this band means to us all, after all this years. A band that never disappointed any of their true fans. Up the Irons from Croatia!
For those that dont know, AThe flyer from the introduction says balshezaars feast which is a famous ancient painting of Babylon, balshezaar was the last ruler of Babylon and is involved in biblical story about imminent intervention from what is claimed to be god itself. It's a dark tale of foreboding and warning. Fitting for this.
In the Bible story, Belshazzar was unworthy of the empire he had inherited. The video says the same thing about the political classes of America, the UK, and China: three once great cultures are now ruled by corrupt, unworthy imbeciles.
I've been listening to Iron Maiden since I was a young lad, and I have to say, they have been one of my all time favorite bands as they never disappoint. Bruce Dickinson, Steve Harris and the rest of the Maiden crew are friggin' geniuses. Please don't ever stop! Up the irons!
Some of the cleanest animation I've ever seen and littered with references from all my favorite songs and albums, you've truly outdone yourself Iron Maiden, up the irons!
This is a classic song and video. The music and craftsmanship is brilliant. It will take a major effort to better this work, past or future. My hats off to the band and the brilliant people who made this possible. Thank you for all your efforts, well worth it.
I have been faithful to this band from the very beginning. The eighties were the best years of my life. I love this musical atmosphere and Bruce Dickinson's vocals. Each new song awakens new emotions in me. Play as long as possible until the end of the world. Best Regards from Poland
Mine too Dariusz. The 80s were simply brilliant for music. Luckily saw all the mega bands in both the 70s and the 80s, whilst in England. What times they were. But heh Maidon are still going, and are still brilliant. How do they do it...
@@dariuszradlowski576 i live in Berlin and arrived here not long before the Wall came down, so yes as Maiden say "The writings on the Wall" Wonder if they will ever tour again or just make studio albums
I was 4 years old when I first heard Iron Maiden play from one of my Uncle's old records he had stashed away in his bookcase and thought to myself WOW, it was "Powerslave" to be precise. 29 Years later, and they STILL remain my favourite band of all time, and for good reason. The rock n roll hall of fame can jump of a bridge and die in all fairness. No one deserves to be inducted into it more than Iron Maiden.
Honestly the fact is simple.. Iron Maiden is music for the people of the world. Stupid Hall of Fame lost any credibility decades ago and is just in it for themselves NOT THE FANS of Rock. They can keep their stupid HOF and WE will keep OUR MAIDEN. Up the Irons!!
@@patolucaspato163 not as funny as your English chump, go back listening to Drake … Bruce is 62 and cancer took a lot out of him so cut him some slack please.
Been a fan of Maiden since I was a kid, 30 years or so. What I'm really liking about the stuff they're doing these days is that they're making songs that demand several listens to really appreciate. They're not just churning out a series of "rock on" moments. Each song has so much going on that you need to listen, and relisten, and relisten again...they're not a "greatest hits" band and they're not just coasting along. UP THE IRONS!
@limelight81 That seems like a very subjective thing though. For me it's gotten better and more interesting with each listen. It's not a song that immediately grabbed me and made me want to riff along with it, but the more I listen to it, the more I can appreciate the layers of it.
I give that a Hell yea! Khorne Approves i guess. :D There are quite a few of those types of songs out there over the centuries, not only from maiden. The literal ART imo is tho, that it can give you a different ... lets call it "vibe" - depending on your current situation. If you listen alone, while driving, while working, while relaxing, or with people on a party or working out doing whatever is also influencing it like your overall current mood. This could propably also be the reason why limelight81 does no like it.
@@ArgelTal_ I totally get what you mean. I’ve noticed that effect a lot from the “recent” Maiden albums (everything from Brace New World onwards is “recent” in my head for some reason). I react differently to this song when I’m driving or walking the pup compared to when I’m painting minis. The songs from A Matter Of Life And Death have a sad vibe for me because I was on anti depressants and had insomnia when it came out.
@limelight81 I have NOT heard ANY "Country vibes" in this song. And, I am in the USA, and COUNTRY music is VERY popular here, and I DESPISE it. SOME "country music" is a form of POP music. It is basically a slowed down version of POP music where they add some twangs here and there, and the vocalist sings it with a certain 'twang" in their voice.
No, they are just churning out the same old shit they started pumping out 40 plus years ago. It’s a dull, plodding, predictable formula that appeals to dull, plodding predictable retards.
Just like the desert 🏝️ we live in... Nw0 also churning same old tic TOC 💣 bomb... it's a kind of fates warning for the world 🌍🌎.... it is a zeitgeist song, just like some from beginning of the millennium... Ain't it fun, strangers in a strange,rs Land....
I lost a very close friend of mine this year, he was a HUGE fan of Iron Maiden. God I am sure how much he would have loved this track ! RIP my friend !
I can say that, not just personally for me but for many of us, the impact of the Iron Maiden or Scorpions names are really fuckin heavy in music in general 🤟
Just another maiden track that makes the hair stand on end, couldn’t imagine a world without them, no other comes close. In an ever changing world this band has kept me sane, thank you lads don’t ever stop, 44 years old and feeling like a teen again with my Walkman up full blast 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
It's another masterpiece. One of so many Maiden have written. I first saw this band live in 1982 and have been a fan ever since, seeing them live 6 times. I'm now 57 and still listen to them regularly.
Tonight in Sioux Falls was my first time. I'm 40. That was not a concert. That was an experience! If there is not a higher power....explain these guys. My God was that something else!
Once our Empires glorious, but now the Empires gone, the dead gave us the time to live, and now our time is done These lines are some real food for thought about our modern day & age. Can't help but keep coming back to this...
Couldn't identify all the references, but here are some cool ones: 0:48 - Aces High store 0:52 - Book of Souls Tour plane 0:57 - Hanged Icarus 1:00 - The Trooper's flag and 2 Minutes to Midnight clock 1:36 - Final Frontier Eddie (A Matter of Life and Death Eddie's cap and goggles on the cross?) 1:48 - Nicko's Teddy Bear 1:49 - R101 zeppelin (Empire of the Clouds) 4:54 - Killers Eddie 4:56 - A "piece" of mind lol 4:58 - Dance of Death Eddie 5:03 - Somewhere in Time Eddie 5:09 - Powerslave Eddie 5:44 - DCLXVI - 666
Thinking of my buddy Jason today who passed in late 2020. This will be the first Iron Maiden song we will not get to hear and talk about together. Rest In Power \m/
There are a ton of little references to Maiden’s history in this video. Very well done! It brought back the feeling of looking at the Somewhere in Time sleeve spotting all the details.
These are all the “symbols” and references I was able to perceive. If anyone thinks I missed any, please add them below: -Man with World Slavery Tour shirt. -Four Eddies on motorcycles resembling the four horsemen of the Apocalypse. -Book of Souls Eddie on rear wing of crashed plane. -Clock with 2 minutes to midnight (or midday?), right before the 4 Eddies go out of scene. -Card with Eddie’s face (behind the scorpion). -Trump look-alike sitting on a vehicle similar to the one in which JFK was killed. -Three faceless British men behind the Trump look-alike, with their unsewn trousers showing the Union Jack on their underwear. -Gravestone with “No Prayer for the Dying” as its epitaph. -Gaddafi look-alike with a sheep doll sitted while being pulled on a giant Chinese dragon-tank with a bomb on its mouth. -Lots of people (migrants?), including children, looking behind the wall/gates guarded by shooters. -Clown with multiple arms entertaining the people inside the palace/oasis, which has a (green lake of?) fire in its center. -Human-looking creature being nurtured by liquid in which Adam and Eve are suspended. -Migrant who crosses the wall/gate being instantly killed. -Eddie becoming a samurai after falling into the fire, turning it blue and turning the human-looking creature into a goat-esque entity (the Beast?), to later nail it into an inverted pentagram with has what each horsemen represents inscripted on it. -The four Eddies are the ones from the albums: Killers, Dance of Death, Somewhere in Time, and Powerslave (?), based on their appearance and what they use to kill the people inside the palace. -Powerslave (?) Eddie spits robotic locusts out of its mouth. -The clown, the Trump look-alike, and the Gadaffi look-alike have their brains blown out. -Samurai Eddie releases Adam and Eve. -Car with American flags has “Pres 1” on its plate and “666” in Roman numbers on its side. -Adam and Eve eat the apple Samurai Eddie hands them as they ride away from the exploding background.
@@andrestapia4782 0:49 - The ruined shop at the right is named "Aces High" and seems to have been selling weed acording to the leaf on the glass 0:59 - There's a winged skeleton hanging from the ruined Golden Gate bridge which may be a reference to Flight of Icarus 1:21 - There's "Up The Irons" and "Eddie Lives" graffiti on the broken pipe and oil drum on the left hand side of the shot. On the ground you can spot the silver "Eddie's Archives Box" 1:24 - On the broken pipes it says Throne, but not sure what that means/references. Sic Transit Gloria Mundi translates to "so passes worldly glory". 1:37 - In front of the No prayer for the dying head stone there is a dead astronaut from "the final frontier". The cross to the right in the same frame has dog tags and a leather flight helmet that the spitfire pilots used (Aces High) 1:49 - You can see an airship wreck referencing The Empire of The Clouds. The Beer cans on the cliff are Troopers I also noted that the american flags on the presidents car didn't have any stars (states) left.
I actually get a slight desert blues vibe from the repeating guitar riff and the desert imagery. I haven't listened to much Iron Maiden but maybe I should. I like this a lot!
Listening to Iron Maiden all those years is a neverending feast to my ears. Thanks again for being the best band of all times. This new song is great !
finally someone created a heavy metal video that looks like heavy metal videos my imagination was drawing since I was a kid. I was always thinking, that metal videos shall be as epic as the music. Thanks for making my dreams and expectations come true. My sincere respect to the band and the creators of the video. Iron Maiden rocks!
@@blaynegreiner9365 This ain't metal, get over it. If you think this is Metal then you're a filthy casual, sounds like a damn Bon Jovi song. Don't get me wrong as I've been a Maiden fan for 25+ years, but this is meh....
How can this sound so Maiden, yet not sound like anything by Maiden? I guess that's what you get when you're old, skilled but still fresh and inspired to create art. As always - it's fucking good and rewarding to be an Iron Maiden fan.
4:23 = Eddie (Senjutsu) 4:54 = Eddie (Killers) 4:58 = Eddie (Dance of Death) 5:05 = Eddie (Somewhere in Time) 5:10 = Eddie (Powerslave) 5:15 = Eddie (Book of Souls)
I think the Killers one might also be the same one as Number of The Beast because of the hatchet (Which is shown in one of the pieces of art made for NotB)
Maiden has always had their own unique way of making you feel like you are a part of each and every masterpiece they create. This is why I've been a fan since I was 14 years old I'm now 48. As always they never disappoint! Well done gentlemen!
IRON MAIDEN, and Stephen King books, the two enduring constants in my life, right from the very first time that I found them in the late 70's, and early 80's. IRON MAIDEN are the best rock/metal band ever.
@@-HolySpiritDove- That is the Christian doctrines version, which didn’t arrive on scene until 1,300 after Torah, 700 years after the Book of Isaiah. Which happens to be the biggest deception of all time. The nations will be ashamed and disgraced. Israel, will be redeemed again. It happens to be a reoccurring theme throughout the Hebrew Bible. The Christian doctrine….is a progressive revelation designed to deceive the generations throughout the centuries. A test from God, warned about in Deuteronomy 13. Someone needs to inform Bruce.
I'm just shy of fifty, and yet I still feel like that ten year old boy picking up the number of the beast album for the first time. I've never looked back. Up the Irons.
Great comment! I have a question though. Im not a native English speaker so Im curious: when you say "I'm shy of fifty" does it mean that you are a couple years above or below 50? Thanks and Up the Irons!
It’s amazing how Maiden can ring with a different audience. I’m in high school. I learned about I.M. from my dad, and I hear songs from this album in my schools hallways.
I finally seen him a Portland Oregon 2019 was badass a lost my voice and good drunk and got thrown find I'm at all anywhere and I'll supposed to sign boost Dickinson book lol next time we'll happen peace out solid gold
Same here man, i'm in high school too and the repetitive lady gaga or selena gomez songs got old. My father introduced me to maiden and it's like discovering a new world altogether
I turned 56 Monday the 26 /08. Today is Sunday the 1st of September. Iron maiden is playing in Perth tonight. Going to see this amazing band of song singers. The story lines iron maiden sings with great guitar riffs dig deep into your soul . Looking forward to seeing Iron Maiden.
Exactly the impression I had, representing the past, the greed, the division of people by politics, from the great leaders, Chinese, American, among others ... and at the end where it all started...
Adrian Smith's solo in the song is probably my favourite all-time Smith solos. The notes, bends, etc. is just so perfect. Its one of those "I wish I wrote that" solos!
I have no words. True to style despite time, without losing their identity. Its Iron Maiden beeing a gratest and finest Iron Maiden trough time. BEST BAND Of THE WORLD. 🤟🤟🤟🇺🇾
Literally sitting here preparing lesson notes for a College Bible Study on Daniel when this pops up. Maiden's biblical theology is better than many church's. Killer song, keep it coming!
Does anyone else feel like this video should have been part of the 1980's animated cult classic "Heavy Metal"??? It seriously emanates that kind of vibe; Not to mention, it's just a badass song! 🤘🤘🤘
40 years after and Mainden does it again. That's why there will never be a second band remotely close to this!!! Absolute LEGENDS. Can't wait to see you back in NYC 😎
Great Song and great Band. One of my personal favorites are helloween who just have released a fantastic new album in reunion with kai hansen (godfather of power metal) and michael kiske (for me the best metal singer from back in the days until now) ... check out the videos from skyfall and fear of the fallen 🤓🤘🏻
I can't wait for the cover, this day i literally watched all his Maiden covers once again, im learning Alexander the Great and his video is helping me a lot with the techniques and a lot of other things, i remember watching his cover of the song in 2013/2014 and now im learning it, it's like dream coming true really!🤘🤘🤘
I can just see Samurai Eddie and Dystopia Vic Rattlehead throwing Metallica stars and shooting flamethrowers from a Pantera tank. With Slayer blood raining. Someone please make that a video. 😄🤘🏻
I remember Steve Harris saying that Bruce even at 80% is better than most singers out there and he was spot on. Never gonna be the same Bruce from the 80's but even now after 40 odd years of touring still a force to be reckoned with, and the slightly lower register works. Works for me anyway, I managed to sing along to this one in my car without rupturing 20 blood vessels in each eye, and without shiting myself......bonus!
That solo brought me back into the 80’s, and not in a ‘oh they’re trying and it kinda sounds like the 80’s’ kind of way, but a ‘Wow, it’s actually the 80’s again’ kind of way.
Agreed, it sounds like it's from the era of Piece of Mind or Powerslave. I have hopes for Senjutsu; this is only just a taste of it, so I wonder how the others will sound. Lost in a Lost World might be interesting, and the title is almost like Stranger in a Strange Land from Somewhere in Time, my favorite album.
The message of this song rings true in these troubled times. Only a platoon of Eddies can save us and show us the way... Here's to many more years gentlemen. Up The Irons!
@@calio99 naw, the masses of everyday people in the world can still throw off their chains, but the poor and more stable poor (the middle class) just need to see the real enemies, which is not each other… “They got the guns, but we got the numbers”, and Jim Morrison might have sung that with a snarl, being much more hippy than yippie, but the sentiment still rings true (and yeah, in America a lot of working and middle class have guns, but they also seem to be confused who’s face should be painted on their practice targets). Is it a long shot for humanity to get the W? Yup, and it’s hard not to be blackpilled given the darkness of the times, but the reality is that the status quo quite literally cannot continue, because our planet’s ecology cannot sustain this level of extraction and pollution, let alone an increase.. Look, right wing, left wing, chicken wing: everyday people are going to have to get over differing cultural affinities, turn off Fox, CNN, OAN, MSNBC, etc, stop listening to the dividing and divisive propaganda, and start thinking about what is in the actual material interest of our children, and their children’s children, 7th child of the 7th, etc… The notion that cultural difference between urban and rural everyday people should erase their material interests is absurd, and a dangerous lie that has, along with a lot of other propaganda meant to divide, been the reason things have been able to get so bad. Sorry, I know that’s a lot, and I don’t wanna talk politics in Iron Maiden comment sections, but this is obviously a political video, and well, this thread and your comment specifically invited it, especially since you went full doomer, so I felt I had to try and pull you back from the edge. I’ve a feeling we probably have very different politics, but again that’s probably largely a matter of media consumption and differing cultural affinities, and it in no way, shape or form erases our shared material interests, and those of our future progeny. Defeating the enemy of this planet, of humanity and basically all life, isn’t going to be easy, but the window hasn’t closed on opportunity, and again, this planet cannot and will not sustain the status quo, so there WILL be a great reckoning, the question is will everyday people, the working classes of the planet, join hands and work together to save it, or will a boot smash our faces into the dirt, forever. (Or at least until the sun expands and vaporizes this planet once and for all.)
@@calio99 January 6th was a bunch of "small business" people being upset about being lumped in with the lower class and pretending they know how to protest, or what it takes to topple a government. They don't want to throw off the chains, they want to hold the reigns.
@@edtExodus are you talking about small businesses being the individual? That ur social Security number is nothing but ur slave identification? Rich democommies like Bezos, tim apple , jaime diamond, George Soros, suckerberg, and all the other big demonrat corporate zombies got u thinking it's the Christian s holding u down, lol. I would agree. And now that 10 trillion dollars have gotten stolen in the last 2 years, you're going to be paying 85% total taxation soon. but look on the bright side. Why does the USA with not even being in the top three most populous countries have the most death and cases? It's because you're under attack and screwed. And for all you fakos who want to challenge me.....India doesn't have lockdowns.
@@calio99 Bezos is the very epitome of liberal economics. That you'd call him a "commie" really speaks volumes about how well you grasp the problem. You think the big money behind the other party is any better? Two "sides" barely even fighting each other over who gets to come first in fucking the lower class over, and one of them still has you licking their boot.
Maiden and other bands like this have changed my life, I’ve lost a leg and escaped death twice, everytime I get down about that shit I throw some maiden on and headbang it out my system. Sincerest love and respect, up the iron!!!! 🙏🏻🙌🏻🏴🔊
My second ever Iron Maiden concert was on 2022. Curtiba, Brazil. I spent the whole day prior listening to the Senjutsu album so I would be prepared. Holy crap, I remember when they played this one. It was glorious. Actual chills went down as we all sang along and as Bruce encouraged us too finish the sentence “Can you see… THE WRITING ON THE WALL!”. It was glorious.
this is a masterpiece....From the lyrics and composition, to the animation itself - it's truly a masterpiece. I love how the animation combines aesthetic natures from the 80s and 90s with modern animation techniques. I haven't really been keeping up with bands like I should, but it makes me happy to see Iron maiden still gifting us with their music.
We hope you enjoyed the Feast! #TheWritingOnTheWall
We fucking did! Thank you Maiden! Up the irons!
Welcome back!!! We missed you!!!
WE LOVE YOU ALL
Love the new song and can't wait for the new album.
Sure! Up the Irons 🤟🏻

WOW!
Loved seeing the world slavery shirt too. Many still have that shirt , and was awesome to see it the vid. A great comeback-like video and new song imo..\m/
someone did the homework !!!
How many bands can drop one of their best ever songs after 46 years together. Absolute legends
True!
Agree with you, but to be honest, their squad was changing.
Wouldn't say it was there best song but very strong one carnt wait for the new album
Not Maiden! This song sucks.
Horrible song
Iron Maiden aged like wine and never lost its essence
If anyone from Maidens team reads this....I'm now deaf due to inner ear issues. I will never be able to hear your music ever again but would like to thank you for all the amazing shows I was able to go to over the years and of course the incredible music itself.
Up the irons for life!!!
( And don't worry if the new albums crap, I can't hear it lol)
😢 oh man I'm so sorry that you can't enjoy it with us
God bless your soul 👏 and if you don’t believe in God… Up The Irons, blood brother!
Damn, it hurts me, I’m with you, and I give you my support
That sucks man. Anyway, if you don't mind, this is basically what happens in the song; an acoustic intro > badass guitar riff > Bruce starts singing > a nice melodic but semi fast guitar solo from 3:44 to 5:10, until Bruce starts singing, then the song ends. I honestly don't know if this makes you feel better or worse, but up the irons either way
@@LageRUclips that’s still great
I don't think these guys will ever have the slightest idea of how immesurably huge their impact has been on the lives of so many people. Thank you, Maiden! You are, and will always be, the be(a)st!
Amen! God bless Iron Maiden!
Amen!!!
A-fucking-men brother. Wouldnt be who i am today without them
My whole world changed for the better today! Up the IRONS BEASTS!!!!
This is all that needs to be said...amen brother! UP THE IRONS!!
The world needs Iron Maiden in times likes these!
Stop being so dramatic. Geez
Is true .. imagine a world without maiden ... maiden for life !!!!!!
Adrian's solo is a gem, true gold, what a technique
Ii literally gives me goosebumps each time 🤘
The Opening Bend is From a Different Planet!
And the live version of Adrian's solo is 200% waaaaay better, always brings me down to tears 😭🤘
This is pure love and passion. When you are 60+, with an unbelievable story in music, you could retire and call it the day. But no, here we are, delivering every single drop of blood in awesome music... Just... Up the fucking Irons!!!!!!
This is why Iron Maiden is and always will be my favourite band in the world. They age like fine wine!
I’ll drink to that! 🤌
No doubt about that!!!
A bit meh. The song is quite sluggish and some part remind me Como Esta Amigos
And they put on the best live shows!!!! Seen them every time they have come to CA since 2005!!
Shit. I saw them at the Forum 2 days after I had a spinal surgery. Insane pain, but soo worth it
I have been fighting cancer for last 7 months and needed morale to overcome this process. Nothing helped as much as this premiere. Hope to hear all the new album soon as well. Thank you Maiden!! 🤘🤘🤘
Edit: Blood brothers, I will go into surgery on November 8th. I believe I will defeat this and end this hell on earth with the prayers and best wishes of yours. I love you all. Up the Irons!! 🤘
Best wishes and good luck from England.
Best wishes from Greece, mate! Up the Irons!
Good luck with that fight my friend, Stay positive!
Good luck and hope you are healthy soon! From Tbilisi, Georgia!
Cancer suck he’ll die. You will win this war. Best wishes for you bro from Russia
I've always passively respected Iron Maiden for their legacy. Never sought out their music per se but never turned it off either. But after just having found this, this has got to be the coolest MV I've ever seen.
3am it premiered here in Australia ... i was up at 2:55 ... & i was not disappointed ... been a Maiden fan since 1981 ... they are & always will be my favourite band & it's their ability to suprise & constantly deliver quality that makes me so proud to be a Maiden fan ... i simply love everything they do ... UP THE IRONS !
Totally agree man. I love the big four as much as anyone but Maiden definitely deserves a spot in there as well.
I can't believe that 40 years have passed and these guys keep on surpassing themselves. GO MAIDEN!
I heard this song past year and, even if I love Iron Maiden I'm not one of the hardest fans. So my first thought was "Oh, I missed this old song", then realized it was new.
It's amazing how they can make something new while keeping their roots.
I absolutely love how Adrian’s solo hits that glorious crescendo just as the Four Horsemen Eddies burst through the windows…gives me chills every time I watch it.
Unbelievable part of the video
Adrian' solo makes me sleep! A burden for the song and the band
@@odpro5587 Troll....Adrian's solo made me cry...😢
@@odpro5587 haha, that's the most troll bait comment ever. Adrian's solo is amazing.

I'm guessing smith's is the second solo?
@@Gabe-d9x Yes, the first one is played by Dave
How do these guys just shit out awesome guitar riffs like this for 50 years? Insane. Fucking love them so much.
Passion. Genuine, unadulterated passion.
It sounds like Kvelertak's "Evig Vandrar". Even the music video is in similar style.
@George Washington IQ the same as yer shoe size.
Maybe we're living in bad times, but at least we're living in the time when Iron Maiden is alive in classic lineup and it's fucking great.
At least! And Helloween times too! 🤘🏻

Helloween album is very good, I agree.
We need these two to tour together.
Very well said my friend.

It felt like an eternity.
Still, waaay better than those sellouts from Metallica.
Yeah, this is a good one, and it follows up a very strong late career album in The Book of Souls, which is my favourite release of theirs since Seventh Son.
Such a great song and video. Takes me back to the old "Heavy Metal" movies/magazine days. SO GOOD!!!!
I will never forget how much Iron Maiden has changed my life. I live to rock once more. Thank you Iron Maiden.
Without accepting Jesus Christ nobody can be judged into heaven. God is a holy God who does not allow any sins to be in heaven. He was gracious enough to become flesh, sacrificed Himself, buried, and resurrected so that anyone who accepts Him as Savior for their sins will be righteously judged into heaven. Hope you will believe that soon. 🙏

Up the mighty IRONS forever.
It's amazing how much this band means to us all, after all this years. A band that never disappointed any of their true fans. Up the Irons from Croatia!

For those that dont know, AThe flyer from the introduction says balshezaars feast which is a famous ancient painting of Babylon, balshezaar was the last ruler of Babylon and is involved in biblical story about imminent intervention from what is claimed to be god itself. It's a dark tale of foreboding and warning. Fitting for this.
Just a bunch of satanic shit
Someone who's getting it, I hope for everyones sake that it's not set in stone for whats to come.
In the Bible story, Belshazzar was unworthy of the empire he had inherited. The video says the same thing about the political classes of America, the UK, and China: three once great cultures are now ruled by corrupt, unworthy imbeciles.
Except in that story, Jesus wins
@@zachzervas9525 I believe Christ wins in this one as well. 🤣 I'm gambling on it with potential high stakes lol
I've been listening to Iron Maiden since I was a young lad, and I have to say, they have been one of my all time favorite bands as they never disappoint. Bruce Dickinson, Steve Harris and the rest of the Maiden crew are friggin' geniuses. Please don't ever stop! Up the irons!
Some of the cleanest animation I've ever seen and littered with references from all my favorite songs and albums, you've truly outdone yourself Iron Maiden, up the irons!
Reminds me ALOT of the Heavy Metal movies.
@@MorteWulfe yeah, old school animation like that. But more detail.
When Eddie transformed into a samurai that was pure eye candy 🤌👌
I haven't seen anything like this for a long time... and it's fuckin beautiful!
said it, bring back classics ever so often when everything loses identity, and all sound the same
It's G.D. beautiful. Eddie and Maiden still rocking in 2021 is a great thing.
reminds me of the old Ralph Bakshi cartoons.
Seriously? You must not listen to much metal. This is fuckin boring.
Not since night begins to shine maybe
This is a classic song and video. The music and craftsmanship is brilliant. It will take a major effort to better this work, past or future. My hats off to the band and the brilliant people who made this possible. Thank you for all your efforts, well worth it.
I have been faithful to this band from the very beginning. The eighties were the best years of my life. I love this musical atmosphere and Bruce Dickinson's vocals. Each new song awakens new emotions in me. Play as long as possible until the end of the world.
Best Regards from Poland
Long Live Maiden!
Mine too Dariusz. The 80s were simply brilliant for music. Luckily saw all the mega bands in both the 70s and the 80s, whilst in England. What times they were. But heh Maidon are still going, and are still brilliant. How do they do it...
@@davidwilliamgay4821 I think they are like in this video - The Writing On The Wall

REM ITS MAIDEN FOR LIFE
I was 4 years old when I first heard Iron Maiden play from one of my Uncle's old records he had stashed away in his bookcase and thought to myself WOW, it was "Powerslave" to be precise. 29 Years later, and they STILL remain my favourite band of all time, and for good reason. The rock n roll hall of fame can jump of a bridge and die in all fairness. No one deserves to be inducted into it more than Iron Maiden.
Honestly the fact is simple.. Iron Maiden is music for the people of the world. Stupid Hall of Fame lost any credibility decades ago and is just in it for themselves NOT THE FANS of Rock. They can keep their stupid HOF and WE will keep OUR MAIDEN. Up the Irons!!
The RNRHOF is not big enough for Maiden. Fuck those clowns!
Couldn’t Agree More!
Yeah..it is a joke that are not in HOF. Just like Cheap Trick took so long to be acknowledged...they have to be next time.
Fucking jay zed, notorious FAT, Witney Houston, Janet Jackson, all in before maiden!
A new Iron Maiden video in 2021 feels like winning the lottery. I'm gonna listen this song a million time, I bet.
тебе для этого понадобится почти 14 лет, без перерыва.. 🤔
You got a new subscriber just for saying that… been a Maiden fan since 86
I concur....I am well on my way already! Absolutely killer song🤘
Idk, like when most musicians get older it fell a bit flat compared to older work, especially vocals.
@@patolucaspato163 not as funny as your English chump, go back listening to Drake … Bruce is 62 and cancer took a lot out of him so cut him some slack please.

A real classic bro
@@moisturisedgnome1181 Indeed
Amen, Brother!! \m/
Been a fan of Maiden since I was a kid, 30 years or so.
What I'm really liking about the stuff they're doing these days is that they're making songs that demand several listens to really appreciate. They're not just churning out a series of "rock on" moments. Each song has so much going on that you need to listen, and relisten, and relisten again...they're not a "greatest hits" band and they're not just coasting along.
UP THE IRONS!
@limelight81 That seems like a very subjective thing though. For me it's gotten better and more interesting with each listen. It's not a song that immediately grabbed me and made me want to riff along with it, but the more I listen to it, the more I can appreciate the layers of it.
Well said, I feel the same way.
I give that a Hell yea! Khorne Approves i guess. :D
There are quite a few of those types of songs out there over the centuries, not only from maiden.
The literal ART imo is tho, that it can give you a different ... lets call it "vibe" - depending on your current situation.
If you listen alone, while driving, while working, while relaxing, or with people on a party or working out doing whatever is also influencing it like your overall current mood.
This could propably also be the reason why limelight81 does no like it.
@@ArgelTal_ I totally get what you mean. I’ve noticed that effect a lot from the “recent” Maiden albums (everything from Brace New World onwards is “recent” in my head for some reason). I react differently to this song when I’m driving or walking the pup compared to when I’m painting minis. The songs from A Matter Of Life And Death have a sad vibe for me because I was on anti depressants and had insomnia when it came out.
@limelight81 I have NOT heard ANY "Country vibes" in this song. And, I am in the USA, and COUNTRY music is VERY popular here, and I DESPISE it.
SOME "country music" is a form of POP music. It is basically a slowed down version of POP music where they add some twangs here and there, and the vocalist sings it with a certain 'twang" in their voice.
more than 40 years later and they still doing what they do best : being the Iron Maiden
No, they are just churning out the same old shit they started pumping out 40 plus years ago. It’s a dull, plodding, predictable formula that appeals to dull, plodding predictable retards.
@@elcamionero1200 wait what band are you talking about?

It's another masterpiece. One of so many Maiden have written. I first saw this band live in 1982 and have been a fan ever since, seeing them live 6 times. I'm now 57 and still listen to them regularly.
Shit, man, I feel young and ungrateful! I’ve only been into them since last May, and I haven’t gotten to see them live at all.

There are a ton of little references to Maiden’s history in this video. Very well done! It brought back the feeling of looking at the Somewhere in Time sleeve spotting all the details.
These are all the “symbols” and references I was able to perceive. If anyone thinks I missed any, please add them below:
-Man with World Slavery Tour shirt.
-Four Eddies on motorcycles resembling the four horsemen of the Apocalypse.
-Book of Souls Eddie on rear wing of crashed plane.
-Clock with 2 minutes to midnight (or midday?), right before the 4 Eddies go out of scene.
-Card with Eddie’s face (behind the scorpion).
-Trump look-alike sitting on a vehicle similar to the one in which JFK was killed.
-Three faceless British men behind the Trump look-alike, with their unsewn trousers showing the Union Jack on their underwear.
-Gravestone with “No Prayer for the Dying” as its epitaph.
-Gaddafi look-alike with a sheep doll sitted while being pulled on a giant Chinese dragon-tank with a bomb on its mouth.
-Lots of people (migrants?), including children, looking behind the wall/gates guarded by shooters.
-Clown with multiple arms entertaining the people inside the palace/oasis, which has a (green lake of?) fire in its center.
-Human-looking creature being nurtured by liquid in which Adam and Eve are suspended.
-Migrant who crosses the wall/gate being instantly killed.
-Eddie becoming a samurai after falling into the fire, turning it blue and turning the human-looking creature into a goat-esque entity (the Beast?), to later nail it into an inverted pentagram with has what each horsemen represents inscripted on it.
-The four Eddies are the ones from the albums: Killers, Dance of Death, Somewhere in Time, and Powerslave (?), based on their appearance and what they use to kill the people inside the palace.
-Powerslave (?) Eddie spits robotic locusts out of its mouth.
-The clown, the Trump look-alike, and the Gadaffi look-alike have their brains blown out.
-Samurai Eddie releases Adam and Eve.
-Car with American flags has “Pres 1” on its plate and “666” in Roman numbers on its side.
-Adam and Eve eat the apple Samurai Eddie hands them as they ride away from the exploding background.

1:21 - There's "Up The Irons" and "Eddie Lives" graffiti on the broken pipe and oil drum on the left hand side of the shot. On the ground you can spot the silver "Eddie's Archives Box"
1:24 - On the broken pipes it says Throne, but not sure what that means/references. Sic Transit Gloria Mundi translates to "so passes worldly glory".
1:37 - In front of the No prayer for the dying head stone there is a dead astronaut from "the final frontier". The cross to the right in the same frame has dog tags and a leather flight helmet that the spitfire pilots used (Aces High)
1:49 - You can see an airship wreck referencing The Empire of The Clouds. The Beer cans on the cliff are Troopers
I also noted that the american flags on the presidents car didn't have any stars (states) left.
I actually get a slight desert blues vibe from the repeating guitar riff and the desert imagery. I haven't listened to much Iron Maiden but maybe I should. I like this a lot!
Listening to Iron Maiden all those years is a neverending feast to my ears. Thanks again for being the best band of all times. This new song is great !

How can this sound so Maiden, yet not sound like anything by Maiden? I guess that's what you get when you're old, skilled but still fresh and inspired to create art. As always - it's fucking good and rewarding to be an Iron Maiden fan.
Well, it sounded more like a Bruce Dickinson solotrack than a Maiden to, imho.
Sounds like it's from the book of souls honestly.
Sounds like Book of Souls, Red and the Black, or Pilgrim.
That's just what great musicians do. They develop new sounds and incorporate them into the store they've already developed.
@@supremeghost7950 I was thinking it sounds like a blend between Book of Souls and Chemical Wedding, but with something new added.

40 years after their first album they're able to make this. Unbelievable.
40 years after their second album actually.
@@BanjoSick You're right. 41 after their first album, 40 after their second one.
I turned 56 Monday the 26 /08.
Today is Sunday the 1st of September. Iron maiden is playing in Perth tonight. Going to see this amazing band of song singers.
The story lines iron maiden sings with great guitar riffs dig deep into your soul .
Looking forward to seeing Iron Maiden.
Друг я с тобой душой и сердцем!!!

I had to find a way to translate your reply.
Thank you 👍
"Any similarity to actual persons, living, dead or fictional, is purely intentional." Masterpiece... Iron Maiden are timeless band.
Where does it say that?
Exactly the impression I had, representing the past, the greed, the division of people by politics, from the great leaders, Chinese, American, among others ... and at the end where it all started...
I think they are trying to defend against to the music's similarity to Feel Like Makin Love by Bad Company.
We are not invited to the Feast! We are here just to push the dying Empire's wagon 🤣🤣😥
You know Janick is going to dance & prance the hell out of that riff, and I'm here for it. 🎸🤘
Less of the prancing and a bit more dancing 🕺
He already did during recording 😎🤘👌🥳
Might even spin that guitar a few times.
Oh joy....they need one less guitar player. HIM.
Jan is the biggest maiden fan ever. his critics are grumps.
Almost 40 years that this music helps me overrun life's obstacles. Thanks guys.
god the animation and the song is so fucking good, hats off to everyone involved in this 🤘
Very similar to the HEAVY METAL movie from the 80's
You can thank him on IG @nicos_yesevil
Never imagined Iron Maiden would come back again.. yes it did and did strongly!
They never went away
They didn't go anywhere.
Adrian Smith's solo in the song is probably my favourite all-time Smith solos. The notes, bends, etc. is just so perfect. Its one of those "I wish I wrote that" solos!
Totally agree. I made a similar comment here amongst the 32,000 comments so far! Very nicely said, by the way!!
Escucha the Time machine y verás que Adrián hace un solo muy bueno
Indeed. This one and Stranger in a Stranger Land are just epic. They made history with those solos.
@@rodoherty1 Thanks!
To absolutnie najlepszy teledysk jaki widziałem
Iron Maiden still rocks all these years. I wish they could have bumped up Bruce Dickinson's voice in the mix a tad.
Listen to it on spotify. 100 times.better. Bruce is clear
@@mitchcugnet9 indeed 👍
Adrian, you are welcome at home here, in Quebec As Soon As Possible. VIVE MAIDEN
Yeah. It's better on Spotify, but still a bit low.
ITunes i also alot betterm
I have no words. True to style despite time, without losing their identity. Its Iron Maiden beeing a gratest and finest Iron Maiden trough time. BEST BAND Of THE WORLD. 🤟🤟🤟🇺🇾
🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷
🇺🇾💪
UP THE IRONS! 🙏✌️🤘🤘
Literally sitting here preparing lesson notes for a College Bible Study on Daniel when this pops up. Maiden's biblical theology is better than many church's. Killer song, keep it coming!
Their theology is better than Metallica's
And fitting for the times
Same ,
Then why do you go there?
@@PaperSpeakersWat "many", not "all" 🤔
Does anyone else feel like this video should have been part of the 1980's animated cult classic "Heavy Metal"??? It seriously emanates that kind of vibe; Not to mention, it's just a badass song! 🤘🤘🤘
40 years after and Mainden does it again. That's why there will never be a second band remotely close to this!!! Absolute LEGENDS. Can't wait to see you back in NYC 😎
46 years. They started in 1975.
Rush never had Blaze Bailey ruin their band even for a single album...let alone 2.
Great Song and great Band. One of my personal favorites are helloween who just have released a fantastic new album in reunion with kai hansen (godfather of power metal) and michael kiske (for me the best metal singer from back in the days until now) ... check out the videos from skyfall and fear of the fallen 🤓🤘🏻
@@bottishg Can't wait to see them live again.
Loved it… Maiden Forever🤘🏻❗️
You are the best🤘🤘🤘
Cover incoming? 😉
I can't wait for the cover, this day i literally watched all his Maiden covers once again, im learning Alexander the Great and his video is helping me a lot with the techniques and a lot of other things, i remember watching his cover of the song in 2013/2014 and now im learning it, it's like dream coming true really!🤘🤘🤘
Hoorahh
I can just see Samurai Eddie and Dystopia Vic Rattlehead throwing Metallica stars and shooting flamethrowers from a Pantera tank. With Slayer blood raining. Someone please make that a video. 😄🤘🏻
I remember Steve Harris saying that Bruce even at 80% is better than most singers out there and he was spot on. Never gonna be the same Bruce from the 80's but even now after 40 odd years of touring still a force to be reckoned with, and the slightly lower register works. Works for me anyway, I managed to sing along to this one in my car without rupturing 20 blood vessels in each eye, and without shiting myself......bonus!
Don't forget about the throat cancer Bruce had either. Dickenson is a MadMan!!
Indeed, my friend. But for me, the best Bruce's time is 90's.
With you saying "80%" I just imagined Bruce having anime style pep talk and then just going all-out with his voice
@@jomamma1750 he's an IronMaidman!
haha
I've been watching every single scene of this pure masterpiece by holding my breath. Magnificent 🌟
That solo brought me back into the 80’s, and not in a ‘oh they’re trying and it kinda sounds like the 80’s’ kind of way, but a ‘Wow, it’s actually the 80’s again’ kind of way.
Your avatar is as old as me and I can agree with u 100%
@@Alfamoto8 I actually never thought about that, lol. I’m going to change it soon.
Ritchie Blackmore ?!
Agreed, it sounds like it's from the era of Piece of Mind or Powerslave. I have hopes for Senjutsu; this is only just a taste of it, so I wonder how the others will sound. Lost in a Lost World might be interesting, and the title is almost like Stranger in a Strange Land from Somewhere in Time, my favorite album.
its got a touch of synth, i'm sure Bruce loves that... lol. Seventh Son is one of my favourites.
The message of this song rings true in these troubled times. Only a platoon of Eddies can save us and show us the way... Here's to many more years gentlemen. Up The Irons!
Too late now. January 6th was the date. Now they got all their systems locked in 100%. Get ready for Bio weapon attacks on the reg
@@calio99 naw, the masses of everyday people in the world can still throw off their chains, but the poor and more stable poor (the middle class) just need to see the real enemies, which is not each other… “They got the guns, but we got the numbers”, and Jim Morrison might have sung that with a snarl, being much more hippy than yippie, but the sentiment still rings true (and yeah, in America a lot of working and middle class have guns, but they also seem to be confused who’s face should be painted on their practice targets).
Is it a long shot for humanity to get the W? Yup, and it’s hard not to be blackpilled given the darkness of the times, but the reality is that the status quo quite literally cannot continue, because our planet’s ecology cannot sustain this level of extraction and pollution, let alone an increase.. Look, right wing, left wing, chicken wing: everyday people are going to have to get over differing cultural affinities, turn off Fox, CNN, OAN, MSNBC, etc, stop listening to the dividing and divisive propaganda, and start thinking about what is in the actual material interest of our children, and their children’s children, 7th child of the 7th, etc… The notion that cultural difference between urban and rural everyday people should erase their material interests is absurd, and a dangerous lie that has, along with a lot of other propaganda meant to divide, been the reason things have been able to get so bad.
Sorry, I know that’s a lot, and I don’t wanna talk politics in Iron Maiden comment sections, but this is obviously a political video, and well, this thread and your comment specifically invited it, especially since you went full doomer, so I felt I had to try and pull you back from the edge. I’ve a feeling we probably have very different politics, but again that’s probably largely a matter of media consumption and differing cultural affinities, and it in no way, shape or form erases our shared material interests, and those of our future progeny. Defeating the enemy of this planet, of humanity and basically all life, isn’t going to be easy, but the window hasn’t closed on opportunity, and again, this planet cannot and will not sustain the status quo, so there WILL be a great reckoning, the question is will everyday people, the working classes of the planet, join hands and work together to save it, or will a boot smash our faces into the dirt, forever. (Or at least until the sun expands and vaporizes this planet once and for all.)
@@calio99 January 6th was a bunch of "small business" people being upset about being lumped in with the lower class and pretending they know how to protest, or what it takes to topple a government. They don't want to throw off the chains, they want to hold the reigns.
@@edtExodus are you talking about small businesses being the individual? That ur social Security number is nothing but ur slave identification? Rich democommies like Bezos, tim apple , jaime diamond, George Soros, suckerberg, and all the other big demonrat corporate zombies got u thinking it's the Christian s holding u down, lol. I would agree. And now that 10 trillion dollars have gotten stolen in the last 2 years, you're going to be paying 85% total taxation soon. but look on the bright side. Why does the USA with not even being in the top three most populous countries have the most death and cases? It's because you're under attack and screwed. And for all you fakos who want to challenge me.....India doesn't have lockdowns.
@@calio99 Bezos is the very epitome of liberal economics. That you'd call him a "commie" really speaks volumes about how well you grasp the problem. You think the big money behind the other party is any better? Two "sides" barely even fighting each other over who gets to come first in fucking the lower class over, and one of them still has you licking their boot.
Maiden and other bands like this have changed my life, I’ve lost a leg and escaped death twice, everytime I get down about that shit I throw some maiden on and headbang it out my system. Sincerest love and respect, up the iron!!!! 🙏🏻🙌🏻🏴🔊
Hang in there Bud!
DONT MISS DEM KINDA MOMENTS,THEMS MAKE ME FEEL ALIVE!! UP UP UP THE IRON MY BROTHER MAN!!! RRAAHHH!!!
Maiden and AC/DC are the 2 bands who have got me through so much in my life
Much respect! Maiden became my fav band in 1986 at age 13...still a huge fan and the band has been a major force in my life.
Much respect brother. You are a Warrior.
My second ever Iron Maiden concert was on 2022. Curtiba, Brazil. I spent the whole day prior listening to the Senjutsu album so I would be prepared. Holy crap, I remember when they played this one. It was glorious. Actual chills went down as we all sang along and as Bruce encouraged us too finish the sentence “Can you see… THE WRITING ON THE WALL!”. It was glorious.
this is a masterpiece....From the lyrics and composition, to the animation itself - it's truly a masterpiece.
I love how the animation combines aesthetic natures from the 80s and 90s with modern animation techniques. I haven't really been keeping up with bands like I should, but it makes me happy to see Iron maiden still gifting us with their music.
