Every Mastered for iTunes album I've bought sounds phenomenal. I mean very, very good and I can be quite anal about these things.

A proper remaster is great. I just hate the iTune (or any platform's really) exclusivity bit because every time somebody pulls this off (it's true for music but also video games) I feel coerced.

Their only weakness is maybe writing too many songs about the Manga/anime Berserk.

To be fair, Berserk is really fuckin' metal.

Is there a way I buy get the remastered Maiden albums without iTunes? I'd prefer FLAC with no DRM.

I'm thrilled that it's apparently one of few remasters that has a full dynamic range.

If you're worried about spending too much money just buy the best ones. Which ones those are is up to personal taste and I know het would be disappointed in me if I started a pissing contest about why killers was the best album.

The Odyssey has a special place in my heart and Paradise Lost was one of my favorites from '07, but I'm with you that Iconoclast was lackluster. I totally forgot that album existed, it's not even on Spotify for some reason. Here's hoping this one is a step up.

Most underrated track is Total Eclipse. People call it filler but it actually rocks as much as the rest of Number Of The Beast.

Berserk is basically the most metal thing ever, though. I don't see how it's possible to write too many songs about it.

Yes.
The first single (Battle's Won) is a pretty cool song, but this and the other one released since don't really do anything for me.
I keep hoping against hope that Helloween would still one day make at least one more good album, but I guess I really shouldn't.

Doom was so metal that dozens of different metal bands released its soundtrack in pieces years or decades before it came out. All praise the Prophet, Bobby Prince, who sent his music back in time!

I'm so loving bummed that Sodom couldn't make it to MDF this year...

I was so excited to hear the german national anthem played as a solo.

Still though, geeked to fly into Baltimore and start my 5 days of alcohol abuse and see all the other bands.

I know the goto would be to assume that I don't like hip hop but I actually loving love it, I just think seeing those three bands in a row is a significantly more attractive option than seeing Mobb Deep in 2015. But I'm just one dude! Have a killer time.

I really really don't care about stoner/doom generally so yeah I'll take brutal death metal followed by Mobb Deep over that any day. I mean, nothing against it, it's just not my cup of tea and ridiculous slam metal is pretty fun live
