Following the great news that vocalist Bruce Dickinson has the all clear – Metal legends Iron Maiden have revealed their long-awaited 16th album ‘The Book Of Souls’
Iconic Maiden bass player, Steve Harris had this to say:
We approached this album in a different way to how we’ve recorded previously. A lot of the songs were actually written while we were there in the studio and we rehearsed and recorded them straight away while they were still fresh, and I think that immediacy really shows in the songs, they have almost a live feel to them I think. I’m very proud of The Book Of Souls, we all are, and we can’t wait for our fans to hear it, and especially to take it out on the road next year!”
