IRON MAIDEN still Rock after giving up on buying their cds after somewhere in time thinking they were losing their way (sorry just couldnt get past live after death still one of the best live albums i've ever heard rating No 2 would b W.A.S.P live in the raw) This album is modern but they have returned to their roots, hope they not so ova the hill to to a world tour coz with songs like these it got the makings to rival live after death.

Without a doubt the best Maiden album since Seventh Son. Every song rocks and the song writing shows that they put a lot of effort into this disc. For me, this will be a hard release to top.

I've been pretty vocal in my preference Maiden's 1980-84 golden era of shorter, sharper songs with a few scattered epics, rather than the 21st-century inversion in which overlong compositions dominate. That's why I didn't give A Matter Of Life And Death a fair listen when it came out. Turns out it's one of their best latter-day releases. Yes, the songs are long, but they're also catchy without being repetitive and simplistic like some of the songs on the previous two albums were. This is also the baand's heaviest album, though heaviness is a relative thing anymore. And the 72-minute runtime feels almost reasonable compared to The Book Of Souls and Senjutsu. Highlights include pretty much all of the first half, plus "For The greater Good Of God." "Benjamin Breeg" maybe wasn't the best choice for a first single, though, which may have been another reason I wasn't into the album at the time.
