Description: Currently in their fifth decade as recording and touring artists, British hard rock and heavy metal legends Iron Maiden rose to prominence in the 1980s, battled their way through the challenging 1990s, and returned to global mega-success in the 2000s and beyond. This book charts their incredible journey, album by album and song by song, from debut album Iron Maiden (1980), via world-beating classics like The Number of the Beast (1982) and Seventh Son of a Seventh Son (1988), through the resurgence of Brave New World (2000), all the way to their latest masterpiece Senjutsu (2021). Every period of the band's history is discussed in terms of song writing, recording, evolving band line-ups and the changing times and styles. A superstar band in the 1980s and then written off as yesterday's news in the 1990s, Iron Maiden have endured to become one of the greatest and most highly respected hard rock and heavy metal groups of all time.
