The Book Of Souls

Iron Maiden

Stretching over 90 minutes, this collection includes an 18-minute track, the group's longest recorded effort. The project reflects a clear ambition to incorporate complex, progressive storytelling into their established heavy metal framework.

Recorded in Paris with Kevin Shirley, the sessions maintain a live-in-the-studio intensity. The mix highlights the constant engagement between the three-guitar lineup and the vocal performance, marking a significant return for the band after five years.
