Iron Maiden Somewhere In Time Full Album Torrent
Per tutta la durata degli anni ottanta gli Iron Maiden trovarono il maggior successo commerciale grazie ad album Piece of Mind, Powerslave, Somewhere in Time, Seventh Son of a Seventh Son, certificati dischi d'oro e di platino in numerosi Paesi.
Fresh off of the success of 1984’s ‘Powerslave’ and the 1985 live album ‘Live After Death’, Iron Maiden were well and firmly at the top of the metal world, and their run of strong releases would continue with ‘Somewhere in Time’, an album which saw the band continue to enter progressive territory with their writing, with longer songs and the addition of keyboards. However, stylistically this is still very much Iron Maiden.
By this point the band have clearly defined their sound, and there’s not much point in tweaking what already works. With blistering guitar harmonies and wailing vocals, Maiden have clearly hit their stride by this point in their career. The use of keyboards adds an atmospheric, spacey feeling to the music, giving ‘Somewhere in Time’ its own identity amongst the bands discography. With a solid production and some of guitarists Adrian Smith and Dave Murray’s finest guitar tones, the sound here is timeless. Even after all these years, the album holds up well for both its sense of melody and its metal edge. The lyrics are a lot more introspective than previously, a sign of the bands world-travelled weariness after their constant touring.
But it also makes for some of their most sincere and personal songs, particularly in ‘Wasted Years’. With highlights including the aforementioned ‘Wasted Years’, ‘Stranger in a Strange Land’, ‘Caught Somewhere in Time’, ‘Deja-Vu’ and ‘Heaven Can Wait’, there’s an abundance of quality material here, making ‘Somewhere in Time’ another in a string of classic albums.
Another MASTERPIECE of heavy metal 80's, the indisputable and immortal CLASSIC of metal music of all time. In my Iron Maiden hit parade, this album is occupies the 3rd place, the first two places are 'Number of the Beast' and 'The Seventh Son' - unattainable peaks. In this album, I would like to mention such songs as 'Caught Somewhere In Time', 'Loneliness.' And of course - the epic hymn 'Alexander the Great', maybe really not the strongest in terms of lyrics, but unmatched musically. I have nothing more to add, all the real metalheads have heard this album for a long time.
Founded in Leyton in London's East End in 1975, Iron Maiden released their first album in 1980 as a five-piece with on vocals. Would replace him in 1981. With several line-up changes would remain the only original member never to have had a hiatus. When quit in 1994 and was replaced by 's, the band lost a lot of their fanbase. They recorded two albums with Blaze before and returned to the fold for 2000's 'Brave New World', and 2003's 'Dance of Death', making them a six-piece.
As of 1999 the line-up hasn't changed Band Members: Vocals (1975-1976) (1976-1977) (1978-1981) (1994-1998) (1981-1993 and 1999-present) Drums Barry ' Purkis (1977) (1977-1979) (1980-1982) (1982-present) Guitar (1976-present) (1979-1980) (1980-1990 and 1999-present) (1990-present) Bass (1975-present) Keyboards (1986-present) (Live performances only, not a full member). With or without singer Bruce Dickinson, Iron Maiden have continued their heavy metal assault for the past twenty years -- brave soldiers for the Euro-Metal they fashioned from the New Wave of British Heavy Metal. Rhythmic velocity, intense, wailing dual lead guitars, and vocals that soared in concert with the epic imagery of the lyrics made them the lords of Metal throughout the '80s. Weathering the '90s with several lineup changes, Maiden have come full circle (well, sort of) with the 1999 return of Dickinson.Looks as if their fierce signature sound will charge into the new millennium.
