Review: A truly underrated classic - I remember when this first came out. I heard The Angel and The Gambler single and was ready to disown the band entirely. I thought to myself the album better be good or else. That song to this day is the only weak track on the album. Filler material at it's finest. As soon as the album came out I put the CD in and was unsure of what was to come through that single. Off it went and Futureal kicked in. I was thinking now THIS is more like it. It came to be that it was a solid album after all. A little bit better than The X Factor. Less gloomy and a little more upbeat. The X Factor is still a good album though. I just think this is out in front. Blaze is a different singer to Bruce. He has a more soulful approach to the vocals. He still has that to this day. Unlike Bruce who's vocals are worse for wear. Anything Iron Maiden has done from their debut up to and including Brave New World is a solid effort. Anything after that is Dad Rock borderline Hard Rock with strained vocals. Blaze deserves more credit than he gets.
Review: I Am The Clansman.... FREEDOM! - This is the first out of the two Blaze albums I've heard and I must say I'm massively impressed, Blaze's vocals add somethin different to Maiden that works. Many Maiden fans knock this Era as Bruce isn't on Vocals (Foolish as are the Fans of Priest that knock Ripper & Sabbath fans that knock Tony Martin) what you have here is Classic Maiden riffs with a New touch in some parts Blaze sounds like Bruce and yes Bruce's Vocals can get higher than Blaze's but the Music that Blaze & Co. Created is awesome "Futureal" is an Instant Maiden classic short n Sweet. I agree with many people about "The Angel & The Gambler" GOD....its repetitive and will cause you to fall asleep.... Trust me. However the album picks up with "Lighting Strikes Twice" then another Maiden Classic emerges "The Clansman" Harris's Riffs and Blaze's Vocals do this song justice its one of my favs, "When Two Worlds Collide" is another brill track, "Educated Fool" haven't decided if I like or not, "Don't look at the eyes of a Stranger" is another great track and the album finishes with the Awesome "Como Estais Amigos" a soft song that shows Blaze's softer Ballad voice...Overall this is an Maiden album to buy as long as you don't compare as obviously its not going to sound like previous albums!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Don't be put off by Blaze
*by A***X on 25 July 2012*

I own every Iron Maiden studio album other than The X Factor and, until now, Virtual XI. I have deliberately avoided these two, as they were released during the time that the usual singer, Bruce Dickinson, left the band to pursue a solo career. They replaced him with Wolfsbane singer Blaze Bayley, who is regarded by most IM fans as a sub-par vocalist. I was one of those fans until recently. I decided to give this a chance, and actually Blaze is fantastic. The only problem is that everyone keeps comparing him to Bruce. He is not Bruce, and if you compare Blaze to anyone else you will see his vocal style really fits with Iron Maiden. Even if you still don't like his voice, it's still got the rest of the Iron Maiden lads (minus Adrian Smith), so you can still tell it's them. We have a lot to thank Blaze for anyway; Bruce left the band and made some great albums himself, and if Blaze hadn't been so unpopular, we might never have got Mr Dickinson back! Overall, a great album until you compare it to other Iron Maiden albums. But who cares? It's still IM, and therefore still one of the greatest albums of all time.
