Iron Maiden - who are currently performing on their 'Give Me Ed...Til I'm Dead' tour - spent last year working on the album, once again teaming up with Kevin Shirley. "In the Zeppelin tradition of 'Tight But Loose', this is a band which moves - pushing the beat, pulling it back, and that's real rock," said Shirley. "No click tracks, no ProTools computer tightening and manipulation - what you hear is what they play. I'm just saying it like it is, and Maiden are the last and the best of the naturally moving rock bands." "Recording this album was almost like being back when 'Number Of The Beast' was recorded," said Dickinson. "The speed and the energy that went into the writing and recording was phenomenal. Everything has come together on this album. This album will open a lot of eyes and ears to the world or Iron Maiden." The band have yet to confirm touring plans but it's believed that they include major dates in the UK, Europe, North and South America and the Far East. The full tracklisting: 1. Wildest Dreams 2. Rainmaker 3. No More Lies 4. Montsegur 5. Dance Of Death 6. Gates Of Tomorrow 7. New Frontier 8. Paschendale 9. Face in The Sand 10. Age Of Innocence 11. Journeyman
