Description
The Final Frontier [Deluxe Edition] inlcudes:
The band reunited with long-time Maiden producer Kevin “Caveman” Shirley in early 2010 at Compass Point Studios, Nassau to record the album and then moved to LA to finish the recording and do the mixing. Compass Point Studio is very familiar to the band, it was where they recorded the Piece Of Mind (’83), Powerslave (’84) and Somewhere In Time (’86) albums.
Bruce comments: “The studio had the same vibe and it was EXACTLY as it had been in 1983, NOTHING had changed! Even down to the broken shutter in the corner…same carpet….everything… It was really quite spooky. But we felt very relaxed in such a familiar and well-trodden environment and I think this shows in the playing and the atmosphere of the album”
Thirty years on from their eponymous debut album in April 1980, The Final Frontier will be Maiden’s 15th studio album, making a remarkable average of a new album every two years for 30 years and totalling over 80 million album sales during this period.
- Unique Limited Edition Collectors ‘Mission Edition’ CD metal case

Again Iron Maiden have produced a album of sheer awesomeness.
The sound differs from previous album, but still the brillance that is Bruce, Steve, Dave, Janick, Adrian and Nicko blasts through your speakers at 1000m/ph.
Decades of total mind blowing lyrics and musical genius has come together to create this gem.
I hope they bring another tour down our way so they can belt out some of these new songs along with their other classics.
