Jon team up with Matt Backlas to talk about dreams (good and bad, loud and silent) american radio qualities, futuristic classic rock, well hidden top 10 maiden-riffs. drowning versus parachutless sky-diving, (good) short stories and off-putting GPS voices over TikTok-reels.

But. primarily still, the lads talk about this lil' jewel on the PoM b-side, and will continue to do so in part 2 within the near future.

We always want to hear from you lovely people! Drop us a line on Instagram, Twitter, or shoot us an e-mail. We are maidenazpod pretty much everywhere. Be sure to join our group on Facebook - Maiden A-Z: Friends of The Beast!

Once again, we set out towards space: The Final Frontier, orbiting distant stars.

Here we stand, brothers in pods.

What a track! Let's waste no time writing or reading show notes, just dive in!

We slip into 2025!

By popular demand, we return with a more positive re-make of our latest episode, Shadows of the Valley.

ONE MAN.

ONE DESIRE.

A slight scramble in the alphabetic order occurs as four saintly shrouded men look for the sign of the X...mass. We've been looking forward to this monolith of a track. Arkö (with a red Yamaha Attitude) and Lacayo help us do this right.

We all know that one hell of an album, namely Powerslave, turned 40 this year. We've been asked if we will throw some type of party for it. However, the thing is, we already kind of did, with the lengthy Rime-series, especially part 5 in which we celebrated Powerslave, as a whole. However, another album turned 40 this year and provided us a perfect oppurtunity for our first Danish guest appearance. Please, welcome Jens Nicolai Gräs from the band IOTUNN.

Prepare for a MERCYFUL FATE. But, whatever you do, DON'T BREAK THE OATH.

We catch up with Dan Mortimer and sharpen our steel.

At any rate, before we can walk the earth,
