For this week only, Maiden Voyagers becomes... Dickinson's Voyagers? Dickinson's Detours?

We couldn't decide on a name.

But ahead of delving in to Iron Maiden's 'No Prayer For The Dying', Bledd and Sam take a moment to analyse frontman Bruce Dickinson's first solo effort. Marking a stylistic departure of sorts for Dickinson and introducing guitarist Janick Gers, it certainly lays the groundwork for Maiden's next release.

In a slight departure from our scheduled program, Bledd and Sam take the opportunity to reflect on Iron Maiden's Future Past Tour (again) now that it's wrapped-up (and they actually attended a show). Join them for a tale of Dixie Chicken and Utilita Arena. 

Just as a small disclaimer, this episode was recorded before Nicko went public with his health issues. We discuss some of his playing, but obviously that vital context is missing so do please keep that in mind. Wishing Nicko all the best in his recovery - what a beast!

In our second part of Seventh Son of a Seventh Son, Bledd and Sam spend far too much time analysing one of Iron Maiden's most renowned albums. But does it live up to the hype?

I mean, yes. Obvs. But still, let's talk about why it's so good.

Only a week later than originally billed, Sam and Bledd dive in to Maiden's proggiest album to date - Seventh Son of A Seventh Son. Is it actually that proggy? Is it even a concept album? Who knows - the only thing we're sure of is there'll be synths galore.

With the Maiden lads having kicked off The Future Past Tour, Bledd and Sam take a break from their usual album analysis to mark the occasion instead.

Instead, join us as we put together our dream Maiden gigs, covering everything from set-lists to just how many pyro displays go off.

On this week's ep, Sam and Blev continue to get in to the weeds on Maiden's ode to guitar-synths, 'Somewhere In Time', and lavish praise on Adrian smith.

This week, Blev and Sam kick off their discussion on one of Maiden's oddly less talked about albums. Join them as they delve in to a world replete with Adrian Smith's songwriting and guitar synths.

On this week's edition, Blev and Sam get in to the weeds of the songs on Powerslave and ask the big questions, like does an album really need two songs about sword-fighting? (Spoiler: no)

Alright, now we're getting to the good stuff. Back to the albums proper. This week, Blev and Sam delve in to the background behind one of Maiden's most iconic albums, Powerslave.

After an *ahem* extended break, your Maiden Voyagers are back. Join Blev and Sam as they catch up on all things Maiden, lay out a couple of plans and just generally dust off a few cobwebs before getting started on the next slate of albums.
