If you hold a mirror up to society you can see the image, the sheer ugliness of the truth reflected back; if 2018 will be remembered in cinematic terms for two things, then the age of the superhero truly caught the public’s imagination in the excellent Black Panther, and the absolute truth played out in The First Purge.

Iron Maiden, Dance Of Death, 10th Anniversary Retrospective.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * *

Dance of Death, as album titles go, it’s a fair one to place on an album cover especially by arguably the U.K.’s leading Heavy Metal band enjoying a new renaissance with Adrian Smith and lead vocalist Bruce Dickinson back within the helm. It conjurors up thoughts of a last waltz, which thankfully will be suspended for as long as possible, of a macabre game with the Grim Reaper, or in this case the band’s long time mascot Eddie doing a plausible impression of the figure in black as if taken from a gruesome version of the film The Seventh Seal, as Death itself holds out its hand and asks you to join together.

Steve Harris, British Lion. Album Review.

L.S. Media rating ***

British Lion, two words that pretty much sum up Iron Maiden’s founder member and bass player Steve Harris. The writer of a plethora of songs from the British heavy kings has cemented Steve Harris as one of the godfathers of Heavy Metal and quite rightly so.

Now 22 years after his Iron Maiden band mate Bruce Dickinson released his debut album Tattooed Millionaire, Steve Harris has joined forces with Richard Taylor, David Hawkins, Grahame Leslie and Simon Dawson to produce an album that, might not roar like the beast it is represented by but also certainly doesn’t mew like a frightened kitten.
