This arrived about an hour ago, because I was impatient, I've already had a leaked copy for a week, so I'm already loving it, but listening to the proper CD version has made me enjoy it even more. There's nothing really new about it, its Maiden after all, but there's enough material here (92 minutes worth) to keep fans, old and new happy.
And, there's Bruce Dickinson playing grand piano for the first time to close the album with Empire of the Clouds!

Highlights for me are the epic title track (which I've learnt to play, apart from the solo's), Tears of a Clown (written about the late Robin Williams) and the above mentioned closing track-Empire of the Clouds, showcasing Bruce's hidden skills on the piano.
