Iron Maiden Bounce Back!

Review Score: (8/10)
At the time of this album's release, it was the first album Iron Maiden had recorded with Bruce Dickinson in 7 years. They show they can still rock as hard as anything. I rated this 4 stars instead of 5, because Thin Line Between Love And Hate is very weak. But other than that, this is one of Maiden's best. I love the progressive, yet straightfoward sound. Many other reviewers say this is an alternative album. I just don't understand how they got that idea. It doesn't sound one bit like alternative. Apparently they didn't really listen to this album. This recording is essential to any headbanger who wants to hear their favorite bands still rocking strong.
