    This review contains spoilers, click full review link to view. The best songs for me are in this order: "Hell on earth" (it reminds me a lot of "When the wild wind blows" in terms of atmosphere, the first time I heard it I said "this is a spectacular song")
    "The Parchment" which is full of very Maidean instrumental parts, a typical Harris epic song and "Lost in a lost world" which is another Harris masterpiece, with a touch of reminiscence of A Matter of Life and Death album. Maybe I could rank it as the best Maiden album of this century.

    Best reunion-era album. Mix of classic maiden tropes and new ideas with amazing lyrics and dramatic power
