Sep 3, 2021Best reunion-era album. Mix of classic maiden tropes and new ideas with amazing lyrics and dramatic power
-
Sep 3, 2021Excellent album!!!! Especially last 3 Harris songs. Can't wait to see them live.
-
Sep 3, 2021This album is high quality Iron maiden work. Stands in a row with their all albums. Such songs as Hell on earth, Stratego, The writing on the wall, senjutsu and lost in the lost world seem for me as masterpieces. Most importantly, they experiment and develop their style and sound. and this is not just a new album of my favourite band - it is a new breath and inspiration in their music

Sep 4, 2021Masterpiece Their best work! Awesome Awesome Awesome!!! For a band that's been out for 40 years this album is amazing!
-
Sep 3, 2021I really enjoyed the new album listening to it all at once. This band never disappoints me and the new sounds mixed with the classic ones are a big yes for me. Another great work from them!
-
Sep 4, 2021Probably my favourite (won't say "best") album after the 7 originals (well, you can't top these giants no matter what)
It is a complete, amazing and powerful album! I just can't stop listening to "The Parchment" and "Darkest Hour".
Awesome work as always, guys! UP THE IRONS m/ -

Sep 3, 2021esse álbum é uma obra prima, com o sempre kenye um gênio. Críticos brancos jamais entenderiam.

Sep 7, 2021This is quite possibly some of the best Iron Maiden work to date. The musicianship is next level, song construction very solid and a varying number of musical offers. They've stayed true to their sound and you can always count on Steve and Nicko working together in perfect synchronicity. An album for the ages and well justified rave reviews from the mainstream music press.

Sep 4, 2021I did not expect their 17th studio album to be this good to be honest. I really enjoyed their new music.

Sep 6, 2021I just listened the whole album and I can say easily that the old guys are still in fit. Especially voice of Bruce is still reminding me his prime. With all my respect, It's a wonderful album.

Sep 14, 2021Can’t say the album grabbed me entirely on the first listen… but setting down and really getting into the second go around I realized just how really damn good it is. Easily their best since BNW. Book of Souls was really good but this flys right past that. Definitely a new classic
-
Sep 10, 2021Iron Maiden is still kicking ass with their albums. This is a great track and can't wait to see its tour. Some really strong entries in there include:
Shenjitsu
Stratego
The Writing on the Wall
Days of Future Past -
Sep 5, 2021Iron Maiden's new album, despite the songs being very long, is an album that deserves respect as the band showed their willingness to innovate without fear of long-lived criticism of Iron Maiden.
-
Sep 4, 2021Outstanding work. One of the best maiden albums of all time. Up the irons!!!
-
Sep 8, 2021For those who are looking for sound from first albums…forget about this new one…but who expects irons being the same after over 40 years on stage? For all the others, this is a new amazing work I really recommend to listen through!!!
-
Sep 6, 2021Senjutsu is a prime example of why Iron Maiden are still highly regarded after 40 years. Dickinson's voice is smooth and powerful, Harris' lyrics are as poignant as ever, and the triple guitar attack of Smith, Murray, and Gers absolutely shreds especially on the song "The Parchment" which showcases the three with nearly 6 minutes of solos.

Nov 4, 2021Probably the best metal band ever and another great work.
If you have never tasted the epicness of Iron Maiden you can taste it with this new album. Yes, does not have the impact of some of their older epics, because Iron Maiden isnt new, their epic status is not a secret. -

Sep 7, 2021Absolutely amazing album. The songwriting is as strong as ever. The performances are stellar and Bruce sounds great also. Definitely impressed with this, more balanced than Book of Souls.

Oct 23, 2021From a hardcore iron maiden fan, absolutely overrated and overhyped, not good music in the slightest, songs are forced in every way and unoriginal, sounds like they have just used samples from 17 albums and mashed into 1 album, songs are long just for the sake of being long and don’t even go anywhere, very very dissatisfied
-
Mar 20, 2022Bu şeyi dinlerken hazzın doruklarına ulaşıyorum inanılmaz bir albüm her zaman her yerde dinleyebilirim
-
Jul 26, 2022Безупречный альбом, я довольно долго слушаю эту группу, поэтому для меня было заметно, что он довольно отличается от классики iron maiden
-
Jul 27, 2022Esse álbum é perfeito para qualquer ocasião, é tão divino que ao escutar em fones de ouvido eu me sinto em outro mundo.

MojoSep 22, 2021Never sounds less than game. [Nov 2021, p.87]
-
Sep 7, 2021Senjutsu is Iron Maiden’s strongest offering in some time, looking forward whilst occasionally peering back over its shoulder. In tone it’s the band’s darkest album, but the sheer coherence and confidence of the playing, writing and production makes it feel filled with light and positivity. There’s conflict all over the album, but this is the sound of a band firing on all cylinders.
-
Sep 7, 2021The epic Senjutsu is another distended late-career triumph, albeit one that requires multiple spins to set up camp in your Homeric metal-craving cranium.
