It won’t be long before Iron Maiden are breaking records. This concert recorded in 2019 in Mexico is their 11th official live album! It’s even become their trademark: each time the band go on tour they create an aural or visual record. Do we need yet another Iron Maiden live album? It’s a good question, since this record is – like many before it – pretty much a best-of album. And the answer is yes. Nights of the Dead, Legacy of the Beast is fully justified for at least two reasons. Firstly, the tour that’s documented here came at a time when Bruce Dickinson was struggling with health problems and it seemed important for the band to prove to their fans that throat cancer hasn’t affected his legendary voice. Secondly, it’s no secret that the tour was a huge success, both in terms of scenography and their musical performances. Fans probably would have liked a visual supplement but still, the sound is nothing short of amazing. Iron Maiden revisits an artistically-flawless period of their career and performs it with unparalleled drive, feeling and technicality – something that no one else on the metal scene today would be able to keep up after a forty-year career. Dickinson even cheekily covers The Clansman and The Sign Of The Cross, originally sung in the studio by Blaze Bayley during his short interim period (1994 to 1999). Likewise, the rarer tracks For the Greater Good of God, Where Eagles Dare and Revelations give added value to a setlist that obviously gives pride of place to the unmissable hits: Aces High, The Trooper, The Number of the Beast, Run To The Hills, 2 Minutes To Midnight... We find heavy metal cornerstones that are played with that same unstoppable anger from their beginnings. As if we needed reminding, this new live show once again confirms the English giant’s supremacy and reinforces the huge respect they deserve for their incredible and exemplary trajectory. © Charlélie Arnaud/Qobuz
