    For years I ignored the X Factor and Virtual XI albums just because they didn’t feature Bruce Dickinson, then I sampled some songs from the X Factor online and decided to buy the cd’s of both albums Blaze sang on and I love them both. I’ve since been collecting Blaze Bayley cd’s and eagerly await the arrival of Circle of Stone which I have on order. I’ve heard most of the songs on it already and love them. Thanks for this great video!🤘🏻😈

      They have a couple of great tracks. But some of them are horrible mostly because of Blaze singing out of tune.
      He really shines in his deeper register. The high notes.. not so much.

    Hearing the health scare Blaze Bayley suffered last year, it is so great to hear him cranking out a really good album. I also like the new Bruce Dickinson album too. It’s hard to pick which one I like better because they both are really good albums. It’s been a great year in music so far and we are barely into March.

    I like Blaze and Bruce solo stuff, I like all Maiden eras. Both Blaze and Bruce new albums are great. By the way, The X Factor is one of my favorite Maiden's albums.

    Good review Brendon. A strong follow up to the exceptional album that came before it. Blaze and the lads continue their fine form here. It's probably my most listened to album this year so far. I've been a fan of Blaze since I got a copy of Best of the beast twenty odd years ago.

    Amazing album I love it I'm a big Iron Maiden fan for many years , so Blaze makes two great albums with band back in the days , I believe a lot of Maiden fans like it , and follow Blaze solo career.

      I think his albums with the band are seen in a far better light today than they were upon original release. Glad he is still able to go out and play to the fan base.

      Blaze is so underrated. His albums are killer slabs of Maiden style music. He really should have a bigger fan base than he does.

  • @patriotpizzaman
    @patriotpizzaman Před 4 měsíci +2

    I do think Blaze's album is more Metal than Bruce's project. The songs are energetic bordering on frenetic at times and just when they get to the edge he pulls out a balad to cool things down a little. Great sequencing on side "A". The second side is good, especially the guitarists. The biggest drawback on the album IMO is the vocals. Blaze performs well. Maybe among his best vocals ever. I'm not a big fan of his voice though. He has a lower, "bassier" voice.He does sing very well with it but, it does distract me a bit. I've been trying to get used to Blaze's voice for a number of years. I can listen to him now (that's major progress over the Maiden days) but, it's not really clicking with me in a way that could move him up into my regular rotation of artists. I guess my go to bands and artists are a tough group to crack into. This album is worthy of all the praise it's recieving. Musically exciting and full of twists and turns. It may be a bit derivative but, it's very well done.

      Not a fan of Blaze's voice either, in fact one of the worst shows I've ever seen was when he was in Maiden.

    Released the same day as Bruce's new one... Coincidence? Hmm... Haven't heard this yet to be fair so will reserve judgement...

    • @BrendonSnyder
      @BrendonSnyder  Před 4 měsíci +1

      The added promotion of each one can only help both artists. I don’t think Bruce needed the help but Blaze could use some added attention so it was brilliant on his part to release it on the same day.

    There’s one track that I’d skip but good album, 7.5/10. His voice is a bit too upfront for me in the mix. C’mon Blaze, let us hear the instruments too.

    • @BrendonSnyder

    Как был он без голоса так и остался, совершенно не интересный альбом такой простенький хэви металльчик для подростков, все песни одинаковые! До Брюса Дикинсона ему далеко ! Очередной проходной альбом,я его даже на болванку CD-R записывать не буду!
