Iron Maiden - The Book of Souls (Sanctuary Records)
...And finally we arrive in the best album of 2015, and contrary to most albums presented in this list is from a band that is anything but unknown. But then, this list is not just great albums that you might have not heard of, it is about the best albums of the year, and, frankly to me, the new Iron Maiden album WAS the best album of the year. Iron Maiden, in their post-2000 reunion career have matured further and further with each album, making a turn to a progressive sound and favoring 10-minute epics. In this endeavour, coming out strong from Bruce Dickinson's battle with cancer, Iron Maiden put out the best post re-union record yet (excluding Brave New World). They have songs for all tastes, culminating to the very personal song "Empire of the Clouds", written by Bruce himself. A record worthy of their name and a worthwile listen even for people that are not Iron Maiden fans.
100/100
Even though there is no reason for that, below is a music video from the album. After this, this blog will take a short break before returning for the top albums of 2014.
