I have this one. Haven't listened to it in a long time but if I remember correctly this was the album that made me think "This sounds like Pink Floyd.".

You can tell Pink Floyd was an inspiration, but I don't think they actually sound like Floyd. Modern melodic "atmospheric rock" that borrows some of the sonic textures of Prog without actually being Prog.

Maiden Mania was Two Minutes To Tuesday:

Journeyman
Hallowed Be Thy Name
Rime Of The Ancient Mariner
Como Estais Amigos
Can I Play With Madness
Number Of The Beast
Blood On The World's Hands

Regular playlist:


Melodic metal masterpiece! This will be in the top 5 for sure and the best Lillian Axe album since the debut IMO.

I like the first two BbB albums but this may be the best. I certainly like the new vocalist as he doesn't sound quite as menotonous as the other guy.

Probably why I remember liking it. I need to dig this one out again.

Just now listening to that song. This album is my first one. Used it was still about $15 (cheaper than Amazon Marketplace though) but I've heard enough good things about this band that it didn't take me long to buy it.

Lead singer Veronica Freeman's ability to sound like both Dio and Udo (on later albums) is almost uncanny.

Their two most recent albums I've really been enjoying; "Weather Systems" and "We're Here Because We're Here", very melodic and dare I say "pretty". I just started exploring their earlier material. Based on the stuff you listen to I think you'd really dig their new albums.

I only have their early post-death metal stuff. "Eternity", "Judgment", "Alternative 4" and "Fine Day To Exit"

The first album I heard was "We're Here Because We're Here" because I saw it was produced/mixed by Steven Wilson and figured it would be something I'd enjoy, I'm glad I decided to give them a listen. Based on Judgement their sound is essentially the same, though they are more refined and polished in their execution now.

Opeth - Orchid

Barbe-Q-Barbies - All Over You
Axxis - Kingdom of the Night
Jeff Beck - Guitar Shop
