    Rating:
    Maiden's 6th studio album and this time they've actually changed a bit. Not that much that you care about it, but they do some keyboards here which makes it sound very modern for being the late 80's. Not bad in any way though.
    Many great tracks here but for example "Stranger in a strange land" is a very overrated song in my opinion, I never really liked it. "Sea of madness" isn't that exciting either.
    But on the other hand "Alexander the great" and "Deja-vu" are perhaps the songs from this album that got the least attention but would deserve to get it the most.
    Another must-have Maiden album as simple as that.
