![]() Iron Maiden's legendary World Slavery Tour finished only 10 years earlier. It's 18 years since Bruce Dickinson returned to Maiden by now. He would be missing from the band for only 6 years, not even full ones Mike Portnoy is soon heading into completing his 7th year out of Dream Theater. ![]() Bruce Dickinson had "just" left Iron Maiden, The X Factor was the new album by the band when I discovered them. Not even 4 full years, I was already a metalhead by the time 25th November 1995 arrived. Freddy Mercury died just 4 years earlier. ![]() This thread is about 1996/97, allow me to go back a further year, 1995, the year when I became a metalhead discovering and falling in love with Iron Maiden first and foremost, and then Metallica, Blind Guardian, Helloween, Manowar and more others.īy that time, even if decades hadn't passed yet, or barely did, it all seemed as I said "ancient history" albums like Master of Puppets and Powerslave, but then again, looking at numbers in 1995 when I entered the world of metal. ![]() A bit of a bump for some ramblings about how time flies, and how also our perception of it changes - am I the only one that considers "ancient history" things happened in the past of a band you just discovered (especially big ones who are around since a lot of time), while looking at the cold timeline of years it all seems so recent in comparison?
