My feelings have pretty much all been covered here.
1: The video is fantastic
I could never get my copy of Ed Hunter to work, so I don't know if any of the footage comes from that.
Nah, there's nothing in there from that, but the whole time I was thinking "This is what EdHunter SHOULD'VE been" because then EdHunter would be awesome and not a steaming pile of EdShit.
2: Nicko's snare is more boxey than ringy, which gives an 80s Maiden vibe to it I feel - I welcome it, although I can see how some people would perceive that as 'dead' sounding.
3: Bruce sounds amazing, and channelling some major Dio vibes.
4: This might be one of the only singles posr-reunion that isn't in the key of E, and doesn't rely on the typical VI-VII-I Maiden run (those numbers may be wrong as my theory is rubbish, but I'm thinking that E-C-D thing that is a Maiden cliché), that to me makes it sound fresh, and has me pumped way more than the lead singles of TFF.
I'm absolutely stoked with the song, and am now even more pumped for the album - WAY more than I ever was for TFF and I feel like this could be a huge step up for me personally.
