Product description
Appears as a black 180g triple LP edition.
Parlophone Records proudly announces the release of IRON MAIDEN's 17th studio album 'Senjutsu' on September 3, their first in 6 years. It was recorded in Paris with longtime producer Kevin Shirley and co-produced by Steve Harris. For 'Senjutsu' - freely d as 'tactics and strategy' - the band once again enlisted the services of Mark Wilkinson to create the spectacular samurai-themed cover artwork based on an idea by Steve Harris. With a playing time of just under 82 minutes, 'Senjutsu', like its predecessor 'The Book Of Souls', will be a double CD/triple Vinyl album.
Steve says, 'We decided to record again at Guillaume Tell Studio in France because this place has such a relaxed vibe. The setup there perfectly suits our needs; the building used to be a cinema and has a very high ceiling, which gives a fantastic acoustic sound. We recorded this album in the same way as 'The Book Of Souls', meaning we write a song, rehearse it, and record it together while everything is still fresh in our minds. This album has some very complex songs that demanded a lot of hard work to get their sound just right, so the process was sometimes quite challenging, but Kevin is very good at capturing the essence of the band and I think it was worth the effort! I am very proud of the result and can't wait for the fans to hear it.' Lead singer Bruce Dickinson adds, 'We're all really excited about this album. We recorded it in early 2019 during a break from the Legacy Tour to have as much time as possible to Tour and still have a long lead-up to the release to prepare good artwork and something special as a video. Of course, the pandemic has further delayed things - so much for planning ahead, or should I say 'strategizing'?! The songs are very diverse, and some of them are quite long. There are also one or two songs that deviate quite a bit from our usual style, and I think Maiden fans will be pleasantly surprised - or at least I hope so!'
