If anyone's looking to get into them, here's a compilation of what I consider to be some of the very best of


Not surprisingly, it's split across three archives (would have been two, but the second one was larger than Mediafire allows for a single upload).

Volume I covers the early Di'Anno material and the Dickinson era up to his departure after "Fear of the dark".

Prowler
Phantom of the opera
Strange world
Iron Maiden
Wrathchild
Murders in the Rue Morgue
Killers
Prodigal son
Drifter
The Prisoner
Run to the hills
The number of the Beast
Hallowed be thy name
The Trooper
Where eagles dare
Sun and steel
To tame a land
Flight of Icarus
Aces high
Powerslave
Rime of the Ancient Mariner
Caught somewhere in time
Heaven can wait
Sea of madness
Moonchild
The evil that men do
Only the good die young
Tailgunner
Holy smoke
Hooks in you
Bring your daughter ... to the slaughter
Afraid to shoot strangers
Childhood's end
Judas be my guide
Fear of the dark

Iron Maiden.rar

Volume 2 covers the interim years with Blaze Bayley, basically two albums

Sign of the cross
Lord of the flies
Man on the edge
The angel and the gambler
The Clansman
Don't look to the eyes of a stranger

iron maiden 2b.rar

and finally volume 3 is everything from Bruce's return up to the present.

Ghost of the navigator
Brave new world
Blood brothers
The nomad
Rainmaker
Montsegur
Paschendale
Journeyman
These colours don't run
The longest day
Lord of light
Satellite 15 ... the final frontier
Island of Avalon
Starblind
The man who would be king
When the wild wind blows

Iron Maiden 2a.rar

Enjoy!

Excellent, I might need to free up some space for that 2a stuff. None of it rings a bell.

That covers "Brave new world", Bruce's comeback album and one of the first I reviewed in my journal, "Dance of death", "A matter of life and death" and the latest studio, "The final frontier". Good albums, but apart from BNW I don't really think they're as good as the earlier, classic Maiden albums. Definitely worth a listen though.

Where is Innocent Exile and Still Life Trollheart? Two of my favourite all time Maiden tunes but it's all subjective. Top effort sir! Great to see To Tame A Land. Superb track.

Yeah, I know: cutting the list down hurt like hell. Lots of tracks I would have liked to have included, but you have to draw the line somewhere, dont'ya?

Freak Folk

(soon I will stop trembling)


I made this mix few days ago for 8tracks, but inspired by Big Four Bands Thread decided to post it here too. Like I said there, I see freak folk genre as a modern scene influenced by 60s psychedelic jams, especially by more out there freak-outs (Red Krayola, Cromagnon, for example); Sun City Girls/Sir Richard Bishop brand of primitivism; and minimalism/drone of La Monte Young, Tony Conrad, Terry Riley etc...

I didn't make this playlist to be a beginner's guide, but it can serve as one. The mix is more oriented toward mystical, pagan side of freak folk (like being alone in the dark wood). It's interesting to compare it to neo-folk, which is, with its ties to early industrial, drenched in occult; this on the other side is swimming in 'primitive' ritual.

Tracklist

Fursaxa - "Alone in the Dark Wood" (Alone in the Dark Wood, 2007)
Kabyzdoh Obtruhamchi - "Viva Piskadero!" (Estcho, 2009)
Wooden Veil - "Gloom Across the Ice" (Wooden Veil, 2009)
Inca Ore - "Everlasting Fountain" (Birthday Of Bless You, 2008)
Vibracathedral Orchestra - "Ordinary Babies" (Versatile Arab Chord Chart, 2000)
Islaja - "Palaa aurinkoon" (Palaa aurinkoon, 2005)
Lau Nau - "Kuljen halki kuutarhan" (Kuutarha, 2004)
Spires That in the Sunset Rise - "Bells Don't Ring At Night" (Spires That in the Sunset Rise, 2004)
Anna Homler and Steve Moshier - "Sirens" (Breadwoman & Other Tales, 2016)
Pocahaunted - "Ashes is White" (Island Diamonds, 2008)
Paavoharju - "Vitivalkoinen" (Yhä Hämärää, 2005)
Sun Araw - "The Phynx" (The Phynx, 2008)
Badgerlore - "Building a Nest" (Stories for Owls, 2005)
Topaz Rags - "Darker Sooner" (Capricorn Born Again, 2009)
Charalambides - "Strokes" (Joy Shapes, 2004)
The Tower Recordings - "Harmengi - The Tower Becomes A Sun" (Folkscene, 2001)

Hi dankrsta! It's so nice to see you posting here again after such a long time. I hope you are well.
Many thanks for your compilation, which I have downloaded but not listened to yet. I only recognised one name from the bands you listed and obviously know less about Freak Folk than I imagined. oops!
