The Ripple

Iron Maiden's The Final Frontier

A frontier too far?

14 October 2010

Thirty-five years, fifteen studio albums and one-hundred million records sold worldwide. Not bad for a band who have had little radio airplay or mainstream media support. Nevertheless, Iron Maiden are back with their latest effort; The Final Frontier.

   Bassist and creative driving force of the band Steve Harris has always envisaged the band finishing after fifteen studio albums, and low-and-behold this is number fifteen. With a title likeThe Final Frontier, fans will be left guessing till the very end just how serious Harris was in his vision.

   Opening with the dirtiest bass riff Harris has ever written, Satellite 15, The Final Frontier has epic written all over it and shows that the Maiden machine of 2010 marches to a very different beat from their 1980s heyday. First single El Dorado is the catchiest song the band have written since The Wicker Man a decade ago, and with lyrics such as ‘‘I’m a clever banker’s face’’, the band show that they’re still in touch with modern culture, not a nostalgia act. All seven minutes ofStarblind reveal the band’s darker side in all its majestic glory and When The Wild Wind Blowsis a fitting end to such a vast and eclectic album.

   The album is a challenging listen, but followers of the band from the last ten years have probably come to expect this by now. Constantly treading new ground, never staying within their comfort zone, the band make this album a rewarding experience with some genuinely surprising elements fitting nicely alongside some trademark motifs. Most noticeable is how much better this album is than 2006’s disappointing A Matter Of Life And Death both in terms of songwriting nous and production value.

   If you’re looking to discover Maiden’s music this isn’t the album to do it with, largely because of the lengthy nature of the songs. Nevertheless, fans of the band will lap up every moment of this gem. If this is their last album then the band have defied all the odds and their loyal legion of fans will no doubt follow the band till the very end.
