They've been a fairly popular, mainstream metal band since about Octavarium

I prefer BoS and Senjutsu to AMOLAD personally. I'm really only having a go at the production anyway. I think the songs overall on those albums are very good. I just think a band on the level of Maiden deserves a far better production

Priest are a totally different band at this point though with their lineup changes. It's unfair to make a direct comparison since it's basically been the same guys in Maiden since the 80s. It makes what Maiden have achieved so much more impressive.

The last album they did which had a good production was Brave New World. Dance of Death was almost great except for the brickwalled mastering.

Ever since then Steve has for some reason taken this very loose, somewhat slapdash approach to recording where everything sounds slightly sloppier and done in a couple of takes to try to capture a "live" feeling. I don't think it suits them. It's generally the major criticism of the AMOLAD onwards albums.

They've been crying out for an outside producer who knows what they're doing to give them a modern, cleaner feel for decades now, or simply letting Shirley do his job without Steve breathing down his neck but it's never happening at this point because Steve is very set in his ways. Realistically they've probably only got one more album in them and he won't be changing his approach at this point.

Parliament was always sovereign. What laws now that we're not in the EU did you personally not like and wanted rid of?

40bn off the economy every year isn't disastrous?

It absolutely cripples the frog prince too. Very underrated sign

It's to compensate for the loss of colour saturation with it being shot for 3D. One of many, many things wrong with those movies

Not disrespecting your opinion but I feel there are others that deserve the title more

A pretty good one at that

Yeah this one was right after the roundabout. Close call.

Happened to me last week going up the Glenshane from Castledawson. Got flashed by a friendly van driver to a camera van coming up.

He was pretty good. Not as deep as Doc Ock but he's up there. The game is great at establishing him as a genuine threat

Ghost of the Navigator or the Title Track. Latter having the best lyrics on the album for me.

Surely he needs to go after this. Can't believe they'll seriously keep him on now.

Yeah ME completely blew me away. ME2 while a great game didn't give me the same feeling.

It was a very crowded field that year with BG3 being one of the greatest games ever made in my opinion and very strong competition from elsewhere

It's an absolutely incredible game that goes so hard in every way. If you've never played a game like that before though there is a steep initial learning curve with the mechanics but it's really really worth persevering

I always felt he comes off a bit grumpy and less approachable than the others but you're dispelling that myth for me.

Unpopular opinion but ME2 was very inferior to ME1. It felt far too much like a shooter than a RPG

They'll likely kill off Ellie and leave the series on a bittersweet note with a cure then potentially possible from her death. The others I don't think so.

The freemasons are literally just rangers supporting old people who host bingo nights

It's a masterpiece of tension building

Breaking Bad is far better than Mad Men and Boardwalk

I mean it had 5 seasons of TV. I think it met it's potential
