Since its release on Powerslave in 1984, this song has remained a staple in the band’s catalogue. And that’s because it’s got everything we love about Maiden: the driving Steve Harris bassline, the epic harmonic with Dave Murray and Adrian Smith, the dramatic key changes, the dueling solos, all of it is here! In this video, we’re gonna take a look at all the amazing things mastering this song can teach us. Let’s GET INTO IT!
