Iron Maiden — 'Powerslave' 40th Anniversary Master Remaster

The twin guitar assault of Murray and Smith sounds punchier than ever in analog.

Powerslave is the record where Maiden became Maiden: the galloping dual-guitar attack, the Egypt-themed Maiden-isms, and the eleven-minute 'Rime of the Ancient Mariner' that closes the side. This 40th anniversary remaster sharpens the top end without touching the warmth.

On 180g virgin vinyl, Steve Harris's bass finally sits where it always belonged in the mix — front, present, and driving every single song. If you own one metal album on vinyl, own this one.
