Iron Maiden are to release a series of vinyl reissues in the run up to their 2017 world tour dates. The set, which will feature twelve albums starting with 1990's 'No Prayer For The Dying' and finishing with 2012's 'En Vivo!' live set, will also include space to store 2015's 'The Book Of Souls' , and follows on from a similar reissue series that saw their 1980s' output re-released in 2014.
Parlophone Records will follow the 2014 reissue of the first eight Iron Maiden albums, with twelve brand new pressings of albums from the period 1990-2015 in heavyweight 180g black vinyl. Unlike the 1980’s reissues which were cut from the original analogue master tapes, the audio on these releases has been cut from the high resolution remasters of 2015 when the Maiden catalogue was digitally upgraded. They will be packaged in identical artwork to the initial vinyl releases.
The records will be released chronologically across a three month period:
These high quality, black vinyls comprised of eight studio albums together with a specially selected choice of four live recordings from this period, completes the Iron Maiden album reissues series and offers Maiden fans the opportunity to own the band’s entire studio album legacy on vinyl simultaneously for the very first time.
Iron Maiden’s 'The Book Of Souls Tour' resumes with a series of arena shows opening in Sportpalais, Antwerp, Belgium on 22nd April and continuing into Germany, UK and Ireland, finishing with two sold-out shows at London’s 02 arena on 27th & 28th May.
The band then flies to the U.S.A for an extensive series of arena and amphitheatre shows including dates in Canada, ending with two nights in Brooklyn, New York on 21 & 22 July. This is the final leg of 'The Book Of Souls Tour'.
Most shows are already sold-out. Go to www.ironmaiden.com for availability. The full list of dates is below.
