Iron Maiden CONFIRMED to play Soundwave AND Australian Tour
Steve-0, 6-Aug-10 » 
Maiden are one of the few artists that inspire loyalty and worship by a constantly growing army
that spans several generations of not only fans, but other rock musicians ranging from today’s biggest metal bands to pop icons.
What makes Iron Maiden unique amongst their peers is that the band has never
lost their creative touch and their ability to deliver album after album of greatness. Just when you would think there cannot be another hitherto undiscovered original yet amazing guitar riff; Maiden turn up with another album full of new classics to add to metal and rock’s greatest back catalogue.
Only a fool would bet against the band’s upcoming album, ‘The Final Frontier’,
being anything less than a masterpiece. Only a fool would bet against Iron Maiden, period.
Maiden will be bringing with them the full stage production that featured in their hugely successful recent tour of North America, where they played to almost 400,000 fans over the 25 shows. And of course that includes Eddie’s latest incarnation..!!
Joining our gargantuan headliners is a cast of rock, punk and metal luminaries,
headed by the regal guitar rock of QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE, metal gods SLAYER,
indie pioneers PRIMUS, the incomparable SLASH and fifty or so other international artists who form the who is who of cutting edge music for the coming decade. And that is just the 1st announcement...
