Musically there is nowt wrong with it, good punchy track, crackin lead work. The lyrics are awful, but then that is pretty much true of the whole album.

Maiden's lyrics are generally shit though.

Man On The Edge lacks spark to me, and Bayley's voice doesn't sound that good on it.

It sounds by the numbers.

Oh go on then...

Hallowed
Icarus
Aces High or Mariner
Sea of Madness
