Iron Maiden Symphony

[Teiaaa]

Hey! Im not sure if I'm allowed to post this here but I found amazing Iron Maiden Symphony medley. This was preformed and written by amateur orchestra. Really amazing!

That's fucking amazing. Great arrangement, great performance. Really excellent work

I got a good 2 minutes into that, which is way farther than I could bring myself to go into actual Maiden.

[Juggz]

There was a good two minutes?

[astfgyl]

Lol, no there actually wasn't!

I dunno...I find all these symphonic interpretations a bit dull and pointless....the worst has to be S&M though...its sounds a bit like when cassettes used to bleed through back in the day..

[Blackout]

Yeah same here. Dimmu borgir are an amazing band but live with an orchestra they sound very muddy.  Just use your keyboards and samples ffs.

I don't find any of the versions on S&M to be superior to the regular live versions, but I do think the two new tunes at that gig sounded decent with the orchestra. I have no regular version to compare them to though.

Aye not great at all. Normally dislike orchestras with metal bands. This being the exception.

I was there for the gig and for the most part the orchestra could barely be heard, was a bit disappointing. Ocean Machine was amazing though

[Giggles]

I think it sounds class. I'd like to hear more of these.

What's with the S&M comparisons? There is no metal band playing here just an orchestra, surely they're incomparable?

[livingabortion]

Yeah it doesn't seem right comparing the two as Iron Maiden aren't part of it.

I actually think this was pretty good. What the hell where you expecting? A thousand piece orchestra with pyro and a 60ft Eddie walking out with a 15 foot dick?
