Listen to the new Iron Maiden album “Senjutsu”

English heavy metal legends Iron Maiden released their new album “Senjutsu” today via Warner Music. The group’s first LP in six years was recorded in Paris with longstanding producer Kevin Shirley and co-produced by Harris. It was preceded by a highly acclaimed animated video for the first single “The Writing On The Wall” made by BlinkInk based on a concept by singer Bruce Dickinson with two former Pixar executives. It followed a month-long teaser campaign and global “treasure hunt” for clues about the track title and concept.

For “Senjutsu” — loosely translated as “tactics and strategy” — the band once again enlisted the services of Mark Wilkinson to create the spectacular Samurai themed cover artwork, based on an idea by bassist Steve Harris. With a running time of a little under 82 minutes, “Senjutsu”, like their previous record “The Book Of Souls”, will be a double CD/Triple vinyl album.
