This week, we're continuing our foray into Bruce Dickinson's swansong with Maiden, 'Fear of the Dark'. How does it compare to the album before? And is it a fitting note for Maiden's iconic frontman to end on (for now)? Join us and find out!

Right. No more detours. We're charting the good ship Maiden Voyagers on a course back to the band's studio albums. But what about Iron Maiden themselves? After the uh... mixed 'No Prayer For The Dying', can the band course correct with 'Fear of the Dark'? Join Bledd and Sam as they fare the rising tides of the '90s and Bruce Dickinson hops out on a life boat.

In a slight change to our scheduled programming, we're not jumping in to 'Fear of the Dark' just yet. Instead, Bledd and Sam talk all things 'The Mandrake Project' - including their ultimate fanboy experience of meeting Bruce Dickinson at the album's launch event. Good times!

After a... little break, Bledd and Sam are back to continue their voyage through Iron Maiden's storied discography. Honestly though, they needed that time to steel themselves for the choppy waters of Maiden in the 1990s. But first, before they get in to the rumbling waves of Fear of the Dark, join the two seafarers as they talk shop about Maiden current affairs (well, "current" to January, when this episode was recorded) and put Bledd's trivia knowledge to the test.

It's the final episode of the season! Join Bledd and Sam as they cast a critical eye on 'No Prayer For The Dying' and round up the ranking results for the discog so far.

No Adrian, no synths - it's all change in the Iron Maiden camp as the 1990s rear their head. Join Bledd and Sam as they jump in to the band's 'No Prayer For The Dying'. It might get bumpy.

For this week only, Maiden Voyagers becomes... Dickinson's Voyagers? Dickinson's Detours? We couldn't decide on a name. But ahead of delving in to Iron Maiden's 'No Prayer For The Dying', Bledd and Sam take a moment to analyse frontman Bruce Dickinson's first solo effort. Marking a stylistic departure of sorts for Dickinson and introducing guitarist Janick Gers, it certainly lays the groundwork for Maiden's next release.

In a slight departure from our scheduled program, Bledd and Sam take the opportunity to reflect on Iron Maiden's Future Past Tour (again) now that it's wrapped-up (and they actually attended a show). Join them for a tale of Dixie Chicken and Utilita Arena.  Just as a small disclaimer, this episode was recorded before Nicko went public with his health issues. We discuss some of his playing, but obviously that vital context is missing so do please keep that in mind. Wishing Nicko all the best...

In our second part of Seventh Son of a Seventh Son, Bledd and Sam spend far too much time analysing one of Iron Maiden's most renowned albums. But does it live up to the hype? I mean, yes. Obvs. But still, let's talk about why it's so good.

Only a week later than originally billed, Sam and Bledd dive in to Maiden's proggiest album to date - Seventh Son of A Seventh Son. Is it actually that proggy? Is it even a concept album? Who knows - the only thing we're sure of is there'll be synths galore.

With the Maiden lads having kicked off The Future Past Tour, Bledd and Sam take a break from their usual album analysis to mark the occasion instead. Instead, join us as we put together our dream Maiden gigs, covering everything from set-lists to just how many pyro displays go off.

On this week's ep, Sam and Blev continue to get in to the weeds on Maiden's ode to guitar-synths, 'Somewhere In Time', and lavish praise on Adrian smith.

This week, Blev and Sam kick off their discussion on one of Maiden's oddly less talked about albums. Join them as they delve in to a world replete with Adrian Smith's songwriting and guitar synths.

On this week's edition, Blev and Sam get in to the weeds of the songs on Powerslave and ask the big questions, like does an album really need two songs about sword-fighting? (Spoiler: no)

Alright, now we're getting to the good stuff. Back to the albums proper. This week, Blev and Sam delve in to the background behind one of Maiden's most iconic albums, Powerslave.

After an *ahem* extended break, your Maiden Voyagers are back. Join Blev and Sam as they catch up on all things Maiden, lay out a couple of plans and just generally dust off a few cobwebs before getting started on the next slate of albums.

In the season one finale, Blev and Sam continue their excavation of Iron Maiden's fourth album, 'Piece of Mind'. Join them as they attempt to come to terms with the artistic dichotomy between tracks like 'The Trooper' and 'Quest For Fire'.   While this is the end of the first set of episodes, don't fret. Maiden Voyagers will be back towards the end of February with more pedantic opinions!

In this week's episode, Blev and Sam jump in to Iron Maiden's fourth album. Filled with some of the band's biggest classics, join them as they give Piece of Mind a piece of their mind. 

Join Blev and Sam on the final part of their discussion on all things The Number of the Beast - featuring the all new segment 'Lawsuit'!

Join Blev and Sam as they continue their deep dive in to one of Iron Maiden's biggest artistic statements, The Number of the Beast, in this second of three parts.

Join Blev and Sam as they finally tackle the addition of Bruce Dickinson to the Iron Maiden fold in the first of this three-parter on the all-time classic 'The Number of the Beast'.

Blev and Sam take a brief pause from their regularly scheduled album deep-dives to have a chat about some (semi) recent goings-on in the world of Iron Maiden. 

On this week's episode, Blev and Sam continue their deep dive in to Iron Maiden's second album, Killers. Join them as they delve in to the album's tracks in borderline excruciating detail.

This week, join Blev and Sam as they start to delve in to the difficult second album, Killers. As well as covering the run-up to the album's release and the various band tensions that come with it, Blev quizzes Sam on obscure trivia and Sam attempts to fact-check some of the many question marks left over from Eps 1 and 2.
