On This Day in Metal

May 29th, 2000

Iron Maiden released Brave New World, marking the triumphant return of Bruce Dickinson and Adrian Smith to the band. The album reignited Maiden's creative fire and delivered modern classics like "The Wicker Man," "Blood Brothers," and the epic title track.

More than two decades later, Brave New World remains one of the strongest comeback albums in heavy metal history and a fan favorite in Iron Maiden's legendary catalog.

What's your favorite song from Brave New World and where does this album rank among Iron Maiden's best releases?

World Cup 98 was released on this day in 1998. EA's first tournament tie-in. Late 90s FIFA gameplay, fast and fun. A Tubthumping soundtrack, Motty and Waddle on commentary. Blocky players but accurate kits and all 10 stadiums represented. Memories of this one?
