Iron Maiden

In this electrifying live performance captured on November 30, 1995, Iron Maiden played 'Fortunes of War' at the PalaTrussardi in Milan, Italy. This concert occurred just after the release of their critically acclaimed album 'The X Factor', which came out in 1995 and marked the band's first endeavor with vocalist Blaze Bayley. The album demonstrated a notable shift in style and lyrical themes, touching on darker and more personal narratives, something Bayley was keen on emphasizing. Iron Maiden, known for their theatrical live shows, delivered a powerful performance, resonating deeply with fans familiar with both the classic and newer material. Fun fact: 'The X Factor' was pivotal, as it also signaled a transition within the band during a challenging time, helping them pave the way for their future successes, including the return of Bruce Dickinson in later years.
