Iron Maiden

In June 2000, Iron Maiden delivered a thrilling performance at Earl's Court in London, marking a resurgence for the band following the return of frontman Bruce Dickinson and guitarist Adrian Smith. This live recording of 'The Wicker Man' showcases the energy and excitement surrounding the 'Brave New World' album, which was released just prior in 2000. This album was significant as it was Iron Maiden's first studio release after reuniting with key members, effectively re-establishing their iconic sound. Fans were eager to see the band's reunion live, and this concert captured the raw power of their performance, rekindling the band’s connection with its audience. Interestingly, 'The Wicker Man' was among the lead singles, representing Maiden's blend of nostalgia and fresh creativity that resonated well with both longtime followers and new listeners alike.
