Iron Maiden and Anthrax in the same band?
Despite the official statement released by Sanctuary Artists Management on behalf of Nicko McBrain denying that he has joined Dan Spitz's new band 7X70, the official web site of the band claims that the information is correct. [url=http://seventimesseventy.com]Seventimesseventy.com[/url] report that one of their Demo Mix's has been stolen and now is downloadable on the NET. Because of that they are now forced to at least inform the fans about the songs and project. The song is titled "OFF THE CHAIN" and is available [url=http://www.xtremegamez.net/huh.htm]here.[/url] More info about 7X70 at this [url=http://seventimesseventy.com/ss.html]location.[/url]UPDATED
Blabbermouth.net reported that the lead vocals on "Off The Chain" features '80s rapper-turned-nu-metaller VANILLA ICE. Also SEVEN X SEVENTY is said to feature in its ranks Spitz's brother Dave (ex-BLACK SABBATH, LITA FORD, GREAT WHITE) on bass.

Its not exactly something that I would have expected Nicko to play. A bit too rappy, but its tolerable.Spitz has a pretty good guitar sound in it.Hopefully the rest of the bands stuff will be more metal (A hybrid Maiden/Anthrax would sound awsome 
)
It might be a little offtopic but I have to say....
i'll see Anthrax tonight live in concert
Yipeeee
FUCK MCBRAIN!! GOING NU-METAL THAT MOTHERFUCKER! ![ed_barf[1].gif](style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ed_barf[1].gif)

MAIDEN SHOULD KICK HIM OUT OF THE BAND!
What? Anthrax old guitarist is "Godfather of rap" nothing ive heard from anthrax is rap!
Yeah its not really to the majority of Maiden fans tastes
Nicko for me is not much important... so: go away!

They only really did those 2 songs. Most else is thrash. Bring the Noise was the song they did with Public Enemy. Joey didn't rap but Scott did on it.
I'm The Man was a funny song were they all rapped. Here are the lyrics:
Now we're Anthrax
And we take no shit
And we don't care for writing hits
'Cause the sound you hear is what we like
And I'll steal your pop tarts like I stole your...
socks
Yo man, what's a matter with you
Charlie beats the beats the beats you beat
The only thing harder is the smell of my feet
So listen up 'cause you might get dissed
Go drain the lizard or take a...
chair
Watch the beat!
I'm on your case
I'm in your face
Put you and your father back in place
Step up sucker understand
Don't you know that I'm the Man
I'm the Man
I'm so bad
I should be in detention
I'm the Man
Shut up!
We got real def rhythms and fresh new jams
If you think we got egos, well we're all just hams
Scott plays stickball and likes to skate
Frankie's never on time; he's always...
Sleeping
Late!
They drink the drinks they drinks they drank
I put my money in the bank
They cut their crack; they offer joints
We don't do drugs to get our...
Meaning!
POINT!
Watch the beat!
I'm on your case
I'm in your face
Put you and your father back in place
Step up sucker understand
Don't you know that I'm the Man
I'm the Man
I'm so bad
I should be in detention
I'm the Man
For a heavy metal band raps a different way
We like to be different and not cliche
Well they say rap and metal can never mix
Well of them can suck our...
Sexual organ located in the lower abdominal area
No man, it's dick!
Danny farted the farts the farts he farted
I pick my nose but I'm not retarded
So like El Duce says, "smell my anal vapor"
And wipe my butt with your...
Face!
Toilet paper! Watch the beat!
I'm on your case
I'm in your face
Put you and your father back in place
Step up sucker understand
Don't you know that I'm the Man
I'm the Man
I'm so bad
I should be in detention
I'm the Man
So as this rap is winding down
Can't you see we wear the crown
You know Anthrax is number one
But we really don't care; we just want to have...
A festival!
FUN, you stupid idiot!
Joey mailed the mail the mail he mailed
We are the kings and all shall hail
We're like a diamond that is forever
And we'll remain the hardest ever
I'm so bad
It's a crime
I've listened the song and checked the website.
I have a question, does someone know the answer?
When could Nicko have time to enter the studio and record this song? When exactly Iron Maiden finished recordings and started warming up in studio for the Give Me Ed.. tour? Did he had enough time to make this song and some others?
The website that was linked seemed TOO amateur. Not only its design, but there had been no copyright statements.
As for now, I stick with the official statement.
(Is it really Nicko's voice at the beginning?)
well ive heard "im the man" now, and really, it sounds like they are just fuckin around!
Thats Nicko playing! I know his drum fills anywhere! Hey, it's not something I thought Nicko would do but it shows his diversity.......and thats great! Its shows that Nicko could play just like these modern drummers today which makes Nicko more of a fantastic drummer in my eyes and ears! I don't think Nicko's taking this thing that seriously....we all know that Iron Maiden is his wife, but hey...people cheat sometimes, and the sex can be different! Best of luck to Nicko with anything he does! Up The Nicko, the greatest drummer ever!
Is this rapper guy vocalist on all the tracks or just this one?
