Producer Kevin Shirley has updated his diary with this great piece of news:

"The new Iron Maiden album is all finished - all the stereo mixes, the surround mixes and the mastering - and so my job there is now done, and this new album has been such a lot of fun to make. I think everyone involved has really enjoyed it. It is a very organic album, and the basic tracks really reflect the way the band plays. Of course there is more dimension to it than it just being a raw performance, and the overdubs are fairly diverse, including everything from acoustic guitars and an orchestra to slamming guitars and monstrous explosions! Pictured above, in the studio, are Rod Smallwood (Maiden manager), Bruce, Nicko, Davey, Val (from the office!), Janick, Steve and Dave (also from the office!).* Both the Led Zep and Maiden projects were done at SARM West Studios in London, and what a wonderfully creative environment in which to work, and for that I must give them huge thanks and much love for their care and dedication, not to mention all the little things they did which made life very pleasant for me for a full year! *".
