New Derek Artwork and Iron Maidens Samples
After offering a first glimpse of their new album's artwork, the Iron Maidens are now showing a small image of the entire cover, made by none other than Derek Riggs:[attachmentid=370]
A zoom on the creature's face shows it's a female Eddie, as it was strongly rumored for some time:

couldn't agree more
the samples sound pretty good too!
Samples sound great and the group look great too.
Hmm, I didn't think I'd see the day that Riggsy would draw anything Eddie related..
Hopefully he reconsiders and teams up with Maiden again. That'd make my day for the next couple of years.
I wonder, because they SELL CD's at concerts but not in stores....
How did they manage that with EMI + Sanctuary?
i've seen seen the Iron Maidens play at a show in LA and they were just like maiden....only chicks. the stage was set up just like a maiden concert, dressed just like the guys(of course in a femineme way) down to nicko's sweatbands, guitarists on both sides of the vocalist, bassist to the singers left...amazing...maiden as girls...OH YEAH!!!!
I like this cover! Is a real derek one, like the old maiden's ones...

Hi MaidenAustria
That's a very good and important question, especially to fans. It's quite simple, actually. One simply applies for licensing and pays the appropriate fees, which is what we've done.

It looks like a mix the Killer's Eddie, and the one on the Early Days DVD.
But it's really cool...wow !!
Nice work Derek R.
