The 2022 European summer festival where metal bands from all over the world are gathering after recovering from the new Corona Pandemic. The latest live album of IRON MAIDEN, who reigns as the champion in the dense scene, is now available.
It is “Hyvinkää performance on June 4, 2022” that is imbued with such a work. It is a thick audience recording when performing at the music festival “ROCKFEST” which represents Finland. Our shop has reported the latest “LEGACY OF THE BEAST World Tour” from the first day, and this is the 4th work. First of all, let’s organize the positional relationship of each from the tour schedule.

This is the overall picture of the ongoing “LEGACY OF THE BEAST Tour 2022”. Until the end of July, he was touring the summer festivals in Europe, and the appearance of “ROCKFEST” in this work was the sixth performance of the concert. In fact, in the case of IRON MAIDEN, it is said that this is the actual tour. Steve Harris has always said, “It will take about five times to get into shape,” and collectors see the 5th to 15th performances as sweet spots on any tour. Well, there are some tours that don’t really follow the rules, but they must be one med.
● Extra-thick recording with a feeling of openness that seems to be outdoors with zero echo
This work, which is a vacuum-packed stage of such attention, is truly a superb business. The sound of “KAUNAS 2022 (Shades 1537)” that I introduced last time was like “Isn’t it more than that?”, But I was surprised that this work was not defeated either. What is amazing is the direct feeling and dynamism because it is an outdoor recording with zero echo. “KAUNAS 2022” had a tight feeling as if it had been squeezed to the limit, but this work is extremely thick. Of course, the hall sound is zero only outdoors, and this thickness is derived from the PA sound. Therefore, even if it is thick, the details are clear. Moreover, this daminism is perfect for the epic line of “tactics”. The profound world view has a powerful force, and it draws a wonderfully big spectacle.
It is the wind at the scene that has an unexpected effect on the epic world view, and it seems that the wind is blowing at the scene, and the wind sounds are picked up a little by “Doctor Doctor” and “Blood Brothers” that announce the start of the performance. .. Of course, it is usually a drawback, but the performance sound of this work is so thick that it can survive the wind, and it suppresses the wind sound. Moreover, it is strange that the wind becomes a spice and creates a strangely magnificent mood. If it is “The Writing On The Wall”, it seems that a festival is being held in the PV world of SF Samurai picture scrolls.
● A perfect show and a 70-year-old birthday song
In this work, you can experience the 2022 model “LEGACY OF THE BEAST” as “Ultimate Best + New Song” with such a thick spectacle sound. As you already know the set, I will omit it, but the performance to spell it is the best. Bruce Dickinson has been in great shape since the premiere of this tour, but in this work, the musical instruments are also in full swing mode. The full show is being developed as expected by collectors around the world.
And not only that, Nicko McBrain is special only for this work. In fact, the day after this work, “July 5th,” is his 70th birthday. The audience at the scene knew that from the beginning, and they have been firing Nico Calls since the start of the performance. Then, the band responds to the mood, and after the encore’s “Aces High” reaches the big circle, a big chorus of the birthday song is performed at the temperature of the blues.
The latest model “LEGACY OF THE BEAST Tour” has finally come to its full potential after accumulating the number of venues. This is the latest live album where you can fully experience the scene with a dynamic spectacle sound. In terms of pure audio, “KAUNAS 2022” still reigns on the throne, but this work goes up in terms of the experience and exhilaration of the real scene. This is the latest work that is soaked in our hearts because we failed to experience the “LEGACY OF THE BEAST Tour”. Please enjoy it carefully.
★ “Extra-thick audience recording of the Hyvinkää performance on June 4, 2022.
