Negative Positive
Title: solid effort with gem
Review: A solid effort here with a gem - it shows that there is still some magic left.Childhood's End, The Fugitive, Judas Be My Guide - these tracks hold up with any classic Maiden album.Afraid to Shoot Strangers starts off slow and initially did not grab my attention but as the song plays it finally hits its stride, although it takes 2:45 to get there.The title track 'Fear of the Dark' ranks as one of their finest songs, ever.Weekend Warrior, Wasting Love, and 'From Here to Eternity' are solid tracks. Apparition and 'Fear is the Key' are the weakest tracks on the album, enjoyable but not up to the classic Maiden standards fans have come to expect.
