Root Of All Evil?

Metallicat180 · February 21st, 2008, 06:30 PM

I was looking up something on Wikipedia tonight and randomly decided to put The Iron Maidens into the search to see if anything would come up. This page did - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Iron_Maidens and at the bottom of the second paragraph in the background section it says, "2008 brings Root Of All Evil, a 4 song EP on their Japanese label Powerslave Records."

Is this just a renamed version of the Route 666 ep or something new?? Cos in the discography it's credited to 2007.

メイデンズ, release does4 tuneentering EP "Root Of All Evil" on 2008 April 23rd. As for this EP, unique EP. It is the cover tune of Iron Maiden, but インストゥルメンタル, acoustic and disco beat version are included. As for CD design, the prominent artist of the jacket design of Iron Maiden,as for DerekRiggs and how explanation, it is the schedule where Paul Dianno of the memberof the origin Iron Maiden is written.

1. Transylvania (インストゥルメンタル)
2. The Evil That Men Do

Jim

thank you for translation

but,uhh.....in Japanese written only"disco beat"...no other information.
so,I think translation is right(but it can't translate"Maidens" and "instrumental").

there's no sample on webshop(HMV or Amazon),so just wait and see...
I'm waiting for the information from Maidens!

Hopefully the management of Slayer will be OK with using this title!
