Artistic titan and Iron Maiden mega-fan Dusty Peterson joins me to look back on Fear of the Dark which just celebrated its 30th anniversary yesterday. This album is a sleeper hit for me and undoubtedly one of my favorites even in spite of initial critical reaction when the record was released in 1992. This one is aging like a fine wine and the outpouring of love I've seen for this record as it turns three decades old has reassured me that my choice in putting this in my Mount Rushmore of Iron Maiden records is a solid one. PSA: I absentmindedly skipped over "Weekend Warrior" while going through all the tracks and I HAVE MAJOR REGRETS FOR THAT. I love that song and I absolutely wanted the chance to talk about football hooliganism in the UK. Another time, perhaps. What's your favorite track on this timeless album?
