A New Era: Bruce Dickinson’s Long-Awaited Solo Album
Bruce Dickinson is set to release his seventh studio LP, titled “The Mandrake Project,” on March 1st. But that’s not all—this release will be accompanied by a full-blown tour and it’s already generating a lot of buzz among fans and critics alike.
Inspiration Strikes: The Meaning Behind “Rain On The Graves”
The second single from the album, “Rain On The Graves,” has already been creating a stir since its recent release. This theatrical masterpiece was inspired by Bruce’s visit to poet William Wordsworth’s grave in the Lake District. The heavy riffing song reflects on mortality and pays homage to the alleged deal blues musician Robert Johnson made with the devil in the 1930s.

“The Mandrake Project” isn’t just about the music. Bruce is also debuting an accompanying sci-fi comic book series, illustrated by Staz Johnson. This series tells a gripping tale of power, abuse, and a struggle for identity, adding another layer of depth to the already highly anticipated album.
