Iron Maiden - Hell On Earth (Official Audio) 

What a masterpiece !! Who still listening at 2024?

Interrupting this song by commercial should be a crime.

I still remember the first time I heard this song. It was September of 2021 and we were traveling as a family to the ranch, seemingly in the middle of nowhere in Mexico. We started playing Senjutsu to finish it as we arrived at the ranch just right after midnight. The song began to play just as we left the highway and entered a dirt road connected to the ranch. All five of us fell into a deep silence in the middle of nowhere, in complete darkness, with no sound but the notes of this melody. As the song ended, my father broke the silence with a simple "wow." I nodded in agreement. As we arrived, I tried to remember the first time I listened to Iron Maiden. My memories of a Sunday morning when I was around 10 years old (Now I am 30), sitting in the backyard after breakfast, came flooding back. I recall my dad turning on the CD player and listening to "Running Free." and since then, it started being my favorite band. The band had evolved since then, and they aged very well. I thought that If Iron Maiden never released another album, this song would be the perfect way to conclude almost 50 years of career.

imagine being a 46 years old band and still being able to release that kind of music. Absolutely amazing

For me, The Best Song of the Album.

I am 54 years old, I have been listening to these legends since their first album. Two weeks ago, I enjoyed a concert with my daughters. I'm so rich!

There are those who say Maiden's songs are too long. Phantom of the Opera was long on their debut and many classics are long as well. We should celebrate all the songs and albums they release. One day there will not be anything new to listen to. Anyone agree? Love Maiden from early 80's til today and tomorrow.

This is not Hell on Earth. This is the 8th Wonder on Earth. 2:15-5:45 ❤❤❤

1. This song is so immensely beautiful, haunting, powerful, and phenomenal. 2. I believe they have at least one more album in them. 3. Even if they don't, if this was the final track they ever recorded, I can be at peace with it.

Lost in anger. Life in danger. The bite in his voice when he sings this. The forlorn harmony that comes after. This is the peak of so many moments in life

iron maiden is the only band that can make a song longer than 10 minutes and somehow still make it feel too short.

2 years and this song is already a maiden classic. 🤗

It should be illegal to throw ads in the middle of songs, RU-vid. It should be illegal. This is a masterpiece edit - in reading some of these replies, I have to admit it must be quite a privilege to be able to carry your record player and your CD player with you everywhere you go! Despite the fact that I bought the CD, I still have to stream it. Some people are so lucky….

My younger brother passed away last week and this reminded me of him so much, he would have loved this song so much he was a big maiden fan. RIP Brother until we meet again, I wish you could be here to enjoy all the new music that's to come. Sleep well. EDIT: Thank you all so much for the kind words and support. Maiden fans are truly amazing people. Thank you for making the world feel a little less dark my brother would be so happy to see the messages.

Some people here don't understand, that a sign of a group such brilliant as Iron Maiden is, that they will never remain stuck with something. They evolve. So don't seek the 80's, this ist '21 (and further), and they still remain a class for their own - or, as I read otherwhere: this is not Heavy Metal, this is Iron Maiden!

So many songs on this album make me cry - they are pure masterpieces, from a band that has endured so many music industry fads and changes for decades, but has always remained true and steadfast to themselves and us fans. There will never be another band like Iron Maiden again in our lifetimes.

I love how Eddy blinks every couple of seconds.

The year was 1980. I was just on the verge of becoming a teenager. I had $10 of grass cutting money in my pocket and was heading to the record store to see if there was a new Black Sabbath album I could add to my sparse collection. I knew the store well, I had practically worn a path to the “Heavy Metal” section. As I flipped through the album covers, I didn’t find anything that I didn’t already own from BS., and I kept on flipping. Then, suddenly I got by the Iron Butterfly section and there, staring at me with the most gruesome, soul ripping stare, was Eddie. My first reaction was, “wow, that’ll piss Mom off”. The price was good , $9.99 iirc, and the owner knew me as a steady customer and let the taxes slide. I practically ran home to put my new find on the record player. From the very first bars of Prowler, I knew I was hooked! Here we are 40yrs later and I’m still as much of a hardcore fan as I ever was! As I am writing this my Mom is in a hospital room, holding my Father’s hand as he slips the bonds of this life. It has been a brutal 11 month battle, watching my Dad try to recover from falling off the shed and breaking his neck. But, he will soon be out of pain and resting peacefully. I just know in my heart that Clive is there with a pair of sticks, holding a guitar for my Dad. Rock in Peace Dad, I love you!! And as for my Mom, when she saw Eddie on my album cover, all she said was “he looks like he needs a good meal, and a bit of a haircut.”God bless’r. Thank you for helping me through this darkest hour. I haven’t needed the Iron’s more!! UP THE IRONS \m/, ,\m/ (I know this was a long one, and if you made it to the end, drop what you are doing and go tell whomever you have in your life that you love them, before you can’t anymore).

Why aren’t they adding this to their set list in this tour?! It’s easily the best song on the album and I think I speak for everyone in saying that this needs to be heard live!!

IRON MAIDEN!! By far the BIGGEST group in HEAVY METAL history...

Steve Harris, you’re a genius. What a melodic masterpiece. Iron Maiden at its finest.

There is only one Steve Harris. What an icon.

Long live Iron Maiden. Simply the greatest music on Earth. Up the Irons for life

This song is the most amazing thing I've ever heard to see it live was such a privilege, thanks to Bruce,Steve,Adrian,Dave,jannick and Nicko for making Manchester future past tour the best night of my life . We recorded the full show to relive the memory.

Iron Maiden will not even have a slightest idea that i exist in this world. But I'm so proud of them. They teach us the real meaning of "Age is just a number". Came together as a band and now leaving a legacy. Up the irons.

This was my first Iron Maiden experience. It's official. I'm hooked.

(Lyrics) Beginning of a sunrise bores a big hole in the sky Not to reason why that armed children are in this world And fighting in the name of God's way Mourning bleak and utter waste The vanity of the world is assured now Prey upon the weak no more The spirits of those who are gone Propaganda of the battles That are lost or won And count your blessings still alive Of those who managed to survive Inside oblivion of that hell on Earth All you have been, all you have seen Lost in somewhere in your dreams How the angels they have fallen All is nothing what it seems And the voices that you hear now And the voices in your head Now are thinking of a lifetime You can never feel again I wish I could go back I'll never be the same again Bled for all upon this hell on Earth And when I leave this world I hope to see you all again On the other side of hell on Earth Upon the eyes of good I'm following the light again In between the dark of hell on Earth On the other side, I'll see again in heaven So far away from this hell on Earth You dance on the graves who bled for us Do you really think they'll come for us? Knowledge and virtue, taken by lust Live on the edge of those that you trust You think that you have all the answers for all In your arrogant way only one way to fall Burning a lamp that is fire in your hands Taking you further from these lands Love in anger, life in danger Lost in anger, life in danger Love in anger, life in danger Lost in anger, life in danger UP THE IRONS!!!!!

no matter how much hate he gets, Janick is an absolutely amazing guitarist and musician, and his solo on this song perfectly proves it

Steve Harris has out done himself on this album, his best writing in years.

Bruce is a legend, battled and overcame throat cancer to come back and deliver this masterpiece. One of his best vocal performances ever, and the band hasn't lost a step. Let's hope this isn't their final song, but if it is what a way to go out

Iron Maiden live in another dimension. Not affected by time. These guys are something rare. Rare for a band to release a late album that could be their best.

4:36 pure bliss 6:10 ecstasy 8:23 eargasm

I can´t believe that some guys at 60´s can give us a song and an album like this. I'am crying while i am writing this. Unfortunately, they are undoubtly at the end of their glorious career, only because the time. I'd just want to hug you all and say thank you for company in variest moments of my life. I hope for one more album, if it is possible. If it is not, thank you all once again. My kids will keep the legacy, wheter they like or like. There is no option. Greetings from Brazil!

[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] Beginning of a sunrise Bores a big hole in the sky Not to reason why that Armed children are in this world And fighting in the name of god's way Mourning bleak and utter waste The vanity of the world is assured now [Verse 2] Prey upon the weak no more The spirits of those who are gone Propaganda of the battles That are lost or won And count your blessings still alive Of those who managed to survive Inside oblivion of that hell on earth [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] All you have been, all you have seen Lost in somewhere in your dreams How the angels they have fallen All is nothing what it seems [Verse 4] In the voices that you hear now In the voices in your head Now are thinking of a lifetime You can never feel again [Verse 5] I wish I could go back Will never be the same again Bled for all upon this hell on earth And when I leave this world I hope to see you all again On the other side of hell on earth [Verse 6] Upon the eyes of good I'm following the light again In between the dark of hell on earth On the other side I'll see again heaven So far away from this hell on earth [Guitar Solo] [Instrumental Break] [Verse 7] You dance on the graves who bled for us Do you really think they'll come for us Knowledge and virtue taken by lust Live on the edge of those that you trust [Verse 8] You think that you have all the answers for all In your arrogant way only one way to fall Burning a lamp that is fire in your hands Taking you further from these lands [Bridge] Love in anger, life in danger Lost in anger, life in danger [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] Love in anger, life in danger Lost in anger, life in danger

Play. This. Live. Best song on the whole album.

9:04 one of the most beautiful guitar melodies i ever heard

Maiden fans are a different breed. I know, I am one. I my darkest moments on this earth, I listened to Maiden. In my best moments, they were playing. In the year of turmoil we've all had, they were my constant soundtrack. As a kid, not knowing how the world worked, the idea of liking a band so much was weird. It's been 20 years now, and Iron Maiden have been the only constant in my life, and I know that's true for countless others. Hell on Earth is almost a summation of everything they, and we, stand for. TL/DR: great song.

I am 44 years old, have been listening to maiden since I was 6 years old in Lebanon thanks to my uncle who is a maiden diehard fan, I migrated to the states and saw them 3 times with my uncle in New York. They are by far the best band in the world that has been around for that much time. And this epic song brings everything together.

The worst thing about this song is that it ends

Now I'm 15 years old. My dad is a fan of Iron Maiden for a long time. He always listened to IM when we were in the car. I really enjoy Iron Maiden's music 🤘

nonstrop repeat 5:19 and I'm crying every time I hear this chorus masterpiece: "I wish I could go back I'll never be the same again Bled for all upon this hell on Earth And when I leave this world I hope to see you all again On the other side of hell on Earth Upon the eyes of good I'm following the light again In between the dark of hell on Earth On the other side, I'll see again in heaven So far away from this hell on Earth"

Occasionally, a band writes a masterpiece that just has that "last song of the night" feel. It just soars, musically and lyrically. It makes you think about life. It touches your heart. It makes you feel angry, frustrated, sad, hopeful, proud. It makes you feel like you're flying. It makes you feel alive. Iron Maiden writes all their songs like that.

This is the most powerful song I've ever heard in my life. I cannot express in words how this song touches me. Thank you so much for your music. God bless you 🙏

Me after listening to When the Wild Wind Blows in 2010: This is it, the best ending to an album I've ever heard. Me after listening to Empire of the Clouds in 2015: Never mind, THIS is it, the best ending to an album I've ever heard. Me after listening to Hell on Earth now: Okay never mind, THIS is--

This is just everything that makes 21st Century Maiden so f*cking good. Steve Harris is the man. Bruce's voice when he sings "Love in anger, life in danger"... Just too good.

This album will be iconic after 30 years you 'll see

I just wanted to say "Thank you" to the greatest band ever. Masters making masterpiece music. 1000s of emotions with this song. This masterpiece will stay alive till the end of the world

A year and four months later, and I still get emotional listening to this song. I was just blown away the first time I heard it. Everything about it is a masterpiece - the intro has a way of hypnotizing me, Bruce’s vocals are so full of raw emotion and anger (“love in ANGER,”) the guitar solos are just stunning (I literally gasped in shock the first time I heard Dave’s solo,) and the gorgeous guitar harmonies. This song doesn’t get old no matter how many times I hear it. This isn’t just my favorite song on the album, but my favorite Maiden song of all time.

I thought today was just going to be a boring regular Friday. You say, "Iron Maiden's new album is out?" Someone's taking the day off to just listen to this album all day. UP THE IRONS!

In my 50's now and still feel emotional listening to my favourite band. Iron Maiden forever!!! I can't stop crying. What a music.... Thank you Iron Maiden.

Fun fact: no one will ever make such beautiful and meaningful songs like heavy metal bands

This song is already a classic. Up there with Ancient Mariner and The Trooper

This track is such a journey into another world. The Maidenverse! UP THE IRONS

The entire album is great, but if I had to choose my top 3, it would probably be: 1. Hell on Earth 2. The Parchment 3. Stratego

This right here is the reason why IRON MAIDEN is my favorite band of all time. Up The Irons 🤘

This is hands down one of the greatest Maiden album closers. It feels worthy to be their final song, a culmination of all maiden has become

I'm 59 yrs old listened to maiden from their beginning. Their music's not quite heavy but damn I love this. This is iron that will never rust away. Still the greatest metal band there ever was.

When i heard the iron maiden first album i was a young man full of hopes and dreams now i am a proud parent who s listening maiden together with my two daughyers

I'm 25, my father made me listen to Iron maiden since i was a baby and i still love it to this day and will love it for the rest of my life. Thank you dad.

There is one thing that Iron Maiden can't do...write a bad song. I consider myself fortunate to have been alive to witness their awesomeness. THANK YOU Iron Maiden for all the years of incredible music and memories!

Tears in my eyes, Why Steve? Im 40 years old , I must not crying in front of my son!! Up the irons from Greece 🇬🇷

Without a doubt, one of the greatest songs Iron Maiden have ever created...

I discovered this masterpiece a couple of months ago and it reminds me of my grandpa. He had been suffering from dementia for over 8 years and passed away at 74 on January 26 this year. He was a very, very important person in my life. I think of him every day and it breaks my heart that I will never see him again. Iron Maiden has made a huge impact on me recently and I know it's not only on me, but every Iron Maiden fan in the entire world. Lots of love to everyone reading this comment, to Bruce, Nicko, Steve, Adrian, Dave and Janick for making the greatest music of all time, and the guys who are working for Iron Maiden (producers, flight attendants, etc.), from the bottom of my heart.

Don't know about you guys, but I find the ending part incredibly sad. I mean, sadness is not an uncommon emotion in many of Maiden's songs, but this one just hits differently. Like a gut punch...I don't even know how to express it, but that semi-abrupt cut from energetic part into coda is just so harrowing, that many times it brought tears to my eyes (still does). Kind of like a sudden loss of a dear person. None of their album/song endings hit me this hard. I absolutely adore Senjutsu...but every time I listen to it, I have to emotionally prepare for the ending. The whole album is like an epic journey with a dear person who passes away at the very end, leaving you confused in your loneliness. I've been the fan of Iron Maiden for over two decades, but this is absolutely the darkest and saddest ending to any of their works.

07:43 - just wow. I was introduced to Maiden by my cousin Chris way back in the 80's. Chris was taken from us tragically so young by cancer but i'll never forget and i'll always have a special place for Maiden too. I just know Chris would love this track too. Thank you Maiden. Respect. RIP Chris x

One of the greatest songs in metal history. After almost 50 years of existence, Maiden comes up with something of this magnitude. Uncomparable in music history

I don't know of any other band from the 80's that is putting out music that becomes some of their biggest hits. That is absolutely amazing to me.

I'm an Iron Maiden fan for a very long time. I though their best years were behind them. I've never thought they would record the best song in their career in 2021. But they did it. This is my favourite IM song.

I HOPE THIS GENERATION UNDERSTANDS WHAT WE ARE WITNESSING HERE. THIS IS A LEGENDARY ALBUM THAT WILL LIVE ON FOR GENERATIONS, LIKE NUMBER OF THE BEAST AND SEVENTH SON OF A SEVENTH SON. WE ARE WITNESSING AN ACTUAL TIME CAPSULE. THIS ALBUM IS A MASTERPIECE.

They should play When the Wild Wind Blows and, immediatly after, Hell on Earth when they tour. This is like a spiritual successor.

I've listened to iron maiden my entire life of 59 years this album blew my mind.UP THE IRONS FOREVER!!!

When I was little my sister played Iron Maiden through the years it became her most beloved band have tattoos of them all the songs know it word by word After I grew up it came to me as well why this band is one of the best everything is happening with me now and I understand my bigger sister now Bless all of Iron Maiden’s music and all of its fans. 🇧🇬

I dont know about you guys, but this song has entered into my Maiden top 10 songs ever.

Hell on Earth is a piece that lasts 11.19 minutes and not a second is left over. Time passes, you will not look at the clock to know when it is over, but you will be wishing it never ends. Because it will raise your mood; because it is epic; it is melodic and triumphant. You were born to win! The melody pauses and speeds up when appropriate: "love in anger, life in danger" "love with anger, life in danger". It is the best conclusion for Senjutsu. It is reminiscent of The Final Frontier, "When the Wind Blows." But it is not a rehash. It's new, it's original and authentic from minute one.

I just turned 18 and man. This album has me thinking I’m living in the wrong era. Albums now are nothing like this, and this song alone blows all the mainstream crap today out of the water. 3 10 minute+ songs that are beautifully constructed and have so much energy for their age, an amazing theme, and structure related to the 80s is something I didn't know I needed. No other artists can make masterpieces like this 40+ years into their career and never stop. This album has made my life so much better. Thank you maiden, you guys are the best.

Iron maiden you are the best rock band of all times.

Imagine how wild the crowd will go when this song is played live!! Especially when the drums and the melody kicks in!! I can't wait to see this performed live.

This song is the best song of an absolutely magnificent album…Also this song is the proof that Iron Maiden are the best Heavy Metal band in the world…And that’s it.

I love it! I'm 12 but I listen music like this, thenks to iron maiden for this incredible song 😭 metal never dies 🤟

I am proud of Maiden as my favorite band. They never gave up and they always perform the best they can every show.

This truly is the instant classic of the album just like Red and Black was on Book of Souls

My lads are back! A 51 yo Soviet era born bloke who used to listen to IM through bootleggers in the 80's.. Shedding tears at the moment.... True British, and true masterpiece as always! Up the British Pirates!

Steve Harris is THE MAN. Incredible masterpiece.

This song is exceptional

And this is how Mr. Steve Harris says to all of us, "WE ARE BLOOD BROTHERS", using a different song.

Iron maiden is not just a rock band they are musical prophets.!!

Iron Maiden, Bruce Dickinson, Dave Murray, Nicko Mc brain , Steve Harris, Adrian Smith and Janick Gers they are the Gods and Angels of Heavy Metal, Up the Irons ☠️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

As much as we love Bruce, Nicko, Dave, Adrian and Janick... When everything comes around it's Steve that rides the train. It's his band, it's his vision that has finally come full circle, and he once again has proved his immortal genius to the world with not only 1 but 4 immortal pieces of music. Thank you Steve for creating this band and giving us all this incredible music for all these years. Our praise can never be enough! 🙏

Imagine this song being their last ever, that's pure magic, a great conclusion. I want of course another album in the future, for the moment let's appreciate this one! Cheers from France

My cousin loved this band, he passed recently due to heart complications, about one week after the album came out. his mom told me about this album and goddamn it do I feel like he would love to have listened to every song a thousand more times. Guess it's my job now to do it for him, I love you Iñaki ❤️❤️

Iron Maiden is a genre on its own. There is no band that sounds like it. There are other bands which play more complicated songs than maiden in terms of technique but maiden has this epic storytelling and intertwined themes which make it special.

this is already one of the all time great IRON MAIDEN songs ever written

Steve Harris must go down as one of the greatest songwriters in all of Rock and Metal. The quality of his music has been so consistent for over 40 years now. How many bands are still recording some of their best work 46 years after they were formed?

I wish they would do a concert tour and play this whole album!! They could throw in a couple other songs if they had time. Up The Irons!!! This album is a masterpiece! Long live Maiden!!!

If this was the last song on the last album Iron Maiden ever wrote I'd feel contented, it feels like they're melodically galloping off into the sunset in true Maiden fashion. Up the Irons!! 😎🤘

This is one of the best Songs I’ve ever heard. Another Masterpiece from the best band of all time. Up The Irons 🤘

I love this song. The melody, the vocals, the solo parts, the atmosphere, the feels. I just feel warm and happy inside thanks to Iron Maiden. With everything what's happening around us I'm just lucky enough to take a moment and appreciate this wonderful piece of music. Thank you Iron Maiden!

One of the best songs of their new album but also one of the best of their hole discography!It s just magic! IRON MAIDEN for ever!!!!!!!

The way he sings the "Love in anger" bit is absolutely captivating and mesmerizing

I can't stop listening to this song. WTF?
