Iron Maiden founder Steve Harris' debut solo/side project album entitled British Lion comprises of ten songs that Steve and his collaborators have been working on for the past few years between Iron Maiden tours and releases, it is an album that will surprise and delight music fans the world over. With a decidedly heavy rock-vibe this roaring debut paints with a full palette of sounds; brooding, melancholic, right-eously indignant and exuberantly heavy. With Kevin Shirley at the mixing helm – whose credits include Iron Maiden as well as Led Zeppelin, Journey and Rush among many others – this is an album to sink your teeth into. From the growling riffage of opening salvo This Is My God to the heavy forlorn balladry of follow-up Lost Worlds which showcases Richard Taylor's soaring vocals, it's clear that British Lion is an altogether different beast from Maiden. With British Lion, Steve steps out from Iron Maiden's illustrious shadow to present a different side of his musical visions.
