===Experimentation (1986–1989)===

Returning from their time off, the band adopted a different style for their 1986 studio album, entitled ''[[Somewhere in Time (Iron Maiden album)|Somewhere in Time]]'', featuring, for the first time in the band's history, [[synthesiser|synthesised]] bass and guitars to add textures and layers to the sound.<ref name="amg_somewhereintime">{{cite web|url={{Allmusic|class=album|id=r9916|pure_url=yes}}|title=Iron Maiden - ''Somewhere in Time'' – Review|accessdate=12 October 2008|author=Steve Huey|publisher=[[AllMusic]]|year=2008}}</ref> The release charted well across the world, particularly with the single "[[Wasted Years]]", but notably included no writing credits from lead singer [[Bruce Dickinson]], whose material was rejected by the rest of the band.{{sfn|Wall|2004|p=260}} While Dickinson was focused on his own music, guitarist Adrian Smith, who typically collaborated with the vocalist, was "left to [his] own devices" and began writing songs on his own, coming up with "Wasted Years", "Sea of Madness", and "[[Stranger in a Strange Land (song)|Stranger in a Strange Land]]",{{sfn|Wall|2004|p=261}} the last of which would be the album's second single.{{sfn|Wall|2004|pp=260}}

 

 

===Upheaval (1989–1994)===

During another break in 1989, guitarist Adrian Smith released a solo album with his band [[ASAP (band)|ASAP]], entitled ''[[Silver and Gold (ASAP album)|Silver and Gold]]'',{{sfn|Wall|2004|p=273}} and vocalist Bruce Dickinson began work on a solo album with former [[Gillan]] guitarist [[Janick Gers]], releasing ''[[Tattooed Millionaire]]'' in 1990,{{sfn|Wall|2004|p=281}} followed by a tour.{{sfn|Wall|2004|p=285}} At the same time, to mark the band's ten-year recording anniversary, Iron Maiden released ''[[The First Ten Years]]'', a series of ten CDs and double [[12"|12" vinyl]]. Between 24 February and 28 April 1990, the individual parts were released one-by-one, each containing two of Iron Maiden's singles, including the original B-sides.

 

 

===Blaze Bayley era, ''The X Factor'' and ''Virtual XI'' (1994–1999)===

In 1994, the band listened to hundreds of tapes sent in by vocalists before convincing [[Blaze Bayley]], formerly of the band [[Wolfsbane (band)|Wolfsbane]] who had supported Iron Maiden in 1990, to audition for them.{{sfn|Wall|2004|p=301}} Bayley had a different vocal style from his predecessor, which ultimately received a mixed reception among fans.<ref>{{cite web | url = http://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/8519/Iron-Maiden-The-X-Factor/ | title = Iron Maiden: ''The X Factor'' (Review) | last = Stagno | first = Mike | date = 2 August 2006 | accessdate = 28 February 2012 | publisher = [[Sputnikmusic]] | quote = ...the often criticised Blaze Bayley himself.

===''Dance of Death'' and ''A Matter of Life and Death'' (2003–2007)===

Following their [[Give Me Ed... 'Til I'm Dead Tour]] in the summer of 2003, Iron Maiden released ''[[Dance of Death (album)|Dance of Death]]'', their thirteenth studio album, which was met by worldwide critical and commercial success.{{sfn|Wall|2004|p=368}} Produced by Kevin Shirley, now the band's regular producer, many critics also felt that this release matched up to their earlier efforts, such as ''Killers'', ''Piece of Mind'' and ''The Number of the Beast''.{{sfn|Wall|2004|p=369}} As usual, historical and literary references were present, with "Montségur" in particular being about the [[Catharism|Cathar]] stronghold conquered in 1244,{{sfn|Wall|2004|p=373}} and "Paschendale" relating to [[Battle of Passchendaele|the significant battle]] which took place during [[World War I|The First World War]].{{sfn|Wall|2004|p=375}}

 

 

===Somewhere Back in Time World Tour and ''Flight 666'' (2007–2009)===

Iron Maiden's [[mascot]], [[Eddie the Head|Eddie]], is a perennial fixture in the band's science fiction and horror-influenced album cover art, as well as in [[concert|live]] shows.{{sfn|Wall|2004|p=133}} Originally a papier-mâché mask incorporated in their backdrop which would squirt fake blood during their live shows,{{sfn|Wall|2004|p=62}} the name would be transferred to the character featured in the band's debut album cover, created by [[Derek Riggs]].{{sfn|Wall|2004|p=136}} Eddie was painted exclusively by Riggs until 1992, at which point the band began using artwork from numerous other artists as well, including [[Melvyn Grant]].{{sfn|Wall|2004|p=289}} Eddie is also featured in the band's [[first-person shooter]] video game, ''[[Ed Hunter]]'',<ref>{{cite journal | title = Bullet in the Head | journal = [[Metal Hammer]] presents: Iron Maiden 30 Years of Metal Mayhem | year = 2005 | first = Martin | last = Popoff | authorlink = Martin Popoff | page = 43| id = }}</ref> as well as numerous t-shirts, posters and other band-related merchandise.{{sfn|Wall|2004|p=133}} In 2008, he was awarded the "Icon Award" at the ''[[Metal Hammer]]'' Golden Gods,<ref name="MH 2008"/> while [[Gibson Guitar Corporation|Gibson.com]] describes him as "the most recognizable metal icon in the world and one of the most versatile too."<ref>{{cite web | url = http://www2.gibson.com/News-Lifestyle/Features/en-us/abriefhistoryofheavymetal.aspx | title = Heavy Metal's Most Savage Mascots! | last = Lefkove | first = Aaron | date = 5 June 2008 | accessdate = 23 September 2011 | publisher = [[Gibson Guitar Corporation|Gibson.com]]}}</ref>

 

Iron Maiden's distinct logo has adorned all of the band's releases since their debut; the typeface originates with Vic Fair's poster design for 1976 science fiction film, [[The Man Who Fell to Earth (film)|The Man Who Fell To Earth]],<ref>{{cite web|author=Name (required) |url=http://meansheets.com/2010/03/09/fair-play/ |title=Fair Play " Meansheets – Vintage Movie Posters |publisher=Meansheets.com |date=9 March 2010 |accessdate=9 July 2011}}</ref> although Steve Harris claims that he designed it himself, utilising his abilities as an architectural draughtsman.<ref>{{cite book | title = Iron Maiden: In Profile | chapter = Part 2: Groundwork| year= 1998 | publisher = [[EMI]]}}</ref>

 

==Special charter==

 

In October 2007, Iron Maiden commissioned an [[Astraeus Airlines]] 757 as transport for their '[[Somewhere Back in Time World Tour]]' in 2008.<ref name=plane/> Lead singer Bruce Dickinson explained the logic behind the charter in 2007:<ref name=plane>{{cite web | url = http://www.metalstorm.net/events/news_comments.php?news_id=5589&print_page=yes | title = Iron Maiden - More Somewhere Back In Time World Tour Dates | date = 1 November 2007 | accessdate = 20 November 2011 | publisher = [[Metal Storm (webzine)|Metal Storm]]}}</ref> ''<blockquote>"Looking at the list of places we would like to play we have always had problems joining up the dots. With sea containers in various places it slows down the whole touring process, which is fine if you want a holiday but not if you want to play. It's great to see places but we don't want to sit around for a week waiting for gear to get from, say, Australia to South America, so this way we can get to more fans in more places en route in the same time period"''</blockquote>''

 

The aircraft, named "Ed Force One" after a competition on the band's website,<ref name="name plane">{{cite web | url = http://www.undercover.fm/news/3803-iron-maiden-reveal-ed-force-one | title = Iron Maiden Reveal Ed Force One | last = Cashmere | first = Tim | date = 15 January 2008 | accessdate = 20 November 2011 | publisher = Undercover FM}}</ref> was flown by Dickinson as he was also a commercial airline pilot for Astraeus. The aeroplane was converted into a [[combi aircraft|combi]] configuration and repainted with a special Iron Maiden livery, along with a list of that year's tour dates.<ref name=plane/> According to Dickinson, Astraeus decided to retain the Iron Maiden artwork when it returned to normal charter service after receiving positive feedback from customers, but had to remove the decals after passengers in Africa refused to board the plane, claiming it to be possessed by evil spirits.<ref name=livery>{{cite web | url = http://www.blabbermouth.net/news.aspx?mode=Article&newsitemID=100396 | title = Iron Maiden Frontman Issues 'Bruce Air' Update | date = 7 July 2008 | accessdate = 20 November 2011 | publisher = [[Blabbermouth.net]]}}</ref>
