Iron Maiden announce new album details; release new track

Iron Maiden have announced full details of their forthcoming new album 'The Final Frontier'.

The metal veterans are set to release their 15th studio album in the UK on August 16, and are offering fans a taster with new download 'El Dorado', which is available through their official site ironmaiden.com or below.

"'El Dorado' is a preview of the forthcoming studio album," singer Bruce Dickinson explained. "As we will be including it in the set of our 'Final Frontier World Tour', we thought it would be great to thank all our fans and get them into 'The Final Frontier' mood by giving them this song upfront of the tour and album release."

The LP, which saw the band team up with long-time producer Kevin "Caveman" Shirley in early 2010 at Compass Point Studios, Nassau before moving to LA, includes 10 tracks, and features artwork by Melvyn Grant.

The artwork (pictured in the player) features their trademark mascot Eddie surrounded by skeletons in space suits as he rips his way through a spaceship.
