Iron Maiden complete work on new album

It has been confirmed that Iron Maiden have just completed work on their brand new album. This new album, their first since 2006's killer 'A Matter Of Life And Death', has seen the band take refuge in the Bahamas with producer Kevin Shirley.

A post on Shirley's personal website runs: "There's still work to do, but the band portion is complete and in the can, so to speak."
