This is great crossover concept, and for the most part sounds sweet. The only track that didnt really do much was Legowelts rendition of "Run to the Hills" which is one of THE Maiden tracks, but unfortunately is just semi-loopy techno. Maxx Klaxons cabaret-esque cover of "Die With Your Boots On" gets girls to take out the trash, and rub it all over their precious bodies. Thats how awesome it is.

Its also cool that Maiden like this album, and really I hope this kind of open-mindedness towards music continues. Because Maiden-kids+Electro-kinder= party central.
