Iron Maiden's Somewhere Back in Time: The Best of 1980-1989 is heading to a double LP pressing, collecting 15 tracks from the decade that crowned the band heavy metal royalty.

Assembled in 2008 to accompany the tour of the same name, the compilation zeroes in on Maiden's most mythologized era, from the street-level snarl of their early records to the grand, galloping ambition of Powerslave and Seventh Son of a Seventh Son.

The cornerstones are all accounted for. "The Trooper" charges in on that famous twin-guitar gallop, and "Run to the Hills" remains a thundering singalong. "Hallowed Be Thy Name" builds from doom-laden calm into one of the great epics in metal, with Bruce Dickinson at full operatic stretch.

"2 Minutes to Midnight" and "Wasted Years" show off the band's knack for soaring melodic hooks, while "Can I Play with Madness" captures their late-decade polish. Live takes of "Aces High" and "Wrathchild" bottle the sheer force of Maiden on stage, with Churchill's wartime speech setting the scene.

For newcomers it will make a fine crash course, and for longtime fans it offers a well-paced ride through four sides of the songs that helped define a genre, sequenced to keep the adrenaline high from start to finish.
