As they open their A MATTER OF LIFE AND DEATH world Tour in America today, Iron Maiden announce DIFFERENT WORLD as their next single to be released as a very special tour Souvenir in Europe, with exclusive new B sides which were recorded at the end of the album session at Sarm West Studios in London. Three spectacular formats will be released in Canada, The UK and Europe – release date to be confirmed nearer the European tour.

Meanwhile, for the first time ever there will be a commercial single release in America, and Sanctuary Records US are to release Different World on 14th November featuring Radio 1 Zane Lowe’s Legends Session of ‘Hallowed Be Thy Name’ and ‘The Trooper’ as B sides.
