IRON MAIDEN Contributes New Song To 'Downhill Jam' Video Game

August 10, 2006

IRON MAIDEN has contributed one of the tracks from their upcoming "A Matter of Life and Death" album, "Different World", to the Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam video game. The title is the first downhill skateboard racing game based on the wildly popular Tony Hawk franchise and will be released by Activision in the fall for the Wii, Nintendo DS, and Game Boy Advance.

North American residents can pre-order the new IRON MAIDEN CD, "A Matter of Life and Death", as a CD or iPod-friendly digital download for only $9.99 — or $14.99 with a limited-edition t-shirt. Fans purchasing the release will also be able to buy tickets to the band's upcoming October U.S. tour run in advance of the general public on-sale date of August 12.

The band's recently announced North American arena tour will be the only U.S. dates in support of "A Matter of Life and Death".

"A Matter of Life and Death" is scheduled for release on September 5 via Sanctuary.
