The Chemical Wedding

The Chemical Wedding

Bruce Dickinson

The Chemical Wedding is a Heavy Metal album released in 1998 in collaboration with guitarist/producer Roy Z. The album draws some inspiration from the works of William Blake - of whom some paintings are featured in the artwork, as well as both sung and spoken excerpts from Blake's prophetic works - although the name of the album and its title track derive from the Rosicrucian manifest the Chymical Wedding of Christian Rosenkreutz. As with the previous album, it featured Iron Maiden guitarist Adrian Smith, former (and once again current) bandmate of Dickinson. Read more on Last.fm.
