Guitarists Thomas Zwijsen and Ben Woods have launched a video for their flamenco-style version of Iron Maiden's Aces High. It's taken from the pair's Master Guitar Tour album.
The dynamic duo describe their cover as a "Nylon Maiden/Flametal version arranged for two Classical Fingerstyle / Spanish Flamenco guitars."
Zwijsen and Wood have racked up over 20,000,000 views on YouTube for their acoustic arrangements of famous rock and metal songs by bands like Maiden – including Zwijsen's version of Blood Brothers with vocals by former singer Blaze Bayley – plus Metallica, Judas Priest, Black Sabbath and more.
The pair become the latest in a long line of musicians to produce unusual variations of Aces High, including a folk version by Steve 'N' Seagulls and a take by Guy Fist produced using hand farts.
