What 1995 Iron Maiden album  graphically depicts the band's mascot, Eddie, being vivisected by machine?
The X Factor (album) The X Factor is the tenth studio album by English heavy metal band Iron Maiden, released on 2 October 1995 through EMI. It is the first of two albums by the band to include Blaze Bayley, formerly of Wolfsbane, as vocalist, replacing Bruce Dickinson who left the band following their previous tour to pursue a solo career. The album takes a darker tone than the band's first nine releases, due to the lyrics being based on personal issues surrounding Steve Harris at the time, who was in the midst of a divorce. This is reflected in the cover artwork, which graphically depicts the band's mascot, Eddie, being vivisected by machine.

It was recorded at Long Beach Arena, California and Hammersmith Odeon, London during the band's World Slavery Tour.
