Food for Thought is an Iron Maiden tribute album with a slightly different take on the band's music. It was released in July 2005^[1] after having been worked on for two years by Swedes Henrik Johansson and Mattias Reinholdsson. It features mainly Johansson and Reinholdsson doing different genre versions of Iron Maiden songs with contributions from musician friends and acquaintances.
