do they show based on an algorithm, or it's a manual choice? (if you don't mind me asking) I don't see the new Maiden today, for.ex...

It's sorted first by date, and then by album ID. So the main page list will almost always be populated by the first 20 upcoming albums to be added to MA, since they will have album IDs assigned earlier. For example, today (September 5), the first album listed is Mountain's Blood by Giant of the Mountain, which was added to MA on June 12. Iron Maiden's album presumably wasn't added to MA early enough in advance to be one of the first 20, but if you click "more..." you can see the entire list for all future dates.
