Iron Maiden!

Recommended Posts

Just felt the urge to start a Maiden thread.

I loove this band! its my fav after GN'R, Queen and Aerosmith.

The thing I like most about themmust be their lyrics, (yes, I know Axl think their to political and that means I must mean it to, but I dont :) )

I love the way their so magic and epic.

Like "Rhimes Of The Ancient Mariner" Its like a fucking story!

My fav songs are "Seventh Son OF A Seventh Sonn", "Aces High", "Hallowed Be Thy Name" and "Fear Of The Dark".

My top 5 Maiden albums:

1. Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son

2. Powerlsave

3. A Matter Of Life And Death

4. Number Of The Beast

5. Piece Of Mind

rock3

Just watched their RIR 01' concert, and god damn it rocks!

Iron Maiden is fuckin' brilliant, I love the RiR III DVD. rock3

I'd rank the albums I own like this:

1. Brave New World (brilliant rock3 )

2. A Matter Of Life And Death

3. Dance Of Death

4. Fear Of The Dark

5. Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son

6. Piece Of Mind

7. Powerslave

8. Number Of The Beast

I love their newer stuff much more. Some of these songs are really epic. But also the old Maiden albums had amazing songs, like "Hallowed Be Thy Name" or "Rhime Of The Ancient Mariner". But Brave New World is just an amazing album. ;)

Favourite song:

Different World.

thats a killer song! amazing way to open the album, and its one of my favs on the album.

I must admit, I do also love "These Colours Don't Run"- only thing I dislike it track length on most of 'em. Would've been better to keep some of them short and sweet imho.

I must say I think the "fear of the dark" album was pretty bad.

The song however is genius.

I have no idea how Steve Harris come up with the lyrics. He must read alot

From wikipedia:

"The song is said to be about Harris' childhood fear of the dark."

And no way, the Fear Of The Dark album is amazing as I ranked it before, number 4 in my list. I love it. Amazing songs on this album.

Fear Of The Dark is different for Maiden, definitely. I don't think it was a bad album though. There's some kick ass tunes on it like Be Quick Or Be Dead (heaviest, fastest song Maiden ever did), Affraid To Shoot Strangers, Wasting Love, Weekend Warrior (football hooligans?), Judas My Guide.

Paul D'ianno was here a few days ago. Apparently he's really bad these days...

I didn't even go.

woah

Bruce is by fare the best frontman that has ever been in Maiden.

D'ianno was really good and everyhting, excellent voice, good stage presence, everything.

Only Bruce does what he did 100 times better

I'm a fan of all three Iron Maiden eras (Paul, Bruce, Blaze) but Bruce is my favourite of the lot. There's nothing I like more than epic music, so naturally Iron maiden (and Steve Harris in particular) does this for me every single time.

Favourite songs

Rime of the Ancient Mariner

Hallowed Be Thy Name

The Longest Day

To Tame A Land (underrated)

Alexander The Great (underrated as fuck)

1 Afraid to shoot Strangers

2 Fear of The dark

3 The Number of The Beast

4 Hallowed be Thy name

5 Run To The Hills/ Bring your Daughter....

Bruce bores me a bit. Paul was unique.

Maybe Paul would have bored you too if he had done 10 Maiden albums + the live ones.

There's nothing boring about my Bruce, but then again we can't all agree on everything

That's not why he bores me. He bores me because there's nothing really unique about him.
