No matter who they may have influenced, I've never cared for their music and found them to be rather cheesy. And

Trivium, Sum 41, 3 Inches Of Blood, Bullet For My Valentine, Dream Theater, Anthrax,

aren't exactly brilliant acts either. A no from me.

Those are some godawful bands right there. If it's true what you say about IM's influence on them then I almost want to vote 'no'.
But I can't because their albums through 1988 were such an important part of my life. Well, Somewhere in Time and 7th Son are pretty bad but I did like them as a kid and I can still easily listen to all of the previous albums. I can't say that I've even heard any of their music after that but I hope they didn't turn out as bad as, say Avenged Sevenfold. That would be such a sad ending for the once-great Iron Maiden..

Yes

HELL no. Can't stand this band. Everything about them reeks of rock cliche and stupidity.

Insane Guest · 03-31-2010, 06:02 PM

What? Come on people. A great band. Sure I hate half the band that they have inspired but have they not continued to expand metal. Please vote for them, not the other bands. And try to actually take a listen to them, you have to open to new music.

Because of this, a definite NO from me.
