The Iron Maiden appreciation thread
 

I'm too lazy to do much for my 1000th post but i'll atleast start up a thread on my favourite band and probably contribute a fair bit to it along the way so...

Maiden ey?
feckin great!

appreciate....

Consistently released solid albums throughout their entire career and still going strong. Probably one of the best bands in history.

That's what i'm talking about :) Bruce ****ingson or Paul Di'anno?

I think Bruce is the better vocalist all around, but I love their self titled so much that I want to say Paul.

Aye from a technical point of view Bruce is far better but Paul did the killers album, my favourite album by a long shot.

****, should have put a poll in.

maiden is a great band. power metal i believe

I love their first 2 albums with Di`anno anything after that doesn`t really get a listen.
Powerslave was the last thing they did that I can listen to , after that they became a bit too slick & muso like. I missed the raw edges they used to have.

i like... some of it

The first metal band I heard, Number of the Beast being my first metal album.

Not only are Maiden good, they also influenced a whole genre of metal, that I love. Power Metal has remained my favorite genre (although I listen to everything, actually), and Iron Maiden are the innovators.

Up the Irons!!
