    Your Entrance Music

    I’m not much of a rap fan other than early RunDMC but Root Down is catchy as hell. I only saw the Beasties once but they did play that song. Interesting aside, their set opened with samples of Tom Sawyer by Rush (my favorite band)...

    Poll: 2 Minutes to Midnight vs. The Wicker Man?

    2 Minutes. They both have all time opening riffs but I give the edge to 2M. Also the Wicker Man chorus is a bit clunky.

    What's the worst Maiden song where the songwriting credit only has (Harris)?

    The Assassin. It is comically terrible. That is all.

    No More Lies

    Love the intro, but after that it’s one of my least favorite on the album.

    Poll: The strongest 90s Maiden album

    I just straight up dislike No Prayer and FOTD - especially Bruce's vocals - so for me this is a contest between the 2 Blaze albums. X Factor has some very good music but as others have noted it's a bit too broody / depressing for my tastes. But I do love Judgement of Heaven. Anyway, my vote...

    No Prayer For The Dying Vs. The Final Frontier

    I'm one of those rare big fans of TFF. Especially the latter half.

    Brave New World Vs. Piece Of Mind

    I voted for Piece of Mind. BNW is a very consistent album - I think every song is good, some very good, but none of them strike me as great. POM hits that note repeatedly with Revelations, Die With Your Boots On, The Trooper and Still Life. I also very much like Where Eagles Dare, Sun and Steel...

    Fear Of The Dark Vs. The Book Of Souls

    Book of Souls by a mile for me. Fear is my least favorite IM album.

    Did any of the songs from The Book Of Souls enter your top 10 maiden songs list?

    1st time seeing this thread. I made a Top 20 and managed to narrow it down to a Top 15. The Red and the Black made the cut. Which is amazing to say about a song where I think the 1st 4:30 stinks. It should have been an instrumental. But the non-vocal parts are just that gloriously triumphant...

    The best five short rockers Maiden have done since 1990?

    I once did a similar exercise however I left out No Prayer for the Dying and Fear of the Dark as I don't like those albums. That being the case, here are the 5 minutes or less songs: Futureal 3:00 The Rainmaker 3:48 Wildest Dreams 3:52 The Fallen Angel 4:00 Days of Future Past 4:03 Man on the...

    Poll: Dance of Death vs. Hell on Earth?

    I tried to make a top 10 IM list about a year ago. I couldn’t do it, but I made a top 15. Both of these songs were on that list. But between the two He’ll On Earth is my favorite. It manages to spark emotions in a deeply poignant way.
