But anyway Steve is the "boss" or leader of the band. He makes the main decisions regarding the band.

Who decided that he should stay in the band? Bruce or Steve?

Maybe a controversial statement here, but I think Janick is a redundant member of Iron Maiden. Maiden just don't need 3 guitarists and as a player he is simply not as good as Adrian and/or Dave.

I absolutely agree about Gangland and QFF. How about Heaven can wait? It's generally regarded as the least favorite from SIT by fans.

Man on the edge two tiers above Fear of the dark? That's controversial as hell.

OK, I won't deny that FOTD has a significant amount of filler but I still fail to see how The X Factor is better. The best X Factor track (Sign of the cross) just cannot touch the mighty title track FOTD and Afraid to shoot strangers is much better than all the other tracks on The X Factor. On...

I can't believe that X-Factor is leading here with 15 votes more than FOTD. I think FOTD is generally regarded as the better Maiden album and The X Factor is regarded as the bottom of the Maiden discography along with Virtual XI and No Prayer. It's really surprising for me that many people on...

Three iconic legendary British metal bands fronted by different frontmen. Which band with frontman would get your vote here and why?

So which anthemic Maiden tune do you prefer and why?

POM, no brainer. And I love BNW.

7th Son by a wide margin

Fear of the dark easily

Powerslave closely followed by Hallowed be thy name.

No contest for me. 1980-93 by far (but based on the material up to 7th Son specifically, NPFD was a huge letdown after SSoaSS and FOTD was not much better).

That's the only exception.

On BNW you have "Blood Brothers", it's so soft and melodic that I wouldn't call it a heavy metal song at all (I love this song btw). Also the title track is quite un-heavy for metal standards (and it's great btw).

To be honest, the last 3 Iron Maiden albums are the epitome of "Maiden by numbers" for me. TFF and Senjutsu are generally meh and TBOS is easily better but it's still "Maiden by numbers".

Maybe because it's mostly uninspired borefest?

I forgot: Back in Black by AC/DC Physical Graffiti by Led Zeppelin (LZ is among my favorite bands but I'd rank PG as #5 LZ album, it's not super consistent)
