    IRON MAIDEN SURVIVOR #7: Results -> Hallowed Be Thy Name wins for the 6th time!

    For Hallowed, half the lyrics are plagerised and the solo is rather short and simplistic. For Powerslave, totally original and the solo totally epic. This contest isn't even close.

    If Maiden played a sixth Blaze era song live with Bruce?

    I have heard this before, and because of people saying this I have listened to Bruce and Blaze versions side by side. There is no truth at all to the claim. Bruce's version is easily better. It's not even close.

    If Maiden played a sixth Blaze era song live with Bruce?

    X Factor the drum sound is horrible, just horrible, doesn't sound like drums, more like slapping a jandle on concrete. The volume contrast is horrible, really low volume and then really high. I need to reach for the volume button just to hear parts and then race for the volume again to not blow...

    If Maiden played a sixth Blaze era song live with Bruce?

    Some things should be left in the past, just a bad dream. I'm glad they didn't continue with Sign of the Cross live. Don't waste time on bad music. There is no reason at all to play Blaze era Maiden. There are so many other great songs that don't get played live that are thousands of times...

    The Future Past tour 2023

    Where do people get this from. DOTC and The Clansman sound nothing alike.

    The Future Past tour 2023

    No idea why there is so much hate here for DOTC. It's a really good song, really good.

    Metallica

    I can't think of any album ever recorded in the history of humanity that isn't better than St Anger.

    Metallica

    Of all the things to not like an album on. I mean, the music is what matters, who gives a toss about what the picture is on the album cover. And really, if you don't like the length of an album, I mean, pick a couple of songs, put them aside, and listen to them in a couple of years, pretend an...

    Metallica

    The intro sounds a little like spit out the bone, the rest sounds like something from garage days, but with load/reload tones on vocals and guitars. I've grown really bored and tired of Metallica, but still I check out their new albums to see if anything different comes up. I haven't bothered...

    Metallica

    I finally found a song on this album that I like parts of. Mostly when I listen to new (anything after AJFA) Metallica nowadays, I struggle to listen all the way through a song. I typically listen for about 20-30 seconds and then turn it off. Hardwired to self destruct was listenable and...

    Senjutsu's album review (song by song and overall)

    About 10% of Iron Maiden songs don't have choruses. I do like the idea of a song which has a chorus but where the chorus isn't the candy drug of the song. I think people typically think the chorus ought to be the most melodic and catchy part because that is the typical radio song. Music is an...

    The three weakest IM tracks of the 80s?

    The eighties produced 6 IM albums There are two weak songs Invaders Gangland I can't think of any other weak songs of that decade, unless we dip into B-sides. like Mission from 'arry (which isn't a song, but is a track none the less)

    The Parchment

    I like the middle eastern feel to the song. I love when Bruce does that middle Eastern thing with his vocals at about 9:22-9:32. That's the highlight of the song for me. But the lead up to that part, drags on for far too long. The song has actually dropped a bit since the early days for me. It...

    Death Of The Celts

    The four Harris penned epics are my favourites on the album. I find listening in the car to disc 1 on repeat gets a little boring, listening to disc 2 on repeat never gets boring.

    Best Song Contest- Round 3, Part 3- The Grand Final!

    I don't want to argue about it. Of course the song has a solo. Most Maiden songs do. Some are spectacular, some are pretty good, some are run of the mill. I don't particularly recall Rime's solo to be a stand out. (I've just listened to the solo now, It's OK, nothing to write home about)...

    Best Song Contest- Round 3, Part 3- The Grand Final!

    When I listen to songs, for the most part I don't tend to pay much attention to lyrics. I like long instrumentals, but get bored with length vocal verses. Rime is very repetitive. And i'm not a big fan of that riff. There is no intro, it drops straight into it, and I personally find the riff...

    Best Song Contest- Round 3, Part 3- The Grand Final!

    It's not just about repetition, But you make claims about Rime as if it is a universal fact. "greatest composition in heavy metal history" It really is quite a claim, but of course just really an individual's opinion. I wasn't citing these other songs as evidence of less repetition, but as...

    TNOTB/BOH triple vinyl: Will you buy it or not?

    I already own the Number of the Beast songs. I have them on CD. Why would I buy them again?
