    Question about some albums

    I prefer the original covers of their debut and Number myself. I like the 98 cover of No Prayer though.

    Iron Maiden 180g Black Vinyl Reissues

    Ugh. This quality control thing is starting to get a bit rediculous. 3 of my 7'' Amazon singles have problems. Running Free/Burning Ambition has horrible warping and mixing problems, same for Run to the Hills/Total Eclipse, and for the Trooper/Cross Eyed Mary, the B-Side was not pressed properly...

    Yes, it was indeed Amazon. And I'm aware of that, but I think most poeple make bad decisions while flustered :/

    Iron Maiden 180g Black Vinyl Reissues

    Yall are right, I shouldn't have to take this. I've issued replacements on both LAD and POM. It's actually not as much a hassle as I thought, except for the fact POM is out of stock. I really don't want to wait that long though. Can anyone compare the original to this 2014 pressing in terms of...

    Iron Maiden 180g Black Vinyl Reissues

    True... Don't they charge like $10 or whatever just to re-stock it?

    Your First Iron Maiden Album/Experience?

    I first started getting into the band in the summer of 2013, even though I had heard the song Number of the Beast since I was a kid since it was on the Tony Hawk game, didn't really think much of it at that time, didn't even know it was Maiden :P When I heard it as I was going thru that album...

    Where would you place Maiden?

    Probably my favorite heavy metal band, and in my top 5 rock bands.

    Iron Maiden 180g Black Vinyl Reissues

    Currently going through LAD which came in today, playing through Rime of the Ancient Mariner. There as a skip at the beginning of the Trooper and even with cleaning, wouldn't go away and that pissed me off. So much that I pushed down really hard on the needle and eventually subdued the skip, but...

    Iron Maiden 180g Black Vinyl Reissues

    Just listened to the Powerslave reissue, no complaints there. Except maybe the cover feels a bit flimsy, but maybe that's just a nitpick.

    Question for Iron Maiden Fan Club Members

    Not a FC member but I did join the Megadeth Cyber Army, and their fan package was cool. A T shirt, signed band photo, signed CD, FC card, picks, pass, coin, other stuff and I paid $50 to join. Apparently there's a chat where you can chat with the actual band members but they're so busy I guess...

    Iron Maiden 180g Black Vinyl Reissues

    For that, it wasn't just me, I heard two other people on Youtube (one from Mexico, the other from the UK) say the same thing. But yeah, I really expected better quality control from Iron Maiden, giving them my hard earned money (after all I just turned 20), and I'd expect a quality product.

    Iron Maiden 180g Black Vinyl Reissues

    Once again, opposite for me. The newer pressings, all of them, tended to be quieter than the originals. I in fact bought both the original and new pressing of NOTB, and the remastered both sounded quieter and in terms of sound quality wasn't as "punchy" as the original. (I'm sticking with the...

    Iron Maiden 180g Black Vinyl Reissues

    I heard the first 3 albums particularly Killers and Number sounded inferior to the original pressings.

    Iron Maiden 180g Black Vinyl Reissues

    If anybody could go through the FC forums on some more opinions on the pressings, I'd appreciate that.

    Iron Maiden 180g Black Vinyl Reissues

    Just made a different thread but might as well post it on here too. On the Piece of Mind reissue (I'm in the USA btw) it seems like the entire album EQ is just slightly shifted to the right. It's not not terribly much but definitely noticeable, and for sure bothers me the way it favors the right...

    Iron Maiden Piece of Mind 2014 Vinyl Reissue Question

    I was playing through POM, and one particular track, "Die With Your Boots On", I've had a particular issue with. The vocals in particular and one of the guitar tracks sort of fidget in between the center and right channel, not very much but it's definitely noticeable and very much bothers me, as...

    Resident Audiophiles, help with Turntable problem!

    I uploaded a video about a little problem I had with my Audio Technica LP60 playing Def Leppard's "Hello America". Aside from that the turntable is excellent, but this threw me off and really ticks me because that buzzing in the vocals as I explained in the video I will post below shouldn't be...

    Favorite Bootlegs

    I have no clue. Does it sound the same as the one I posted?

    Your Maiden blasphemy

    No Prayer for the Dying is a kickass album. IMO I'll take it any day of the week over something like Brave New World.

    Favorite Bootlegs

    Probably the earliest bootleg on Youtube - Ruskin Arms, October 5 1979. Also one of Tony Parsons' last shows, since according to the Wiki Dennis Stratton joined later that month.
