this really doesn't matter at all. Clive Burr has been a part in more classic IM albums than Janick Gers...

Somewhere in Time and Seventh Son of a Seventh Son. wish they would be louder in the mix though. I love how the riffs sound behind the solos like in Caught Somewhere in Time or The Clairvoyant. still, imo, the heaviest sound they ever got. which is kind of ironic in a way...

it's an ok solo... again nothing unforgetable. btw, The Clansman could have been a great song had it been 2-2:30 mins shorter. it is probably the best song of the album anyway though...

nobody said that Janick is a bad player. I wouldn't call his style sloppy, he just seems a bit lazy in the creation department. he might very well be a more accomplished player than Adrian but I can't think of a Janick solo that sticks in my brain, a solo you could whistle around. I could...

yeah, a bit surprised JP downtuned in the Ripper era, as he's a nice competent vocalist. or maybe they downtuned because they wanted to sound heavier, seeing it was the Jugulator/Demolition era. Ripper could sing the falsettos with the best of them, I didn't think he needed help playing those...

IM doesn't owe anything to Blaze imo. actually Blaze owe them. he made a name for himself being the voice of Iron Maiden not the other way around. I believe he would have toured with IM for the BNW tour as the opening band, but I bet the slot was never offered to him. again, I don't have the...

that's exactly what I said myself...

first of all Blaze's wife has passed away back in 2008. http://www.blabbermouth.net/news/blaze-bayley-s-wife-passes-away/ second of all, isn't interesting that out of all people it was Nicko pointing it out to Steve that Blaze just doesn't fit and that the band goes down? you'd think he...

the problem with statements like NPftD is a better album than TNotB is context, actually the lack of it. let's say that NPftD is better musically for the sake of argument. but we don't have (most of us) a time machine to go back in time to 1982 to see the impact of a fresh TNotB album for the...

actually I was obviously agreeing with your post. the rest of my post after the negation was in repsonse to the OP...

this... go read this, if you want to know why NPftD was subpar: http://maidenrevelations.com/2012/11/09/feature-friday-maiden-exits/ the part about Adrian leaving the band.

there are two CARCASS references on Friends. you could find both of them on YT...

Infinite Dreams, at least the Birmingham video version. the bass sounds absolutely amazing on that one. the build up on the Rime of the Ancient Mariner after the long moody part.

Nicko has more groove because he's the "slower" drummer between the two. Clive still had tons of grooves for such a dynamic drummer. both seem to be clockwork timing wise, at least from the videos I've seen with Clive. apparently he had issues with it before they fired him because of his...

been a fan since 1992. even then I got to understand the impact that Adrian had on classic Maiden and I totally hated his departure. when Blaze came in, as a pretty fresh fan the expectations were high for a new album. then before the album the video for Man on the Edge came out and I kind of...

then Janick comes in playing Adrian's solo. :D:facepalm: I don't know what are the motives behind his butchering of Adrian's solos. maybe it is his approach, this only means his approach sucks... that's it. he needs to put more thought in his approach... as a fan who bought a ton of their...

it's between RotAM and AtG for me. close enough RotAM.

instead of rating them I'll post the songs I wish I could see live from each album: Phantom of the Opera Strange World Murders in the Rue Morgue Killers Prodigal Son (mostly for Adrian's solo) 22 Accacia Avenue The Prisoner Die With Your Boots on Revelations The Duellists Powerslave Rime of the...

wish they would re-do the first album with Birch producing it. that would be amazing.

while they are pioneers for their genre, I don't really like their "pioneering" era. I love their Alan Wilder era from Black Celebration up to Ultra (included).
