Interesting interpretation. Care to elaborate?

Montsegur's happy chorus rips, fuck all y'all. :p In all seriousness, it does feel a little jarring compared to the heavy badassery of the rest of the song... but I don't care, it's a fun section and the rest of the song is too good to let a little out-of-place moment bring it down.

Not in the slightest. No Prayer has more in common with Seventh Son than BNW does.

Having recently discovered the joys of ginger beer (and adding alcohol to it, in the form of a nice rum) I decided to try Crabbie's alcoholic ginger beer. It's good. I would like to try some of the fruity flavoured ones next.

The title track firmly wedged itself into my top ten shortly after release, gradually climbed to #2 and has refused to move ever since, not that I want it to. It only follows The Evil That Men Do, which is mostly #1 for being the song that made Maiden my favourite band. In my very disorganised...

This is the only insight into Birch's production that I could also remember. If Birch was gonna have any hand in Steve's songwriting then he should've told him to leave guff like Quest for Fire off Piece of Mind. :lol: I wasn't pointing fingers in any particular direction, if I used your term...

lolwhat. The rhythm guitar track is barely audible on TXF but can easily be heard on the last few albums, how can you even hear it to know that it's better? All this talk of Kevin needing to rein Steve in and trim some of the albums down, did Martin Birch ever have a hand in the songwriting...

I had a dream that I had a horrible tooth infection, it spread to the rest of my lower gums and under my tongue. When I brushed and flossed the following morning my gums were sore. :S

I find this really hard to answer. I was thinking recently about which Maiden songs I think are completely meritless, 'cause there are quite a few songs (some mentioned in this thread) that I think are pretty weak overall but have some redeeming moments, like a strong instrumental section or...

I don't see anything wrong with Tears or Darkest Hour :ok:

Eh, kind of predictable. Eighties stuff at the top, reunion stuff nearer the bottom, 90s albums ranked lowest. Only surprise is the Dance of Death ranking, and I appreciate Brave New World being in S Tier.

::)

How? What have the band done or said to suggest this?

:ninja:

Update time! Maiden England - 4/8/2013 (17 songs): Moonchild Can I Play With Madness? The Prisoner 2 Minutes to Midnight Afraid to Shoot Strangers The Trooper Number of the Beast Phantom of the Opera Run to the Hills Wasted Years Seventh Son of a Seventh Son The Clairvoyant Fear of the Dark...

I think you could find some connections between early Tool and Sabbath, plus Adam Jones is close with Tom Morello, it was him who invited Tool to play. I didn't know Rush were invited, that is odd. Admittedly there are some confusing inclusions that make less sense than Maiden, as great as he...

Seriously though, how much of a connection between Sabbath and Maiden is there? Obviously every early metal band was influenced by Sabbath in some way, and it would've been cool to see Maiden utterly outclass tip their hat to Sabbath as "one British metal band to another", but I never got the...

This came up a few months back: https://forum.maidenfans.com/threads/when-did-the-trooper-become-maidens-de-facto-big-hit.72557/ I do think Trooper Beer had some influence on The Trooper's popularity, but I agree that it was probably named after The Trooper because The Trooper was already so...

I knew he'd been on the Sooty Show in the eighties, I just couldn't find any pictures of him on Nick's kit from that time. Digging a little deeper I found the below, not sure exactly when it's from, but it's nice to know Sooty joined the kit pretty much immediately after Nick's appearance :)
