    Maiden songs everybody seems to like but you dislike?

    Was this when the complaints about Maiden's music being "too long" started? I can't really remember, I'd only been a fan for about a year when TFF came out. If it was, then The Alchemist being one of the shorter songs on the album and being the closest in style to their eighties material might...

    Maiden songs everybody seems to like but you dislike?

    "Dislike" is a strong term for all of these, it's more "like, but don't get the hype": Paschendale: One that I absolutely fell in love with when I first heard it and was a top Maiden song for me for years, but I've found myself liking it less and less as time's gone on. I might even prefer...

    Moments you thought "Maiden sounding weird here"

    I feel the same about When the River Runs Deep's final solo. The fast lead melody is great, it really feels like it's building momentum... then Adrian's solo hits with its slower, heavy rhythm and it sounds like a completely different song. Seems like Adrian had a cool riff/solo idea and nobody...

    Rant Thread

    YouTube is getting very annoying, both mobile and computer. Randomly over the past few days the homepage has been compiled of nothing but "mixes". What's that about? I don't want mixes, get outta here. The "community posts" where users just dump shitty memes are annoying. No matter how many...

    NOW WATCHING

    I watched Challengers last night, and man, was I not bored. Didn't have much of an idea of the story (aside from the Internet-breaking Zendaya threesome scene, which - as expected - never actually happened) but I had heard very good things so gave it a shot, and it was indeed very good...

    Metallica OR Megadeth?

    Metallica, mostly due to more familiarity. Megadeth are (mostly) technically superior but, though I like a lot of what I've heard of theirs, it hasn't really inspired to me to want to take a deeper dive into their discography. Actually, their technical superiority is possibly one reason why...

    VOCALIST POLL: Ozzy Osbourne Vs. Blaze Bayley Vs. Adrian Smith

    Fake af, this was clearly taken on The Book of Souls Tour, during which Different World was not played during which. The heavenly choir that is 'arry's voice was more likely singing DEAF OR GLORY

    If Clive Burr was drummer on Piece of mind and onwards ?

    Maiden would've also needed a new drummer much sooner than 2025, due to Clive's MS. Wonder who would've been in consideration in that scenario?

    Now Playing (Video Games)

    Though I enjoyed some of the Joker moments in Knight, I was pretty disappointed he still features so heavily, especially after his appearance in Arkham Origins. They were doing such a good job with Black Mask and the other assassins in that game before the twist, and Batman has such a great...

    the Iron Maiden method of songwriting

    Wasn't it just the last two albums that they wrote/recorded in this manner? Even then, they didn't write everything in the studio. Bruce had written "If Eternity Should Fail" for a potential solo album, parts of "Empire of the Clouds" were written on a keyboard he won at a raffle. Steve has also...

    Most overrated Maiden album?

    It's funny, whenever people say Beast is overrated I always go "Yeah, you're right, there's only two or three great songs on there, everything else is overplayed or filler". Then I look at the tracklist and think, "Well, Invaders is crap, but Children of the Damned rips. So does The Prisoner. So...

    Rant Thread

    More of a ramble than a rant, didn't know where else to put it. I can't believe it's New Year's Eve already, said everyone, every year. Even though I continue to not care about New Year, I thought I'd take a look back on 2024, and I realised this year's been... alright, actually. 2023 felt...

    Bruce talks not detuning the songs

    Both an accurate description of what it feels like to read this thread and an example of a song Maiden should've tuned down/dropped the key on. Classic Mosh.

    First line of dialogue: "This will begin to make things right". Remember when that was supposed to be a jab at the prequels, that the sequels were gonna take us back to original trilogy quality? Yeah.

    There was a sex festival going on when I went to Berlin in September, should've asked then.

    I enjoy the seasonal avatar changes, there don't seem to be so many this year. I remember @Mosh having Eddie in a Santa hat for the whole year, he needs to return.
