    Poll: The weakest 80's Maiden album?

    Couldn't agree more with these takes. Especially TLOTLDR (my favorite tune on par with WY) and how the boring history lesson lyrics shave a bit of Alexander's charm (despite musically being one hell of a tune). Now this is where we disagree. Absolute monster of a song IMO. Heavy as hell and...

    Poll: The weakest 80's Maiden album?

    Nor are they mine (perhaps with the exception of FTGGOG). If you read it carefully I wrote "other fan favorites" (yes, even Deja Vu is highly held, especially now that it's the only SIT lacking live attention). And the only reason I don't like HCW live even more is due to a certain overplaying...

    Poll: The weakest 80's Maiden album?

    "Weakest" and HCW in the same sentence is unthinkable in my book. 10 ou of 10 even with a somewhat repetitive chorus. Which is a trait common to other fan favorites: Deja Vu, Fear Of The Dark, SSOASS, The Wicker Man, Brave New World, Blood Brothers and For The Greater Good Of God (just to name...

    Virus

    IMO, the single edit version is what it's at. From the point the track goes up-tempo (featuring those gorgeous guitar harmonies) up to the synth filled final part this song is awesome ... a solid 8 or 8,5 out of 10. Now, when it comes to the full version I think the initial calm section is...

    Doom Metal

    Taking into account that there's lot of Candlemass here, yup... it's kinda fair to say they are. Not that I care too much, but it seems the second wave of Doom Metal spearheaded by Candlemass (and then continued by Solitude Aeturnus, Solstice and many others) got the moniker of Epic Doom, while...

    Bruce Dickinson

    Listened to More Balls To Picasso today and IMO it sounded really nice. The samples are cool and I also liked the arrangements. Overall, it felt like a cool rearrangement of the original. And if it was Bruce's initial vision IMO he had the right to do it. After all, even if you don't like these...

    Top 40 Maiden songs

    Three deep cuts that didn't make into my top 40 yet I also love. If it was a deep cuts list only, I'd surely feature them in my rank (and TBH Purgatory is not that far from my top 40). Besides the ones you mentioned, other deep cuts I absolutely love are: Invasion Total Eclipse Invaders Back In...

    Top 40 Maiden songs

    Yes, it seems like a lot but, with almost 20 albums and many of them being top tier quality, it's way harder than it seems.

    Poll: 2 Minutes to Midnight vs. The Wicker Man?

    Quite the opposite of surprising IMO ... it leaked out more than 20 years before its release. :D
