    The "random argument" thread for arguments not appropriate in other threads

    Have your argument started to get heated in a Maiden thread somewhere that is at least somewhat off-topic? Is it getting in the way of the thread, but is nonetheless a matter that you think is worthy of discussing? Do you have a case that doesn't warrant its own thread in the General section...

    The Kevin Shirley thread

    I thought we could collect some cool records mixed by Shirley here, as he is really good at what he does (and any Maiden problems regarding the Shirley mixed stuff are for the most part a Harris problem, before we get into that whole discussion again). This is a brand new release, and it sounds...

    Should Simon Dawson change his last name to McBrain?

    We all know there has been an outpouring of different kinds of emotions. Some are in a state of despair, but I've been pondering if there's maybe a way to put a bandaid on this whole situation. Simon Dawson could change his last name to McBrain - It might make Steve's drummer selection feel...

    The beer vs wine poll

    This is a question that has been debated and pondered for ages. Songs have been sung and battles have been fought to determine what the superior beverage is. But now time has come to settle this once and for all.

    Iron Maiden albums that your opinion has shifted on

    As the thread title states: Is there any particular album you've changed your opinion on (the initial 10/10 praise after a new album release, followed by a more grounded assessment is a given, but any other than that)? The album that comes to mind for me is The Final Frontier. When it came out...

    How good is it - Listen, review and on to the next album

    So, the idea is this is going to be a weekly recurring review thread, if you guys turn out to have fun with it. The idea is that within the span of a week, a selected, non-Maiden album, will be up for a spin-through, where the participants will do a song-by-song review and final rating. Other...

    What five albums collectively represents Maiden's catalogue the best?

    So, it's "silly Maiden thread" time, with a large chunk of serious consideration. I'm currently spinning a couple of tunes from AMOLAD, and this curveball came spinning into my head during the galloping section right before the outro to BTATS. Now, Maiden have made lots of albums and I get it...

    Unfavorable Iron Maiden album reviews

    This thread is a place to post unfavorable Iron Maiden reviews. I came across this gem on Allmusic, regarding Rock in Rio, by Brian On'Neill. "With the reunion studio disc Brave New World failing to recapture the imagination and intensity of Iron Maiden in America and even in many places in the...

    The headphones and speakers thread

    So, we all listen to music on various equipment, and it might be interesting to share what we listen through and perhaps a place for casual recommendations within the community without the pretentiousness of the various hifi-forums. I've a few headphones, being a sound buff and all, but at home...

    What if Maiden, Priest and Metallica made a joint album where they cover eachother's songs?

    This has been a long time dream of mine. Wasn't sure where to post it, but I'm sure Maiden chat will do? If they, in this hypothetical (as in will never happen) situation covered three songs of each band, which songs would you pick? Rules: Same song can't be covered by two bands and each band...

    Iron Maiden live releases - Setlist, performance and sound. What's the most important to you?

    This is a poll to decide what official release wins respective category regarding setlist, performance and sound. I've included most official releases, but skipped on a couple (i.e. Monsters of Rock 1988, Live at Dortmund, Ruskin Arms etc ). I've not added different options for ie. original vs...

    Watches

    Are you guys wearing wrist watches? If you do, post pics. This is what I'm sporting today. As for me, I started to get into waches after I inherited a watch from my father in law. I think it's fun to dig into the design, historical and technical aspects of them as well as to just wear them...

    Complaints about Maiden

    This is the thread where you can post as many off topic Maiden rants as your moods lets you. Have Maiden not offered their views on a political occurance? Why haven't Maiden forced Fender to release a Gers signature guitar? Why, oh why, didn't they include Total Eclipse on NoTB? Or are you...

    What are your hobbies?

    So. Apart from listening to Maiden, music and going to gigs. What are your hobbies? I've developed a fascination for watches and aquired a few the last 3 or so years. I Frequent a watch forum as well, although I mostly lurk since I'm not enough of a watch nerd to fit in really.
