Each Maiden album with one word

Ascendingthethrone

Ancient Mariner
I think I have seen this thread before, but what the hell. Describe each Maiden album with one word. Make it sensible, funny or controversial.

Iron Maiden. Raw
Killers. Leftovers
The Number of the Beast. Fresh
Piece of Mind. Fresher
Powerslave. Noodling
Somewhere in Time. Lasers
Seventh Son of a Seventh Son. Storyline?
No Prayer for the Dying. Retrograde
Fear of the Dark. Bloated
The X Factor. Blueprint
Virtual XI. Nicko?
Brave New World. Relief
Dance of Death. Twiddly
A Matter of Life and Death. Gutsy
The Final Frontier. Progressive
The Book of Souls. Nostalgic
Senjutsu. Padded

I’m more than willing to explain some of my choices.
