GREATEST METAL ALBUM CUP - Winner: Iron Maiden - Seventh Son of a Seventh Son!

[Lampwick 43]

In my last hour I'm a slave to the power of Powerslave.

 

[FTB]

Powerslave wins it for me.
7th has great tracks on it, but the synths they used here make this kind of a pop record

 

[KidInTheDark666]

Synths in metal are great!

Used like on SIT yes.

 

[Whooten]

Why do I have to be a Powerslave?

Why do I have to be a Powerslave?

Do you have six older brothers and six uncles older than your dad?

 

[Black Bart]

Lack of riff? It is very similar to the one in ''Flash Of The Blade''.

I'm talking about "The Duellists", which starts with a little drums and right away, a chugging pattern that is the same as on the verse.

 

[DJ James]

Gotta vote Powerslave. Happy to see 7th Son come this far. Looks like it'll be our winner. And you know, that's pretty cool.

 

[Magnus]

In my last hour

Is death another birthday?
A way to kiss your dreams goodbye?

 

[Magnus]

Dozens of black metal albums that are much, much better than either of these but it is what it is.
You know.

The Invisible Hand vastly disagrees, it seems.

Witty response involving Invisible Handjobs deleted.

True, but this is just one community on the internet. I'd be really curious if a place like Metal Archives did a GMAC.

Casting my vote for Symbol of Salvation!

SSOASS did start very favourably, currently with 4 votes lead, and probably 10+ people to go (some interesting pairs had 36 votes total), anything could happen.

 

[The Dissident]

Powerslave was the first studio album I bought from Maiden. It for me is stronger than Seventh Son

 

[Jer]

Powerslave is excellent, but Seventh Son is transcendent. Congratusorrylations, The Diesissaapyn DJ Jermaticollie’s FTBooseCornmathicksrflashnightman, but there can be only one. Kalackter FlasrfNiaddie’s Perullinjermaticman’s nominee deserves to win the GMAC. Winner: Iron Maiden - Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son

 

[LooseCannon]

Powerslave is closing the gap, but will it be enough?!

They're more likely to do a school shooting
