But it's not the worst!

Correct! The worst album was born 39 years, 1 month, and 22 days ago.

 

[KidInTheDark666]

True.

What’s wrong with Killers? It’s not the most memorable Maiden album but dang does it have energy.

 

[Diesel 11]

It also has mind-numbing filler.

 

[Brigantium]

Actually, my issue with Killers is just the style in general. It seems like a backward step, not a progression into 80s metal.

I agree, but with a couple of notable exceptions, most notably the title track, which is fucking awesome.

 

[KidInTheDark666]

Yeah, the title track is top notch.

 

[Dr. Eddies Wingman]

I concur with the last speakers, but I think in addition to the title track, Genghis Khan and Murders in the Rue Morgue are great songs. And despite the flak I've given Maiden over the years for replacing other songs with Wrathchild ... I really enjoy the song as part of the album.

In other news, I found that one of the departure waypoints from Oslo Airport was earlier named GOTUR, which is funny because it's obviously a shortening of god tur (have a nice trip). One of the current departure routes is called RIBBE after a much cherished Christmas dish.

There's one around here called UVAVU, which is also the word Vic Reeves uses to summon the Dove From Above on game show Shooting Stars. If you don't already know what this is, don't bother to look it up, it makes no sense to anyone other than Vic Reeves fans.

Those would be the other three songs I was thinking of, yes.

 

[KidInTheDark666]

I'd add Purgatory too. The rest isn't that good.

 

[Diesel 11]

Ides, Wrathchild, Murders, Genghis, and Killers are the five "goodies" for me, so yeah, I agree.

You guys are either deaf or heartless. Or half-deaf and half-heartless, in some cases.
There isn't a single weak song on Killers, and it is one of the four greatest Maiden albums ever.
#PreachingToTheDeaf I know.

 

[Yax]

It's a very cool album.

 

[Saapanael]

Killers has a lovely atmosphere, a warm oldschool sound that places you right into early 80s London.

I'd imagine going to a Killers headlining show would be one of the best Maiden gigs you could see (if you caught Paul on a good night), just because of the sheer youth, aggression and the intimacy of playing small venues.

 

[Travis The Dragon]

For me, Maiden's 2 worst albums are No Prayer and Fear Of The Dark.

 

[Perun]

Speaking of Killers, did somebody find an unused demo from that era and decide to record it for themselves here?

 

[Black Wizard]

One of my upstairs neighbours had the cheek to knock on my door this morning to ask if he could use my wifi since he has to work from home. Absolutely not. I have to work from home too dumbass.

Is WiFi so expensive that he doesn't have it at home?

I don't know a single person who doesn't have WiFi at home here. No TV sure, but no WiFi? Probably only homeless people don't have it here.
