Yeah, I'm pretty weird as far as Maiden goes
Generally I prefer what Maiden did in the 90s and the reunion compared to their output in the 80s. As far as the golden era goes, I feel they generally got better with each album.
Basically: Killers < IM < TNOTB < POM < PS < SIT < SSOASS
My top 5 are:
1. VXI (yeah, mostly down to nostalgia)
2. AMOLAD
3. SSOASS
4. FOTD
5. DOD
Another reason is probably that I'm not the biggest fan of Bruce's air raid siren era in the early 80s. I much prefer how he sounded from 95 onwards.
