Your Maiden blasphemy

The Duellists is currently one of my all time favourite Maiden tracks. The guitar and bass work is top notch! On top of great vocals and a nice groove.
 
I actually quite enjoy all of Chains Of Misery, From Here To Eternity and Weekend Warrior. It's The Apparition, Fear Is The Key, and Childhoods End which destroy the album for me.

Childhood end is too good to be mentioned with those other "songs"

It is better than Fear is the Key and anything is better than The Apparition but it is still comfortably worse than the next lowest song.

Which I consider to be The Fugitive, by the way. Weekend Warrior is great.

My order

Fear of the dark
Judas be my guide
Wasting love
Affraid to shoot strangers
Be quick or be dead
Childhoods end
The fugitive
Chains of misery
From here to eternity
Weekend warrior
Fear is the key
The apparition

If you were to make an album out of the top 8 songs it would be in the same ranks as SIT and SSoASS

Personally the only song I would give a 10 rating to from FOTD is Be Quick or Be Dead.
FOTD itself is a 9 and the rest of the album is very patchy with FHTE being the best of the rest.
 
My order:

10 - Fear of the Dark
9 - Be Quick or be Dead - Afraid to Shoot Strangers - Wasting Love - Judas be my Guide
8 - Fom Here to Eternity - Fear is the Key - Childhood's End - Chains of Misery - The Apparition - Weekend Warrior
7 - The Fugitive (despite that killer riff at 3:38 and solo)

Overall rating: 8,42

If ranking the whole album:

12 - The Apparition
11 - Fear Is The Key
10 - Childhoods End
09 - The Fugitive
08 - Chains Of Misery
07 - Wasting Love
06 - Weekend Warrior
05 - Judas Be My Guide
04 - Be Quick Or Be Dead
03 - From Here To Eternity
02 - Afraid To Shoot Strangers
01 - Fear Of The Dark

Though the top 2 tracks are definitely a cut above the others.

Judas be my guide worse than FHTE, no way ...
 
The whole song is unbearable. That's a shame, because I recall vaguely it has some nice solos, but how to reach them...
