Best song on Iron Maiden - Killers

[Spreadingthe Living312]

The next poll. Self explanatory.

The best IMO is Murders In The Rue Morgue.

 

[Dazed and Brutal]

Murders In the Rue Morgue is the best Maiden song in general, but all of Killers is ace!

 

[Nightmare_Heaven]

Wratchchild

This one is harder than on the self-titled...it could really go to a number of tracks. I think I'll have to give it a once over before I actually vote.

 

[Zephyrus]

Haven't heard a single song. The title of the first track appealed to me most.

 

[zabu of nΩd]

Omg we better make a poll for every metal album from the early '80s.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Wrathchild.

 

[Vilden]

Purgatory obv. Best maiden song from both Di'Anno albums.

 

[AchrisK]

Killers is my favorite Maiden. I like the whole thing. Best I can do is identify my least favorite song, which I think is Drifter.

 

[username345]

I much prefer their self-titled myself, but there are some good songs: Wrathchild & Prodigal Son

 

[Blind Eye Halo]

Wrathchild wins it for me, runner up Killers itself, but only marginally.

Yeah, the s/t has a good deal more kick to its sound - especially in the guitars. Those opening licks on "Prowler", for example, just cut like a fucking razor. Killers sounds really overproduced in comparison; the drumming is really busy (i.e. 420 hi-hat beats per minute on half the songs) and those lame-ass guitar wails... they're everywhere!

In terms of songwriting, Killers may be a superior album, but the genericness of the sound really compromises it, imo.

Stop making such hard polls plz!

 

[CF87]

Innocent Exile followed by Killers.

 

[Vilden]

wat.

I'm right most people just haven't realised it yet.

 

[Thoth-Amon]

killers imo

 

[waif]

Wrathchild or Killers, the only really good songs on this thing.

 

[Vegard Pompey]

Fuck, this is difficult. There isn't a bad song on the entire album. Hell, there isn't even a decent song on the entire album. I'll have to go with the title track, with Purgatory as a close second.

 

[Psychonaut]

Wrathchild

 

[Rumpole]

Drifters.
