Jesus whats wrong with Maiden? They arent Judas PRiest spaffe.
Well I like Seventh SOn best, followed by Powerslave and SOmewhere in TIme. Im not a huge fan of their last 6 or so albums; nor their early albums, although Number of the Beast is good.
This one makes my head smoke. Depends on when you ask, but since you asked today, the answer is Powerslave. Others challenge from time to time, but it most often owns the top spot.
It was not as an attack on Maiden, they're pretty good, it's just that I thought the thread sucked and needed to be turned in another direction since we've had similar threads not too long ago. The picture was posted by a friend of mine and this thread was the best and most convienient place for posting it with the search function being down and all
I'll have to go with their first release because that is the definitive Maiden sound. The basslines are extraordinary and the sound is innovative and holds nothing back. Paul's voice was also more Metal.
Number of the Beast, because very ime Hallowed be thy name comes on I go spastic , turn the radio up to blowing the speakers level, and try and hold the note a long as bruce. Sometimes I do.
