GMD Poll: Iron Maiden Albums Ranked

[Vegard Pompey]

At least Final Frontier doesn't have Dream of Mirrors on it.

I ONLY DREAM IN BLACK AND WHIIIITE

 

[Dak]

I ONLY DREAM CAUSE IM ALIIIIIIVE

 

[EspaDa]

Certainly not their best but still better than the lead single off Final Frontier.

 

[zabu of nΩd]

The fact that you put Brave New World almost last means you know nothing about Maiden

The fact that you (1) ranked it above their first four albums, and (2) singled out Killers from a discography as bloated as Maiden's to point out what you call filler, pretty much invalidates any opinions you have about music let alone Maiden.

Trve rvles of UM rating games:

1. No album can be first that isn't within the first 3 releases of a discography.
2. Everything Metallica did after AJFA sucks.
3. The only black metal that sucks is IT FUCKING DOESN'T.
4. Breakdowns are an automatic disqualifier.
5. Judas Priest is better than Iron Maiden because of one album.
6. Thrash made after the 80s is just a sad imitation.
7. Chuck Schuldiner didn't get cancer soon enough.
8. Covers should never be done and always suck.


Know these or be considered the poseurist of poseurs.

Did I forget any?

Don't hide your trvest bonafides brosef. Rep it

 

[HamburgerBoy]

BNW and The Final Frontier are easily the best of their reunion albums, not worth making a big deal over which of the two are better. The only important thing is in realizing that Killers and Piece of Mind are masterpieces of the metal artform and if neither makes your top 3 or so, you should go back to your Agalloch albums.

 

[Talos of Atmora]

I ONLY DREAM IN INFRARED

I CAN'T STAND THE PAAA-AAA-AAIIIIN

Half of PoM is filler, the other half is epic. I don't think you can just ignore the filler to make your statement.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

There isn't one second of non-epic filler Piece of Mind.

 

[CiG]

Your list is fucking gay.

A favorite rule of both yours and mine, as we've demonstrated many times.
