Which is better?

For a long time Maiden were better for me. Now I think their coolness is pretty much equal.
 
I picked "equal amounts of ass" because I enjoy them pretty equally and I haven't really delved too deeply into either's discography to make an educated decision as to the superiority of one. But for each artist:

Iron Maiden - s/t, Killers, Piece of Mind
Judas Priest - British Steel, Painkiller
 
Well The Sentinel is my favourite song in metal.

Going from old live videos on youtube (and the one I own on tape wooo go me) Halford was one of the best front men ever.

I think Iron Maiden are a fucking great metal band but I still haven't really got totally into them I only have 4 of their albums.
 
Well there some people on this board who I thought I liked, but unfortunately, voting for any option other than Judas Priest in this particular poll automatically causes one to fucking suck.

Sorry, guys. :erk:

I actually wasn't surprised to see who voted for Maiden to be honest. They seemed like the "Maiden" type.

I'm not trying to insult you, but having Painkiller listed as your favorite Priest album is just bad. Please, PLEASE, go buy all of their first 5 albums.
 
I really couldent pick. Depends on the mood I'm in, really. Both have very diffrent sounds, while both being heavy metal.
