I just thought I'd bump this thread to say that Dance of Death has to be my favorite song by Iron Maiden.
What are some good songs on Killers?
Wrathchild, Killers, Twilight Zone, basically the whole album. (Nice bump btw...)
:rock:
Iron Maiden are awesome, no denying that. I have all the albums, but none of the vocalists can hold a candle to Bruce. And Iron Maiden won the award for best live band at the Brit awards earlier this year. Shows how awesome they are.
[QUOTE=D00ZLE;9927671]I've never really liked metal, but I've always kinda liked Iron Maiden.[/QUOTE] That can very well be true because Iron Maiden ISN'T A METALBAND!!! They play 70's and 80's hardrock Everybody thinks they know what metal is but the first real metal was Black Sabbath and they play much rougher than Iron Maiden And listen to modern day metal, like Children of Bodom or Ensiferum. That's real metal and Iron Maiden seems like just poprock compared to them. I don't want to say Iron Maiden sucks, but i do want to say this: Do your homework on music before you start screaming Iron Maiden is a metalband because THEY ARE NOT!!!
What the heck. Avast is telling me that the Killers picture is malware. Oh well, I guess it's too awesome even for Avast.

Modern day metal can go eat dick, 80's metal is the best music in the world. 1980 was the decade that brought metal, and good metal bands, like Metallica, Megadeth and Iron Maiden. Iron Maiden are classed as an 80's metal band. :dogout: And don't come back in here.
Look what the first line of wiki says [I]"Iron Maiden are an English heavy metal band"[/I]
Always the fucked up album covers and the clusterfucked band number 4 guitars? come on
They are most definitely heavy metal. More modern metal is more towards the thrashier and darker side of things, but to say Iron Maiden is not Metal is a fallacy

Iron Maiden, Megadeth, Judas Priest, etc. were GREAT metal bands (excluding Metallica because they re-use the same shit in their songs and are sloppy as hell). That shit you're listing, like Children of Bodom, etc. are shit compared to the GOOD metal of today like Liferuiner, Whitechapel, Meshuggah... They've got talent. So don't come into a music thread knowing NOTHING of music.
Is that the real dance of death album cover? It's a shit cover if I may say so.

About 30 years ago, there was a metal movement called the [b]New Wave Of British Heavy Metal[/b], go look it up, and you'll notice that Iron Maiden is listed as one of the major spearhead bands of this movement. 2. The bands you listen to are [b]Melodic Death Metal[/b], not [b]Heavy Metal[/b], which Iron Maiden is classified as. 3. You should do [b]your[/b] homework next time before you charge in and say more stupid shit like that, you fucking tool.
KyleV2, YOU ARE CORRECT! Now what prize would you like?

Fuck yes... :rock:
Up the irons! Powerslave og Piece of mind as the best albums :D Or probably The number of the beast.
Heres some very old school Maiden (Soundhouse Tapes era): [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5sDshBmMuTw&fmt=18[/media]
I have the Soundhouse Tapes, I think.
I've got some bootleg version that has Strange World on it.
Iron Maiden - (1979) The Soundhouse Tapes Tracks: Iron Maiden Invasion Strange World Prowler That's what I have on my Soundhouse Tapes. I got the album art too, though it isn't very interesting.
Someone get a mod to delete the Killers Cover from the OP, and Quoted OP from Second Page. Avast is getting Spyware pop ups from it. That being said. My Top Iron Maiden songs of Today, which will change tommorow, but are fucking amazing. Paschendale Powerslave Mariner Fear of the Dark Alexander the Great Moonchild 23:58 Thaiwo is a fucking spanner.
KLTH is my alt (this account was perma'd when I made this thread), so I'll change the OP ASAP...
Powerslave and Seventh son of a seventh son are by two favorites albums. I'd say my favorite song is either The Legacy or Paschendale.
This band = WIN! Currently have everything up to Virtual XI, with Dickinson-era material being absolute favorite. However, I would like to find out who made the cover for Dance of Death and embed a crowbar into his head. What is with the absolutely horrible CGI cover?
This was my #1 band for a loooong time, it's still one of my favorites.
