BigHans: Priest Vs Maiden - Hans Breaks It Down

BigHans 12.09.11	fucking m/
JamieTwort 12.09.11	Great list. It's close but I would say I prefer Maiden.
TheSpirit 12.09.11	agree that maiden should win but it's blasphemous to say that judas has manlier riffs when iron maiden was easily always the heavier out of the two
Trebor. 12.09.11	Maiden
BigHans 12.09.11	The riff on Dissident Aggressor and I could name some others are heavier than anything Maiden ever did.
DoubtGin 12.09.11	priest wins
JamieTwort 12.09.11	I don't think Maiden have done anything quite as spine tingling as Halford's scream in Victim of Changes.
DoubtGin 12.09.11	priest wins
Ovrot 12.09.11	Oh god I'd rather pick which of my children to die
BigHans 12.09.11	lol Ovrot. Goddamn you're metal dude.
Ovrot 12.09.11	m/
Pharoh 12.09.11	How about the album art?
DominionMM1 12.09.11	priest wins [2] and all chaps are assless, hans.
BigHans 12.09.11	How about the album art? ^ Maiden
BigHans 12.09.11	and all chaps are assless, hans. ^ lol
BigHans 12.09.11	GRANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNND CANYONS OF SPACE AND TIME UNIVERSAL
Ovrot 12.09.11	best priest song or best priest song dat scream
Pharoh 12.09.11	That powerslave album art rules. m/
MO 12.09.11	sad wings is the best album of the 2 bands
BigHans 12.09.11	Combined Top Ten: 1. Number of the Beast 2. Painkiller 3. Sad Wings 4. Powerslave 5. Seventh Son 6. Screaming for Vengeance 7. Piece of Mind 8. Maiden S/T 9. British Steel 10. Somewhere In Time 11. Sin After Sin 12. Stained Class 13. Matter of Life and Death 14. Brave New World 15. Killers
KjSwantko 12.09.11	List is really good Hans, nice work. However, Priest actually wins because they have Turbo Lover in their discography.
BigHans 12.09.11	Turbo Lover owns
KjSwantko 12.09.11	it's simultaneously the worst song ever, and the absolute best.
BallsToTheWall 12.09.11	CHILDREN OF THE DAMMMMMMNED
JamieTwort 12.09.11	VICTIM OF CHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNGGGESSSSSSSSS
TheNotrap 12.09.11	Hahaha So damn hard to choose between my absolute fav heavy metal bands. ICONIC SONGS Winner - Maiden ALBUM CONSISTENCY Winner - Maiden LIVE PERFORMANCES Winner - Maiden INFLUENCE Tie RIFFS Winner - Maiden BASS Winner - Maiden VOCALS Winner - Priest DRUMMING Winner - Maiden GUITAR SOLOS Winner - Priest LYRICS Winner - Maiden MASCOT That's not fair Fucking up the Irons! m/
BigHans 12.09.11	Victim of Changes > any Maiden song
AngelofDeath 12.09.11	Sad Wings of Destiny > any Maiden album
BigHans 12.09.11	WHISKEY WOMAN DONT YOU KNOW THAT YOU ARE DRIVING ME INSANEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
JamieTwort 12.09.11	m/
MetalMassacreAttack 12.09.11	This is not even close, as you've said repeatedly. Maiden beats the crap ou of Priest in all aspects mentioned. "Painkiller" is a truly outstading album, though.
BigHans 12.09.11	Maiden beats the crap ou of Priest in all aspects mentioned. ^ nah
DominionMM1 12.09.11	NOW CHANGE HAS COME OVER HER BODY SHE DOESN'T SEE ME ANYMORE
BigHans 12.09.11	VICTIM OF CHANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSS
BigHans 12.09.11	CAUGHT SOMEWHEREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE IN TIMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
BallsToTheWall 12.09.11	Victim of Changes > any Maiden song False
CakeWithCream 12.09.11	in my opinion Influence should be worth more than 10 points, but yeah, a part of my soul would be ripped away from me, but I'd choose Maiden over Priest
BigHans 12.09.11	The Sentinel > Life
BallsToTheWall 12.09.11	Mansion In Darkness > God
BigHans 12.09.11	King Diamond m/ but this is about Priest and Maiden dude
TheNotrap 12.09.11	Victim of Changes > any Maiden song Nop. Hallowed Be Thy Name it's the greatest metal song ever made.
BigHans 12.09.11	Top 5-10 for sure Notrap
BallsToTheWall 12.09.11	doesn't matter, my randomness will seep in anywhere. I was never too keen on Priest, ill stick with Maiden, Danzig, King Diamond and Motorhead.
BigHans 12.09.11	Maiden, Danzig, King Diamond and Motorhead ^ so much m/
BigHans 12.09.11	dude Im jamming Turbo Lover so hard right now Priest rules
TheNotrap 12.09.11	Both bands rule damn hard. These guys (with Sabbath and Metallica - classic era) are the most iconic metal bands. It's difficult to choose between greatness.
TheNotrap 12.09.11	m/
Jethro42 12.09.11	Judas who...? Iron who...?
BigHans 12.09.11	damn it Jethro
TheNotrap 12.09.11	Jethro is learning how to metal hard. Give it time.
BigHans 12.09.11	if there is ever a metal band he would love it would be Maiden due to their long, complex songs
greg84 12.09.11	Lionize>both these bands
Jethro42 12.09.11	Joke aside, I'm way more familiar with Maiden. It's obvious cos I haven't heard more than 4 or 5 Priest songs and I intend to fix it, as you know it.
TheNotrap 12.09.11	Yes but I believe Sad Wings of Destiny and Stained Class are more classic rock, probably more Jethro style.
Jethro42 12.09.11	You guys are both right. So let see...
BigHans 12.09.11	m/
Jethro42 12.09.11	m/
Ovrot 12.09.11	m/
greg84 12.09.11	I'm the devil. I love metal.
Jethro42 12.09.11	Sure you do.
TheNotrap 12.09.11	Jethro comment somewhere in 2013: Jethro: Damn it! Slayer, Napalm Death and Carcass rule hard!! Fucking m/ Notrap: ? Dude, we're in a Genesis thread talking about their last album with Phil and Gabriel together again! Jethro: Sorry dude!! I'm 100% into metal now, let's jam Morbid Angel on last.fm!! Notrap: ??????????????????
Ovrot 12.09.11	hey it's greg m/
Jethro42 12.09.11	hahaha wow in your dreams Notrap, bro. Are you sure this is not a conversation between you and my son?
TheNotrap 12.09.11	;-)
greg84 12.09.11	@Ovrot: I know I'm cool ;) Cheers mate m/
Jethro42 12.09.11	@Notrap, I'm intrinsically a proghead and it's irreversible. In my case for sure. Would be more easy to 100% convert my son =]
TheNotrap 12.09.11	Hahaha Never say never...
Jethro42 12.09.11	A rabbit couldnt be a hare, Notrap =] Also, I just edited my last comment
TheNotrap 12.09.11	baby steps. First Priest, then Maiden. 6 months after: Slayer, Megadeth and Testament 1 year: All the more underground stuff. 2 years from now: Your avatar will be Jethro666
Jethro42 12.09.11	hahaha Jethro666 would fit more with Jethro jr. Or maybe Jetallica P/M/
Ire 12.09.11	seen both live maiden slightly edges out
LepreCon 12.09.11	Love this list concept
CakeWithCream 12.09.11	yeah Hallowed Be Thy Name is such an amazing, stupendous, incredulous, overwhelming, metal song. I'm not sure if those words even work as adjectives for what I'm trying to say but they make it sound kinda cool
TheNotrap 12.09.11	^So damn true.
KILL 12.10.11	yea gonna agree maiden is best overall but nothing beats sad wings, dreamer deceiver is the best song ever, hallowed is close but m/
Gilgamahesh 12.10.11	"iron maiden was easily always the heavier out of the two" Not from what I've heard of Painkiller. And I've listened to the whole album about a million times. Both are retarded amounts of m/ but in the end Maiden wins for me. I heard 'em first and they're even more iconic than Priest. And I may lol but the Eddie vs. assless chaps thing is legit too.
BigHans 12.12.11	m/
TheNotrap 12.12.11	m/
JamieTwort 12.12.11	m/
omnipanzer 12.12.11	Next up: Maiden Vs. Clutch or Maiden Vs. Dio (all incarnations)
TheNotrap 12.12.11	@Omni Good call. But the hardest battle is probably Maiden vs Metallica (not for Hans sure)
qwe3 12.12.11	maiden by so fucking much
Jethro42 12.12.11	m/
BigHans 12.12.11	gonna do Metallica vs Megadeth soon, will be fun
qwe3 12.12.11	priest blow always have
Jethro42 12.12.11	Rush vs qwe
Zorak 12.12.11	List was very interesting. You should do more like this.
KILL 12.12.11	fuck off qwe you dont like real music priest rock harder then silverchair ever could
Jethro42 12.12.11	qwe has such bad taste in music
ninjuice 12.12.11	I have no idea how Priest have more influence in any way, shape or form than Maiden....
ninjuice 12.12.11	Also Dickison >>>>> Halford. Sure Halford's good, but Dickinson actually has decent range and tone.
BigHans 12.12.11	I have no idea how Priest have more influence in any way, shape or form than Maiden ^ I dont know man how about read the description above.
ShadowRemains 12.13.11	painkiller's drumming destroys maiden's but yeah that was only one album so...
qwe3 12.13.11	maiden all the way
tiesthatbind 12.13.11	Maiden
KILL 12.13.11	fight me qwe
Pharoh 12.13.11	rush vs. maiden
qwe3 12.13.11	no!
geng 12.13.11	I really don't like Iron Maiden, but having seen them live even I have to admit they're a great live band.
Zorak 12.13.11	"rush vs. maiden" are you fucking retarded?
rockandmetaljunkie 12.27.11	Solid list but i disagree with the result. I believe Priest is the greatest metal band after the almighty Sabbath and probably the first pure metal act.
BigHans 02.17.14	classic list bump on riff day
manosg 02.17.14	UP THE IRONS!
mandan 02.17.14	Both bands did their share for metal, but I like Priest more. Still, Maiden is objectively the better band. They had a fairly consistent 7 album run (with some weak songs here or there) while Priest lost their consistency after the first 4 albums.
Friday13th 02.17.14	Nice rundown. I agree with the comparisons, but Priest is my favorite in the end. Again, in no way is Dickinson better than Halford.
DominionMM1 02.17.14	"Priest lost their consistency after the first 4 albums" i don't know about that
facupm 02.17.14	dude imo iconic songs is easily a point for maiden, easily
mandan 02.17.14	piss would agree with me on that. I know how most feel bout RR and SAS so I won't bother to argue on the matter. Having said that, objectively SC was Priest's last album with consistent songwriting, although some will make the case for PK.
BigHans 02.17.14	dude imo iconic songs is easily a point for maiden, easily ^ I dont know about that man. I think its pretty even, and the best Priest songs riff harder than the best Maiden songs.
menawati 02.17.14	mascot 5 points hehe did that help maiden clinch the top spot ?
manosg 02.17.14	lol the outcome is 100% scientific and unbiased. As a professional in that field I concur.
BigHans 02.17.14	Menawati, it may have. I guess Eddie broke the tie.
menawati 02.17.14	eddie got too cuddly tho, early punky eddie is best
BigHans 02.17.14	Eddie on the ST is best Eddie ever followed by Piece of Mind then Killers
SpiritCrusher2 02.17.14	dude imo iconic songs is easily a point for maiden, easily[2]
BigHans 02.17.14	IMO, the most iconic song for Maiden is Run to the Hills. Not the best, but the most iconic. For Priest its Victim of Changes Victim of Changes >>>>>>>>>>>>>Run to the Hills So There You Have It
mandan 05.19.14	Yeah VoC seems to be hailed by many on here as their best song. In any case, SWoD riffs harder than any of Maiden's first 7 imo.
BigHans 07.07.15	GRANDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD CANYONS
BigPleb 07.07.15	Maiden by a hair yeah but that 70's Priest!
BigHans 07.07.15	haha, knew this would suck you in
