I will concede that Powerslave does suffer from a dip in quality in the middle, there's no doubt about that.

Album Rating: 5.0

i would also like to add that 2 of the final 3 on here barely average 3:30 minutes in length

Album Rating: 4.0

Maybe Flash Of The Blade is bottom 80's maiden, but everything else on Powerslave is pretty fucking solid.

Album Rating: 5.0

of course it's solid, it's 80's Maiden.....just not as good as most of the other 80's Maiden

Album Rating: 4.5

80's Maiden beats everything else, just nothing can compete.

Album Rating: 5.0

agreed, best heavy metal band ever

Album Rating: 4.5

Well over a course of that many albums in one decade at the very least!



I always mention Revelations but Bruce's vocals truly shine through on that song man.

Album Rating: 5.0

Revs is top 3 Maiden for me.....just an incredible tune

Album Rating: 4.5

Hmmmm



Revs

Hallowed Be Thy Name

Seventh Son?



That's probably my top 3...

Album Rating: 5.0

i agree with 2 of your 3.........7th son not even close for me, as good as it is

Album Rating: 4.5

It's so hard to decide but Hallowed and Revs are dead certs.



I always interchange between SS, Caught Somewhere in Time and Aces High.

Album Rating: 5.0

Caught Somewhere, 2 Minutes, Children, and Rime are all candidates for my 3 spot

Album Rating: 4.5

Rime as well yeah damn, hail Maiden m/

Album Rating: 5.0
