[QUOTE=Kirk's Puppet]Bruce is an idiot for bashing Metallica. I like Iron Maiden but I don't respect Bruce.[/QUOTE]


Guess that means the whole lot of Metallica are [color=white]dumbfuc[/color]ks for bashing Iron Maiden.

I just bought my first Iron Maiden cd. :cool:

I got Killers, which I think is amazing.

Should my next Maiden cd be with Bruce Dickinson as vocals? (so I can respect both vocalists)

^ I got my Maiden cd's in this order:

Number of The Beast
Piece Of Mind
Powerslave
Somewhere In Time
Seventh Son of A Seventh Son
Live After Death
Iron Maiden
Killers
Fear of The Dark
No Prayer For The Dying
Brave New World
Dance Of Death
Rock In Rio
X Factor
Virtual XI

So yeah, I would get a Bruce cd. But it's your decision

HELP !

please someone help me and recommend some easy maiden solos. i've been playing for only 11 months and today i learned aces high solo in 2 hours. it's not that perfect but still sounds not bad.

any suggestions?
thanks

^^^

another "do-able" solo by them would be "Mother Russia", that was the second one i learned by them.

OMG...i was at a used cd shop today and they were playing "best of the beast" well, "virus" came on ...so i walked behind the counter and changed the song and the people were like "what are you doing man" so i pointed at the guy and said "i refuse to listen to a Maiden song without Dickenson on vocals" and the guy said "fair enough" and gave me a high five lol.

Nice one Frail :lol:

Does the cover art on Maiden albums affect the way you listen to them?

Like, for me, BNW is very sort of powerful, crisp and cold, but DOD is more mysterious, bringing out the celtic acoustic bits.

Anyone else find this sort of thing?

^^^^

FrailandBedazzled1979 thanks,

oh... your one of them...

hell of a good.

Actually yes i do. Piece of Mind always seemed kind of dark to me and the cover did too. Powerslave has a brighter cover and the songs just a like that in a way... kinda hard to explain, but I know what you mean.

[QUOTE=Eddie-the-Trooper]oh... your one of them...[/QUOTE]

even the music from the Blayze era wasnt up to Maiden standards. Give or take a handful of tracks from both albums. "man on the edge" is identical to The Number of The Beast, and blood on the worlds hands falls appart after Steve's bass intro. I couldnt have given those albums a more positive attempt the many times ive listened to them. Their voice was gone when Bruce left, and the band did as best they could but it just isnt what id call worthy Maiden material. i know to many people who aggree with me to say otherwise.

does anyone here prefer 'iron maiden' and 'killers' to their other albums.....'iron maiden' is by far my fav maiden album...and i think number of the beast has good songs...but its a tad bit overrated....not as good as everyone says it is...

nope...I prefer Iron Maiden over Killers but NoTB is my favorite album.

i too prefer Iron Maiden over killers. "sanctuary" "remember tomorrow" "transylvania" "iron maiden" those 4 alone make is one of their best.

Iron Maiden kicks all total asshole ninogs

Speaking of covers, what's your guys' favorite Maiden album cover?


I'd say either SIT or Live After Death.

LAD..the booklet is awesome.

I enjoy the NOTB album cover because it implies that Eddie is more powerful than Satan. That makes him almost Jesus!

live after death probley, but from studio albums id go with....Killers, its just strait to the point. Eddie with a hammer and slain foe grabbing onto his shirt, very good.

Blaze rules, X factor is one of my favourite albums and his solo stuff kicks ***.

VXI kind of sucks tho, and agreed on virus

I do like The X Factor much more than Virtual XI. Ive heard his stuff with Wolfsbane but never from his Blayze band...hes a good singer, just i dont think he fit well enought with Maiden.

My birthday was yesterday...now i have cash...too bad I have all the maiden cds and videos. looks like i shall have to go looking for LP's.

[QUOTE=HondoII]My birthday was yesterday...now i have cash...too bad I have all the maiden cds and videos. looks like i shall have to go looking for LP's.[/QUOTE]

Congrats!
now you want to buy: THE SOUNDHOUSE TAPES! and all their singles... :p

[QUOTE=HondoII]My birthday was yesterday...now i have cash...too bad I have all the maiden cds and videos. looks like i shall have to go looking for LP's.[/QUOTE]

Save the cash to see them live.

[QUOTE=sacrifice93.2]Save the cash to see them live.[/QUOTE]

Already did. LA 1/30 - 1/31. Got them bootlegged as well. But if they ever do come back here I'll definitely see them.

Oh and I already have a fake pressed Soundhouse LP

I heard the song doctor doctor not too long ago and I really like it. I was wondering if any one knew if it came on a single? :confused:

Not Maiden, but maiden have covered it, its orginally by U.F.O... its an B side, you can find it on "Best of the B-sides"

i herad rumors that Dianno and Blayze are supposed to team up for a tour? but im skeptical to see if that happens.

PS: i should say that some guy in all leather at a Judas Priest tribute show told me this, so i sktechy about what his soucres are...anyone else heard of it?

I haven't heard anything like that, but it would be interesting to see Blayze and Dianno touring together.

Maybe that guy might know somebody who knows somebody (u get the picture) that is a roadie or something. 'cos guys in leather usually know something

Just got the NMLs EP...wow its awesome. Journeyman Electric version and Paschendale Orchestral version are superb. LMFAO @ Nicko singing Age of Innocence

^^^^

im glad someone reviewed that, i am going to order it this week :) very intrested to hear it!

What is everone's favorite Maiden B-Side song?

Reach Out - helluva good. Too bad "H" cant sing like that anymore...

Reach Out Or Doctor Doctor! they are awsome! :D

EASILY i will pick "Burning Ambition", what great guitar work!!!

Reach out is pretty good, why cant he sing like that nemore.
I think the sheriff of huddersfield and black bart blues are funny.
I love the little bass intro to blood on the worlds hands.

ash

^I have changed my mind The best B side is the electrice version of journeyman.
