07.04.21 | Cmon now, what’s wrong with Maiden? |

07.04.21 | Eh, I was just snarking. I need to get my dorkiness out somehow. 😉
But since you were rather polite, I will just say that I have more of a hatred of what they've been turned into and fetishized as rather than the music itself, though it's not music I've been fond of since high school. While I owned Number of the Beast, Piece of Mind, and Powerslave as a high school freshman in 2007, my enjoyment fizzled out within a year and a half or so. Then I wound up in YouTube comment sections reading about how Maiden is Real Music and All The Pop Fans Who Disagree Shall Be Sent to the Gallows. I tried to go back to the music, but it touched me with all the impact of flat Coca-Cola. I panicked.
Since then, I've come to the realization that I like them far more as an influence than in and of themselves. Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth, Deftones, System of a Down -- quite some fine bands they've influenced. But I can do without ever having to hear Maiden again, personally. But that's just me, and I'm bitter like that. :-) |

07.04.21 | Hey that’s cool. The amount of touring they’ve done and you rarely see canceled or postponed shows. You never see past members talk bad about the band. Never hear about drug and alcohol abuse within the band. Just hard work and dedication. I really respect how much of a class act they are and have been for the last 40+ years. Oh yeah and the music is great! 😎 |

07.04.21 | It’s gonna be their charity single “We Or The World”.
Great list! It would be my list if 9 and 10 and then 6 and 5 traded places. |

07.04.21 | I know a lot of people prefer Killers over the debut. The production is obviously way better on Killers but songwriting is better on the debut. I’ll take songwriting over production any day |

07.04.21 | Hopefully a new album, and on 15 we get the first single... Book of Souls was admittedly a great album for a band 30 years into their careers, but I wasn't sucked in |
Titan
07.04.21 | Somewhere In Time 2
Bring back those guitar synths! |
Titan
07.05.21 | Apparaently, it stands for Writing On The Wall. And my guess is that July 15 will bring us album details along with a single. |
