I've been having this debate with my brother for 25 years.... It will ALWAYS be Priest for me! No other band makes me as happy as Priest does. Even on my worst day, listening to them puts a smile on my face
 PRIEST RULES! |

Priest. Been listining to iron maiden since i was very young as well. Glad to see they both play the Fender strats! (and many other gorgeous guitars i'd very much like to have myself). But Yeah Judas Priest.

mmmmmm..........HATE THIS QUESTION!....hahahaha.....love them both.....but i`ll go for Maiden first....maybe because i love the band members attitude on stage way more than Priest`s one....though they have an AMAZING! show...i rather the colorfull killer concerts Maiden can give us.....for the rest, i think i`ll cut my right arm for Judas and Maiden`s songs....they are absolutely brilliant with music, lyrics, and they both put a lots of SOUL on it....you can tell when you hear them.....  |

Priest has definately been around longer, Maiden tours more.
Either or, both kick ass!
Had both bands posters up in my teenage room 30 years ago. (along with Venom and Slayer)
Both are a hell of a lot better than any hair bands (or any other band!)
although Maiden did have some sucky years, Priest always kept it up!

I have seen this topic on many rock sites. I have to say that I love both of them. Each has its own specific sound so I cannot see how I would pick one over the other. I have seen both of them live several times and again I will say that I love both of them.

Well with such a large post i was expecting a spelling error or two.... Meh, you all know what I meant.

All else, I agree. Rob over Dickinson any day for me. And Steve is a bass god.
| | | devils_child wrote: | | Janick... *ewww*.. LOL... I'm pretty sure i have mentioned this before. But i will say again why Priest is my number one. First of all, the sounds of both bands are different.
Reason why i like Priest better is because they have continually evolved, Maiden has their sound, and it doesn't really vary.
Priest on the other hand are pioneers... They are risk takers. I'm waiting for the next Maiden album to see what they can pull out. I have loved the past 3 albums, and play them more than i do their earlier works.
OK... Moving onto the vocalists.... Rob is the clear favourite. The first time i heard Priest i fell in love... His voice, the screams... Ohh i get shivers just thinking about it!
I will be honest the first couple of times i listened to Maiden i was not fan of Bruce's vocals..It took a while to grow on me. Now i love his voice, it suits the style of music they play.
Musicianship.... Well my love for Steve goes beyond the physical... Yes, DC can think beyond his gorgeous appearance. I love the hard, driven, rythmic... "galloping" bass lines more. That doesn't mean that Ian is a worse player, he just plays the style that suits his band.... Ian's style has varied alot more as well.. Compare Stained Class to say.... Defenders Of the Faith. Very different. Same goes for Glenn and KK.... they can play solid rock riffs, or play some ultra heavy shed-tastic (made up a new word) stuff. Dave and Adrian... very awesome players, but again... they always stick to their sound.
It all boils down to the way both bands have evolved.... Simple.... you either love Priest for it or you hate them.... I'm guessing that every metal fan out there could pick at least one Priest album they like, because they have touched on so many different styles... |

Obviously. Having a family member in the Polish Navy is the ultimate qualification for a heavy metal guitarist.
I bet Malmsteens dad was at least an admiral.
