That's because they aren't scared to go past the first four frets and actually TRY different things unlike so many bands nowadays. That's their signature sound and they probably wont ever deviate from it. [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by Chain74 from Friday, February 05, 2010 4:32:17 AM)

[J.D. DIAMOND] Friday, February 05, 2010 5:25:05 PM
The bad reviews not only from me but from other reviews you've read are because of these tracks:
Afaid To Shoot Strangers
Fear Is The Key
Childhood's End
Wasting Love
Chains Of Misery
The Apparation
Weekend Warrior
The other 5 tracks are more accepted by the old traditional Iron Maiden fan base.
Be Quick Or Be Dead
From Here To Eternity
The Fugitive
Judas Be My Guide
Fear Of The Dark
I only think "Be Quick or Be Dead" is the only good song on the album,every other song bugs me and I just can't get past them.But I think the 7 tracks above is why you read lots of bad reviews and I can see why as well because to me these songs are horrible,but to each his own.Now are you a fanboy like Brian Evans or do you actually have opinions of songs and albums....they can't all be equal to one another...do you like everything Maiden has done and is there songs by Iron Maiden you think suck? I wanna know.
I'm a true Iron Maiden fan from 1982 and I was there when The Number Of The Beast was released,same goes with Piece Of Mind I was 13 in 1983 and 14 in 1984 when Powerslave came out.And when they released Somewhere In Time in 1986 we were all confused and by 1992 we were sick of half assed albums like Fear Of The Dark and the horrible No prayer For The Dying.Its ok if Iron Maiden evolves and progresses but there is a catch to something when lots of old Iron Maiden fans are bitching about crappy song writting.
Just like Metallica...there are newer fans that think anything they do is great and there are old school fans like me who got into them when they came out back in the day who were spoiled with "excellent" albums with top notch song writting . We all have opinions and mine shouldn't be a final say as to what is good or what is not,I know this...but its aufuly coincidental that there are tons of old school fans that agree with everything I'm saying here.
I am a huge Iron Maiden fan but I want "quality" song writting and to be honest...yeah Seventh Son was an ok record but not better than anything off thier first 5 albums and Brave New World was half good half shit but an alright kinda album for what they had been releasing...and A Matter Of Life And Death was better....but really Iron Maiden haven't come close to a "kick ass" album since Powerslave....26 years ago man.
I have read so many bad reviews of “Fear Of The Dark”, but I don't think it's a bad album at all. It’s a diamond in the rough!
Enjoy!

Oh my freaking god dude, I remember that utterly fucking terrible song from an Iron Maiden EP B-side or soime shit like that,this track may be the worst track Maiden has ever covered or written,this is total crap in my opinion and the Somewhere In Time album fuckin blows man,this year/album 1986 was the downfall of Iron Maiden and snowballed into 25 years of poor song writting.

Lets put all this aside if you have any fuckin balls,lets here you list one Iron Maiden track that you think sucks by Bruce?? Can you name one? Or does everything Bruce has ever done have golden balls hanging off it? Whats the case here dude...
Thats why I'm calling you an Iron Maiden fanboy. Although they have more good songs than bad ones,I can list you lots of Saxon songs that suck ass man,and I admit it.That doesn't make me any less of a Saxon fan,same goes for you and Maiden,think about it.
OK thats enough for me here. I'm leaving this site. This is supposed to be Iron Maiden discussion not Burce bashing.

Spapad, I know you do not know me personally so you have no way of knowing if I'm telling the truth or not. I am.
I know about the collaborations and I thought they got along also. Especially considering they toured together a few times.
Also after my earlier experiences here there is no way I would post something like this if it were not true. Bruce did not
use Rob's name nor say it was directed his way but he did come out on stage and basically deride gays. Not just one comment but several.
If Rob was backstage I'm sure he could hear it. Personally I think this is very disrespectful to him. I'll post the exact day
and venue so that if anyone here went to that concert they can dispute this. He did the same thing to Ozzy during the Ozzfests that he was on
so why not Rob. It probably is a case of what J.D. said but he does it over and over. This is why I hate him that's all.
Fri. Aug. 11 2000
Post Gazette Pavillion
Burgettstown, Pa. (outside Pittsburgh)
Iron Maiden (Queensryche)(Halford)
I went to the same show 12 days later at Blossom music center.
Watched Halford, watched Queensryche, left.
Considering Rob and Bruce are friends, and have even collaborated on an excellent song, perhaps you read the situation too deaply.
Just my opinion, which dont mean much, but I can't see Bruce slammin Rob like what you said. As I said, my opinion, but I don't see it.
Budred wrote:

In 2000 I went to see Iron Maiden and Halford. When Maiden came out to the
stage Bruce started ranting about gays. He was talking about how wrong it is,
how we don't need gays around, and basically derogatory comments like that.
Even though he is entitled to his opinion saying this knowing full well Rob is probably
backstage and within earshot is beyond disrespectful. The first two times I saw Priest
were in 81' and 82' with non other than Maiden opening up. This is what turned me onto
them. I became a fan of their's. My point is that Priest took them out when they were no
body's, gave them exposure, and probaly were responsible for their early sucess. Then
when he has a chance to return the favor what does he do. Tells his audience how bad
it is to be gay. I can't help but think this can only hurt not help Rob. From that moment on
I have hated and always will hate Bruce Dickenson.

Yes you are correct jimmy.However,I'm not claiming that "I am right" and Brian is wrong,I'm just stating facts of opinions I've gathered throughout the last 20 years,wich is still only "opinions" we know. Now Brian doesn't like the Blaze era and neither do I but I am just courious as to hear if he doesn't like an Iron Maiden song by Bruce? I mean opinions are opinions your right,but if one individual even here on this forum claims to like everything Rob has done may have that right to that opinion but come on...it goes further than that and pushes that individual into "fan-boyism" and thats what I'm claiming Brian Evans to be.
Just as I've seen on this forum from time to time about Rob and how everything and anything he does is top notch blah blah blah it makes that person's opinion invalid while comparing opinions to other fans because the other fans are extreamly more "picky" while grading an album's material.
Take a look at hellrider for example...he is sweating bullets waiting for this next Priest album and its not the wait thats killing him,its the anticipation as to weather this record will be a quality classic british metal album or another Nostradamus,he isn't just waiting for this album knowing it will turn out like he and I want it to turn out like,he is waiting to confirm by first listen if he is going to like this record or not.
Just like right before Nostradamus was released he and I were pulling for a Painkiller...but sadly it did not happen,if he and I were like Brian Evans...there would be no worries because then Priest could put out "ANYTHING" and we would like it no matter what. And that is a "fan-boy".I don't believe that he likes all Iron Maiden songs across the board(with Bruce),I think he is just obsessed with the band's name,album covers and the hype of Iron Maiden because everybody else likes them,if he does then I don't belive he has an opinion of quality songs...if it says Iron Maiden and its Bruce singing,its going to be just as good as Piece Of Mind,or Number Of The Beast and I think that is bullshit,I get sick of fanboys like this.So I'm not claiming that my opinion is the right one jimmy,I'm just calling him out on being an irritating "fan-boy",thats all.
Guys, this argument is stupid, one of you likes some of Iron Maidens albums, one of you likes all of them. Debating who are better musicians, singers etc is all a matter of opinion, you can't be right or wrong.

There ya go Vail...Flash Of The Blade,1984 I bought Powerslave the day it came out as I was already an established Iron Maiden fan from 1982 when I heard The Number Of The Beast album. Back in late 1984 when Powerslave was released,it was thier 5th studio album and they were on top of the world..next to Judas Priest that is,but they were kick ass back then.
A crappy Maiden album back in those days was unheard of. Now-a-days a "great kick ass classic album" is unheard of from this once great band. I'll give them only credit for the last album A Matter Of Life And Death even though thier 2 hit singles are utterly "shitty" in Different World and Benjamin Bragg...2 horrible tracks the band chose to display for the fans...why I have no clue...they could of hidden those 2 shit tracks and replaced them with any of the remainding 8 songs wich are actually worth a crap. But from 1986 Somewhere In Time.....till 2003 Dance Of Death...Iron Maiden is utterly overrated. They are overrated now anyways.
1980 - Iron Maiden debut
1981 - Killers
1982 - The Number Of The Beast
1983 - Piece Of Mind
1984 - Powerslave
Nothing that Maiden has done since can touch these first 5 studio albums,nothing at all. Seventh Son(1988) was "ok" and Brave New World is half ok,the last album(AMOLAD) was getting better but really guys...nothing comes even close to the quality of songs from the bands first 5 studio LPs,not even close. Everyone has opinions thats cool,but throughout the years talking to oldschool Maiden fans they all say exactly what I am saying right here.Its all the newer fan-boys that charrish every track they do as if it is as good as the first 5 albums.Blahhhh!! You gettin fired up yet Brian?? LOFL!!!!!!! [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by Vaillant 3.0 from Tuesday, February 02, 2010 12:01:06 AM)

This song's for the really really REALLY serious Iron Maiden fans. At least the ones who can discern good quality songs from crappy ones like Blood Brothers. Enjoy!!

I said that I didn't care for the Blaze era so all this about me liking everything Iron Maiden has done is false and CALLING ME A FAN-BOY IS FALSE AND just shows how you are making things up to use against me. Like I said this is for serious Iron Maiden discussion only (hint). Bruce is top notch and way better than that guy in Saxon and second to only Rob Halford, a close second. Iron Maiden is not overrated. Three headed monster in guitarist. Top notch drums and bass. I'll get fired up if that the way you want it! Joker! [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by J.D.

Fucking terrible.Actually I'm glad you posted this track because it shows that a top notch vocalist and bassist write shit songs and never finish an album with exellence. Alls you have in Maiden is Steve Harris...he is better than Ian Hill,but Rob is better than Bruce(duh) Ken & Glen are better than all 3 guitarists in Maiden and Scott is a better drummer than Nicko.There you go fan boy.... All you rant about is the musicianship of the Iron Maiden members,thats all you really can say about them because of how overrated they are.Now...weren't you about to "get fired up"??

Maiden is one of my top favorites (along with Priest). You are right, they are great!! I guess the only band I know of that holds a candle to them would be Priest. Two very different but great bands.

Thought I'd start it off with Blood Brothers because all us serious Iron Maiden fans are brothers in metal. Up The Irons!
I left this comment elsewhere but I'll leave it here for (serious Maiden) fans.
