There are lots of threads on this site that have nothing to do with Priest (Vacation/Travel) and two people can have the same name, why is that so hard to unterstand? I'm here to stay so you might as well get use to it. You can put me and this thread on ignore and that would solve any problems, or you can contribute to the thread and list your top ten Maiden albums. lol! Think about it.

If I may I would like to make my opinion on Iron Maiden. They only have a few albums I like to listen from beginning to end: Piece of Mind, Powerslave, The Number of the Beast and Brave New World. Iron Maiden and Killers I like but I only listen at certain times. Somewhere in Time has half good, half not so good songs. Seventh Son of a Seventh Son has only a couple of tracks I dig. No Prayer for the Dying is meh throughout. Fear of the Dark is also meh with only the title track standing out. The X Factor and Virtual XI both suck. Dance of Death is disappointing and A Matter of Life and Death as well if not more so. They are good but not spectacular in my mind. Judas Priest will always be #1 in my book for their albums are great from start to finish (except the Ripper era albums). So for everyone ROCK HARD AND RIDE FREE FOR THE MIGHTY PRIEST!!!

I would have opened the show with The Wicker Man but Be Quick or Be Dead is awssome also.
Been reading some of the post in Maiden vrs. Motorhead thread. BwwAA! HAA!!! Iron Maiden with their three guitar attack and Bruce Dickinson on vox totally dismantels Motorhead in a serious way. Motorhead is pretty good and I admit that but no contest up against the mighty metal onslaught of Iron Maiden in my opinion. Better Vocals, better guitars, better bass and drums, songwriting, slam dunk all the way accros the board. I'm not putting down Motorhead here but I did drive a 100 miles to see them and they didn't show up, oh well, Maiden all the way.

I actually made up the setlist because it was such a hard thing to do, not to defend the band. I was hoping JD would take up the task as well to see what he came up with as a possible 20 best songs from the albums he doesn't rate. It's a legitimate attempt to actually discuss Maiden in this thread instead of all the bullshit that has been going on in it.

I'd have one song. I think that Maiden is now a bad joke. While there is no comparison to someone who runs an internet radio station vs. a radio station of old where you actually had to prove yourself (much like blogs now where every idiot and his brother could have his say provided you knew how to work a computer) I find it hard that you could defend current Maiden. IMO, the current Brian_Evans is a shitdisturber (yeah, two people could be named the same but doubtful). This thread has turned into a farce and I am out of it.
There is but one band to rule them all.

First off...(rolling my eyes back and refering to Brian's nitpicky post) hey jimmy james.........and I'm the one being fucking anal"?? LMMFAO at jimmy!!! PLease.
Second,yes I do like A Matter Of Life And Death dumb shit, and I said its thier best work since the Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son album and it "IS" a great albumfor "Iron Maiden" because Iron Maiden writes shit albums one right after the other,so for Iron maiden it IS a "great album". If it were Saxon that wrote it is would "suck". If Judas Priest wrote it is would "suck" because those bands could do 100% better than Iron Maiden and those bands kick Iron Maiden's ass up between thier shoulders just like I do to you on a regular basis Brian HA!
But for Iron Maiden yes it is a great album because of how much they fuckin suck. Those "8" songs I do like,and yes some of it does remind me of Piece Of Mind and Powerslave in spots but they are nowhere near the "greatness" of albums such as "Iron Maiden,Killers,The Number Of The Beast,Piece Of Mind and Powerslave and even Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son" nowhere even close Brian.
I can easily side A Matter Of Life And Death in with shit albums from 1990 - to 2003's shit album Dance Of Death,I have always given AMOLAD a break because of how shitty Iron Maiden's song writting skills are so what your saying again is a mear joke,you failed yet again shit for brains,face it you can't top me and never will because your not smart enough haha!
Just because I said it was "great" I never said "how great" and for a shit band like Iron Maiden it "is great" I'll take it and it doesn't mean-that I side it in with those elite albums as I've said. Wich is a far cry from a contradiction like you are consistantly dickhead lol! Down The Irons lofao!!!!!

I guess I really don't like this band,I like thier 1980's stuff and that is to me a different band altogether. Its just the song writting that kills it for me,I'll never hear another new Iron Maiden album that I like and can compare to elite albums such as the band's first 5 studio albums. And as for seeing this shit band live no freakin way,if I hate the new album I'll not see em' live and that goes for any band's new album.
This is all opinions again mine isn't the final say but for me personally being a fan of Iron Maiden since 1982 I've been let down with every album starting from 1986's Somewhere In Time" all the way till now,sure I like bits and pieces here and there but I can never get a kick ass product from Iron maiden and its a shame and a let down for me.This band is dead and I have to face it,they will never put out a studio album that I like all the way through again. Down the Irons.

Ok here is a setlist compiled only of songs from 1990 and later. Out of respect I have not included anything from the Blaze Bayley era. This actually only gives me five albums to work with. No Prayer, Fear, Brave New World, Dance Of Death and AMOLAD. I have tried to pick tracks that I think would sound good live. In some cases they are not that great on the album but in a live setting would be cool.
1) Be Quick Or Be Dead
2) The Wicker Man
3) Montsegur
4) Out Of the Shadows
5) Holy Smoke
6) Ghost Of The Navigator
7) Paschendale

Thats cool jimmy,we can't all agree on everything however,I do see why you like Somewhere In Time and not really thrilled about the last 2f the band's career as neither am I. The track that kills me that I freaking HATE is "Heaven Can Wait"...oohhh that song,the chorus spanks of bad ideas and Bruce's voice is extremely irritating when he sings it. AARRGGHH. That song and the chorus to the opening track Caught Somewhere In Time is almost equally irritatiing to me just as the AMOLAD is irritating to almost everyone else.
So how about a Maiden tour with just them playing songs from 1990 -2006? That to me would be absolutely lame.
jimmyjames wrote:
Somewhere In Time is the most under-rated Maiden album. I don't think it has a weak track. Some people might say De Ja Vu, Sea Of Madness or The Loneliness Of The Long Distance Runner are not that great but I reckon they are cool songs. It also has top notch cover artwork and three songs that are Maiden classics, Wasted Years, Stranger In A Strange Land and Heaven Can Wait.

WOW. I'm impressed...somebody who isn't afraid of listing Iron Maiden albums however I am utterly "shocked" at how you list Somewhere In Time over Killers,Piece Of mind,Iron Maiden and Powerslave....from 1986 when it came out till now I'm still trying to figure out what is good about this album I can't take any of it,not even one song but I must have to say to each his own. At least this is "an opinion" and your not saying "oh gaga everything they do is equally excellent". I agree that AMOLAD is boring,even though I do like most of it it isn't anywhere near,not even near thier first 5 studio albums(1980 - 1984).
Whats also interesting is your first 7 albums listed are all from the 1980's and my first 6 albums are also from the 1980's and the rest is all rated as "aeh..ok" to "shit" from both our opionions. I can't even fathom how many people/fans have said the same thing year after year that the 80's material is the band's best and everything else is "ah...ok I guess"...everybody nowadays just wants to see the band "live" because they can't "get anything special" out of thier albums from 1990 till now,they just can't get anything they want from these less than average albums.
I'd like to see how many people would go see Iron Maiden if they were to only play songs from the shitty albums from 1990 No Prayer For The Dying to now with A Matter Of life And Death"...1990 - 2006 no "Number Of The Beast" song no nothing just those albums from 1990 to 2006,I'm sure they would still pack em' in because of how many fan boys out there but I'd still bet there wouldn't be as many people excited about it.

And I'm not the Maiden fanboy,you should dedicate that Twilight Zone song to Brian...after all,any other song by any other band that did not have a guitar solo in it is considered "not good" but if its an Iron Maiden song than it "is good" and doesn't really need one. HA!

We'll have to agree to disagree,no problem but he just basically said that the song Twilight Zone is not a "good" track unless it had an 'excellent" guitar solo in it, the word "good" in the sentence is why I'm right,had he worded it another way then you'd be right....

I didn't shy away from anything. You're just grasping at straws here and you probably don't even know how to play chess. The bass solo thing I said was just a joke. Although Steve Harris does more in that track than most bass players do in ten. Twlight Zone is a solid metal track. And I never said all metal tracks had to have a solo in it to be good. Read the post five more times and maybe just maybe(fingers crossed) you will finally catch on. You can't stump me man, give it up and go back to your littie Saxon cave of a thread.
