I "disagree" fully. What every good "heavy metal" track should have is an excellent guitar solo. As you don't know the black metal thrash metal or death metal genre/scene,you don't understand these styles of metal so you need to type "heavy" before typing "metal" when you talk about having these needed guitar solos. Guitar solos do not fit in every song of every style of "metal" at all no matter what rubbish you can come up with here Brian.
The fact is that they don't belong in every song of every style of "metal".This is the area where your extremely weak at understanding.Its like asking why isn't there any guitar solos in most punk?
What about Breaking The Law and what about "Take On The World" by JP...they do not have a guitar solo in them,are they not good? What about United? No guitar solo in it.
Or how about Love Bites Brian? Love Bites does NOT have a guitar solo in it,only harmony bends that couldn't come close to be considered a "guitar solo"...so is Love Bites lame becaise of your philosophy?
Long?? Plodding?? Predictable?? Whatever. You just don't know good metal when you hear it. Ha!
Nice Rainmaker video, I listened to the part between 2:05 and 2:28 about 50 times! What every good metal track should have is an excellent guitar solo. Murray is sick!

I try. I really do. Just wasted 7+ minutes of my life, though. I am all for Nosta against anything Maiden has done of late save for one....with the goofy video.

Out of the Shadows from the 2006 "A Matter Of Life and Death" album. This sounds just as good as older Maiden and if you ask me it could have easily come from 1982's "The Number Of the Beast" album. Same quality vocals, drums, guitars, songwriting, ect.
