goose Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Maiden is like AC/DC. Formulaic, with a certain vibe, but in a good way that works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tangy Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 They are a great band and i dig a few songs but thats it. Much respect but never bought any of their records. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Entre_Perpetuo Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 I only came around to Maiden after listening to The Number Of The Beast with my dad and him sharing his affection and memories of songs like 22 Acacia Avenue and The Prisoner with me. Before that I thought they weren't bad, but were too formulaic and their singer was a little lacking somehow. Wait. Before Number of the Beast they were formulaic, but not after? No no no, before I listened to them with my dad. I don't mean before as in before that album. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyBlaze Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 UP THE IRONS!!!! Acquired taste man. Music like Rush, Maiden, Yes, Floyd etc all an acquired taste. You don't have to like it.Agreed but saying you don’t like them is completely different than saying they’re not a good band. On that note, which bands would qualify as "not good"?

They're a good band who I'm not THAT into other than a handful of songs. So yeah, I'm asking you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

custom55 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 (edited) Tell me why I am right, or wrong. Never 'got' their music. I saw them once in concert along with Dio and Motorhead at MSG and I thought both Dio and Motorhead were better.

Ok, Bruce was back with them at that point. He left in the 90s and was replaced with a terrible live front man in Blaze Bailey. Was just curious if you actually saw the real Maiden or not which you did. Very rare for openers to be better than them even if Dio was one of them.

Rod in Toronto Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 I think there should be a rule that in order to participate in TRF you MUST like Iron Maiden. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReRushed Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Admittedly, I am not well versed but from what I heard they are very talented. I particularly like the first two albums for the punkish quality. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are the parameters of "like"? Like, as in "enjoy", or "appreciate". Find agreeable, enjoyable, or satisfactory.

Rick N. Backer Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Tell me why I am right, or wrong. Because they are a good band. All of the instrumentalists are extremely talented. The songs on the albums from the debut to 7th Son are overwhelmingly good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
