J2112YYZ Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 My second favorite band after Rush. The material they came out with from 1982-1988 is fantastic and is one of my favorite album streaks ever done by a band. The 90s was a shakey time for them though since they changed musical directions and Bruce left for awhile to do a solo career. Since he's come back in 2000 they've put out some really great stuff as well. One of the few bands that I think writes stuff today that's on par with their classic material. I like the old stuff better but there's no doubt that Maiden has been pushing themselves to do the best job possible with their last four albums. As far as favorite songs go, much like Rush i've got far too many ones I love so it's hard to pick. My favorite songs off each album: Iron Maiden -- Phantom Of The Opera Killers -- Murders In The Rue Morgue The Number Of The Beast -- Hallowed Be Thy Name Piece Of Mind -- Where Eagles Dare and To Tame A Land Powerslave -- Rime Of The Ancient Mariner Somewhere In Time -- Caught Somewhere In Time Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son -- Moonchild and Infinite Dreams No Prayer For The Dying -- Run Silent Run Deep Fear Of The Dark -- Be Quick Or Be Dead The X Factor -- The Sign Of The Cross Virtual XI -- Lightining Strikes Twice Brave New World -- Ghost Of The Navigator Dance Of Death -- Paschendale A Matter Of Life And Death -- Brighter Than A Thousand Suns The Final Frontier -- Mother Of Mercy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeddyRulz Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 All of the albums from the Bruce Dickinson years are fantastic - not that he was the deciding factor in making them fantastic. I give the credit for the awesomeness of the band to the songwriting of Steve Harris and Adrian Smith. Their lyrics are particularly great - full of literary references. My favorite songs include: The Number of the Beast Run to the Hills Flight of Icarus The Trooper To Tame a Land Aces High Caught Somewhere in Time The Loneliness of the Long-Distance Runner Stranger in a Strange Land Deja Vu Can I Play With Madness?

micgtr71 Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Maiden was my first concert ever. World Slavery Tour 1985. It is as impossible to list a favorite song as it is to list a Rush tune. Right now, it is probably Still Life, though it is often something off the first album or Killers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drumnut Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 I'm a big Maiden fan, I can't say I have a "favorite" Maiden song or album. I have a huge collection of Maiden vinyl, unfortunately, The Soundhouse Tapes is not among them. I have 7 and 12 inch singles on black vinyl, picture discs and, shaped discs. One of the most sought after pieces in my collection is the shaped "The Trooper" single. Back when I was collecting, I shopped at a record store who's owner fed my bad collecting habit, if he could get his hands on something, he usually set it aside to see if I was interested before he put it in the bins. I wish I had been more into collecting Rush vinyl back then, who knows what I would have in my collection these days...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picture Moving Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Great band, one of my favourites. So many great albums, a dodgy decade through the 90`s and then a great return with Brave New World. IMO, A Matter Of Life And Death is up there with their best releases! Rime of The Ancient Mariner is my favourite song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xanadude69 Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 "Hallowed Be Thy Name" is probably my favorite but there are so many good songs from these guys. Number of the Beast, Piece of Mind and Powerslave is a fantastic 3 album runs. one of the best of all time. few bands could put out such good and consistent albums in a row like Maiden.
