TwentyOneTwelve Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 Got into Maiden this year and they are now one of my favourite bands. I'd agree with them being the best true heavy metal band. One of them most consistent too. I think when they do longer more complex songs, they're at their best. Rime of the Ancient Mariner and When the Wild Wind Blows spring to mind. Surely as a group, one of the strongest lyric writing teams ever...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spindrift82 Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 I can't understand how you can state that everything from 1992-1999 (Fear Of The Dark through the Blaze Years) is good, yet state that the 'last few albums are complete garbage'? IMO, they've been on a roll with the last four albums. I'm so glad that we've got one of the best bands back, creating great music like they used to!

Nate2112 Posted December 30, 2010 Author Share Posted December 30, 2010 Ive been really into Somewhere in Time and The Final fronteir because they sound really Prog. Metal but Maiden hasn't made a song i don't like. I also got into Fear of the Dark my 2nd favorite album. I love Be quick or be dead!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what the rest of us are here to do. Oh, I totally think he can voice whatever he wants. Probably a true Maiden fan. I would totally understand an oldschool fan not digging the new stuff nearly as much, but to call it 'garbage' is going a way bit far. I myself hold the first seven Maiden albums on a golden pedestal in my pantheon of rock & metal albums. I really like the last two albums (TFF more than AMOLAD), but I connect with Brave New World and even Dance Of Death much more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spindrift82 Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 I can understand that, and even can appreciate it from Rush fans (who haven't liked the last few albums.) But calling it garbage? That's an insult to all the people who bought the album and enjoyed it! Listen, just because you think the older stuff is better, doesn't mean that the people who enjoy the newer stuff are wrong. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and to enjoy what they enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

micgtr71 Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 I think that the X Factor is a great collection of songs and would love to hear it with Bruce on vocals. The few songs that I have heard him sing were amazing, especially Sign of the Cross. No offense to Blaze, I just don't care for his voice. When Bruce left, I was hoping that they would get Dianno back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Master of Puppets has to put Metallica into the mix, for the same reason. But for the sheer number of great songs, you've got to give it up for Maiden.

Metal but Maiden hasn't made a song i don't like. I also got into Fear of the Dark my 2nd favorite album. I love Be quick or be dead!!! Be Quick Or Be Dead is a very good song and the album has some other decent ones but FOTD is Maiden's weakest effort. There's just too much on the album that is not up to Maiden standards. You could tell it was time for a change/break after listening to that album. Which did happen with Bruce leaving and them getting Blaze Bayley for two albums. Most of what I listen to from Maiden is between '82-'88. That album steak is second to none as far as i'm conserned. I like the first two albums but I just can't get into Di'Anno's voice that much at all, so I don't listen to them that often. I always thought Di'Anno's voice didn't fit Maiden at all but Dickinson's voice was the perfect fit for the music. Except for Geddy and Dio no vocalist fits and defines their bands sound better.

Though I said i'm not a big fan of Di'Anno's voice I think i'll give the first two albums a listen again since I haven't heard them in awhile. When time passes your opinions sometimes change on things so i'll see what happens. Did anyone see them on the tour they did last summer? It was an excellent show but I was kind irked that they decided to make the first 75 mins of the show, with the exception of 'Wrathchild', all material from 2000 to now. It was cool for them to do something different with the set, but there's really something missing when you go to see Maiden and they play nothing off of POM, PS, SIT and SSOASS.
