I saw them live and they only played Wasted Years as the closer
>>130654934I spent hours studying their 80s album covers and looking for cryptic symbols, SIT is my fav. Even that first album with Eddie wandering around the streets, no brownoids or cctv either. Just Eddie looking to murder. Better times.
>>130654934It is.

It's perfect if you remove Deja Vu

>>130655088cringe>>130655096CAN I PLAY WITH FAGNESS
>>130655010The tour before this current one of 25/26 they did 5 or 6 of this album. Including Alexander, which was never played live.
>>130654934For me it's Powerslave
>>130655406Peak was Powerslave, but SiT did mark their change to a more mature songwriting. Many of the SiT songs I thought were cringe when I was a kid, but can listen to as an adult ("stop wasting your years," etc.). But PSlave is kind of embarrassing to listen to openly when you're a grownup and there's a lot of filler. But for the defining Maiden album, Powerslave & Live After Death were their ne plus ultra.
>>130656575You're listining to Maiden and metal overall for the words? You're very grown up, wow
>>130656607We can't all be illiterate subhumans; some of us are cursed.
>>130656626Whend you discover this place? Whyd you leave reddit?
>>130656668I discovered it in 2005, but never logged on until 2020. I've never used Reddit so I cannot answer your second question.
>>130654934true. wasted years and alexander the great are their best songs. the bridge on the alexander makes me rock hard
>>130656718Well arent we all glad you logged in
>>130656778I don't know about all, but the one guy was interested. Perhaps that was you?
>>130654934Yes. Very low number of fillers on this one.
>>130654934The Adrian Smith songs are the best.
>>1306571400 to be precise
>>130655402They played Alexander the Great, Caught Somewhere in Time, Heaven Can Wait, Stranger in a Strange Land and Wasted Years when I saw them on that tour.
>Iron Maiden is peakFTFY
>>130657221What about The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner?
>>130654934>>130655096Progressive wankery bullshit. I like it simple and HEAVY.
>>130658291Punk maiden is best maiden
>>130658291Running Free makes me want to do 2 rails, get in the car, get on the highway and do 100https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U1AcjONu56M
>>130657288Nop, that was only played once in 1986 and never again.>>130658291Based simpleton retard. Bless your soul
>>130658291based. songs that aren't 8+ minute long shitty epics with bruce's opera singing, the good ol' days.
>>130658291Iron Maiden>Killerswhat a downgrade the sequel was
>>130658291>>130658898Retards. Phantom of the Opera is over 7 minutes long and there's basically two sappy ballads in Remember Tomorrow and Strange World.
>>130654934On the old Burzum site Varg said this is his favorite album of all time
>>130658291>try to go back to basics>make the worst classic era album
>>130662126I don't get the hate
>>130662272Its not as bad as people generally claim, but coming down from the epic run of 5 big albums with the intention of big live shows and big, epic songs, it seems like a downsizing.If there were a few punchier, more to the point songs on No Prayer it wouldnt have been so hated, but the quality just wasnt there.
>>130654934AAAAALEXANDER THE GREAT
>>130662126Mother Russia is one of their most underrated songs
>>130662328A North M*cedonian once shouted at me for the IN A PART OF ANCIENT GREECE line.
Fuck you I love Maiden
>Iron SHIT>SHITler>SHIT of the Beast>Piece of SHIT>PowerSHIT>SHIT in time>7th Son of a SHIT SHIT>No SHIT for the Dying (of SHIT)>Fear of the SHITOld Maiden sucked for the most part, but at least the Blaze albums were good.
>>1306659400/10 bait
>>130654934
>>130665940Angel and the Gambler is their best song, amirite?
>>130666470lol no, but basically it's a decent enough song. The problem with it is it goes on for way too fucking long just repeating the same line over and over. I remember the songs on Brave New World having the same problem to an obnoxious degree
