Anyways, this discussion has come full circle. I don't think it's terrible to let your anger get the best of you and call someone a ***got or a cock sucker, and I don't think that he's bitter and desperate because of his mild rant about Bruce and Iron Maiden. I think he's just really sick of hearing about it. Last edited by Forward To Death; 10-14-2013 at 02:55 PM. |

Fair enough, I thought he was pretty bitter to start with, although cocaine and alcohol abuse can do that and I am certainly no one to talk when it comes to that. I stand by my feelings regarding any form of homophobic slurs and the use of gay as a pejorative, but I also openly admit that I haven't always felt that way. Getting to know and love LGBT people as dear friends shed a lot of light on that for me. We can agree to disagree on this point. |

Douchey to be sure, but it's premature to judge a guy too harshly just on the basis of a few comments when you don't really know his personal history or the larger historical context that may have influenced him in that moment.

How come "Somewhere in Time" isn't that well-known? I reckon that's their best album. It's glorious! I must admit, however, that I prefer Paul Di'Anno's voice to Bruce's. Iron Maiden isn't one of my favourite bands, but they were one of those that helped me discover there existed hard rock and heavy metal. The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner is a song that just blows me away!

I agree. I don't care much for that synth-driven sound of the album. But it's the music I love: The Loneliness of a Long Distance Runner is a glorious song, which they never play in their gigs; Deja-Vu blows me away, and they never play it either; then there's the great Stranger in a Strange Land and the other songs... I just can't give an explanation; the album just blows my mind!

I think Killers should get more attention than it does (for an Iron Maiden album). It's well just... killer. |
