I'm more impressed with Seventh Son than with Number. Only slightly, but the two are really close in quality. Then again, Iron Maiden is sopmething that takes a while for me to get into. Seventh is the first IM album I liked the first time.

Seventh Son kicks so much ass it isn't even funny.

Pretty much. I still gotta play Powerslave after that, and then I might revisit Number again.

I kind of like Maiden when they're less proggy, so I prefer Powerslave to their later works, but Number of the Beast is inconsistent, so it kind of evens out I guess? But Number of the Beast is also either the first or second Maiden album I ever heard, so there's nostalgia there.

I've mentioned before how I find it annoying when RYM's genre-based charts have the same bandtaking over like half in the top ten. I'm not big on NWOBHM, and I like Maiden, but it's almoat as if the other bands are just novelties in comparison based on that list. I guess it's because most don't bother playing anything else in the scene, like Marley with reggae.

Diamond Head doesn't take up half the top ten.

They only had the one great album, but Lightning to the Nations is deserving of your worship.

Listening to The Number of the Beast for the second time today. Powerslave was perfect. It metalled hard. But this is metalling all over ther place! I can finally appreciate Iron Maiden as one of the greatest bands ever.

OMG this might just be the first time I've listened to this song baked, and I am reminded why this my most listened to album on my Last.FM. Metal, hardcore, metalcore I don't give a ****, this is one of the greatest extreme metal albums of all-time.
