Posts for 'dance of death'

well, i love maiden and i understand how thier riffs can seem repetitive but even on dance of death they have amazing songs, like No More Lies, Montsegur, Dance of Death, and Paschendale. all awesome songs. i think they are far from over and the six man lineup has brought a lot more into the fill. i think they should let nicko write a lot on the next album because new fronteir was really good and he could maybe write some not so stale riffs.

Posted by Metal-Assmonkey on 11/11/04 @ 11:42 PM Post subject: Re: Up the Irons!

ok. for starters, i think that me or enzio are best for maiden questions. anyways, they have 13 albums. i will list them and tell you which ones are the best and who sang.

Iron Maiden(1980)-Paul DiAnno
Killers(1981)-Paul DiAnno
The Number of the Beast(1982)-Bruce Dickinson
Piece of Mind(1983)-Bruce
Powerslave(1984)-Bruce
Somwhere in Time(1986)-Bruce
7th Son of a Seventh Son(1988)-Bruce
No Prayer for the Dying(1991)-Bruce
Fear of the Dark(1992)-Bruce
The X Factor(1995)-Blaze Bailey
Virtual XI(1998)-Blaze Bailey
Brave New World(2000-Bruce
Dance of Death(2003)-Bruce

here is the order i reccomend

Golden era: you can buy all of these in any order, but get these for sure:

# of the Beast
Piece of Mind
Powerslave
Somwhere in time (worst in the golden age)
Seventh son

21st century maiden (six memebers, 3 guitars)
this is a return to the golden era, the best albums '88

Brave new world
Dance of Death

The others: not as good as the other 7 albums, but maidens first two efforts are really great once yoyu get past dianos vocals) so her is the reccomended order:

Iron Maiden
Killers
Fear of the dark
no prayer for the dying
X factor
Virtual XI

glad you like maiden, gary, dood, dud, vodka, whatever your name is. enjoy, metal up your ass, and UP THE IRONS!

well, I already have Number of the Beast, Brave New world, the X-Factor, Edward the Great and Dance of Death
Iron Maiden for me is somewhat ambivalent,
some of their songs are really great (most off Brave new world, 1st half of Dance of death)
some really suck (like Age of Innocence or most stuff on Edward the Great)
so I don´t really know what to think about it...

PS: the Beatles SUCK!
edward the great blows. all greatest hits do. the x factor was a well written album, but i found that without bruce after so many albums there wasnt the same charm. i think you need all the golden albums, beast thru seventh son, and BNW and DOD wich you already own. i dont bother with the 90's albums much, because without adrian they werent great, and withou bruce it was just not maiden. so if you get the 7 albums i listed that is pretty much all you need, and the first 2 (Iron Maiden and Killers) are pretty good even without bruce. overall, i think that NO PRAYER FOR THE DYING, FEAR OF THE DARK, and VIRTUAL XI are the only albums that you shouldnt buy. the thing i have to say about maiden is that while they have ups and downs, they have constantly remained metal.

Posted by Banaani on 11/13/04 @ 07:24 AM Post subject: Re: Up the Irons!

Powerslave and Seventh Son are the best albums for me. Other albums have many good songs, but they still can't beat those. Brave New World and Dance of Death are very good too.

metal-assmonkey - i really don't like dance of death much. i guess i've gotten plenty sick of maiden. rehashing the riffs... and i guess my ears have had enough after all these years. btw, do you know that the riffs in maiden's "afraid to shoot strangers" and "revelations" are both ripped of near-exactly from songs in the wishbone ash album 'argus'?

Posted by Metal-Assmonkey on 11/12/04 @ 12:06 AM Post subject: Re: Up the Irons!

i think so too. i think that beast is comparable to puppets, powerslave to justice, and piece of mind to ride. i happen to like piece of mind best tho. you should check it out. oh, and btw, how do you like rime of the ancient mariner on powerslave? im listenin to it right now, i think it is fucking brilliant. anyways, you should really check out paschendale on dance of death. it is definatley thier best. just say the word and ill pm you the lyrics.

Posted by cupidstunt on 01/25/05 @ 04:59 PM Post subject: Re: Metallica vs Iron

yeah bruce is a far better vocalist... i also think maiden are better to their fans and steve harris a fucking awesome bassist... maiden definately draws close to topping metallica IMO but they are not quite there... i think metallica's next album might be the coup de grace in this debate though... i mean Dance of Death kicked arse over St. Anger, if maiden release another album and it tops the new 'tallica album... yeah.. on the other hand if the new 'tallica album kicks so much arse it cant be comprehended they become untouchable.

i'll leave out the obvious metallica, megadeth, iron maiden(anything... same style through out until recently), dream theater etc.

i dont know if i agree with you on the iron maiden thing. i think brave new world comperes very closeley to somewhere in time sound wise. and i think dance of death is cousin to powerslave. i dont think they have changed at all really, other than now they have 3 guitars and steves bass sounds a little more subdued. otherwise they are the same crazy fucks we were introduced to 20+ years ago.

a word to the wise with iron maiden. start with the classic lineup stuff. that has bruce on vocals and adrian as guitar.

The Number of the Beast
Piece of Mind
Powerslave
Somewhere in Time
7th Son of a 7th Son
Brave New World
Dance of Death

these are all great albums. i have to admit bruce's high voice takes a while to get used to but once you get used to it you will love it. and it took me a while to get used to the totally audible bass which is very clear in almost every song. im sure youll like it ifyou give them a solid chance.

Initialy i would say metallica are better, however Metallica havent written any real metal since 87 (cmon guys black album onwards isnt metal at all). However Maiden have kept to pretty much the same style and are one of the few bands who have been playing true metal for a quarter of a decade. Maiden were around since before tallica and they're still here now. Dance of Death kicks st anger hands down. Drums i would say Nicko is a hell of a lot better. Vocals i personaly prefer James, though i think both vocalists suit their bands(bruce wouldnt sound right in metallica, james wouldnt sound right in maiden). Im not sure why but overall tallica are my fav band.

Posted by Saint_Anger on 11/13/04 @ 07:17 PM Post subject: Re: Up the Irons!

I dig the Iron Maiden, Killers, Piece Of Mind, Somewhere In Time, No Prayer For The Dying, The X-Factor and Dance Of Death albums very much...
Fave songs are: Strange World, Purgatory, The Prisoner, Revelations, Powerslave, Caught Somewhere In Time, Only The Good Die Young, Run Silent Run Deep, Judas Be My Guide, Blood On The World's Hands, Como Estais Amigos, Blood Brothers and Paschendale (ofcourse this list changes once in a while...)
Best singer: Paul Di'Anno, Blaze is great too and Bruce gets a little boring after a while, but he is still the best voice for Maiden's songs
I think Clive Burr is a better drummer than Nicko and Smith-Murray-Gers are the best string-team alive!!
Big respect for Steve for his superb songwriting! ;D

nah, they dont have that many. but i can say that only 2 of the current 6 are still original, and both have never left. here is a basic setup theyve had:

Vocals:Dianno (Iron Maiden,Killers), Dickinson (Beast-Fear of the dark) Blaze Bailey (X factor, Virtual XI) Dickonson(BnW, DoD-Current)

Bass-Steve Harris (Iron Maiden-Current)

Guitar1-Dave Murray (Iron Maiden-Current)

Guitar2-Dennis Stratton (Iron Maiden), Adrian Smith (Killers-7th Son, BnW-Current) Janick Gers (No Prayer-Current)

Drums-Clive Burr (Iron Maiden-Beast) Nicko McBrian (Piece of Mind-Current)

CURRENT LINE UP:

Vocals-Dickonson
Guitar1-Murray
Guitar2-Gers
Guitar3-Smith
Bass-Harris
Drums-McBrian

Di
scography: (studio albums only)

ok, im a maiden freak and have way too much free time.

The Number of the Beast
Piece of Mind
Powerslave

buy all 3 at once. that will allow you to get some of thier best work without having to search. there isnt a bad song at all. i would reccomend buying the albums 7th son of a 7th son and Somwhere in time after those. then you can get the 2 new albums, Brave new world and Dance of Death, both which are equal in quality to the erlier stuff like Powerslave. you can pick up the first 2 albums as well, (iron maiden. Killers) though they feture dianno on vocals, who isnt even in the same legue as bruce but lyrics just waste time between solo's anyways. aftr that have free riegn tho i would reccomend staying away from most of the 90's albums. the only on worth owining is live at donnington. also for ive maiden at thier best, pick up rock in rio on DVD. actually, that would be the best place to start and go from there, because that lets you preveiw tons of songs at thier best without having to spend $100. hope this helps.

ive said it before and ill say it again. i used to be the biggest metallica fan ever, i wouldnt even listen to critisism about st. anger. then i decided to buy a little album called The Number of the Beast. maiden didnt become my favorite band until i had 7 albums and rock in rio. then they pushed metallica aside. the more i got into other bands the more i realized that metallica was great, but not the best. i own and love every album with the exception of st. anger. this is an album i have swung back and forth on so many times i cant count. but now i am coming to the realization that with this album, metallica has lost thier identity. load and reload were still metallica, they still had that sound to them. not any more. metallica is like my 5th favorite band right now. they have to have a PERFECT album to bring them back to #2. the whole reason i say that is because maiden is, always has been, and always will be METAL. Metallica has changed everything they once stood for. i still like them, and puppets and justice remain my 2 favorite albums of all time, but i still pick maiden. not to mention that Brave New World and Dance of Death ABSOLUTLEY KILLED all doubt that maiden was back. metallica needs an album to do that, i dont care what style they use as long as it is well written.

Iron Maiden are kick-ass.
Dance of Death was a killer album.

my collection is:

Powerslave
Edward the Great
Dance of Death

All great albums....just i hate the song "number of the beast" and "can i play with madness" yuk!

Yeah man Dance of Death is way better than st Anger, but overall i prefer tallicas music. I think it would be great if metallica could write an album to match up to maidens latest but i dont think tallica can compete with maiden at songwriting anymore.

Heres a thread for my 2nd fav band :) :). Anyone else like Maiden. My album collection is......

Iron maiden
Number of the beast
Powerslave
Seventh son of a seventh son
Fear of the Dark
Live at Donington
Brave new world
Rock in Rio (DVD)
Dance of death

Im tryna get tickets for the maiden gig in Paris :o

What you guys think of maiden?

iron maiden came out in 1979, and yet they still bring out amazing albums. dance of the death wasnt to good. bu brave new world. wow. unbelievable.

metallica have been out since 1981, ayet they still havnt made a proper "Metallica" album from the early days since 1991

actually maiden formed in 1976 to be more accurate. but most of thier 90's albums were downers. (cept a few songs)

and dance of death not great? 1 WORD: PASCHENDALE!!! the single greatest song ever written. yes, i like it better than To Live is to Die. bareley.

hey guys guess what, by 2007 rap will be dead. know why?

The New Album from Metallica-Guaranteed to be one of the best they have ever made

Iron Maiden-Dance of Death and Bave new world are the best albums they have made since seventh son.

Megadeth-The System has failed was thier beast album since the Highly Acclamed Rust in Peace.

that proves that these three gods of metal are making the best shit they have since the golden age of metal (1982-1992)

i find "the small hours" pretty creepy, as well as a few maiden songs like dance of death and stuff.

Posted by scofield on 12/04/04 @ 09:35 PM Post subject: Re: rap distrupting rock

Yes they just released a new album in 2003 called Dance of Death. And why are you asking Metal Assmonkey to grow up when you're the one who told him "iron maiden aint shit compared to metallica or megadeth.P.S run to the hills is a fuckin stupid song ass monkey u fuckin poser " ???

I think maidens dance of death is the best album ive heard in a long time. my second favourite now, kea is my first... its stood the test of time. lol
kick ass. im glad someone agrees with me. i think maidens dance of death is probobly the best metal album of the 21st century.

Posted by on 04/12/06 @ 09:45 PM Post subject:

Iron Maiden are one of the best metal bands, they know what they're doing, so I don't think they'll slap-on just anything. All of their albums, including Dance of death has been great.

Anyways, onto metallica, I heard they recorded RTL in like 3-4 months or something like that, but they probably just gotten lazy. You know how americans are.. hehe jk.

In terms of choosing between the two. Metallica wins, but its VERY close. When you compare st. anger to dance of death, st. anger gets absolutely crushed by the brilliance of dance of death. And maidens lyrics dont have any meaning? wtf?! are you retarded? You need to dig a little bit deeper to find their meanings. Metallica's song meanings are there blatantly for even the stupidest person to get right off. Maiden's lyrics are works of art and i love the galloping riffs.

You ever say anything bad about Bruce Dickinson's vocals again and i swear i will hunt you down and castrate YOU! Listen to paschendale, new frontier, rainmaker and montsegur. Now you'll see what im talking about.

wrong according to lars they 6 or 7 songs recorded without vocals yet, this is official stuff out of kerrang, i'll scan and post the article for you guys if you want.

Posted by on 04/20/06 @ 01:44 AM Post subject:

hey, maiden has managed 2 tours and to get back in the studio before metallica even got off thier lazy asses. somehow im not surprised.

You don't know shit about what Metallica are doing at this very moment. Get over it. Maiden's albums all sound the same...thats soooo original. Metallica would probably be done if it sounded the same as every other album. I love Iron Maiden, but just because I happen to think they're unoriginal I don't need to express it in every thread like you and your Metalli-hate. If you like Maiden so much, go to an Iron Maiden forum. Easy as that. I'll stay here where some people still like Metallica :roll:.

Iron Maiden albums don't sound the same. Just listen to dance of death and compare it to Iron Maiden/Killers. Or compare piece of mind to the brave new world. Plus blaze, bruce, and paul have very different vocals.

I like metallica more obviously, but yea Maiden are very original band.

TSHF. out of the three new albums from the 3 kings of metal(tallica, maiden, megadeth) i have to say i like dance of death and system has failed way more than st. anger.

Posted by mr.puppet on 02/14/05 @ 09:37 AM Post subject: , Re: System vs Anger

Well I don't understand all this hostile rivalry bullshit, just learn how to accept each others opinion, fuck sounds like 'Jerry Springer'. Personally I like TSHF more, its just better I donno for me it worked, St Anger was good but I donno it clicked. Dance of Death was great, Iron Maiden are just great. I still need to most cd's, cept for number, 7ths son and killers. I just wish i had the cds rather than Just the music.<<<you konw what i mean

cool. you need to get number of the beast and piece of mind. dont bother with no prayer for the dying, Xfactor, and Virtual XI, they arent great. anyways, whats your fav song. mines probobly paschendale, blood brothers, or rime of the ancient mariner. oh, and i got:

Iron Maiden
Killers
The Number of the Beast
Piece of Mind
Powerslave
Somewhere in Time
7th Son of a 7th Son
Fear of the Dark
Brave new world
Dance of Death
Rock in Rio (DVD)

all awesome, except fear of the dark which is pretty mediocre. and i dont buy greatest hits so i wouldnt know about edward the great.

metallica releases st. anger (shit in a box)

Iron maiden releases-Dance of Death - kills st. anger

delian league releases day of question demo - 3 songs that kill st. anger
avenged sevenfold releases waking the fallen - better than st. anger

falconer releases the sceptre of deception - musically kills st. anger

You don't know whats coming next. It might slay...it might not.

All of those albums are based on opinion anyhow. Lots of people would disagree with your choices...you basically took your favorites and pitted them against a band you hate. Of course the other bands are going to look good in that frame of mind.

No! Waking The Fallen is not better than St. Anger! It's shit!

If they'd put the SKOM Single Edit on the Album along with Dirty Window with the solos. Also if they had used the sound quality from the Reheasal DVD i would love it more. That DVD owns. That album would've slayed.

I'd say i'd like a Justice-style album. But with a few Kill 'em All Numbers.
Mix that with Load Vocals & the flow of MOP & RTL & you'll have one Bitching album.

P.S. I bet you if St. Anger was good,there wouldn't be as much coversation about it. It would just be seen as another album & be (relatively) ignored. St. Anger being bad made it more interesting & we get amazing debats like this!

The way I see it, as long as they put out a good album, that's all that matters, Metallica can play Metallica, whatever they play, it is Metallica. Bands shouldn't make an album a certain way for fan sake, they play whatever they want, it's their band, not yours.

Iron Maiden - Dance of death

Iron fucking Maiden - Dance of Death

Well I only have # of the beast so I asked assmonkey what I should get and here's what he said:

"as for good albums, i suggest Powerslave, Seventh son, or Brave New World for starters. all of them are basically equal quality. after those, go for Piece of Mind, Somewhere in time, and Dance of death. those are still amazing albums, but not as good as the ther 3. i would go with BNW or Powerslave. those are more accessable than 7th son, which is a concept album and all the songs tell a story. need anymore help let me know."

*listens to the outlaw torn*
what about the first 2(iron maiden and killlers)

ur a maiden fan write so help me out with something. ive got number of the beast and powerslave . i need to know whats their best album(in ur opinoin)

"as for good albums, i suggest Powerslave, Seventh son, or Brave New World for starters. all of them are basically equal quality. after those, go for Piece of Mind, Somewhere in time, and Dance of death. those are still amazing albums, but not as good as the ther 3. i would go with BNW or Powerslave. those are more accessable than 7th son, which is a concept album and all the songs tell a story. need anymore help let me know."
