How come everyone started to listen to them at the same time? did everyone copy off each other , is it just a huge coincidence or is everyone gonna tell me now that they have been listening to iron maiden since they were 5? anyway i know it's only a personal opinion but they are not that great , they have a few good songs, does'nt make them good.

from what i've heard of em i don't like em at all......................................... in fact you could say i hate the post office!!!!

I'm more of an Alice Cooper guy myself. Any Iron Maiden I listen to is just for street cred.

I listened to a bit of Iron Maiden in my younger days. The five albums up to Powerslave were quite good - at the time
Live After Death sounded great back in 1985

Somewhere In Time was my favourite LP of theirs. After that things went downhill. Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son had three ok songs, the rest filler.

After that I lost interest.
And looking back on those days and playing the records again, I must say that they are not as good as I remembered. Somewhere In Time being the exception.

I know they have a best of out now but I won't buying it

[jillface]

We all just listen to them because the guitarist from SUM41 wore their t-shirt once. What he likes, we likes......right guys?

 

[Phil]

Their new zombie look has certainly made an impact on me.

 

[rape the drummer]

oh yeh man if there's one thing rockinger than korn its sum 41 but sometimes those dudes are just too out there!

shut up.

 

[jillface]

well Rob, see, I really did listen to them when i was younger 'causa my brother, the posters scared me though.

i have the 'best of the beast' CD. I wasn't even a twinkle in my mother's eye when they were popular so I'm not even going to THINK about feining any sort of 'back in the day' malarky. And lets be honest folks - a CD is muucchh easier to have than vinyl .. so boo ya sux to you yiz oldies!

what do you mean "easier to have"?

 

[deena]

When I say "easier to have", I mean that a CD is more compatible with everyday life than vinyl for many reasons:
- you can listen to them on a walkman
- a record player is a lot harder to find than a CD player ie you might only have one record player in your house but there might be 3 or 4 things (hifi, computer etc) that you can listen to a CD on
- theyre smaller and therefore less prone to damage ...etcetc

 

[goatlord]

am i too late to be part of this trend ?

 

[jillface]

yes.

 

[Willie Willions]

I got into them because of Sum41. I mean, come on.

I had a cool poster of them when I was about 7, but I always assumed they were crap because of the way they looked (kind of like I did with most of the hardcore/punk stuff I'm into now) until when I was living with Ed the year before last and he wheeled out his Best of the Beast tape...after refusing to listen to it for months I had a sneaky listen when there was no-one there and he & Ella came back that afternoon to discover me guiltily rocking out to Can I Play With Madness? with one foot on the couch...and I've never looked back.
