Formed in London, England, in 1976, Iron Maiden was from the start the brainchild of Steve Harris (b. 12 March 1957, Leytonstone, London, England; bass), formerly a member of pub rockers Smiler. Named after a medieval torture device, the music was suitably heavy and hard on the senses. The heavy metal scene of the late 70s was widely regarded as stagnant, with only a handful of bands proving their ability to survive and produce music of quality. It was at this time that a new breed of young British bands began to emerge. This movement, which began to break cover in 1979 and 1980, was known as the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal, or N.W.O.B.*.M.. Iron Maiden were one of the foremost bands in the genre, and many would say its definitive example. Younger and meaner More...

I loved this high adrenaline song ever since I was 15 (when I first heard it). Puts you on top gear mentally, physically & spiritually.....but not everyone can appreciate such a masterpiece. Though I wish there were more such people. satanic!!!!! not. | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song The Number of the Beast performed by Iron Maiden dude...i dont get why people find this offensive. Im a christian, raised as a christian, go to church every sunday. These bands are soooo prejudiced...they are called satanic because of the title. christians dont bother listening to the song...

NO, im a christian myself and i dont like much or any of our worship music, my favorite bands are maiden, metalica, and zeppelin. just because you hear it on a song doesnt mean you have to do it haha. Rainmaker is a Killer song but.............. | Reviewer: Ken ------ About the song Rainmaker performed by Iron Maiden Rainmaker is a KILLER song!!! I would put it in my top 40 Favorite Maiden songs. <p> Now here is sad truth, the rest of the album is garbage!!! Except a few Murray solo's I can't bare to listen to it and frankly speaking I don't. Just absolutely awesome | Reviewer: joe cool ------ About the song The Trooper performed by Iron Maiden If you don't like this song then you are crazy, if you have never listened to it you have no life, if you have never even heard of it then you should be shot, if you like this song the more power to ya! WTF? hehe.. | Reviewer: The Maiden ------ About the song Rainmaker performed by Iron Maiden this is the worst song of iron maiden! iron maiden IS SHIT! pop rulez! haha! well babies, i got to go, i AM a Maiden, but no an IRON maiden, NEVER pleease! haha! obviously, Avril Lavigne ROX! and dont say ANYTHING, cause she really rox my friends! [or not so friends?] hahaha! oh, and EMO rulez too! [metal= SHIT!] hehehe! I hope you learn da lesson friends! METAL WON'T SURVIVE MUCH LONGER, EMO IS THE THING NOW! and you know now metallers, be prepared for emo boys and emo girls! Hell yeah! | Reviewer: templar ------ About artist/band Iron Maiden IRON MAIDEN is the best. Although Sepultura with their Arise album hooked me on metal, the harmonics of Iron Maiden won me over. I've been their (biggest) fan ever since. Bruce Dickinson has the best male vocal in the f***** world... Been on two concerts in Slovenia (where i come from) and one in Croatia. My gf litterally passed out when they started to play The number of the beast. They trully are the greatest. Up the Irons! May they music live forever. sick!!! | Reviewer: jake ------ About the song Aces High performed by Iron Maiden ok matt i went to there show in albuquerque on the 25 of may and it was the best show ive ever been to. they started off with doctor doctor with us and then aces high. it was simply amazing. i waited for that show for atleast 4 months and i was satisfied Béziers reference | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Montségur performed by Iron Maiden Absolutely beautiful interpretation of the Albigensian crusade against the French Cathar heritics and Christian brutality in general in the middle ages. Neca eos omnes, deus suos agnoscet. "Kill them all, God will know his own." Spoken by the Papal legate Arnaud-Amaury in 1209 at the siege of Béziers, not Montségur as in the song. Thirty thousand men, women, and children massacred, several thousand inside the city's church itself. The crusade is the same for Béziers and Montségur though, so the 'sentiment,' as it were, remains valid. The Béziers genocide reference alone makes this song, but - even without it - it would still be one of Maiden's best. Rime of the Ancient Mariner: 5/5 | Reviewer: Kyousuke ------ About the song Rime of the Ancient Mariner performed by Iron Maiden nice lyrics! if iron maiden expects someone to listen to a half-hour long song, it better sound good (and it does)and the lyrics better be cool. They should make a movie of this XD the people who did Narnia should do it. In the end it says something about teaching God's word and loving all the things He made. maybe the Irons are christian? It is not satanic | Reviewer: Catholic ------ About the song The Number of the Beast performed by Iron Maiden What Iron Maiden is talking about is how people are easily tempted by evil. The guy in the beginning of the song is a good guy. However the allure of Satan is something he can't resist. It is a warning to people that anyone can succumb to the false promises of the Devil powerslave | Reviewer: Matt ------ About the album Powerslave performed by Iron Maiden one of maiden's best. my favorite album i love the cover art, don't you think its cool? theres tons of little secrets in it too, like chad, and the indiana jones was here thing absolute classics like "Aces High" and "2 Minutes to Midnight" really make this one of the best metal albums to date Do or die | Reviewer: matt ------ About the song Aces High performed by Iron Maiden this has got to me one of my favorite songs by maiden. So fast paced and up tempo, i love bruce's screaming voice in it. he gives me goosebumps everytime i hear the first line. im going to their show in edmonton on june 6th and i hope they start off the show with this song, dear god that would be amazing. they probably will tho so thats good but all in all this is, in my opinion, a great song don't bother | Reviewer: haedim ------ About the song The Number of the Beast performed by Iron Maiden as a christian i don't think that a religious person should never listen to this song. it's just about steve harris' dream. he saw a nightmare after watching the movie Omen (for which the Catholic Church gave thumbs up). i think the only song that you shouldn't listen to if you are a christian is moonchild because it's very similar to a crowley's ritual. to find out more about this i'd suggest you to read the maiden commentary site (http://maidenfans.com/imc) Great album but... | Reviewer: Lucas ------ About the album Brave New World performed by Iron Maiden I would not stop you from buying this album because they have some really great killer tracks, but I find that they put on a couple of songs that made Iron Maiden look softer than before. Other than those few soft songs, this album is a must have for all Iron Maiden fans!
