Bruce Dickinson brings new ideas and a fuller sound. Songs like "Children of the Damned," "Run to the Hills," "22 Acacia Avenue," "Hallowed Be Thy Name," and the title track are pieces that have rightfully entered the pages of heavy metal history.

They are my favorite band, they have been with me for so many long years and continue to do so, albeit less consistently than some time ago. Their debut album is an absolute gem for songwriting, expressiveness, speed, and the quality of each track. A monstrous debut destined to launch them into the Olympus of the greatest of all time. A treasure to cherish, venerate, and pass on, like something precious and untouchable.

The maidenian epic continues with a second work that is a worthy successor to the first, although with fewer highlights and slightly lower quality. The rightful farewell of Paul Di Anno.

Another masterpiece by the Maiden: the sound becomes more epic, and tracks like "Where Eagles Dare," "Revelations," and "To Tame a Land" prove it. A perfect album, heartfelt, the embodiment of heavy metal, the real one...

Fifth center out of five. The "emblem" album of Iron Maiden: power, melody, epicness, technique. Everything that is asked of classic metal. And "Rime of the Ancient Mariner" is one of the highest compositional peaks in the entire world of metal.

At the time, it was heavily criticized. Then it became one of their most beloved albums, perhaps because its "innovative" charge was understood with the inclusion of synthesizers and a much more futuristic and less "primitive" atmosphere. "Wasted years," "Heaven can wait," "Stranger in a strange land," and the concluding "Alexander the great" are absolute gems.

Sooner or later, the "wrong" album had to arrive. Adrian Smith's departure is felt in terms of songwriting. Janick Gers will take some time to assert his characteristics, which will come to the fore especially in the period following the reunion. Although it is not an album that holds up against everything that came before it, it still contains some good tracks: among them, the title track, "Tailgunner," "The Assassin," and "Mother Russia."

As far as I'm concerned, this is the most successful album by Iron Maiden. There is an underlying mysticism and a "suffering" that I have never perceived in their other works. Perhaps this comes from being the only concept album of their career. "Seventh Son of a Seventh Son" has an artistic and expressive maturity that makes it unique and original in their long career. The title track is the Bible of heavy metal.

The same applies to "No prayer for the dying." After the golden period, ideas become scarce and the quality level declines. You start to notice fatigue, and Dickinson's departure is the result of a complex moment. A sufficient product that has the title track as its peak, as well as one of the most well-known highlights of the Maiden.

I still believe that with Dickinson on vocals this would have been one of Maiden's best albums. For the first time, doom and "oppression" elements emerge, reminiscent of "Seventh Son of a Seventh Son": the final result isn't the same (also due to the not-so-great qualities of Blaze Bayley), but this is an album that deserves to be reevaluated. "Sign of the Cross" is the best, absolutely included in a hypothetical top five of Maiden.

    I agree with what you said. If Harris had brought Paul back for this album...

    Can you tell me why metalheads, and only them, use the word "platter" as a synonym for "album"?

The true masterpiece of the band. The album where the sludge, hardcore, and post-rock influences blend the best. An extraordinary flow of apocalyptic, celestial, monstrous atmospheres. Every note in the right place and at the right time. One of the best releases in the metal scene of the entire 2000s decade. (9)

The first whimper of the sludge monster Isis. It’s an album that already contains everything stylistically that the band will carry forward into the future. However, it still lacks that eclecticism they will find later on, just as the classic post-rock openings are less convincing than they will become. That said, it’s still a debut that, despite its apparent confusion, already has the distinctive traits of Isis. "Gentle Time" is a standout track. (7)

As I see it, something is still missing for the true masterpiece, which will come later. It's a monolithic record, as always "difficult" since it's about Isis. Superb work, but perhaps still too "metallic" and sludgy for my tastes. (8)

    For me, on the other hand, it’s the most beautiful. Great band...

    Maybe it is, several of my friends prefer this. I, perhaps due to personal taste, prefer the softer and post-rock oriented atmospheres of "Panopticon" :)

The worthy conclusion of a band that has expressed everything and more in 5 albums. The end of an extraordinary era for a niche genre. An album that offers less than "Oceanic" and "Panopticon," but once again shows us a band with hard-to-define standards, capable of conveying emotions all the time, no matter what. (7.5)

Another record, but personally I prefer what came before. Every piece by Isis has its own reason and should be absorbed, and although I love this album, I have to say it's the first one where I sensed a flattening of the songwriting that we will also find later on. But it remains a record that should be devoured. (8)
