The biggest metal band on the planet, but I agree, some people just can't appreciate the sheer genius of their music.

An immensely popular metal band that hails from England, known for their high standard of musicianship, dramatic live performances, and off-kilter lyrical themes. The guitar duo of Adrian Smith and Dave Murray is arguably without equal when it comes to leads, solos, and harmonies. While their prime was roughly two decades ago, their 21st century albums are still first-rate efforts and easily lay all that mainstream junk to waste. Like any other band, they have their detractors, most of whom have precious little knowledge of music.

1.A british heavy metal band formed in 1976, considered by many to be the best band ever (I agree) however some people just cannot cut the awesome metal sound that is iron maiden, and for that i pity them. There live gigs are the best shows you will ever go to, they are also an influence on almost every heavy metal band in the last 25 years (including metallica).
2. A during device popular during the 1600s (imagine a coffin with nails in it)
3. A british doom metal banded formed in 1964... no really...

the fuckin best band ever. they were formed in the east end o'london in '76 by Steve 'arry' Harris, the best bassist and songwriter in the world. They have recorded 13 studio albums so far and every one of them is a fuckin' classic. whoever says that the two Blaze albums are shite dont know what theyre on about. Maiden fuckin' rule!

The greatest band ever!

Formed in East London in 1976 as a pub band,they are now one of the most immatated bands in Heavy Metal. The man who has held the band together through the rough times is Bass God Steve Harris. Steve had always dreamed of playing football for his team, West Ham United, but took up the Bass when they turned him down (to americans reading- West ham utd are a soccer team from England whose badge is the castle and hammers badge on Steve's bass). He was formerly a member of pub rockers Smiler. The heavy metal scene of the late 70s was widely regarded as stagnant, with only a few 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 79 and 80 was called the new wave of british heavy metal and maiden were the definitive example. Since then, they've recorded 13 studio albums with dozens of classic metal anthems including hallowed be thy name, the trooper, aces high and the evil that men do.

GOD - too many fuckin good songs to write here.

Definitively, one of the greatest heavy metal bands of all time, if not the best. they have achieved this position by making good, meaningful, and kickass music for over 30 years. Their greatness is undeniable.

1. A supposed medieval torture device consisting of a hollow iron statue or coffin in the shape of a woman that is lined with spikes which impale the enclosed victim.
2. One of the greatest band ever in the history of thy world
3. A spell from Diablo 2 which causes meele enemies

iron maiden are legends. the fact that they can still play better than sabbath with that bitch sharon turning their power off and throwing bottles at them says it all. every album they've done is great but the 3 masterpieces are number of the beast, piece of mind and SSOASS.
