I'm probably in the minority here, but I would definately say X Factor. The album is probably their most progressive work. Blaze Bayley did an excellent job filling the shoes of Bruce Dickinson. The tones on that album are much more variant and the compositions are so much longer. Just listen to Sign of The Cross, The Aftermath, Blood on the World's Hands, The Unbeliever, and 2 AM and tell me Maiden didn't make a progressive effort with that album. -------------

Number of the beast blew me away the first time I heard it, also like Killers and Poweslave. Seeing someone mention NWOBHM gave me a thought of calling new Prog bands post 1990 NWOPRB (PRB=Progressive Rock Bands) |

1. Powerslave 2. Iron Maiden 3. Killers / The Number Of The Beast / Brave New World (can't choose) # 1. and 2. are probably their most proggy ones as well.

As for me... 1. Powerslave 2. Piece of Mind 3. The Number of the Beast (in my top 3 for the first time ever believe it or not) 4. Seventh Son of a Seventh Son/Somewhere in Time/Killers 7. Iron Maiden 8. Dance of Death 9. The X Factor 10. Virtual XI 11. Brave New World 12. Fear of the Dark 13. No Prayer for the Dying But I'd choose Beast Over Hammersmith over all of them.  |

My head is still ringing from my first listening of Number Of the Beast, some 20 years ago! Killers and Piece of Mind come in a blurry second. I pretty muched stopped after Powerslave, yet Running Free from the debut is frequently in my metal roundabout. Up the Irons! ------------- Here I'm shadowed by a dragon fig tree's fan ringed by ants and musing over man. |

Paul DiAnno was much more powerful than Bruce Bruce (and Paul was a pure brute) ------------- let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

^Ditto BNW... awesome album, but all their stuff is nothing short of briliant... Well, maybe the albums with Di'Anno are a bit worse... but thats because I hate his voice! ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/ed_the_dead/?chartstyle=asimpleblue5">

Killers is the worst 80's maiden album IMO and infact i can only come up with Fear of the dark as a even worser album...but then again maiden has never delivered a truly bad album (except for FOTD) ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/Fjuffe/?chartstyle=sideRed - [IMG - http://imagegen.last.fm/sideRed/recenttracks/Fjuffe.gif - |

I'm actually love each and every single Dickinson and Blaze era album... The Live versions of Wrathchild or Murders in the Rue Morgue are awesome with Bruce Bruce on the mike . Maiden never released a bad album... I love them all... the only problem i have with the 1st 2 are the vocals... ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/ed_the_dead/?chartstyle=asimpleblue5">

Wow. Iron Maiden and Killers are two of the most important albums to come out of the NWOBHM. I count Killers as one of their best. ------------- |
