Sort of a seventh bum of the seventh bum, situation, eh?

Seriously, I just spent some time immersed in prog metal and I realised that I enjoyed classic Maiden more than almost every prog-metal band ... the phrase "this isn't as good as seventh son" kept coming into my mind ... You could make arguments for the progginess of individual tracks like Rime and Hallowed Be Thy Name too (and I'm sure many of us know that Steve Harris is a huge Genesis/Wishbone Ash fan) ... but in the end, I guess Maiden are one of those fringe affairs, whom I do feel don't belong on PA's main site

Here in the english-speaking world we say "opinions are like assholes, everyone has one". I'm sure the swedish version is more elegant but just as useful for détente.

 A very intressting translation, indeed. I would say: "The taste is like ones botton, devided" Ha de bra, kompis

"The taste is like ones botton, devided"  Your english overcome mine in this area, however I wouldn't put the "divided" in the end, it kind of mess things up and IMO insults the reader. Lite "off-topic" skulle ja tro 

Devided betyder ju delad, kan någon ta illa upp för att man konstaterar att smaken e olika? Om man bara säjer smaken e som baken fattar ju ingen..å kanske tror man menar att deras smak e som en bak, å DÅ tar dom nog illa vid sej. I viket fall..off topoic

Somewhere in Time and 7th Son definitley have progessive elements.  Not enough to be progressive metal though.  That being said...SiT is by far the best musical offering of Dickinson era Maiden.

The Iron MAiden is a kind of coffin with nails inside... yeah its a torture thing But Harris came up with the idea after waching a  film... "The man with Iron MAsk" or somethin like that (i know it in polish but not in english

BTW, is Iron Maiden refering to Margret Thacther or the orignal meaning of the word as a sort of torture thing? 



I like the Dickinson stuff too, but you're right, the first one is also my favorite.

Well... I'm a big Maiden fan and i know that maiden isn't quite progressive, but take a look...

Stuff like "The Rime" from Powerslave or the whole 7th son album is quite progressive... The whole concept... keybords... and the spacey sound of the whole thing... And what about Maidens recent materrial... Brave New World and Dance of Death have a king of progressive aura around it.. What do You guy's think???
