What is the best Iron Maiden album?

Question

I've only got 2 Iron Maiden CDs - Number of the Beast and Fear of the Dark (and I'm LOVING NOTB), and I wanna get another... so which should I go for next? Which is the best?

Answer 1

You cant go wrong with any of their albums but my personal faves are seventh son....  &  Powerslave.

Also try their live albums as these are brilliant too

Answer 2

Number Of The Beast was also my first Iron Maiden album(Fear of The Dark the second) and my favorite as well.I remember talking with some other old fan,and they told me that usually your first Iron Maiden album is your favorite...

I would suggest you get Piece of Mind next.It's one of their best albums,with some great tracks on it like Flight Of Icarus and The Trooper(but all of them are very good).

In general,I would say Iron Maiden best albums are

Number Of The Beast

Seventh Son of A Seventh Son

Powerslave

Piece Of Mind

As far as their live albums go,Rock in Rio AND Live After Death are both incredible,but it depends on what you're going for(live or studio).

Answer 3

Piece of mind

Answer 4

Personally Powerslave.

Answer 5

Rock in Rio is incredible. Although people will say 'Yeah but it's live' I consider it one of my favourite albums of all time.  

Answer 6

They're all fab, but I like Seventh Son of a Seventh Son.

It was released in 1988 (I think!)  It's a good one!
