Iron Maiden
I have both the Number Of The Beast and Piece Of Mind. Which Iron Maiden should I get next?
I loved both albums so I'm excited for the next one. I don't know much about Iron Maiden and just got those 2 albums a couple of weeks ago, so which do you think I should get next and why?
PowerSlave
then Live After Death.
PowerSlave IMO is their finest album bar none, as the tracks are every bit as strong as those on Piece of Mind and Number..but with none of the filler tracks. There is not one even remotely weak track on the whole album. From Aces High to Rime fo the Ancient Mariner to 2 Minutes to Midnight to the instrumental piece Losfer Words, it is simply magnificent.

Live after Death is a Double Disc live set from the World Slavery Tour featuring their best from Iron Maiden - Powerslave. Simply fantastic and a Maiden must have.
After those I would definitely recommend Seventh Son of a Seventh SOn and then Somewhere in Time in that order.
Both Epic Albums, and essentials also.
Beyond that it gets a little Murkier, with the 2 Paul Di'Anno Era Albums (Iron Maiden and Killers) vying with Fear of the Dark and Dance of Death for listening time. I can make a strong case for any of the above.
then you have Brave New World, and a Matter of Life and Death somewhere right behind those, with the least appealing albums being
No Prayer for the Dying, X-Factor and Virtual XI (the last 2 with Blaze Blayley at vocals..... blegghhhhh) in that order.
***EDIT...oh, btw? UP THE F*in' IRONS!!!!! \m/
*EDT..why thank you Darth! I would give Iron Maiden and Killers BOTH Higher marks if they had Bruce singing. Live I do truly love those albums. But Di'Anno's flat delivery kinda ruins the studio albums for me. Of course..you also did hear them Pre-Brucce..and sometimes we prefer what we knew first (which might be why I am so Bruce biased). Oh well.... not like you can really go wrong with Maiden, eh?
