Hello everybody,
I am a great fan ‘Iron maiden’ so lets talk about it. wha t do you all think about them , their music,Are they Satanic?
 
I grew up on Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Motorhead, and the list goes on and on. I have never seen them as satanic. I looked at them as being artistic. Ronnie James Dio was one of the best story tellers through his music. I think from the 60’s to early 80’s a lot of people were caught up in the Ahlister K.(I don’t know how to spell is last name) movement. Even the Beatles was caught up in it. To me it was just good music.

Flight of Icarus(sp) maybe Iron Maidens best song. Just my Opinion. 👍
 
I’ve seen Maiden several times,they are the most original band,no one sounds like them.You got to love Bruce with his one foot up on the speaker and him saying"scream for me Long Beach".Yeah…Maiden ROCKS!!
 
As a bass player, I always really dug Steve Harris’ bass playing. It gets a little dicey with the satanic thing: They play around with the imagery to sell albums. As far as I know Nico McBrain is a Christian of the born-again variety.

Also, listen to Bruce D’s solo album Chemical Wedding, which is about as pagan as it gets.

I love a lot of heavy metal. Pop music just never did it for me. I have two teenage boys and they keep turning down my music.😃

No, I don’t think that it is Satanic. A lot of us don’t enjoy overly sweet music. We just respond to something a little darker, with a lot of good guitar playing. In heaven, I think that there will be a variety of music playing. Our Lord seems to like variety.

I actually think that a lot of Brittany Spears’ and CHristian Aguilara’s music is worse morally and much more harmful to kids.😦

Here is something funny, my hubby thinks that I have odd taste in music. Not because I still like heavy metal but because I also like some country and classical music. He never knows what will be coming out of our stereo.
 
Well, I can’t say that I am a fan, per se, because I don’t have any of their CD’s, but I do like some of their music. Bruce’s voice is incredible!

Of course, I am weird because I like most kinds of music.

Well, what you told might be right but what about lyrics like this

“Close my mind dull this brain
Messiah before his fall” this is the song ‘brave new world’ from the album Brave New World . what do you think of it?

oops, wrong room. I thought this was a thread to bring back the Inquisition (what a show!)
 
Maiden just came to the Alpine Valley music theatre in East Troy Wisconsin this past weekend as part of the Ozzfest tour.I guess after Maiden got done with their set everyone started leaving,they didn’t wait to even see Black Sabbath. From all reviews Maiden was the best act on the bill! Bruce,Dave,Nicko,Adrian,Steve,Janick, and of course EDDIE…still kickin …after all these years! Talk about a band for the ages! Maiden,Maiden,Maiden! Ahhhhhhhhh! Scream for me Milwaukee!! You got to love it!

The song I assume is inspired by Huxley’s novel of the same name. In it, society is doped up with a drug called soma. (They even have a creepy pseudo-Eucharistic ritual with it. ) The supposed real Christians are banished to special reservations. So this lyric is likely calling up parts in the book.

No, no, no and NO.
Any references to the devil are purely for theatrical purposes and to warn people away from evil.

As for the band themselves, Bruce Dickinson=human air raid siren

Sounds like a plan…what can I do to help? Oooooh! Can I tighten the thumb screws…? :eek:
 
Isadore-those songs are not from Iron Maiden,they are from Megadeth.Maiden sings such classics as Run to the Hills,The Trooper,Flight of Icarus,Running Free,Waysted Years,Hallowed be Thy Name. Interesting fact…do any of you out there realize Maiden was the First band to go behind the Iron curtain…They played a few shows in Poland on the World Slavery Tour and a few shows in Hungary,It’s weird to see the concert footage with all the soldiers in the crowd. That was in 1984.

Don’t feel bad. For some reason, I get Iron Maiden and Black Sabbath confused. I can only plead old age.:o
