Iron Maiden - The Ides Of March/Wrathchild

[MonsterClyde]

What the fk' happened to music ?
Kids today have the tech,
 but WE HAD THE JAMS !!!

[jaysonj]

Arguably the greatest opening of any metal album in history. The power. The precision. The groove. The snarl. The brutal lyrics. Simply awesome.

So sad to hear of Paul's passing today. RIP together with Clive. Best Maiden album, IMO.

Paul Di'anno - R.I.P.
Age - 66 years, 6 months.

Dammmm! RIP! big man. You were the reason I got into Iron Maiden and remained a fan to this day.

Bass intro to Wrathchild is still giving me chills. 35 + years since I first heard it. UP THE IRONS!!!!

[alexnervo]

"Iron Maiden" and "Killers" their best albums ever, the first one is so rough and raw but honest. The second is just pure groove aye.

[michaelstephen]

The best intro to any Maiden album. Oh, and one of the best metal album covers of all time - despite what Adrian Smith thinks!

[vladpuscasu]

I was looking for this. These two go perfect together. This early raw, in your face, punky sound is what made me aan Iron Maiden fan. RIP Paul! UP THE IRONS!

My favorite opener for Maiden. Just amazing.

[paulrash]

shitheal Missouri town. High school kids in Camero t-tops, me on my BMX and first time hearing this as a 10 year old. Changed my music choice for life.

[viktorcule]

the bass line and the drums are a phenomenal combination

[davidpeckham]

They don’t make metal like this no more damn shame

[duke_of_destruction]

look kids it's real so glad to have grown up blasting this !!!!

[davef]

This was such a staple of daily life in the early eighties! Dave wailing on that amazing Stratocaster and making it all okay.

[frenchiestokes]

Very few songs open as powerful. It's almost as if it tells the story if Maiden as a band in just that opening

[scottwoods]

The greatest Maiden album, if not the greatest metal album of all time.

[gmallett]

Maiden’s finest hour delivering eternal greatness

[tomhartman]

Mr Harris the reason i picked up a bass. Maybe my biggest influence yes he was no doubt

[joekarkut]
