POWERSLAVE is one of THE BEST Heavy Metal recordings of all time. They somehow improved on the songwriting and melodic , majestic power they produced on "Piece of Mind" and just went to a level of perfection that is still beautiful and unmatched in metal. Even 26 years later the musicianship and vocal quality of POWERSLAVE, honestly, can't be topped. "Rime of the Ancient Mariner" is possibly the best Iron Maiden song every written , IMO. POWERSLAVE is a true work of art in the heavy metal world. You ain't metal if you've never owned this album , seriously.

What can I say? This is my fave Maiden album. (and it has very strong competition from Maiden's other awesome 80's albums!) Pure heavy metal perfection. xD

I hate to beat a dead horse here, but i do think that the album kinda loses pace in the middle, specifically tracks 5 and 6. anyway other than that pure classic heavy metal, unmistakable riffs, mindblowing bass work(imo by far Steve's best work is on this album), genius vocals(even though Bruce can't pull off Aces High live to save his life) everything is 90% perfect, so i give this album a 9

This is by far... well of course I'm gonna say this album is my most desired favorite from iron Maiden (Along with Number of the Beast) Iron Maiden is by far the name of Metal! 
Ladies and Gents... Satan's work is done!

I agree about track 5 and 6. Good songs, but not as good as others like Aces High, 2 Minutes and the epic title track. ;d

The Duellists is amazing in my opinion, so is Flash of the Blade.

Good record. Though, it's not my favourite Maiden album.
The title track and Rime of the Ancient Mariner are the songs I enjoy the most, but The Duellists is also a nice song with lyrics matching the music. 
Well, Aces High is a great song too, but I guess I'm too tired of hearing countless covers of it through the years so it doesn't make me bang my head anymore. 
Also... Am I the only who, while listening to the main riff from 2 Minutes to Midnight, can't help but think of the riff from Venom's Welcome to Hell?

The album starts greatly, and then lose it's pace too fast. The first two tracks and the title track are masterpieces, the rest is boring. And seriously, Losfer Words and Back in the Village are in my group of the most boring maiden songs ever. 
Hm... to tell the truth, every maiden album has at least one annoying filler amongst the great songs, every! (except for Seventh son [... ).

By no means is this release under rated, but It just rubs me the wrong way seeing number of the beast rated higher

And another masterpiece from Harris &. co. Rime of the ancient Mariner is the best track Maiden ever released, in my opinion.

I wouldn't rank this among my favorite Maiden releases, but god damn, the band REALLY out did themselves with Rime of the Ancient Mariner! One of their best songs for sure!
