Personally I prefer Iron Maiden because they were the ones that started the whole movement, though Metallica gave it the strenght to amaze the whole world, but you know Maiden is Maiden and they have really become legends.

And also in the opinion of a lot of listeners. Not only does it suffer from what you mentioned but the general recording is also way too loud hence distorting a lot and killing all the dynamics.

the bass volume is a little high in this album I think, IMO they should volmue down the Bass. One of my reasons that I think its a medicore album + Jaymz'z voice is worse as St.Anger. Riffs r Copy of their old works almost. and I cant see anything new in solo's. the song "Suicide and Redemption" is the worst Instrumental song by them. Unforgiven III is the worst Unforgiven. Piano and Violin Sux in Thrash metal. "The End Of The Line" deserves to be at St.Anger, although this album is not much more better than it! and a lot of other bad and hateful things about this album which I cant number

I think he is just fucking with us, and still really thinks of DM as a masterpiece

It seemed like he would go home and cry his eyes out every single time someone disagreed. Yes, also me... LOL but then again Metallica lost their touch for me with And Justice alreay

@marillionfan and Marcel I was Psycotic and blind about DM, and now Im not. blieve me that u have made me feel sick about DM. and about my old reacts im sorry! but I dont think that my reacts was cause of opposite opinions, in those times! i thought that someone always wants to speak about metallica negatively and fairless. its why I was angry. now I know that I was wrong. I dont like to argue and make a lot of enemies cause of a band!

Like powerslavex said: Maiden for their consistancy. Their unique style, melodies, lyrics. I think Metallica always have been a good band, despite the change of style and the critiscism, and I've always supported them. But Maiden is Maiden

Iron Maiden hands DOWN. Sure not every album they released was amazing, but none of them completely sucked imo. That and they do an amazing live performance.

14.11.2008 - 19:18 Written by K✞ulu on 11.11.2008 at 22:30 i never said DM is shitty im only saying that is not that good, lot of people said that is the Metal album of the year, its good. but cmon haven't they listened to stuff like Formation of Damnation or Twilight of the Thunder God (in my opinion best album of 2008 so far). For example just yesterday i read in a Rock magazine that DM was the most Metal, fast and powerful album in Metallica's career.... wtf!? these people dont know Kill em all or Master of Puppets? dont missunderstand people Metallica is a legendary band and i love theyr first 5 albums but i can't stand the fact that fanboys mess up with other great bands like Megadeth or Maiden. I can´t watch a Metal video of many bands without a fag commenting that Metallica is better than that band.

14.11.2008 - 19:25 Written by Metalbound7 on 14.11.2008 at 19:18 Oh, ok. I actually I agree with your original post. All the talking about how Death Magnetic resembles their old releases makes me mad. But your post in Megadeth vs Metallica thread made me think you were biased against them. I guess I was mistaken.

Iron Maiden are easily more influential than Metallica. Metallica had what, 3 or 4 good albums? Iron maiden had about 7 in a row! And you struggle to find a metal band who wasn't influenced by Iron Maiden. Nor will you find a metalhead who will talk shit about Maiden. But Metallica... people talk shit about them all the time. And they can't really win when they've got arguably the most hated metal album of all time (do I even need to say what it is?). Now, about their new releases... I haven't heard much of Death Magnetic but from what I have heard, it's nothing new. I wouldn't go as far to call Maiden's '06 release a prog album, but it defiantly has progressive elements to it. And it is a far more interesting record than what I've heard of Death Magnetic. Iron Maiden are the classic metal band, you can't vote Metallica over them, especially when it's in terms of influence. P.S. Metallica 'amazed the whole world' by changing their thrash sound to one riff per song, single-based album sound? Hmmmmmm

Im gonan go with Maiden, just because i fell there releases have been more consistent. They both got great albums, they both have put out some sub par releases, but Maiden has always managed to keep me entertained through almost every release, the same can't be said for metallica, though DM is much betetr then alot of their recent work heh.

I agree with Overlord_PT They are tough to compare side by side. But, I like Iron Maiden better. And it sucks that Bruce is gone now.
