Both bands were extremely popular when I was little. During the early 90's late 80's I would have said Metallica, But Iron Maiden has been more consistent to this date! So I voted Iron Maiden.

The word gen means "illusion" or "apparition." In India, a man who uses conjury is called a genjutsushi ["a master of illusion technique"]. Everything in this world is but a marionette show. Thus we use the word gen.

3) They influenced Metallica.
4) They have better album covers than Metallica.

Of course Iron Maiden. They have more band member than metallica.

(something happen to the Beatles when compared to nirvana, and Yngwie wins all if we count in ex-band member)

Up To The Irons!!

This as soooo Easy! I like many iron maiden songs, their almost never disapoint, and metallica, well... their have an "extreme boring" Nu Metal album, and on top of that, i don't like much trash metal...

Master Of Puppets- Best Metallica song!

Yeah I like Fear of the Dark too, and Brave New World is one of their best albums. Matter of Life and Death and Final Frontier are still better than anything Metallica has done since "Justice"

Iron Maiden will always be better than Metallica, because Iron Maiden always had great albums (even those with Blaze Bayley on voice - but their life versions with Bruce are great) while Metallica began to be interested more about money and less about the music.

Yes, Brave New World.

Anyways, it's Maiden for me because they have been more consistent throughout the years like everyone else has already stated. Metallica only released four good albums, and Maiden has released like almost a dozen.

Iron Maiden was what I voted for.

As for Metallica, I like them, and all their pre-1990 albums are great, but I still think Iron Maiden put out more influential albums, some of higher quality, and continued on and at least put out 1 or 2 half decent albums after Seventh Son. After the black album, Metallica was done. I don't care what the enter sandman people say, they were done.

There must be people who were too embarrassed to post that they voted for Metallica after they saw how many people were saying they voted for Iron Maiden.
