	1.	Iron Maiden - Powerslave 1984 --> one of my favorite metal albums ever {10/10}
	2.	Iron Maiden - Somewhere In Time 1986 --> Not far behind {9.9/10}
	3.	Iron Maiden - The Number Of The Beast 1982 --> Gangland and Invaders are the only non-perfect songs, and they're still great {9.75/10}
	4.	Iron Maiden - Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son 1988 --> The Prophecy drops this just beneath NotB {9.6/10}
	5.	Iron Maiden - Brave New World 2000 --> spiritual successor to Seventh Son {9.4/10}
	6.	Iron Maiden - Iron Maiden 1980 --> one of the greatest heavy metal debuts ever {9.3/10}
	7.	Iron Maiden - Dance Of Death 2003 --> 3 of Maiden's best songs (Paschendale, title track, Montsegur) but slightly uneven {9.3/10}
	8.	Iron Maiden - Piece Of Mind 1983 --> side A and opener for B are perfect, a bit of a drop for the last several songs on the album {9.2/10}
	9.	Iron Maiden - Killers 1981 --> Innocent Exile and Prodigal Son drop this slightly {9.1/10}
	10.	Iron Maiden - A Matter Of Life And Death 2006 --> slow burn, took a bit to get into this one but big fan now {8.7/10}
	11.	Iron Maiden - The Book Of Souls 2015 --> drop Tears and Man of Sorrows, reduce Empire to about 10-12 minutes, and this hops up nearly a full point {8.2/10}
	12.	Iron Maiden - The Final Frontier 2010 --> Biggest problem I have with this album is no single outstanding song, but also nothing poor. Too long {7.9/10}
	13.	Iron Maiden - No Prayer For The Dying 1990 --> The first album from them with mediocre songs, but it's a bit overhated {7.2/10}
	14.	Iron Maiden - Fear Of The Dark 1992 --> Several great songs, but several bad ones. Very uneven {7.1/10}
	15.	Iron Maiden - Senjutsu 2021 --> a.k.a. Yawnjutsu. 82 minutes of mid-tempo mediocrity. Worst Bruce album by a long shot. The only Iron Maiden album without a song that rates at least 4 stars out of 5 {5.8/10}
	16.	Iron Maiden - The X Factor 1995 --> On the positive side, it is 10 minutes shorter than Senjutsu and the first 3 songs are decent. After that, wake me when it's over {5.3/10}
	17.	Iron Maiden - Virtual XI 1998 --> Clansman and Futureal are great. Angel/Gambler and Como estais are 2 of the worst songs in metal history, and the rest of the album mostly sucks {3.8/10}
