Iron Maiden

Hell...demons...falling angels and humanity are traits to describe some of their songs. No they do not sing about hotel maids! They are pretty much the beginning of heavy metal. IRON MAIDEN is one of the most heaviest in their songs because of their vocalist Dennis Wilcock. But Dennis wasn't their main signer until they fired Paul Day since he wasn't as energetic or charismatic. The band was formed by the bassist Steve Harris and soon after the lead guitarist Dave Murray. what is so great about them is that they can insert WWI battles in their songs like "Passchendale" one of the most bloodiest battles that ever existed. It also talks about the no mans land, the trenches were the allied and enemy troops would hide in and fire at one another and how everyone lost  most of their friends over there. Its my favorite song  and it keeps you from falling asleep. in other songs they talk about human hatred and how they make the same mistake in the song "Blood Brothers". Now the heartbeat to all their songs is the battery, who else to keep the adrenaline pumping  than Doug Sampson himself. The beat of the drums will make your heart pump faster than any other band apart from Metallica. Now here's a picture and song from iron maiden to you.

  1. Hey, Pretty cool blog I'm personally not a big fan of "metal" I don't really like rock music at all to be honest. I found your blog interesting tho, you seem to really know what your talking about. I watched the video, it was kinda cool but not exactly my type, I'm not in to all that war stuff but nice job:)
