Iron Maiden

Two things I must say about this one. First, it's a very good example of heavy metal from the late 70s early 80s. Second, I hate heavy metal from the late 70s early 80s.

Man I have been so wrong in my assumptions of Iron Maiden for way too long after listening to this album. Perhaps it’s the hideous character used in all their art work or the millions of 80’s tragic bogan followers but I had always viewed their music the same as a lot of average metal from the same era. These tracks are so much more defined and ‘musical’ than expected. The fact I can also hear where early Metallica gained their inspiration also gives this album a huge amount of credit and respect. Never judge a book by it’s horrible cover art. 4 Stars!

Doubtlessly one of heavy metal's all-time most influential albums (with this release, Iron Maiden helped Judas Priest to plant the seeds for speed, thrash, and progressive metal.) It's also one of the finest debuts ever recorded by any band in the history of heavy metal. The band's vocals would become more memorable and expansive on later releases (especially after Bruce Dickinson replaced Paul Di'anno as singer in 1982), but musically, Iron Maiden were in top form on this 1980 album. There's just so much to enjoy on every one of these songs, and man, do they rock! They're fast, exciting, catchy, and super infectious. From front to back, this disc has palpable energy, irresistible hooks, impressive guitar work (including wailing solos) from Dave Murray and Dennis Stratton, prominent bass notes, and bouncy, toe-tapping drum beats galore!

This album sounded like the backing track to an awesome training montage in an 80s action movie. I'm pumped, point me toward the bad guys.

Guitar masturbation with a touch of prog

Prowler is a great opening track and made me immediately rethink Iron Maiden. The drums on Running Free are gloooorious; the sheer rock and roll release that is Phantom of the Opera defines classic rock. The whole album does, if I could bottle classic rock for someone this is it. I'm not a huge Iron Maiden fan but the musicality and muscularity of this album is nothing if not hugely impressive.

UP THE IRONS

Когда меня просили назвать 5 альбомов, чтобы въехать в митол, я среди прочих называл этот. Да и ща бы назвал, наверное. Даже несмотря на осознание ностальгии. Стив Харрис вроде говорил, что мол первый альбом ты пишешь всю жизнь, а второй - когда скажет лейбл. Если бы у Iron Maiden вышел только этот альбом, его уже можно было бы считать нехуёвым делом жизни, в самто деле. Prowler врывается, своей энергией будто открывая новую эпоху роцка и митола, 80-е. Объединяя в себе черты пунка и существовавшего хард-роцка с митолом прокладывает путь всей последующей митольной годноте, спид-митолу, трэш-митолу и иже с ними. Sanctuary звучит немного инородно, слишком прямолинейно, роцк-н-ролльно шоль, митолу не хватат. Не особо мудрено, что трек был присобачен к альбому лишь опосля, а отродясь являлся синглом. Remember Tomorrow разъёбывает просто своей прогрессивной структурой, разнообразными и гармонично сплетёнными партиями и переходами. Хуки просто за яйца цепляют. Running Free звучит как марш, как гимн. Лаконичный и красивый. Даже фрагменты, где просто удары ту, ту-ду, ту-ду ту-ду не напрягают. Вокальная партия - просто блядоход. Phantom of the Opera... то, как я хотел бы видеть прог-митол тех лет. Или арт-митол, не ебёт. Хотел бы побольше такого, чтобы там агрессивные моменты менялись мелодичными и немного шутливыми, это всё отдавало нотками классической музыки, да ещё соляки заставляли позабыть, что вообще-то тут и вокалист есть, менялся доминантный инструмент, они друг друга поддерживали и развивали мотив, не уходя далеко от изначальной темы, и чтобы это было одновременно и доступно, и комплексно, как 2112 от Rush... но подобного саунда, сука, почти больше то и нет! Ни в последующем творчестве Iron Maiden, ни в чьём-либо ещё. Разве что проблесками в качестве отдельных треков, инструменталы Метлы чем-то подобным веют. Transylvania - сильнейший инструментальный трек, балдёжные темы, балдёжные партии, балдёжная структура, разнообразный, энергичный, красивый. Кайфово переходит в следующюю композиуцию. Strange World если врубить левому, он задумается над тем, митол ли это. Впрочем, на то они и баллады. Эта может показаться немного наивной и прямолинейной. Я всё же полагаю, что в меру. Всё на месте, мелодишно, красиво. Charlotte The Harlot уводит баланс альбома назад к пунку и хард-роцку, для разнообразия норм трек, но, как и Sanctuary, выкинь - хуже бы не стало особо. Iron Maiden. Ну в этом треке прекрасно всё, название, наличие в соответствующем альбоме, исполнение одноимённой группой. Барабанны, гитары, вокальные партии, соляки, переходы. Главный мотив разъёбывает, простой, запоминающий и мелодичный. Конец трека прекрасно обрамляет и весь альбом. Фух, выдохнул. Ну бля, это было охуенно. Уж вуз три года, как закончил, а до сих пор альбом школьного времени щеновий восторг вызывает. На самом деле, как никакой другой альбом Iron Maiden, несмотря на то, что главный фронтмен, Брюс Дикинсон, ещё даже не пришёл. Пол Ди’Анно меньше на себя одеяло перетягивал, от него больше веяло молодостью и энергией, а от Дикинсона больше театральщиной будет веять. Всё же с высоты прожитых лет дебютник могу назвать любимейшим альбомом в дискографии Iron Maiden. Продуманный, лаконичный, мелодичный, разнообразный, запоминающийся. Тупа эталон пиздатого музла. И вроде бы въехал в него изначально быстро, а до сих пор не отпускает. Вот чего-то подобного и ждал от списка 1001 альбомов. А этого, сука, не завозят. Была бы воля, поставил 10 из 5, тупо чтоб когда остальные мой энтузиазм не разделят, средняя вышла бы пиздатой всё равно. Ну да ладно, похуй, просто буду морально готов, что пятёр боле не будэ. Главное, что я сам вроде пояснил, чё по чём.

Honestly this is my jam. I’m not sure what it means that Iron Maiden speaks directly to my soul but - hell yes!

Iron Maiden’s brutal debut is a classic. It’s just raw energy captured in 8 tracks of brilliance.

Okay, as a hater of heavy metal in general, I am surprisingly in love with this music. Cheerful and energetic shit.

Not quite the personality of the later Maiden, but you can hear them slowly developing their signature style. Great rock album!

I honestly wanted to hate this but it wasn't so bad and I actually liked a couple songs

Can we just look at the cover and make comments on that? I don't think I've ever heard this entire album. Through a long backward lens it sounds like an amalgam of Motorhead (although less badass), Deep Purple (although less talented), and Status Quo. Yes, Status Quo: There are in fact little bits of high-energy boogie in here. Can't help but feel that with the timing, Rob Reiner had to have been aware of Iron Maiden when he made "This Is Spinal Tap" over the next couple of years. (Released in '84) Not that the film was all about just I.M., but the genre was definitely hitting its fix-your-hair-and-crank-everything-to-11 stride after a slow build all during the 70s. YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

1001 forces you to listen to records that you'd never willingly subject yourself to. I've never actually listened to Iron Maiden in my life and I'm happy to say I didn't miss anything. I can handle some metal, but this is just Pop Metal with some corny guitar riffs in a formulaic style. Meh.

Classic metal album. Really does everything I want an 80s metal album to do.

One of my favorite albums so far with plenty of songs I have added to my regular playlists. Prowler and Phantom of the Opera especially hit home with me.

Very raw Iron Maiden. Some songs really stood out but yeah solid 3.5

Finally a metal album on this thing, but it's the crappy end of maiden. The first album is alright, there are a few good songs on it but the singing is shithouse. Still, even the crappy end of maiden is pretty good. The guitar and bass is fuckin great, and Transylvania is one hell of a tune. 4/5.

No Bruce. No interest.

Hated this stuff when I was young and music was my everything. Time has not dimmed my dislike.

9/10

Hell yes!! Iron Maiden is my favourite heavy metal band!! I've listened to this album many times before, but that won't stop me from listening again! This is Maiden's self titled debut album. This was before the legendary Bruce Dickinson became the lead singer of the band, and gave them that signature sound of vocals soaring overtop of amazing heavy metal! Paul Di'Anno was a great singer as well, but his voice didn't have that strength that Bruce is known for. Paul is well suited to singing metal though, because he has a gravelly voice to match the hard hitting heavy music that accompanied him. Prowler and Phantom of the Opera are classics still to this day! Even though this album pales in comparison to some of the rest of Maiden's vast catalog of music, it isn't as bad as The X-Factor or Virtual XI (two albums made in the middle of Maiden's career when Bruce took a hiatus), and it is a super strong debut album! Iron Maiden are one of the originals in the heavy metal genre, and they have influenced so many!! This is a phenomenal album, and a hell of a talented band! Steve Harris has a vision, and ran with it, and thank God for that, because what we got out of it was this stellar band making this amazing music! Steve's bass work, especially in Transylvania is fucking amazing!!!! UP THE IRONS!!! Favourite songs: Prowler, Phantom of the Opera, Running Free, Transylvania, Iron Maiden Least favourite song: Remember Tomorrow 5/5

This is perfect

Wow! Absolutely perfect album! Iron Maiden delivers again. Solid 5! T3B 1. Prowler 2. Phantom of the Opera 3. Remember Tomorrow

Very catchy riffs, fantastic ballads, very solid debut album.

A great record! I like the singers voice a bit more then Bruce Dickinsons it is more aggressive and the album in general is more aggressive. Good stuff!

Good stuff

One of my all time favourites and one of the first albums I grew to truly love. Underrated work of genius!

-Something about 'Prowler" -"Remember tomorrow" is a pretty cool ballad-type song -"Running Free" is a great, anthemic-type song. Great to, like, chant along to -"Charlotte the Harlot" is a great jam, and the vocal rhythm of the chorus is pretty cool -"Iron Maiden" from "Iron Maiden" by "Iron Maiden" -Great bass that is pretty high in the mix for metal across the whole album -Whole album is great

I used to think of Iron Maiden as super heavy metal but having listened to this is just fun fast and melodic. I listened to this album twice through today because I enjoyed it so much

One of the best albums ever

Previously rated: The Number Of The Beast (5/5) ********************************** First time listening to a pre-Bruce Dickenson Iron Maiden album, and I liked it a lot more than I thought it would. This singer's voice isn't as unique, but it's not bad. A couple of songs gave me Deep Purple vibes. I liked everything here, no duds. I will listen to this again. It rocks!

Absolute banger!

Never listened to Iron Maiden, I liked the album a lot, was pleasantly surprised.

Wow…I wasn’t expecting this. I’ve never really given these guys a fair shake because I’m not incredibly partial to metal but I was blown away. It’s not what I was expecting in the best way possible. Lots of melodic movements and themes, coupled with heavier riffs and shredding at times but not overdone. Really enjoyed this a lot! Standout tracks: Prowler, Phantom of the Opera, strange world

Album fav: Strange World

I’m all in. One of my top 5 bands of all time. I prefer the Bruce Dickinson era… but IM was one of the leaders of the second British heavy metal invasion. 🤘🏻✊🏻👍

This is an album that must be experienced by all music fans, regardless of music genre. It is the first of several must-have recording by one of the premier metal bands.

Iron Maiden is metal

UP THE IRONS!

Still holds up to this day. You can’t take this out of the Maiden cannon with want it meant to a generation!

A good romp from early Iron Maiden, what a way to get into the band.

- Phantom of the Opera - Transylvania - Strange World - Iron Maiden

Amazing. Didn’t realize how the band started and kicked so much ass.

first song is absolutely amazing, not a single thing i can say bad about it really, love the solo in remember tomorrow, so far have really great thoughts on this album. next few tracks have absolutely not disappointed, amazing skill on the guitar has been shown coupled with amazing vocals unlike anyone else ive heard (at least at the level theyre at) and for this to be a debut record? an insane start to an insane career iron maiden has. very positive experience overall. amazing record

Banging album! Classy early metal, riffs for days!

Damn this is so good. I've never heard this album before, and clearly I've been missing out.

"Prowler" "Remember Tomorrow" "Running Free" "Phantom of the Opera" "Transylvania" "Charlotte the Harlot" "Iron Maiden"

Really groundbreaking and influential stuff here. As one of the seminal bands of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal, Iron Maiden's sounds can be found in every single metal band since this album debuted. Bands such as Metallica's whole mission statement was bringing the NWOBHM sound to the US and we all know how that turned out. Iron Maiden's self-titled debut is far more punk sounding than the galloping, wailing Iron Maiden they eventually become known as. That may be due largely to this album not featuring Iconic singer "Air Raid Siren" Bruce Dickinson's touch. All the past stuff aside this album holds up. It's such a piece of music history that it's hard to dislike it. This album is still influencing bands today. Ghost even recently covered Iron Maiden's version of "Phantom of the Opera" for their Phantomime covers EP earlier this year. It may not be as theatrical as one might expect but it's importance stands tall. 5

I fucking love Iron Maiden, this album kicks ass! Shred on my friends. Favorite song: Phantom Of The Opera

A fantastic album very entertaining from start to finish and a bunch of really good songs

Fantastic debut album by one of the greatest hard rock bands. Starts strong with Prowler, a great riff. Slow down with Remember tomorrow before punching into Running free followed quickly by another classic track Phantom of the opera. A couple of "album tracks" follow before the great Charlotte and finale with the title track. A great album, well put together, it all flows smoothly. It was clear, with this album, in 1980 that Iron Maiden were going to be big.

Not my favorite album by them but it is still Iron Maiden

It's amazing how the bass almost takes the lead over the album. Prowler is a great fast-paced song to start the album, and while it's fast, it doesn't mean the other songs are also like that; while there are some slow and calm ones, and even some stranges I can't explain, there are also the instrumental, wich is really good.

First listen ever, was a little nervous because the album art looks off putting to me but the music absolutely blew me away.

Fantastic album. Can definitely see the influence that they expand on in later albums.

The new wave of British Heavy Metal was gathering unprecedented speed, largely emboldened and reawakened by the bulldozing power of punk and one of the bands that became synonymous with not only the movement but the heavy metal genre as a whole started a decade of decadence that would rival any others. Iron Maiden MK 1 started out with the sounds that gave many a listeners a hair raising, corpse like jolt as though they were the mascot on the cover (his name is Eddie, by the way). They haven't gotten the numbers of the beast in their disposal and they weren't the iconic juggernauts they'd later become but this is still a solid effort and a great debut from one of heavy metal's all time greats. Shout out to Paul Di'Anno, the inaugural lead singer of Iron Maiden, his performance is nothing to sneeze at.

Peak iron maiden and maybe the peak of the new wave of British heavy metal

Straight banger

This is such a 5 it’s not even funny. They did this in 13 days??? And they now think the production and recording was garbage? Well fuck me then. Fuck me for LOVING this sound, this dry, raw, band in a dead little room sound! It’s incredible! Every song seems to outdo the previous one. I had my music stank face on, for this epic 20-minute run, straight from Remember Tomorrow into Strange World. I can only assume that, if they recorded this in 13 days, and they were given as little guidance as they supposedly had, it was immaculately rehearsed beforehand. This kind of music isn’t accidental or thrown together. Now I’m happy I just gave that Motörhead album a 3. This is adjacent but far, far superior. Always got turned off by their gaudy covers so never gave Iron Maiden a shot. A fool I was! A fool! If my friends start wondering about me and why I like heavy metal now apparently, I’ll just put this album on because it’s self-explanatory. An EXTREME hell yes 5/5, made me purchase an electric guitar.

perfection!!! A true metal classic!!

Another stone cold classic

Iron Maiden's powerhouse debut quickly establishes them as heavy metal gods.

One of the all-time debut albums. So much energy, so much tension. The bass is so so good. Really puts the punk-metal "divide" into focus -- like, if you took out all the guitar solos, this would be ur-punk.

Okay Iron Maiden officially has moved from "they're pretty good" to "damn I've been sleeping on one of the greats" Every. Single. Track on this bad boy.

I was expecting more dissonance and noise. Pleasantly surprised it was just a solid rock album.

Hell Yeah! There's a reason why metal is probably my favorite genre. It's just so cool, and bands like Iron Maiden are proof of that. I've always wanted to get into Iron Maiden, but I haven't really had the time. Now I have an excuse to listen to one of their albums, and their first one at that! So, do I like Iron Maiden's self-titled debut? Yeah! I like it a lot! The most notable thing about the first two Iron Maiden albums is the difference in lineup. The sound is a bit different on here from what I normally think of when Iron Maiden comes to mind, largely because Bruce Dickinson wasn't the vocalist until their third album. For the first two albums, we get Paul Di'Anno on vocals instead. While I love Bruce Dickinson's vocals, Paul Di'Anno absolutely deserves praise as well. He's a strong vocalist that makes these songs work. Other than that, the core of Iron Maiden is still here in full. The guitar style, fantastical writing, and sheer energy are present right from the very beginning. There are slower parts that also work pretty well in songs like "Strange World." Overall, while I'm sure Iron Maiden has made better albums since this one, their first album is still a strong debut. Unfortunately, it was announced earlier today that Paul Di'Anno passed away at only 66 years old. Damn. At least he will always have an important place in metal history. This album is a High 4/5. RIP Paul Di'Anno.

Definitely a high 4, especially as it came up on the day Paul Di'Anno passed away. RIP.

Courageous!

Arguably the better of the two Di’Anno albums and a reliable ‘go to’ album that will always deliver the goods. Running Free, Phantom of the Opera and Iron Maiden are still highlights in any Maiden set. N.B. Paul Di’Anno is just a bit of a twat

Up the Irons! Definitely a bigger fan of Bruce’s output with the band but still some great songs on here

It’s always a shock loading up some Iron Maiden and not getting Bruce on the mic, but this record holds its own as a debut. The biggest draw is the playing; top notch across the board. Even Paul bring his on style that really feels his own. I see why this really ushered in NWOBHM. The biggest drawbacks here are the production and songwriting. The rawness really makes it sound more thin than aggressive; not fitting for their style IMO. And while the songwriting isn’t bad per se, it doesn’t reach the heights that many of their later masterpieces showcase.

I hear a lot of Led Zeppelin in this album, but I can't tell if that's because I listen to only Led Zeppelin in this genre, or if they are that influential. Either way, I like Led Zeppelin and therefore I like this album.

Phantom of the opera was my favourite

ну бля. соррян, господа митолизды, но почти ничего в душе не затронуло (хотя как раз к айрон мейдену я как-то всегда более благосклонно относился, чем к дичи типа слейера или мегадефа). Альбом 80-го года, конечно навевает мысли, что дохуя новаторство для своего времени, но как учил мудрец «Важно ли глядеть на груду кирпичей, когда построен пиздатый дом? Да не очень». Но для адекватности отбросил оценку звучания, ибо все понимаю, в 80м году вероятно ещё слабое представление имели о том, как должна тяжелая музыка звучать. А по композиторству ну что сказать... довольно дрочево, как по мне. Риффаков эпохальных не завезли, разве что чистый перебор в третьей песне звучит как что-то вневременное. И вообще баллады хорошие, обе. Не прям топ-10, но приятные, вокалист чутко так воет, аж яички холодеют немного. Помимо них ещё первую песню можно назвать хайлайтом — неплохая мелодия, вокал отрывистый и маломузыкальный, но для жанра норм. Ничем не обоснованные замедления я, скрипя зубами, стерпел, тоже вроде особенность. Но дальше, блен... Ну вторая песня вообще худшая на альбоме, вероятно. Запомнилась только одна припевная фраза и звуки сирены (банально пиздец, но опять же делаем скидку на время, спасибо что хоть отрывки из новостей не вставили). Потом Ранинг Фри — ну это совсем хуета. За всю песню мы слышим её название 32 раза (если условно считать заикания «айми раннинг... айм раннинг»). Я ебал, сука, айм ранинг фри, е, айм ранинг фри... Здесь даже рифмы нет! Фу блять, фу нахуй. В Фантоме Оперы есть зачатки годноты, но основа трека — бессмысленная дрочь с очень условным развитием, больше похоже на гитарные упражнения. Ещё и театральщина какая-то, которой фанатом никогда не был. Ну и вокал на манер армейской кричалки чет совсем аппетит отбивает. В Трансильвании какие-то шведские фолк-мотивы, как будто инфламес слушаю альбом, конечно, опередил самих инфламес на 10 лет, но всё же в плане нордического фолка я скорее доверюсь им по праву рождения, здесь же не то чтобы напрягает... просто какой-то несерьёзностью сразу веет. Я вообще довольно негативно к фолку отношусь, как по мне его надо максимально аккуратно эксплуатировать, чтобы не вышло какой-то банальной хуйни, убивающей всю эпичность но в целом трек не то чтобы плохой, просто хуй не возбуждает Ну дальше там проходняк какой-то, и заканчивается все кавером на Whenever Wherever Шакиры. Ход, безусловно, смелый и уважабельный, но текст зря изменили, какая-то влажная кровавая фантазия... ну цэ немного слишком для меня, кринж же. В целом не говно, конечно, просто дистиллированный митол — не моё, по всей видимости, плюс такой старый. Должное отдать могу, поэтому сойдусь на оценке чуть больше середняковой, 6/10.

I don't doubt that this album is notable and influential. I acknowledge that the vocals are powerful and technically impressive and that the band shreds. But I honestly don't feel like this album is actually good. I almost enjoyed Prowler and Running Free but found Strange World completely cornball and Charlotte the Harlot more offensive in its lack of originality than in its harlot-shaming. My feeling is that I enjoyed Number of the Beast more than this but, checking my records, I see I gave that album a 2. This isn't a 1 but maybe a 1.5.

Not my scene, but it is interesting that I never listened to this before considering how prevalent their fans were in the 1980s. I am told their later stuff is more developed and the singing is better. . . I can see how they influenced later metal genres, but again, this is not my cup of tea. There is a bit of sameness to each song and the tone of the guitars is grating and unpleasant. The singing is British post-punk and pre-hair metal chic. I find it to be unlistenable even as workout music. . .

je comprends pas la hype autour de ce groupe

no.

Alright, I have to admit I didn't listen to the whole thing., I just could not do it. And this is no aging arsehole being smug thing, I could not cop it back in the day. This is literally, and I mean literally, Spinal Tap. As I dropped the Youtube clip onto the first track I immediately started thinking about the Tap scene with the lowering of the tiny Stonehenge sarsen onto the stage, and I'll leave you with that thought.

My first reaction on seeing today’s pick was ‘oh God, no’. This is not my type of music, but I was willing to give it another go. I am sure they are talented musicians and have made a lot of money making a lot of people happy. However, this was just an affront to my ears. Screechy guitars and raspy voices. Just Horrible. To quote a later album - Run to the hills.

Mediocre

Op gronde van het feit dat dit kut muziek is, weiger ik dit te luisteren.

Truly painful to get through. Did not enjoy

Its of no artistic value whatsoever. A little white guy moaning about the plight of the little white guy.

This is the sort of music that would come on Kerrang! when I was 14 and I'd switch to Scuzz. It's repetitive, boring and predictable - and that's coming from someone who listens to and actually enjoys Techno music. I also hate the scary people they use on their album art. For what was meant to be the golden age of vinyl artwork they really shat the bed on this one.

Fikk ikke hørt hele albumet pga sykdom. Hørte et par sanger, det holdt i masse vis 😂

My best friend at secondary school used to make me Maiden tapes. I tried to like them then, and I thought I would try again, l see if I like them any better now. I don’t. Not the worst metal band I have ever heard but that isn’t saying much. Lots of guitar, none of it of much interest to me.

Status Quo after too many beers.

So this is the band from those hoodies (you know the ones) they are black, have an album cover on the front and and stink of B.O. I guess if your into iron maiden then you are into IRON MAIDEN because every song is the same.

Not a fan of the genre

80s metal ain't really my vibe...If Wheatus asked me to go the Iron Maiden gig on Friday, I wouldn't even say maybe

80’er rock/metal, tempofyldt, gritty

just silly.

Nope, don't like it.

Tal vez es muy obvio darle cinco estrellas, pero en verdad creo que, especialmente para ser un debut, es un discazo. Y tan es así que a la fecha la banda sigue tocando casi en cada concierto 4 de esas rolas. Estoy seguro que hay discos posteriores de Maiden que me gustan más, pero eso no le quita mérito a este que deja muy claro que buscaban un sonido y un estilo que hasta la fecha nadie tenía y aquí ponen los cimientos para eso.

Yeah. So good. Makes me want to go for a run and hit some stuff. But then changes to mellow . 10/10

Gran disco debut de una de las bandas líderes del NWOBHM lleno de energía y poder. 8 canciones, 37 minutos, contundente y sin miramientos como un batazo a la cabeza. Suben y bajan de velocidad cuando es requerido y lo hacen excelentemente. Discazo necesario de escuchar al menos una vez en la vida si uno presume o pretende conocer de metal en general. Songs: Running Free, Transylvania, Iron Maiden, Phantom of the Opera.

Full of barn burners.
