First off, the new Ulcerate is my 2020 album of the year. Nice shirt. As for Maiden rankings, 1 - Piece of Mind 2 - Killers/Iron Maiden/Number of the Beast/Somewhere in Time/Powerslave/Seventh Son of a Seventh Son...whatever else.

1: powerslave- my favourite album of all time. Perfect 11/10 . 2: the number of the beast- sounds normie to say, but all the songs are good. 3: seventh son of a seventh son- my favourite for the longest time. Changed recently. 4: somewhere in time- great production and songwriting. 5: fear of the dark- great cover art and, other than weekend warrior, every song is great. 6: killers 7: piece of mind 8: brave new world 9: a matter of life and death 10: iron maiden- great album but the production does bring it down. 11: book of souls 12: no prayer for the dying 13: dance of death 14: the final frontier 15: the X factor 16: virtual XI

You should do a ranking of your favorite non metal bands/artists

Good ranking!!! I like to see Dance of Death be given the love it deserves, I adore that album, kind of how you like Brave New World. Wouldn't say it's my second favorite but it's high up. Also nice to see the debut shown the love it deserves!

Great choice for best Iron Maiden song! With epic part 'One after one, by the star dogged moon....too quick for groan of sigh.....' Best song of all time

Unpopular opinion, but the X-Factor is one of my favorite Maiden albums :)

Nice my 2nd favourite band. Love your vids

Love your list. Don’t agree but I respect how these songs make you feel and in the end that is all that matters.

My ranking: 1. Ssoass 2. Powerslave 3. Somewhere in time 4. Number if the beast 5. Piece of mind 6. Brave new world 7. No prayer for the dying 8. Book of Souls 9. Iron Maiden 10. Dance of Death 11. Final Frontier 12. Fear of the Dark 13. Senjutsu 14. A matter of life and Death 15. Killers 16. Virtual 17. The x factor

My Top10 10.- Killers 9.- A matter if life and death 8.- Fear of the dark 7.- Dance of death 6.- 7th son of a 7th son 5.- The number of the beast 4.- Piece of mind 3.- Iron Maiden 2.- Somewhere in time 1.- Powerslave

Your top 3 is basically identical to mine, except I tend to put Somewhere in Time on top. I do go back and forth between Somewhere in Time and Brave New World. The Brave New World title track hits me hard every time; it's so melancholy and profound. But Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner is probably my favorite workout song of all-time. Powerslave is insanely good and The Duelist is a very, very special song for me, in the running for my favorite, but the other two just slightly edge it out. As a child of the 80's, Somewhere in Time is the perfect gestalt of all the 80's greatest musical tendencies, the Devastator of 80's music if you will.

“Stranger in a Strange Land”, one of the most underrated Maiden songs.

Surprised nobody has ranked AMOLAD first. That is Maiden's real masterpiece, with Powerslave close behind. But AMOLAD has to be listened to quite a few times and lyrics are a must, or else you'll never fully appreciate. And for those of us who were fortunate to see it played live in '06 from start to finish, I'm sure that experience bumps it up the rankings list for most. Probably the most impressive 72 minutes I've seen from any band in concert. Stunning.

17. Virtual 11 16. X factor 15. No prayer for the dying 14. Senjutsu 13. Fear of the dark 12. A matter of life and death 11. Final frontier 10. Iron Maiden 9. Killers 8. Book of souls 7.

1. Somewhere in time 2. Brave new world 3. Dance of Death For me

I'm old so Piece of Mind got me into the band but surprisingly Seventh Son is my favorite. Agree that No Prayer gets a bum rap.

1. Somewhere In Time 2. Powerslave 3. Seventh Son 4. Number Of The Beast 5. Brave New World 6. Killers 7. Peace Of Mind 8. Matter Of Life And Death 9. Iron Maiden 10. Book Of Souls 11. No Prayer For The Dying 12. Final Frontier 13. Dance Of Death 14. Fear Of The Dark I like all of the above. 15. X Factor 16. Virtual XI Not so keen on the Blaze albums.

Solid rankings if judging by what I have. My #16, #15, #14 and #13 is exactly the same as yours. Also good to see Brave New World and Seventh Son get the kind of respect they deserve imo. Some Maiden fans rank Brave New World nearly last of the 16 and I've never understood it. One thing I don't get. You say Piece of Mind would be a perfect album if not for 2 bad songs that you wish were off the album. How about just skip those 2 songs? Now you have your perfect album.

Hey Questy, just discovered your channel through Bryce - there's A LOT of content waiting for me♥ I especially enjoy the album rankings.

10/10 Number of the beast 9.8/10 Live After Death 9.8/10 Somewhere in time 9.7/10 Powereslave (would be 9.8, but Somewhere has way cooler b-sides) 9.5/10 Maiden Japan 9.4/10 Debut 9.3/10 Maiden England 9.2/10 No Prayer For The Dying 9/10 Killers 8.9/10 A Real Live Dead One 8.8/10 Seventh Son 8.5/10 Fear Of The Dark 8/10 Piece Of Mind

The thing that has always puzzled me the most about Iron Maiden album rankings is the low placement of Fear Of The Dark. Even on this channel it’s continued and in people’s rankings. It is without a doubt their most underrated album in my opinion, should be ranked in the middle. I think Powerslave and Brave New World are a little overrated.

A Matter of Life and Death is basically The X Factor but with Bruce

1. Number Of The Beast 2. Piece Of Mind 3. Brave New World 4. Somewhere In Time 5. Powerslave 6. Dance Of Death 7. Killers 8. Iron Maiden 9. Seventh Son .. 10 A Matter Of Life And Death

Yeah for me Powerslave is their best! Nice video, thanks. What do you think of Senjutsu?

Somewhere In Time was the first album I heard from them and made me a fan of them :) and after all these years and after I've listened to all the albums of the band many times, it's still my favorite album...other favorite albums, Piece Of Mind, The Number Of The Beast, 7th Son Of A 7th Son and Dance Of Death, Dance Of Death, for me at least, is the best album since Bruce returned to the band...the "not so good" albums of the band are, again for me, Virtual XI, No Prayer For The Dying, Fear Of The Dark and The Final Frontier...the albums with Di Anno were good, not as good as the ones I mentioned, but good...the X-Factor was definitely better than Virtual XI, I even liked it more than No Prayer For The Dying and Fear Of The Dark...again, nice video :)

O yeah literally identical to my list

The rhyme of the ancient mariner is my favorite maiden song too!

I love "Quest for fire" lol.

Quest of fire and flight of icarus are pure masterpieces. You are wrong on that 😎 Favorite are 1) seventh son, piece of mind, powerslave, somewhere in time, number of the beast

Best five are Iron Maiden, Seventh Son, Brave New World, Piece of Mind and Somewhere in Time. Worst is No Prayer for the Dying.

1. A Matter of Life and Death 2. Dance of Death 3. X Factor 4. Fear of the Dark 5. Killers

1.Brave New World 2. Seven son..... 3. Somwehre in time 4. Pies of mind 5. X- factor

Great List Man, But Where Would Senjutsu Go?

Somewhere in time is my best, I wish the band would play more songs from it.

1.Brave New World 2.Seventh Son of a Seventh Son 3.The Final Frontier 4.Powerslave 5.Iron Maiden

1. Somewhere in time 2. Brave new world 3. Number of the beast 4. Seventh son of a seventh son 5. Powerslave 6. Piece of mind 7. Killers 8. Iron maiden 9. Book of souls 10. Fear of the dark 11. A matter of life and death 12. Final frontier 13. Dance of death 14. No prayer of the dying And the other two

@Quest for metal You said you've never heard something like Journeyman before. We'll. Try Arc of Space, from 1997 Bruce's solo album Accident of Birth. You have the seed right there

Would you do a ranking on Venom?

for me as die hard fan the only album i don't really like is No Prayer to the Dying and my favorite is A Metter of Life and Dead

Before I watch this video I will do my ranking of my favorite band of all time… Up the Irons!!!! 1. Powerslave 2. Piece of Mind 3. Seventh Son of a Seventh Son 4. Killers 5. Fear of the Dark 6. A Matter of Life and Death 7. Dance of Death 8. Iron Maiden 9. The Number of the Beast 10. Brave New World 11. Somewhere in Time 12. No Prayer for the Dying 13. The X Factor 14. The Book of Souls 15. The Final Frontier 16. Virtual XI Waiting for Senjutsu to debut and this may throw my ranking later. Kick ass!!!

Before watching Brave New world has to be number 1

I think No Prayer and Fear need to be higher up (not in the top 5 tho). You need to make a new list including Senjutsu now 🤩

haha "people should put seventh son higher" crack up, i literally ranked it at like number 12 or something in my video haha

It's funny to hear someone say brave new world got them into maiden. Great list I cant argue. They dont know how to put out a bad album even with blaze bailey they rock.

1. Iron Maiden 2. Brave new World 3. Somewhere in Time 4. Seventh Son of a seventh Son 5. Piece of Mind 6. Number of the Beast 7. Powerslave 8. Fear of the Dark 9. No Prayer for the Dying 10. Killers 11. X Factor 12. Dance of Death 13. Final Frontier 14. A matter of Life and Death 15. Senjutsu 16. Virtual XI 17. Book of Souls

Yeah brother Blaze's voice just did not work within Maiden. But, i saw Wolfsbane in the very early nineties and they were immense. For me Seventh Son is my top Maiden album.

Brave New World at #2 is incomprehensible but at least you didn't put it at the top, props for that, lol. Also, go easier on the ads. I never sub to channels that think they can harass their viewers with ads every four minutes.

my holy trinity : seven son, somewhere, powerslave

Somewhere in Time is the best album by Iron Maiden. The Loneliness of the Long-Distance Runner is the absolute best!

Don't look to the eyes of a stranger is another good song from virtual xI

1. The Number of the Beast - Gangland sucks, the rest is an instant classic 2. Seventh Son - Maiden in perfection 3. Brave New World - No bad song on the album 4. Iron Maiden - one of the greatest debuts of all time 5. Somewhere in Time - Love it, great artwork 6. Powerslave - Rime of the Ancient Mariner, Aces High, any questions? 7. The Book of Souls - Maiden back to old class 8. Piece of Mind - first five songs are great, the rest is ok 9. Dance of Death - terrible cover, but the title track and Paschendale are master pieces 10. Fear of the Dark - title track and afraid to shoot strangers are brillant, the rest is mediocre 11. X Factor - better than it's reputation. WOuld be much higher with Bruce 12. Killers - I prefer the debut. 13. A Matter of Live and death - Not bad, but also not great 14. The Final Frontier - Didn't click for me, but didn't hurt either 15. No Prayer for the dying - The 90s weren't Maiden's decade 16. Virtual XI - No Comment

I would go... 16.Virtual XI, 15.The Final Frontier 14. No Prayer for the Dying 13. X Factor 12. A Matter of Life and Death 11. Dance of Death 10. Fear of the Dark 9. Somewhere in Time 8. Brave New World 7. The Book of Souls 6. Iron Maiden 5. Killers 4. Seventh Son of a Seventh Son 3. Number of the Beast 2. Piece of Mind 1. Powerslave

My ranking from top to bottom: 1. Number of the beast

1 The number of the beast. 2 Seventh Son of a Seventh Son. 3 Iron Maiden. 4 Killers. 5 Somewhere in time. 6 Powerslave. 7 Piece of mind. 8 Fear of the dark. 9 Senjustu. 10 No prayer for the dying.

Somewhere in Time and Powerslave for me. Many great albums though

1 Somewhere in time 2 TNOTB 3 Killers 4 7th Son 5 Powerslave 6 Peace of mind

For me The Number of the Beast is the best

Dance of death final frontier and virtual xi are really underrated

Well done, Lad! Powerslave is not only Maiden's best album, but I argue it is the best metal album of all time. Pound for pound, chord for chord, it can go toe to toe with master of Puppets, Reign In Blood, Painkiller, or you name it..... Iron Maiden at the absolute top of their game kicking ass and taking names. I'm happy when I see other people agree with me! And thanks for defending No Prayer For The Dying... I don't know why so many people shit on it like they do. Did they even listen to it???? The album flat out rocks. I guess it's hard to get on board after a gem like Seventh Son, but saying it sucks??? Those that hate can put down and piss off.

Powerslave definitely number 1 for me. Number of the beast then peace of mind come in second and third. The rest I would rank pretty much the same.

X-Factor is in my Top 3, fantastic album. people just hate it be cause 'muuh Blaze''. X-Factor is the last great album by Maiden imo. my favorite still Somewher ein Time

6 : no prayer for the dying 5 : piece in mind 4 : somewhere in time 3 :brave new wolrd 2 : number of the. Beast 1 : powerslave . Is my top 6 albums. Other albums seventh son of a seventh son iron maiden that's all

1. Seventh son of a Seventh son 2. Powerslave 3. Piece of mind 4. No Prayer for the Dying 5. Final Frontier

Top 3, powerslave, somewhere in time, and number of the beast

I’m with you on your top 2. BNW is their most singable album, while PS has a brutal, unmatched energy.

1. Seventh son of a seventh son 2. Piece of mind 3. Somewhere in time 4. Iron maiden 5. The number of the beast
