I listened to it again today after watching this and I still like the debut and seven or eight of their other albums better than Killers. Killers has been basically an EP to me since I got it after Number of the Beast came out. I like three songs ALOT and I skip the rest unless (like today) I'm giving it the old college try one more time.

@@patriotpizzaman Wow, really? This truly proves that we hear things differently. I consider KILLERS, not only Iron Maiden's BEST album, but one of the great LPs of the early 80s from any artist. Every last song on KILLERS is brilliant, fantastic, memorable and highly effective! DiAnno's unhinged voice nearly puts me in a trance and the riffs are all marvelously catchy and indelible. TNOTB, for example is really only "half" good. And the debut is pretty much a set up for the greatness that IS Killers. So yeah, saying that we disagree is a major understatement! M ⚡

The usual thought stimulating gig, guys - thank you. I'm with you about 'Killers', except that my respect for Bruce doesn't stop it from being comfortably my favourite Maiden album. I'm afraid that I can't regard Motorhead as a NWOBHM band so they don't figure in what I'll confine to a Top Five albums of the sub-genre but, for what it's worth, here it is: 1. Saxon 'Wheels of Steel' 2. Iron Maiden 'Killers' 3. Saxon 'Power and the Glory' 4. Def Leppard 'High 'n' Dry' 5. Saxon 'Strong Arm of the Law'

This is the first time I've been able to make a list of every album without having to listen to any of them. With the exception of the 1st Saxon album, the rest were in heavy rotation for years. I matched 4 picks each. My number one is TNOTB. It was the first metal album I heard, it's a before and after moment. And it's probably the greatest album cover ever. I'm with Martin on Motorhead, their last three albums are as enjoyable to me as any of the classic lineup records. Great show. Always more NWOBHM.

At first I thought Martin said modern Motorhead ruined his appreciation of the band overall which I agreed with until I realised he didn't mean that. For me the real band was up to No Remorse and Killed By Death the last great song. It got pretty ropey after that with Phil Taylor rejoining and then Lemmy moving to the USA.

We all hear things differently but I still think Pyromania is about 90% High and Dry and only 10% Hysteria. It’s still a full on hard rock album that just happened to explode in popularity. It was written with Willis still in the band and came out in January 1983 so it certainly wasn’t influenced by the hair metal era, it was just about to start. I don’t know, I think it gets shit on a little too much these days. I was at the perfect age, I turned 15 in March 1983 and all my friends who listened to hard rock and metal had it. It had big hits but if anything Bringing on the Heartbreak from the previous record was more of a chick-bait ballad than anything on Pyromania. And Die Hard the Hunter alone might be my favorite DL song. Edited to clarify: I didn’t mean it got crapped on by Pete and Martin, I just mean in general when it comes up in these conversations most seem to diss it now.

The Power and The Glory (1983) Btw, Paul D. rules on KILLERS!! It's one of the best metal/punk vocal performances ever! The best music has an ability to make you feel like you're high on drugs, while totally straight. KILLERS...the songs, the playing, and Paul DiAnno's incredible, unhinged vocals do just that! Marc ⚡

Guys, good lists and all, but I think you're slighting (esp. Martin) SAXON. They were full of personality and attitude! And throughout '79-'83, there's a BUNCH of really good, memorable songs! Pete gets it with Saxon. But to both of you, the Saxon "debut" features that killer opening of Rainbow Theme/Frozen Rainbow 🌀🌈. How could ANY Rock fan not love that?!? Plus, its also got Stallions Of The Highway, Judgement Day and the underrated Still Fit To Boogie. Not saying the debut is a "great" LP, or that it competes with the subsequent records through Power & The Glory, but I AM saying that you guys, and most others, are putting it off as if it doesn't matter. It's better than that. The other 4 Saxons are all really good to excellent! Btw, KILLERS (1981) by Iron Maiden is the #1 choice for this. Stunningly excellent, cohesive, brilliant album. Every song is fantastic! And you cannot say that about the other Maiden LPs that surround this absolute classic ... KILLERS 🔥 ML

I love Iron Maiden but Motörhead is supreme in this arena for me. I listen to Motörhead wayyyy more than any of these other bands, except Def Leppard which I just don't listen to. I just saw Saxon on tour with Uriah Heep. Both bands were incredible. That said I tried to give a reasonable top 10, but it's all Motörhead and Maiden lol. Real #1 No Sleep 'til Hammersmith 1.

@@GordonHeaney and for the record...Iron Maiden were formed in 1975...Motorhead were formed in 1975...Saxon were formed in 1975...Def Leppard were formed in 1976. This whole idea that Motorhead were way more established and don't belong is simply not true. Yes, Lemmy was in Hawkwind, but let's not pretend that Hawkwind were some huge band and he was a household name. Even though that first Motorhead album was recorded early, Motorhead wasn't release till August of 1977, and other than in the UK, the rest of the world had no clue who they were until Overkill and Bomber a year and a half later.

Martin has repeatedly said that if he had to pick his best NWOBHM albums, seven or so of the top ten would be from Maiden or Leppard. In this video, only four bands have been considered. Yet, that math still doesn’t work. When bands with smaller discographies are counted, I’d like to hear Martin’s overall top ten NWOBHM records. Perhaps that could be done next Friday.

If you listen to Gangland though the eyes of it potentially being a track written during the Dianno era, I think that you will enjoy it even more because it has elements of old an new Maiden. Strictly speaking, Motorhead came way before the NWOBM name was created but I get why they are on the list because to many, they were new at the time. I don't get all the love for In Through The Night because it is rather weak, with only Rocks Off being really great. It may have been aimed at he American market, which might explain why they spent a lo of time across the pond, being labelled as sell-outs to quite a few fans at the time. Likewise, although High and Dry has some stone cold classics, tracks like You Got Me Runnin, Lady Strange, On Through the Night, Mirror, Mirror (Look into My Eyes) and No No No (the whole of the second side) are rather weak in comparison with the majesty of side 1. Pyromania is where thigs really took off with a petty much perfect album, chock full of never lift the needle tracks. In the UK we also had an additional Motorhead album, On Parole (1979), which was released by the fist label without permission and has some tracks from the first album and some not featured elsewhere at the time.

I disagree with Tygers Of Pan Tang being a big drop after these four ...... In 1981, they released both Spellbound and Crazy Nights, and if Def Lpeppard are allowed to be judged on their first 2 albums, and Saxon are termed "big", then the Tygers are right up there. I know it's all "ifs and buts", but imagine what they might have achieved if John Sykes had stayed.
