Per wiki...”The band’s discography has grown to 41 albums, including 17 studio albums, 13 live albums, four EPs, and seven compilations. They have also released 47 singles and 20 video albums. Two electronic games have been released with Iron Maiden soundtracks, and the band’s music is featured in a number of other video games.”

I’m not a heavy metal fan, but you’re right...this is a cool story.

Iron Maiden is perhaps the best heavy metal band (in the traditional sense) ever. They are really a progressive rock band - they write very interesting songs that can go 7+ mins long and were influenced by Genesis - with a loud three-guitar attack, galloping bass, almost groovy drums, and an inexhaustible frontman who flies jets.

They keep releasing new music that sounds fresh and innovative. They sell out stadiums. And their core lineup hasn't OD'd or broken up with hate.
