Heavy Metal Ping!!!

It is one wicked album. The guitar work on it is amazing with a ton of catchy hooks and riffs.

Yes! YES! Up the Irons!!

As a long-time Iron Maiden fan, it’s wonderful to see Iron Maiden getting their full due as the music force they are.

For me, personally, I find “Piece of Mind” and “Powerslave” to be the best Iron Maiden albums to date, but “Number of the Beast” certainly ranks as one of the greatest albums of all time nonetheless.

Wouldn’t argue with Maiden, the Beatles or Floyd. Never even heard of Adele. Depeche Mode and Oasis? Come on.

The big one missing for me from that list would be Black Sabbath, at least one of the first six albums would need to be represented in my top 10 somewhere.

Given the current police state that we once knew as Great Britain, could this selection be a harbinger?

This is the guy that Dos Equis needs in their commercials as the most interesting man alive. The dude is the front man for an iconic British Metal band, a good enough fencer to spar with the British Olympic team and a certified commercial pilot who actually moonlights for a real airline.
