1982’s The Number of the Beast introduced the epic songwriting and literary lyricism that would become the band’s trademark. Maiden would follow that up with Killers in 1981 before Di’Anno was replaced by ex-Samson singer Bruce Dickinson, with Harris, Burr, and guitarists Dave Murray and Adrian Smith rounding out the five piece. The daring and aggressive album launched the band to the forefront of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM) movement, alongside acts like Judas Priest, Diamond Head, and Angel Witch. The Legacy of the Beast cannot be disputed, nor can the band’s intense work ethic.įormed in 1975 by bassist Steve Harris, Iron Maiden’s first established lineup - featuring vocalist Paul Di’Anno and drummer Clive Burr - released their self-titled debut in 1980.

If they aren’t touring, they’re releasing a live album or filming epic music videos or documentaries. If Maiden’s not making a record, they’re on tour. Better yet, the band feed the frenzy, continuing to serve the fans with new material and merchandise. The Maiden fanbase can be obsessive to the point of zealotry, dissecting the nooks and crannies of every song and collecting the band’s T-shirts and records with fervor (the red Iron Maiden logo and their skeletal mascot, Eddie, remain timelessly metal). Their music is a world language, with the British band garnering dedicated audiences on practically every continent. They’ve come to define the genre, prolifically releasing albums and touring relentlessly. įor over 40 years, Iron Maiden have proven to be one of heavy metal’s most consistent and enduring institutions. This time, we follow Iron Maiden’s legendary career, from their 1980 self-titled debut to their most recent effort, 2021’s Senjutsu. It’s exact science by way of a few beers.
