Top 10 Riffs: Iron Maiden

[@jesselucero4581]

You could easily have a part 2 of this because Maiden has an endless catalogue of some of the greatest riffs of all time. Mariner, Loneliness Of The long distance runner, Powerslave, Somewhere In Time and many others could’ve easily been on this list. Up The Irons!

[@DaniloVicari]

Yeah 100% agree 🤘🏻

[@guillermocolocho2417]

Killers, Twilight zone, Invaders, Seventh son, etc.

[@vanwhitaker518]

The Red and the Black

[@rojopo1971]

Jesse Lucero sea of madness

[@brendan7660]

Yes, The Loneliness of the long distance runner is extremely underrated

[@greyskygaming5105]

4:16 Hallowed Be Thy Name is one of the best riffs ever made, it’s just so powerful to me

[@tenzing2090]

Your timing is way off wtf 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@jamespell1138]

@@tenzing2090 it's spot on actually, the riff that's starts at 4:16 is hallowed be thy name

[@NateAcoustics]

Facts even the intro riff has that haunting sound too it!

[@aw3177]

The Evil That Men Do is such an underrated song

[@gabssanti1025]

Righttt i Love that song

[@maxbeale8186]

Definitely one of my favourites

[@ggab7969]

That’s not underrated at all

[@loveydovey6926]

Underrated by who? Pop fans?

[@harryevans4994]

the whole album is underrated tbh, seventh son of a seventh son is better than most people remember

[@jimmyvonesh3188]

I never get tired of Maiden. Been listening to them since 1987.

[@TheKiwood]

I expected Hallowed By Thy Name to be in the first place. You didn't disappoint me. Well done, bro \m/

[@FactLOCO]

And i expected his Metallica Riffs to be the first recommended video on the right. Google didn't disappoint (this time) either :p

[@alexhall3516]

I was excited when the trooper was 2 because that could only mean the best thing!

[@jaylenwinebarger5298]

Nicko I so agree

[@marplayek3613]

Yeah, this have the best riff

[@MrMaciekd128]

I got gosebumps everytime i Heard beginning of hallowed by the name, bestt riff ever for me

[@rayana4250]

I always considered The Evil That Men Do a kick ass intro rather than a riff riff. Same for Aces High.

[@jdmd3247]

Its is a riff because the riff repeats itself like 4-5 times in the song

[@lisbethrosa3660]

Phantom Of The Opera

[@antoniosanchez-eg3os]

When I heard it, it was like hearing it again for the first time🙌

[@alephii]

[@markcassidy3608]

Andrew lloyd Webber with michael ball?

[@merlordsmily9743]

the number of the beast is best

[@ChristianJofre]

Lisbeth Rosa beutiful song

[@rhysgoodman7628]

Empire of the Clouds has got to be their most underrated song. About 10:35 in is an incredible guitar riff.

[@forformgamer]

Hallowed be thy name is the best metal song ever in my opinion. So musical, but so fierce as well!

[@alisonsilva2440]

Nexvox YT no

[@forformgamer]

Thanks for coming with great arguments as to why you think it isn't. I value your well thought out input.

[@vedicmetalhead1029]

Nexvox YT savage mate...he might be a poptallica fan

[@masterzoyt1734]

Nexvox YT agreed.

[@Metalton95]

I mean ‘so musical’ isn’t much of an argument either, when describing.. music :P

[@joen3992]

1:20 2 Minutes to Midnight does it for me every time. And you Sir, do it the right way. Thank YOU!

[@FifteenCharms]

Wow underrated video. I love that you went through the effort of replicating both guitars in the original tone with the style of guitar they use. Dave Murray being a Stratocaster and Adrian Smith being a Les Paul

[@lilliamssolis7535]

Soy fanática de Maiden desde hace ya 30 años y sólo puedo decir... TE PASASTE!!! gracias por respetar cada nota y tiempo, fue un agrado. Up the irons!! 🤘🖤

[@stpftw1]

Iron Maiden best band in the world.

[@THEshaggyrogers]

stpftw1 agreed lord shaggy’s favirote band! Memes never die

[@bardolomaios2g301]

They are great But have you listened to The Devil and the Almighty Blues ?

[@Sam-jc3wu]

Sabbath holds that title

[@ChristianJofre]

stpftw1 yes

[@christianpaperopulossilves4083]

Van Halen ( David Lee Roth) too

[@Iwasbornin74]

I know that we mostly think of the classic period of Iron Maiden when we think of them, but Brave New World, Dance of Death and A Matter of Life and Death have some riffs that are equal to or even better than classic era Maiden. Brighter Than a Thousand Suns is actually my favourite riff of theirs. There wouldn’t be many bands who, 14 albums into their career can write something as great as that song is.

[@blitzz5697]

But isn't Dance of Death like impossible to play😅

[@oscaremeza2565]

There will never be a top ten of Maiden there all excellent

[@Johnhenryguitarlessons]

Nice job and great audio! Awesome guitar sounds! Expertly executed.

[@jonasoestrategista]

The Hallowed Be Thy Name riff was MAJESTIC !!!!

[@SaiyaraLBS]

Ikrrrr

[@baobab3257]

Complimenti, da come li suoni tu sembra che siano tutti riffs facilissimi! Mi dico sempre che fino ad ora ho ascoltato fin troppo poco degli Iron Maiden e questo video rende molto l’idea di quanto bravi siano e quanto siano forti i loro pezzi. Devo assolutamente recuperare! Bravo!

[@utkarshdubey4529]

I just can't stand the fact how everybody overlooks Dance Of Death's main riff. It's the best Maiden riff in my opinion

[@vpasse09]

Musical Geek i don't thinks it's that people over look them. It's just that maiden have so many 10/10 riffs.

[@Mabufu381]

Reincarnation of Benjamin Breeg has an amazing riff too and always gets forgotten.That lamentful lone guitar at the start, so good

[@erkiperki7311]

You also gotta love No More Lies from that album

[@lightenupfrancis5455]

He said to tell you " I only know three chords and I'm trying to learn more, so don't be a dick!" He does pretty good with the three chords that he knows, so give him a break he will get better! He said "if you don't like that, well kiss his hairy ass!"

[@romcomagula9292]

Finally someone who realized that Iron Maiden did NOT broke up in 1992.

[@alessiotrimarchi2543]

Bravissimo Danilo! “The evil that man do” sempre da brividi... 🤦🏻‍♂️👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@chewysuarez8483]

All of their riffs are memorable and amazing

[@daskrieger4918]

This guy….. THIS GUY. Come on folk, this guy is amazing, right?! I am in awe. I wanted to know the song behind a riff I couldn’t get out of my head and he had it in his top 10, and oh, he played the riff flawlessly. Come on people.

[@downshifter2730]

Best maiden riffs=every riff by Adrian Smith.

[@loganstahlecker]

downshifter 27 SO TRUE!

[@BodaciousWickerman]

downshifter 27 Haha! Very true. The best Maiden guitarist!

[@downshifter2730]

BodaciousWickerman by far! 1. Adrian 2. Dave.... Janick :P

[@BodaciousWickerman]

downshifter 27 ^^^ This is 100% correct!

[@Vaxilion]

BodaciousWickerman I would say Adrian and Dave are both #1. Whenever i learn maiden songs i always learn Dave's riff parts and Adrians solos. (If they both solo in the song, if not i just try to learn the solo no matter who plays it.)

[@brianman4351]

So many people have the wrong impression of Iron Maiden. They are the most incredible melodic band. Don't judge them until you listen to the music. The songs hit you right away!

I have played professionally for over 40 years and you do know songs I played on. That I don't reveal myself is to continue to make valid comments about musicians and music and not have people compare my various albums to others. I will say that the guitarist on this video is "Better than average", so I take back my original comment.
