This is 1982. Iron Maiden is a rabbithole of a discography to get into- enjoy!

[@eddie-qz5fv]

It is december 1981.

I'm so glad I was right. I'm only 25 but I was right. 1982 was run to the hills and Powerslave was 86 I think? Correct me if I'm wrong.

Dude. You’re British. You haven’t heard Iron Maiden?! They’re a goddamn national treasure. lol. Giving you a hard time. Glad you got here. Enjoy the rabbit hole.

[@shmick6079]

Great track. Iron Maiden was probably the most significant metal band in joining the dots between Sabbath and Judas Priest in the 70s, and Metallica etc in the 80s.

[@Coyotecyb]

yup yup

Up the Irons 🤘

[@chueysmama2622]

Preach it!

[@miaw6392]

Try Queensryche and Mother Love Bone. Soundgarden. I fortunately or not grew up in Seattle as a metalhead. The grunge craze was rampant. I think I just didn't like going to wannabe clubs. I actually preferred to go to new wave clubs. Although I engaged in a mosh pit with Suicidal Tendencies.

[@nev6662]

One of the best metal bands ever,Bruce is a great singer,so many great songs,hallowed be thy name,the trooper,rime of the ancient mariner,they are still touring today,true legends.

[@liammerrick6399]

This band is my life force. There's a hundred maiden songs that could blow your mind. Thier first 7 albums are masterpieces.

[@SailorJohnPresents]

Iron Maiden is an entire rabbit hole as well. They are one of the greatest ever! “Number of the Beast”, “Aces High”, “The Trooper”, “Hallowed Be Thy Name” just to start the journey. You will become a fan. There is no way you can’t.

[@tbone2071]

Love that u threw Aces High in there! Not enough people talk about that song.

[@SailorJohnPresents]

@@tbone2071 Love that song. It’s the best way to start off their live shows. I took this video live in Vegas! kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z2TTmKGCftetf80si=-X9uz7UhsBVZoxAr

Hallowed be thy Name!!! Nothing more to say...!

……Up The Irons ⚒ Iron Maiden was formed in 1975 from Leyton, East London…. Steve Harris (bassist) founder & primary song writer.

[@nickf2000ss]

about time you get to Maiden. I can give a laundry list of song to react to, Hallowed Be Thy name, The Trooper, Rime of the Ancient Mainer, Number of the Beast, The Prisoner, Aces High, etc............

[@brianl8481]

For a newer song, Empire of the Clouds.

[@brettkenschaft4239]

This is from their 3rd album, The Number of the Beast, which was the first one with Bruce Dickenson on vocals. He's widely considered one of the best rock vocalists and bass player Steve Harris is definitely considered one of the best bassists. I personally consider this album one of the greatest in hard rock/heavy metal history. Other great songs from this are "22 Acacia Avenue", "The Number of the Beast", and "Hallowed Be Thy Name".

[@cadleo]

Perfect song to start iron Maiden with

[@bradhutchinson3275]

1982. You want to hear what Bruce, singer, n the duel guitars can do? React to 'Hallowed Be Thy Name' live. Killer trac. Thanks

1982 ^^ . Good start. May be the most popular one. You definitely should watch life videos of Iron Maiden. They have tons of great songs. What a rabbit hole^^. Next maybe "Hallowed Be Thy Name"

[@thekeenmoron1900]

Seen Maiden do this live in the 70's with my pals and 40 years later I saw them with my two boys. Seen them loads inbetween too but the 1978 and 2019 concerts were special.

[@neillenet291]

You saw them do this song in the 70's before it came out in 1982?

[@anthalas1]

So you saw them before the firts album must have been a small crowd of people , nice

[@thekeenmoron1900]

Seen them loads of times just got my dates mixed up. I didn't Google it because I didn't think I needed too. Take it easy people just a senior moment. The fact remains that I saw Maiden do this track and 40 years 'or so' later I saw them with my boys. Very emotional experience for me. Why didn't any of you pick up on that part. No, because that's not what people do nowadays is it. Peace all.

[@thekeenmoron1900]

​@@anthalas1 Read my reply but, you do know bands gig before albums too. It was May 1980 I first saw them, 5 months past the 70's. I wasn't that far out. I know that's still before this track but point remains.

one of the ALL TIME GOAT UK metal bands...they're freeking awesome. Highly educated dudes...all their big song deal with historical events and things like that... "The Trooper" "Number of the Beast" "2 Minutes to Midnight"...you were damn close '82...these guys really set the standard back in the day!!! FUN!!! Great react!

[@musickf]

I've been a Metalhead since '98. This genre of music is life saving, much like Punk. The reason being, for me at least, is it gives me a community. A family of my choosing. Lots of young adults have issues with society, and even their family life can be hard on them. This music gives them an outlet for all that pent up rage, anger, frustration and feelings of loneliness. Lynyrd Skynyrd is Southern Rock, but they're revered by Metalheads, that's why it has so many views. Seeing people first discovering this music brings us so much joy. People from outside our scene are paying attention to, and enjoying, the music of our lives. It's one of the best feelings in the world. When I go to a show, I don't see a bunch of scary individuals. I see brothers and sisters in metal, all there for the same reason: to enjoy the music, camaraderie, meet new/say hi friends and get that sense of family. So, that being said, welcome to the Metal community. It's a great place, even if some of us look and act scary at times. In reality, you'll won't find a bigger bunch of softies. Sure, we like screamy music, but we're also very into helping others and dealing with issues that affect us all, like mental health. There's a lot of that in the scene as well. Never be afraid to cry! And, if you need a hug, that huge burley guy in the corner gives the best bear hugs around.

[@davediesel90]

Very very true

[@crichards037]

A fun Iron Maiden video to watch is their live appearance on German tv "playing" Wasted Years. I put "playing" in quotes because the station insisted they lip synced to their studio version, so they all just kinda fucked around on stage, switching instruments and all taking turns "singing"...it's gloriously hilarious. 😂😂😂 I actually met everyone in Iron Maiden around 2003 - my dad sold guitars to the whole band so we got backstage passes when I was like 13. They're all so pleasant and genuine...a memory I will never forget!

[@Sigma1_969]

Where to begin... Most importantly, Steve Harris is the Bassist and founding member... and also the primary writer. The band were formed in 1975, London, England. They have remained intact since 1981 When Bruce Dickinson replaced Paul Di'anno as lead singer, joining Harris, and Clive Burr on drums and also Adrian Smith and Dave Murray on Guitar, there where a few changes beforehand but this is the lineup that was the beginning of what would become arguably the greatest metal band of all time. Nicko McBrain replaced Clive Burr on drums in 1982, and Janick Gers joining the band in 1990 after Adrian Smith left for a bit due to indifference.. also Janick being in Bruce's solo band the year before. Enjoy your journey with the guys... definitely in my top 3 bands of all time. The Rime of the Ancient Mariner is a song you need to hear.

[@June_The_Leper]

Maiden was my first ever concert, i saw them in june this year, 3rd favorite band of all time 🤘

Capt. Bruce Dickenson is an incredible singer as well as the pilot on the bands jumbo jet! Yes, he's a commercial pilot, professional fencer and something else that one would never think of when you mention a metal singer. He's a fucking legend! Axil can't even tie Bruce's shoes, bro. Please don't even mention the 2 of them in the same video. Thanks - I owe you one!😁 Hallowed Be Thy Name, The Trooper, Aces High, Powerslave, Die With Your Boots On and 2 Minutes To Midnight should keep ya busy. Welcome to Iron Maidens world. Don't forget to "Iron Up" 🤘🤘

I know I said on one of your Metallica reactions that you're always better off listening to the studio version of a song before checking out the live version, but you can ignore that advice when it comes to Iron Maiden since they're actually better live than they are in the studio. Seriously, they're one of the greatest live bands of all time and Bruce Dickinson's vocals need to be heard live.

[@BrianJohnson-nj9gi]

This should have been your first introduction to Iron Maiden. So if you really want to hear Iron Maiden singer Bruce Dickinson's true opera like voice watch this video of 'Hallowed Be Thy Name' Live from Hammersmith 1982. Bruce can hold a note longer than anyone else, and in my opinion is why every other rock singer wishes that they could sing like Bruce in his prime. The song is about a man getting ready to be hanged at the gallows and is looking back on his life. *Must Watch* kzbin.info/www/bejne/baezY5t8e7tobac&feature=share

[@Electricgypsy309]

Nice one! Iron Maiden, Loverboy, Foreigner, & Scorpions, were my very first concert ever, "Day On The Green" 1982. Thank you for reacting to them. I was around 15 yrs old and, there were several nicknames for "Bruce Dickinson" I knew him as "The Siren" I think you will like "Wasted Years" The Riff is "Iconic" Though like "Metallica" their tunes are fabulous. 🎄

Iron Maiden is the GREATEST(live;)BAND in the world now and forever 🤘 If you dont believe me check out "Hallowed be thy name " live in Hammersmith 1982, and "Dance of Death" live, and "The Clansman" live, and "Sign of the Cross" live, and "When The Wild Wind Blows" also live, which is like a Shakespearean tragedy play😉 Seriously, off of Maidens 17 studio albums there are atleast 5 great songs off of each and everyone of them and is rabbit hole you will never forget, but you will kick yourself, because you didn't check them out before🤘 There are Rock/Metal bands us fans look up to, then there is Iron Maiden who other bands look up to👏 Up the mighty Irons!!!🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@thomaslemke4437]

Some Background information: "the Number of the Beast" album was the first album featuring Bruce Dickinson as the singer. Before that he was the singer for Samson. The album is probably the most important recording for the "New Wave of British Heavy Metal". It had at least four legendary Songs: Run to the hills, the number of the beast, Hallowed be thy name, 22 Acacia Avenue. Some people say, this was Iron Maidens early peak and it went downhill from there. I disagree, but "The number of the beast" is certainly one of the best Rock Albums ever.

[@nem447]

nothing like a bit of British Metal 🤘

[@pullyourluck]

very good close guess on the year. and these are from your part of England. Definitely one of the top British bands. that started the NWOBHM, New wave of british heavy metal. You absolutely have to check out the Powerslave album. Arguably a top 3 record in the Iron Maiden World. They are still touring and the lead singer, Bruce Dickinson, is the acutal pilot of the gigantica aircraft they use to get from shows in the US and beyond
