A must see is the 1982 live version of Hallowed Be Thy Name. It is amazing.
this
As a Judas Priest fiend, agreed
"Aces High"
Agree
Every heavy metal band got inspiration from these guys.
One of the great vocalist around no help from technology just the man's talent
Dude don't let the comments bug you. We totally believe you like this stuff. One of the things that happens to people that dip their feet into metal is they're shocked that they're actually becoming a fan. All their life they thought that metal was just noisy and then they started to listen. You'll definitely find as you go along that you'll come across some songs you don't like, and don't be afraid to say it, but you also don't have to worry about loving it cuz that's what we're here to see.
Worry?!!?
Iron Maiden is best served live! I would suggest Hallowed Be Thy Name live from Hammersmith in 1982. Also, from live concert video, Flight 666 (I think), Rime of the Ancient Mariner is jaw dropping. I would also suggest Dance of the Dead from Rocking in Rio (again, I think). Also, yes Iron Maiden is still a touring band, in fact I will most likely be getting tickets to a show near me in New England for November of next year. Rock on, Man! 🤟✌
Come on man. How can you be from the UK and not have heard The Trooper? Lol, He’s carrying the Union Jack.
Different generation. It’s not like Maiden are topping the Spotify charts
@@mr_k4tzlol charts! Mostly, lifeless, boring, not dynamic, repetitive tunes!!!! Mostly
Metallica were definitely influenced by the New Wave of British Heavy Metal (that's an actual title) which Iron Maiden was a part of. Lars was especially into that, him coming from Europe. Maiden is widely considered one of the all time greats and is incredible live. Bruce's powerful vocals, Murray and Smith's dueling guitars, and Harris's galloping bass make them a true force. Other great songs to check out would be "Number of the Beast", "Hallowed Be Thy Name", and "22 Acacia Avenue". Keep enjoying your journey!!
I would disagree with your reply to his specific question. Maiden came out in 1980 and Metallica formed in 1981. So, I don't think Maiden was an influence on Metallica. But, only they know, right?
@correctlyrics Maiden actually formed in 1975, although their first full length album wasn't released until 1980. Lars was very into and knowledgeable of the N.W.O.B.H.M. so there's a good chance he knew of them before most of the rest of the world.
@@correctlyrics And although they didn't cover any of their songs on Garage Inc. like they did with bands like Diamond Head, Blitzkrieg, Budgie, and the Misfits, they did pay homage to Run to the Hills at the end of their cover of Last Caress/Green Hell.
@@correctlyricslars likes maiden and is for sure influenced by iron maiden, but Otherwise Metallica isn’t influenced by iron maiden or anyone else, i think
@@correctlyricsthey said the debut influenced them and they could still be influenced by contemporaries.
They certainly are still touring. Saw them live in Leeds a few months back. They were amazing as they always are. Wasted Years, Stranger in a Strange Land, The Number of the Beast, so many great songs
Yep I was in Leeds too, Steve fell over but contuined playing 🎸🎸🎸
Dude, we all know you are reacting truly, it can be seen on your face, the questions you ask, and just your overall reaction.
Iron Maiden and Judas Priest were the bands that pulled me into metal back when I was I was a little kid and thought Kiss was the only band I needed. You really can't go wrong with Maiden.
Stay true to yourself and ignore people who try and troll you.
What I see when I watch your videos,is a Metalhead in the making.The 2 Maiden songs you have chosen so far are good,but they where ones thats pretty short.You have to check out some of their long,epic songs and you should take live videos.When you see them perform Hallowed be thy Name or The ancient Mariner live,you will desperately get obsessed with Maiden for Life!
Looking forward to this one, a maiden classic. I have a tattoo of the trooper on my right arm 🤘🤘
I'm enjoying watching a metal head being born, and I'm not surprised. He's 23.... he's got probably a dood 10 years listening to music. The last 10 years have sucked, musically speaking. And being raised around top 40 the last 10 years, the kids these days have zero idea what good music can be. It's about time the good rock and roll, and metal, are influencing new generations. There is hope. Rock on, MollyBoy. I'm a fan
Hallowed be thy name 82.
The evil that men do
Wasted years
One of the most beautiful aspects of Iron Maiden is that many of their songs draw inspiration or are direct tellings of famous literary works or historical events. You don't just get fantastic music, but you get an artfully crafted education as well.
This song is a great example as it is like a play-by-play of a soldier in The Charge of the Light Brigade. Your channel is great, too. I really enjoy seeing real, genuine reactions and real-time feedback of these classic bangers. Cheers.
One of the very BEST to ever do it!!!
They have been going since the mid 70s and still going today!!
Dave Murray is one of my ultimate guitar heroes along with a guy called Gary Moore who began with band called Thin Lizzy.
Hallowed Be Thy Name, Evil That Men Do, Wasted Years, Can I Play With Madness are ones you should definitely check out. 🤘🤘
Thin Lizzy was also a big inspiration for Cliff Burton (RIP). love some lore
They aren't just still touring, but they are even more relevant today than ever🤘
They have released 17 great studio albums, which is about 6 more than the lesser metallica😜
The Maiden rabbit hole is greater than any other you will find🤘
Up the mighty Irons!!!🤘🤘🤘🤘
Bruce Dickinson is a beast. You better beleive he is still rocking it live on stage
This is my favorite Iron Maiden song! I'm 53 now and still love it!
The UK..the best for the rock..!!🇬🇧👑
I believe you're sincere because you do the classic thing that all budding metal heads do where all new songs you review is the greatest thing you heard!, that was just like me and millions of other metalheads growing up hearing new stuff. I'm 42 and still enjoying it full pelt, but there is a part of me very jealous of you hearing this for the first time. Same with my kids, they are eating all this up. The first time i heard one of my daughters blasting Death from her room it brought a tear of pride to my eye😆😆😆😆🤘🤘🤘🤘
if youre doing Maiden, "Rime of the Ancient Mariner" is a must!
I’ve lived in the States now from age 7 till now (41). I was born, though, in Manchester, in the North of England. I’ve been back many times to visit family and friends I’ve made over the years (I stayed for 10 months) when I was 19-20 years old. The point is that I never stayed away long enough for the States to water down the English in my blood.
I say all this because there is something about the notion of the doomed cavalry charge to stir something very unique in the Englishman’s circulatory system, isn’t there? I’m actually not an enormous fan of most Maiden tunes but this one fires me up, as does (I think) ‘Aces High’. But this one, in particular, carries with it the FEEL of those 600 men defiantly, perhaps even madly, in spite of the obviously absurd odds, riding into the jaws of Death and Hell itself.
Makes me proud to be fuckin English, man. Am I the only Briton that feels this?
Yes, Iron Maiden is still going. And Monday I will buy the ticket for their show in Brazil next year. Up the Irons!
One the greatest bands of all time. Add Hallowed Be Thy Name - ‘82 to my list of live songs to check out! They certainly are still playing and were definitely an inspiration to Metallica. I saw them 5 or 6 years ago and they still sounded amazing.
the US and the UK has had an AWESOME music relationship over the decades...it's like our guys'll do something cool and send it over and then your guys will say, "well we can do you one better" and send it back... Metal was certainly birthed in the UK and we know it!!! Zeppelin, Sabbath, Priest, Motorhead, Iron Maiden...all important and iconic!!!
100%
You forgot Deep Purple. So sad to see how little recognition they get.
good point... Ritchie Blackmore was every bit the innovator that Tony Iommi was...@@Winnetou17
The Trooper was from '83 album Piece of mind and yes they are still touring and recording!!!
No, WTF, it's not from Powerslave, it's from "Piece of Mind" from '83, the album before Powerslave.
Thanks, corrected my mistake@@Winnetou17
@@kalodner666 Glad to help, thanks for doing the edit!
Another banger! British metal bands dominate. The bass player Steve Harris was nominated best metal bass player of all time. He inspired me to play bass and i joined a metal band in my 20's.
Seen them 17x and I try to see them whenever they come around where I live. Well worth it. Stellar show and great music always.
Love the galloping bass line by Steve Harris. Fits so well with the subject matter of the lyrics. Same with Run to the Hills.
England has some of the best metal bands, essentially Heavy Metal was born in the midlands of Birmingham, England with Black Sabbath and Judas Priest, and Iron Maiden are still hard at it, touring in 2024, well worth checking out even in their advanced years they certainly still got it, latest album Senjutsu is damn good. ~ Up The Irons!
Run to the hills live, Argentina I think. The crowd is singing so loud they are drowning out the band...goosebumps!
Saw them in October here in Canada! They rocked the house down! Drummer is the same, and he’s 71 years young!
My favorite Iron maiden. Sign of the cross live from the rock in Rio concert
Yes Iron is still touring! Thank goodness.
I'm 61, I saw them live in Brisbane, Australia 🇦🇺 over 40 years ago, Awesome show.
The guitar is the chorus. I like that!
"Wasted Years, aces high, Somewhere in Time" yes maidens stoll around, and now have all three of their best guitarists in the band.
You should hear that riff now there is 3 guitarists🤯🤯🤯
IRON MAIDEN is still touring and coming out with new material. UP THE IRONS 🤘🤘
Yes they are still going , i saw them 9 time and going to see them in 2024
Iron maiden will be celebrating the anniversary of the band on December 25. Well done and I believe they are still touring coming up on 50 years of Devil Music as my mother used to scream and me and my brothers
Most are in early 70's still touring now his voices not aged 1 bit
The Toronto version of Hallowed be Thy Name is unreal, so is the live Rime of the Ancient Mariner as well. Thanks for the vid.
You need to see the Talisman, Damce of Death, and Rime of the ancient mariner… all live!! Amazing!!
They are still touring I'm going to see them next year in Denver co
I have tix for them at Tacoma Dome November 24
Maiden are very much still going, still packing out Arenas and stadiums around the world 🤘
Fantastic reaction, thanks👍
With many Iron Maiden songs, you get an accurate history lesson. The Trooper tells the account of a British soldier in the Battle of Balaklava during the Crimean War. Lord Cardigan led the British cavalry against Russian forces during this battle on 25 October 1854. Lord Raglan had intended to send the Light Brigade to prevent the Russians from removing captured guns from overrun Turkish positions. However, there was miscommunication in the chain of command and the Light Brigade was instead sent on a suicide mission charging straight at heavy Russian artillery which cost the lives of around 300 British soldiers. Alfred Lord Tennyson wrote a poem to commemorate this disaster and he called it "The Charge of the Light Brigade".
The bronze that the recaptured guns were made from was used to make the Victoria Cross, a military medal of the very highest order that was awarded "for valour" and designed by Queen Victoria herself. Very few of these have ever been awarded, even to this day.
Other great Iron Maiden history lessons you could check out.... Run to the Hills, Alexander the Great, Paschendale and Empire of the Clouds.
I've been a Maiden fan since hearing their debut album in 1980 on cassette when I was 10 years old. I've seen them live every time they've played in London, their home ground and mine, and they never disappoint. Up the Irons!!!
Have enjoyed your metal reactions. It takes me back Monahan I first found and dove into Heavy Metal when I was, at that time, a hardcore hip hop head and breakdancer. Seeing your expression at key moments, off changes, breakdowns, is spot on. Keep on with the channel, and dive into metal!
They most definitely are still touring, I saw them in June past, also saw them in the 80's when i growing up, they are still as awesome today as back then, go and see them live if you ever get a chance, you'll have a fantastic night. Up the Irons 🇬🇧
A little fun fact about iron maiden is iron maiden are still touring and nring albums about there the longest runny heavy metal band in England iv seen them live so meny times like download festival! Second fun fact they have a distinct galup to all there songs!
Big up brother, loving the content. Used to be a rap fan myself when I was younger and found metal music around the same age as yourself. Keep the reactions coming! If you revisit TOOL any time soon, you absolutely have to check out the live video of the song "Sober" from Reading 1993, absolutely mindblowing.
Also, if you're looking to mix it up a bit, check out a song called "Pisces" by JINJER, always a banger to see people's reactions to. Much love
Bro, they are still one of the biggest metal bands touring to this day.
Bro you’ve got to react to HALLOWED BE THY NAME LIVE 1982 !!
Maiden is still touring with dates already set for 2024 - \m/UP THE IRONS\m/
On this battlefield noone wins...that's my favorite line of the song
Great review as always, killing it. You should check out Melvins-Revolve…right in that wheelhouse for you.
Yes _Iron Maiden_ influenced a lotta bands that came after them. Lars of _Metallica_ has even said so multiple times in public, not just the music but the way they present and market themselves. Although _Judas Priest_ came first with the twin guitar harmonies, but _Iron Maiden_ made it their own... 🤘
love priest, but fair comment
Maiden were going for a Wishbone Ash vibe by all accounts... just heavier:)
Dave Murray is still one of my favorite guitarists (I'm 54), and he's the one taking the 2nd solo (Longer hair, striped shirt).
Maiden is still going strong & all 5 members here are still in the band (Along with a third guitarist).
Even after all my years as a fan, I know nothing about guitar. But, Dave is a pleasure to listen to and to watch. He’s so smooth.
I got to see them in 85 in Nashville .
Aces High official video with the speech at the start is essential.
Epic! And yes Maiden were a huge influence on Metallica along with most of the NWOBHM aka “New Wave Of British Heavy Metal” I’d be interested to see what you think of the original singer of Iron Maiden “Paul Di’Anno” checkout tracks “Phantom of the Opera” “Running Free” or “Murders in the Rue Morgue” all classics from the early eighties!
Iconic!
In Japan there is a bassist named Miho, she wanted to start a band band thar would play original song, but done in the Iron Maiden style.
Check out this song
Lovebites Scream for Me live Daughters of the Dawn.
Iron maiden most certainly are still going thier last album called senjutsu was released in septenmber 2021 and they are currently on tour
Don't listen to people being negative bro just do your own thing 99% of us are behind you so keep enjoying the Metal journey my man.
Yeah, Maiden has some heavy lyrics. Not many metal bands make songs about classic poetry. This was about the poem “The Charge of the Light Brigade”. I yawned through it in school and this song made me go back and read it. Funny, I’m 57 been listening to them before this singer joined the band and I never really noticed that quite a few Iron Maiden songs don’t really have a chorus.
And yes iron maiden is on tour again in 2024.
I am happy, cause discover heavy music in the 80's when i was a teenager. And get me infected to this day.
The guitars and drums mimic the charge of the light brigade which the song is about. Who would think someone would make a song about the Crimean War that could be as epic as this.
Love the guitars. But with Maiden, respect the bass and the bassist! Steve Harris’ galloping bass is the heart of the band! Maiden is one of the greatest metal bands ever!
The first show I ever saw
Was iron maiden and quiet riot
Add madison square garden
The nineteen eighty three
I was fourteen years old
And i've seen maiden numerous times since
One of the best bands to see live
Perfect take at the end!!! Keep grinding! ✌🏼
This song is on the album - PIECE OF MIND. This is one of those rare albums where every song is good.

You cover classic Maiden tunes, I subscribed. And liked. Simple as. Thank you, sir!
Lol The "Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Oh" part IS the chorus (it counts) 😅. Favorite part of the video is when Adrian's lead comes in and they flash to the guy on the ground dieing, trying not to let the flag hit the ground, and the other horseman snatches it up and carries it forward. Fucking epic, just like Maiden!
1. Iron Maiden - Hallowed Be Thy Name live Hammersmith 1982. 2. Iron Maiden - Fear Of the Dark live Rock in Rio 2001. 3. Pantera - Cemetery Gates :)
The amazing thing about Iron Maiden besides the amazing music and lyrics is alot of their songs will give you a actual history lesson...
Wanna have your mind blown, Rime of The Ancient Mariner Iron Maiden. Even if not for a reaction, listen to it for yourself
Iron maiden is still going. Next year I am hoping to see them in Denver.
No questions about your sincerity, bro, and, yes, England on the whole has produced some of the best bands in rock! We Americans have some in that company too: Kansas, Journey, Styx, Metallica, and more. Love your honesty!
Well said!
Hallowed Be Thy Name, Infinite Dreams, 2 Minutes to Midnight, Where Eagles Dare, Wasted Years, Fear of the Dark (live) should be your next Iron Maiden reactions. They will serve your channel very well.. Personally, I would also love to see Alexander the Great, Ghost of the Navigator and the title track, No Prayer For the Dying.
🔥🔥🔥MEGADETH- HOLY WARS - THE PUNISHMENT DUE 🔥🔥🔥
Hallowed Be Thy Name .In my Opinion the best Iron Maiden Song and the best Version is the 1982 Live Version from Hammersmith! 😛😛
Iron Maiden even have their own ale named after this song.... The Trooper, with EDDIE on the bottle of course
Their music is vibrant, dynamic, energetic, very melodic, moderate heavy, strongly emotional (different kinds of emotions), dramatic and very beautiful at the same time at least mostly!
I have tix for Maiden at Tacoma Dome November 24. They're still rocking. Fun fact,...the singer Bruce Dickenson is a 4 stripe pilot and he flies the band to each show. Qualified to fly 747. The plane is painted with Iron Maiden down the side.
Iron Maiden are LEGENDS!! Bruce Dickinson the lead singer is a classically trained opera singer rockin your face off!
Americans 100% were into Iron Maiden! On every radio rock station in every single state/City/Jurisdiction/County/Village & town of America!!🔘🔴💥
Up the Maidens. 🤘🤘. They are definitely still touring. I have tix to Both their Melbourne concerts here in Australia next September. One of them is on my bday so I will making the most of it. MFL. 🤘🤘🥃🥃
You MUST do Hallowed Be Thy Name (Live at Rock in Rio 2001), please!!! 🙏🙏🙏
some of the most iconic artists in the history of music has come from Britain. Maiden, priest, sabbath and ozzy, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin , the Beatles and Rolling Stones. Fyu- maiden and priest are still going and making new music!!! Bruce (maiden) and rob (judas priest) are two of the greatest vocalists and front men ever to this day.
Remember what I said, they are already set in the U.S. for the 2024 tour, already got my tixx here in NY check to see where they will be by you... you wont be disappointed, Up the Irons \m/
Metallica was MOST definitely influenced by Iron Maiden & Motorhead. They've even said as much in several interviews. Iron Maiden are still touring. I saw them in 2022, here in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. They still got IT! Song suggestion: "Wasted Years" one of my all time Maiden favorites. Keep up the GREAT work and enjoy the Maiden rabbit hole. 🤘🤘🤘
Can't stand Bruce's voice now but in the 80s its one of the greatest voices of any genre ever!
3:15 -- Iron Maiden were really good with the "whoas" on certain songs. Check out "Heaven Can Wait."
Great content ...I never miss a show man. Good job
Americans 100% were into Iron Maiden! On every radio rock station in every single state/City/Jurisdiction/County/Village & town of America!!🔘🔴💥
You are missing out tho if don't watch Iron Maiden live..even their newer lives of recent!🔴
Song is based on a poem based on the Crimean war.
Edit: Iron maiden do lots of History, literature and some mythology in their songs.
Fear of the dark, or rhyme of the ancient mariner maiden classics and metal staples in their own right 🤘😝🤘
The Trooper was the first song i ever heard from Iron Maiden and it’s what got me hooked to them it’s fire, BUT! you haven’t listened to Iron Maiden yet if you haven’t listened to Hallowed be Thy Name and Fear of the Dark. All Iron Maiden songs are fire but those two songs are essentials
a german metalband.. on the best metalfestival in the world (germany Wacken!) with the best fan-singers in the world ... So watch
Blind Guardian - The Bard's Song & Valhalla - Live at Wacken Open Air 2016
have fun
Welcome to the world of Iron Maiden. Better late than never. They defo still together and play live lots. We saw them twice in the last 18months. Bruce also does side solo stuff.
