Iron Maiden English Heavy Metal Band: 5 Stars Worthy Songs

Iron Maiden is an English Heavy metal Band. For those that do not know, the Iron Maiden was a pretty popular medieval torturing device. As for the band, it was founded in 1975 by Bassist Steve Harris. He is also the leading singer and song writer. The band reached commercial success during the 80s. They have been producing metal records since then. They are still active, even today. They are scheduled to go on tour in the US from September 3rd through the 13th.  They will be playing with Megadeth. I think that is enough info on this band. It is pretty clear that these old timers are still pretty popular.




In any case, the first song worth rating is "Dance of Death". "Dance of Death" was the first song by Iron Maiden I ever heard. This song tells an odd tale. The lyrics are pretty self explanatory. One day, Steve Harris was walking in the Everglades. Out of the blue, he was kidnapped by an undead being. From then on, he went to dance with the dead. See! Its a pretty simple song. The guitar too is pretty normal around the edges. Overall, I found this song to be ridiculously long. Then again, I like my songs to be between 3 and 4 minutes. Regardless, this Iron Maiden song is 5 stars worthy.

The next song worth rating is "Fear of the Dark". Can you guess what this song is about? Joking aside, this is a pretty cool song. The guitar is quite epic. My favorite lines are: Have you run your fingers down the wall/ And have you felt your neck skin crawl/ When you're searching for the light ? Truly, these lines summarize what this song is about. In any case, Iron Maiden's Fear of the Dark is 5 stars worthy.

The next song that I like is the "Reincarnation of Benjamin Breeg". From what I heard, Benjamin Breeg was an artist that was plagued by nightmares. He used to draw his dreams. Before his death he destroyed his artwork. He did not anyone to see into the window of his soul. This song is about that obscured artist. It describes all his visions of hell. The intro of this song was pretty cool. Overall, it was a 5 stars worthy song.

The next song worth mentioning is "Flight of Icarus". The songs describes how Icarus tried to fly using the wings made by his father. However, his winds burned in the sky. The song is pretty self explanatory. The chorus "On your wings like an eagle / Fly and touch the sun" was also pretty cool. Truly, the "Flight of Icarus" is 5 stars worthy Iron Maiden Song.

I think it is time to wrap things up. The last song worth mentioning is "Still Life". It is my favorite Iron Maiden song. The first thing that I like its unique sound of this song. There is a lot tension in each verse. The choruses are a bit odd around the edges. This song is about the occult. The speaker and another person are looking into a pool of water. In there, they see spirits. Overall, the song is pretty cool. Truly, Still Life is a 5 stars worthy song. I hope that you liked these featured songs.
