What a great album by one of metals most skilled and influential bands. To many this album is still
considered part of the golden era of Iron Maiden, and it deserves to be considered as such. The
opening track gets you hooked right from the get go. Though the story is not as clear as other
albums, it still works. What I really enjoy is the musicianship, top notch throughout the entire
album, Steve Harris and Nicko McBrian really standout on this album. In my mind there is no weak
track and this album is almost just as good as the number of the beast, piece of mind and power
slave. I consider it to be more enjoyable than somewhere in time, though that is a good album and a review for another time. What makes Seventh Son work so well, is that fact that Iron Maiden steps
into progressive territory but remains true to what we have enjoyed about them all along, a definite
four star album because it is so close to perfection and definitely worth adding to ones collection,
especially if you're a maiden fan, after all the Blaze Bailey stuff that follows is garbage.
