Couldn't agree more... well, yes I could, Metallica actually released three great albums (Kill 'em All was good, but not great).

The Black Album and Load are quite good, they're just much more mainstream and (Load/ReLoad in particular) have obvious Blues/Rock influences. I really like both of them and would prefer them over most 90s Maiden albums any time.
Of course St. Anger is a completely different story ... |

The Black album is good, I just think Metallica began to lose their touch there. Load I like only the first six songs (my favorite being King Nothing) and Reload didn't do much for me.
St.Anger, man what a piece of crap ! No solos ? One of the worst drum sounds ever ? Hetfield 's voice ? No proper bass player ? The originators becoming the emulators ? They better come back with something good, but I highly doubt it. Will give them a chance though.

No contest for me....at least when it comes to AC/DC against the other two.... there's no comparison: ac/dc, a three chord band, a "same album over and over again" band, I don't believe I used to own 7 of their records.... Nowhere near Metallica or Maiden... that being said, Metallica has shinier moments than Maiden for me (Master of Puppets, And Justice For All), but as an overall career analysis, I'd go with Maiden. I like, in average, their music much better than most of Ulrich's and Hetfield's. Specially if we have the utter atrocity in mind, the worst album by a band that use to be decent, St. Anger.

1. Iron Maiden 2. AC/DC
3. Metallica
First two are great, but Metallica......
I think I've made my feelings known before.

AC/DC and Metallica are pretty close for me, but I went with AC/DC.
BTW AC/DC had at least four classic albums: High Voltage, Highway to Hell, Back in Black, The Razor's Edge. For Those About to Rock is up there too. Back in Black was recently voted as the most influential single album among hard rock and metal musicians.
My favorite AC/DC song? If You Want Blood, You Got It.

I chose Metallica because Master of Puppets is amazing.
I can only stand Bon Scott-era Ac/Dc minus the awful slow songs like The Jack.
I do not like Iron Maiden except the song Fear of the Dark. I've tried and tried, but I just don't see the big appeal with the band.

Goes to Maiden. I have always liked them, especially Bruce and Dave. Metallica is a foursome (or threesome maybe) of commercial suckers imho. And AC/DC is great in some way, too.

Iron Maiden is my favorite band!
I like Metalica and ACDC for two totally different reasons, but I do prefer thrash over hard rock. Also Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets and And Justice for All were just...! We have three bands that became genres in them selfs ( like Pink Floyd or King Crimson - bands that defined them selfs out of the dreaded "genre music" category into a original musical art form).

Heres the totem pole for me: Iron Maiden
Metallica AC/DC
...Iron Maiden sits on top, Metallica and AC/DC can fight it out on the bottom. Metallica will probably use their hard core attitude assaults, and AC/DC will use its politically correct arguements about bi-sexuality.

oh, come on, you can't honestly mean that about the band that released Kill 'Em All, Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets and ...And Justice for All?! But for the later albums, I understand - and to some extent, agree with - your opinion. |
