I'm a huge fan of Iron Maiden, and I bought this album early on when I first started getting into them and it turned me off for a while. It's lacking something, but I can't quite pin it (cough!- Bruce's voice- cough Adrian Smith- Cough! Cough!- Good songwriting- Cough!).

1. Be Quick or Be Dead (10/10) A great opener like classics "Invaders" and "Aces High"
2. From Here to Eternity (8/10) Hell ain't a bad place. But this album is.
3. Afraid to Shoot Strangers (5/10) I cringe.
4. Fear Is the Key (4/10) I cringe some more.
5. Childhood's End (5/10
6. Wasting Love (5/10)
7. Fugitive (5/10)
8. Chains of Misery (4/10)
9. Apparition (7/10)
10. Judas Be My Guide (4/10)
11. Weekend Warrior (2/10 Make it stop
12. Fear of the Dark (9/10) The best Iron Maiden song ever!!! Bar-none it's a classic! On a terrible album. But this version is terrible compared to any time they played it live. There is something wrong with Bruce's voice.
