(Rated this album with 4 out of 10) Reviewed by

Killers is a classic in metal releases, and proved very influental to later metal-releases but it comes nowhere near what Iron Maiden was to release later. The songs does not have the power or the quality of later releases, and Paul DiAnno simply does not come anywhere near Bruce Dickinson as a singer. The album meant alot to metal and thus is worth listning to, but it does not seem to hold any emediate qualities that are usualy atributed to Iron Maiden. The production is pretty bad, but it was too on Number of the Beast, so that is not what is to blame. I think that Iron Maiden simply matured...and got a worthy lead singer for their next album.
