Would you like to see the foundations for modern metal? Are you sick of the same "NuMetal" sound from band after band? Have you have ever wanted to give Iron Maiden a spin on your CD player but didn't want your friends to mock your "80s hair metal crap"? I've got news for you, my friend - your mocking friends can go @&*$ themselves. I'm in my mid 20s and have just recently discovered the joys of Maiden and I will never look back (or forward, I guess) This Album contains a must have best-of record of the first 5 Iron Maiden Albums which, live, are presented sometimes better than the original album cuts (especially the songs from the first 2 albums which although really good to begin with while Paul Di'Anno was the singer absolutely shine with Bruce "Air Raid Siren" Dickenson at the helm) If you love hard music and don't care what others think of your musical tastes - buy this - and then buy it again - and then recommend it to friends Musical trends are for losers - buy this, then buy "Madonna GHV2" or "The Immaculate Collection" like I did. Depeche Mode - Metallica - Crystal Method - Johnny Cash - AC/DC Rock Hard, Baby!!
