    And The Trooper!

    Out of curiosity, why don’t you like either of these bands?

    I’ve always liked Iron Maiden. Good songs with great lyrics. Not a big fan of Slayer tho.

      I dunno, Iron Maiden sounded cliche to me listening to later metal bands from the era. Pantera is what got me into the genre.

        Were they cliché or did they create the cliché, very different things.

        I totally get it. Relative to Pantera and other 90s metal they can sound antiquated for sure.

        Sonically speaking Iron Maiden always intrigued me.
