We have a winner!
1. Powerslave (1984) 25% votes
I am happy with that. My 2nd favourite (or even tied 1st) Maiden record. And it is no doubt an all-time great.
But we keep going.
What is the next best Iron Maiden album?! Rami Airola will be happy to find Virtual XI among the choices this time around.

Since I think SiT is the best am I voting for what I think is second best behind that?

Piece of Mind (It was close to being first but Killers kicks so much ass!)
Okay I clearly didn't understand the game! Killers
If this ends a tie (as it seems to be, I voted POM but want Killers)

Piece Of Mind is #1 on my list so I went ahead and picked my second favorite, Killers. Odd, while I like Powerslave it isn't even in my top 5 or 6.

No. You vote what you think is the best remaining album (Somewhere in Time?).
Powerslave was #1. You can't vote for it anymore, I removed it. Winner of this vote will be #2.
I reckon you vote Somehere in Time until it's off the board.

Not going to vote that this time either, but as soon as Seventh Son of a Seventh Son has been picked and gone from the list it's Virtual XI time!

I voted Killers in the last thread and IM in this.
Though Powerslave is my favorite Dickinson album. It was also the first IM album I ever got which sometimes is the reason for that kinda thing. Bought it on tape for a quarter at a yardsale in 6th grade.

Killers is still on the board.
Looks like it's between Killers and Number of the Beast. Another couple of voters hopefully settle this.

I have yet to buy a Maiden anything - except recently. It was a Maiden tribute Cd. Beast over Greece. Had to. It’s damn cool. You know how some people don’t like one certain band ? Who knows why ? But I’ve had cool experiences at parties - and in cars - with people playing Maiden ! Talk about a late bloomer ha ha !

I'll just use this as the tie-breaker unless another voter shows up in the next couple of hours.
It's not the presidential election or anything, so I'll gladly use anything to break a tie.
