I have a feeling this one will be predictable. But we will make it snappy. I have a feeling I'll be putting up the next poll in 24hrs time.

My top 7 would be: #1 s/t, #2 Number of the Beast, #3 Powerslave, #4 Somewhere In Time #5 Piece of Mind #6 Killers #7 Seventh Son of A Seventh Son

Obviously, I'm going with "Seventh Son of a Seventh Son"

I know Seventh will win but AMOLAD gets my vote.

Excellent choice. It is really good. Best thing the band ever did, in my opinion.

Good choice, I almost went with this.

I could never understand why Fear of the Dark was never that popular among Maiden fans. I believe it has some of the best tracks the band has ever written.

Be quick or be dead, from here to eternity and the title track are simply fantastic.

Seventh Son again. Now, Fear of the Dark is the only one left I care for.

I like about five songs on FotD but a lot feels mostly meh.

I like about three, and agree with you. Though those three are all amazing songs.

And the "bad Bruce" singing style on that album makes me cringe.

I wondered what he was going for 'cause it came across as just strange.

Now that people are finally voting for Seventh Son in numbers that quarantees its win without my vote, I can finally show my appreciation towards the album that deserves it.

I feel it really should have been higher. From top to bottom 7th Son is their most consistent release. Clairvoyant is a killer track and a personal favourite, but it feels wrong to pick individual tracks as standouts when the whole thing flows so well.

I'd pick it over the first two albums.

Yeah, that album doesn't really have any weak moments. Solid stuff from beginning to end. Clairvoyant is my all time favorite Maiden track.
