Dance Of Death (beyond bad!!)

[–] ike642000 15 years ago

I'm a big fan of Derek Riggs' artwork so most of his covers dominate the top part of my list.

1) Somewhere in Time (So many hidden references, I spent ages staring at the front and back of this cover finding them all)
2) Killers
3) Powerslave
4) Number of the Beast
5) Iron Maiden (I don't mind the remastered version either)
6) Seventh Son of a Seventh Son
7) Piece of Mind
8) Brave New World
9) A Matter of Life and Death
10) No Prayer For The Dying (This was better before they remastered it and lost the guy being choked by Eddie)
11) Fear of the Dark
12) The X Factor (Bit of a weird and darker direction, so it kind if echoed the music of this album)
13) Virtual XI (Pretty naff cover, but at least they brought out a hologram version)
14) Dance of Death (would've been alright without all the crappy CGI people)

No Prayer For The Dying (This was better before they remastered it and lost the guy being choked by Eddie)

Agreed

I am shocked no one has mentioned 'Live After Death'.
Definitely one of Maiden's best albums and best album covers.

I never really cared about the artworks but I would definitely put Dance of Death in last place. That cover looks so *beep* horrendous.

I get it up, I get it up in the dark, I make her feel I'm not a holy man
