The 1983 Listening Post - Iron Maiden - Piece of Mind

Iron Maiden - Piece of Mind

Iron Maiden
Piece of Mind
3.5 out of 5
Highlights:
Troopers
Nightmares
Sun and Steel
I’m still amazed that this could be produced with a straight face just one year after Spinal Tap. I’m equally amazed at how listenable it is.
This is the malaria of 80s metal. At one moment it reaches the highest point of the form and then, in the next song, the very depths of cliche.
It’s more of the same from Eddie’s boys.
