New Frontier is the best track on Dance Of Death and its hardly a bad album.

Yeah, I can't see why everyone is giving it such a hard time. Definetely underrated.

Holy shit this is difficult..........

In no particular order, here we go

1. Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son
2. Flight Of Icarus
3. Stranger In A Strange Land

Honorable mentions:

For The Greater Good Of God
Dance Of Death
The Wicker Man
When Two Worlds Collide
The Clansman
Sign Of The Cross
The Fugitive
Alexander The Great
Wasted Years
Rime Of The Ancient Mariner
Aced High
Run To The Hills
Wrathchild
Strange World

I'd love to get into the argument of which album is better than another, but this has been done so many times before. But I'll say this and almost everyone should agree....Fear Of The Dark and No Prayer For The Dying are the two weakest albums. Perhaps if they were created in a different time and space they could have been better; but they did feel like tired and uninspired efforts.

There are some good songs to come from those 2 albums (Judas Be My Guide, Afraid To Shoot Strangers, Be Quick Or Be Dead, Tailgunner, Run Silent Run Deep, Bring Your Daughter...To The Slaughter), but overall they lacked that special something that were in all the Maiden releases before them.

I've always, and will continue to, defend the Blaze Bayley era of Iron Maiden. Both The X-Factor and Virtual XI are good albums with great tracks and are both better than FOTD and NPFTD.

Up the Irons!

1. The Clairvoyant
2. Revelations
3. Prowler

I seriously just picked random songs off the top of my head... it might be easier to pick the WORST songs.

and Dance of Death is pretty awful... there's some good composition in it but somehow everything about it gives me a headache. The title track is probably my favorite from it. The production is atrocious (especially compared to Martin Birch's on their past albums).

All I know is that the cover for Dance Of Death is the worst fucking cover art I've probably ever seen,
