This is about the music so I really could care less how they dressed. Halford just wore what he would wear going to the bar. Vocal wise? Very close. They both are excellent it depends on your personal preference. I think that Maiden has superior songs as they are more complex, longer, less poppy than Priest. I also prefer Maiden’s guitar work. So I vote IRON MAIDEN and I’ll bet any metal head would choose them also.

I agree. Maiden uses the same formula for every other song. Priest can hold down a groove, whereas Maiden tends to rely a little to much on scale harmonies at times, making them sound more monochromatic. The riff interplay between Tipton and Downing is priceless. Glenn’s playing just kept getting better and better with every album. Maiden leveled out and haven’t really challenged themselves as guitarists or as a band in forever.

Have you heard solo on beyond the realms of Death my friend? That solo kills everything maiden has ever done. ( For me that’s the most original and awesome solo ever composed.)
Maiden guitarists can never match Glenn Tipton. It’s Just a fact.

solos in 2 minutes to midnight powerslave particularly powerslave are awesome the whole powerslave and somewhere in time album have great solos piece of mind number of the beast and powerslave awesome vocals, vocals and guitar differ maiden have not done any solo like painkiller but to me priest have never done a solo like powerslave with so many emotions perfection (even if its easier) that also ends with great drums, its all different cause maidens formula is more rounded and even priests is more vicious on guitar and high end vocals, there both so great why argue they are both my 2 fave bands with led zep.

hahahaha Rob rapes Bruce in vocals, and Glen just listen to the solo no Painkiller the Maiden boys will never do anything like that. Bruce has a very nasal voice, while Rob can scream and last longer and sings better.

Check out the solo from Painkiller. Iron Maiden will never be able to play it. Check out the vocals of Painkiller, Bruce will never be able to sing like that.
