    Iron Maiden's 'Beast' named best British album of past 60 years

    Maiden's 1982 album The Number of the Beast has been named the best British album of the past 60 years in a new poll.

    The heavy metal band's third studio effort beat off competition from Depeche Mode's Violator and The Beatles' Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, who landed at two and three respectively.


    Get in!!

    Run to the hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiilllssssssss, Run for your liiiiiiiiiiiiiife!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I used to live next door to Iron Maiden at number 668, I was the neighbour of the beast.
