      One of the things I did want to say about your rant, and about people who DON’T like Senjutsu. I just find it very odd that you dislike an album on the day it came out. Normally, unless its a genre I dislike or an album that is a total dud, I need to spend some time with an album before I form an opinion on it. These people had formed an opinion on it after they had probably listened to the album once, if at all. So forgive me if I disregard their negativity. The fact they also try to have a go at others who were positive about the album just shows you where these people are coming from.
      To be honest, I think most of them had already decided they were going to dislike Senjutsu before they even listened to it. A high profile band like Maiden is going to bring out the clowns 🤡 Muppets are best ignored.

    My ranking:
    1. Killers - This is eddie in his natural state
    2. Somewhere in time - the attention to is simply outstanding
    3. Powerslave - I love the egyptian aesthetic and the grand scale of it
    4. The number of the beast - Its a fucking classic, and I love the way eddie looks
    5. Iron maiden - I love how intimidating eddie looks
    6. Senjutsu - eddie looks so badass
    7. Brave new world - eddie looks so ominous and intimidating
    8. Seventh son of a seventh son - its veey eerie and creepy. I love it
    9. Piece of mind - like you said, it just doesn't fit the album. Its still a classic though
    10. A matter of life and death - love the war theme and those sceleton soldiers look badass
    11. Fear of the dark - its not really special, but its still pretty cool
    12. No prayer for the dying - I dont really like the way eddie looks, but I love the setting
    13. The final frontier - the space theme looks cool, I just dont like it as much as the others
    14. The book of souls - its nothing special. eddie looks cool though
    15. Viritual XI - I dont like how eddie looks
    16. The X factor - I just think it looks terrible
    17. Dance of death - °_°

      I think Piece if mind is in the top 3. Not only is it Eddies most torturous state but, it also represents "Revelations."
      I went to rehab a while back and to me it represents how brutal the trip back to "reality" can be.
      The cover also doesn't have to fit the album, it has to fit the listener.

    @omaralakhras9845 3 года назад +19

    17. Dance of Death
    16. X Factor
    15. A Matter of Life and Death: it's just skeleton soldiers and you can't see Eddie clearly.
    14. No Prayer for the dying: this could have been the absolute best maiden cover art. Brilliant idea, terrible execution. The coloring is bad and everything surrounding eddie is badly drawn.
    13. The Final Frontier: I like the idea but Eddie looks hideous though.
    12. Virtual XI: Pretty cool.
    11. The Book of Souls: the Live Chapter cover should've been the studio album cover.
    10. Fear of the dark
    9. Iron Maiden
    8. Somewhere in time
    7. Piece of Mind
    6. Powerslave
    5. Brave new world: the most unique iron maiden cover. When i first saw it, I thought it was a fan art.
    4. Senjutsu: Could have been even higher if they added a background
    3. Seventh son of a seventh son
    2. The Number of The Beast
    1. Killers: it's Eddie.

  • @crazyking1896
    @crazyking1896 3 года назад +8

    Iron Maiden album covers are just iconic and many easily can make it into the best album cover lists. Anyways here's my list.
    17. The X Factor- God hate I this boring, colorless, bizarre cover. What happened to Eddie?!
    15. Dance of Death- This gives me nightmares, Eddie looks alright, but the cgi models are horrendous.
    14. Virtual XL- Kinda looks poorly hand drawn, Eddie looks cool, the colors are cool too, but the stupid soccer field in the corner is unnecessary.
    13. No Prayer for the Dying- Eddie looks vicious, but not much else is going on here, and the art isn't that good either.
    13. Book of Souls- Badass Eddie, but I wish there was a background instead of black.
    12. Iron Maiden- Simple, but a classic, Eddie does look weird though.
    11. A Matter of Life and Death- Love the art and skeletons, but you can't barely see Eddie.
    10. The Final Frontier- Love the art and colors, yes Eddie is so different but still a interesting concept.
    9. Seventh Son of a Seventh Son- Very overrated album and art, but it's great art still, the colors are beautiful and the background is cool, but I never liked Eddie here.
    8. Senjustu- Yes I wish there was a background, but Samurai Eddie is probably my favorite Eddie, and the Japanese text adds a nice effect.
    7. Fear of the Dark- Classic artwork, and a tree monster Eddie is awesome.
    6. Piece of Mind- Second favorite album, and the cover is just so cool, Eddie is badass and scary, and he's been chained up and first time we see his amazing lobotomise design.
    5. Killers- Just a amazing classic, Iconic Eddie and the amazing art.
    4. Brave New World- Favorite Iron Maiden album and amazing art. The colors are great and future London down there looks awesome. Also Eddie is so intimidating.
    3. Powerslave- The amount of epicness is outstanding and Eddie as a pyramid god is amazing.
    2. The Number of the Beast- The most metal cover ever. The fire, the lightning, the giant Killers Eddie with
    flames in his hands, and puppeteering freaking SATAN!!
    1. Somewhere in Time- Best album probably ever, the colors, the art, Eddie is so awesome, and the many references.

    11. Iron Maiden (My favorite album, but I must admit that the art is not much)
    10. Fear of the Dark (Convincing or unconvincing, I am still not sure)
    9. Senjutsu (Not a great idea, but drawn perfectly)

    4. Somewhere in Time (SF at its best)
    3. Number of the Beast (Iconic, if ever there was one)
    2. Powerslave (Everything is perfect here)

With that being said, Killers, Powerslave, Somewhere in time and Live after death (yes, I know it's not a studio album but still...) are eternally engaged in a fight within me for that No1 spot! As for the least favorite cover, I agree with you and it's the X-Factor one. What a way to introduce Bruce's successor to Maiden fans all around the world... Bad idea, really bad.

    17. The Final Frontier - for me is wtf cover
    16. Iron Maiden - just creep dood
    15. The Book Of Souls (Classic cover) - Great Design, but weak idea - no background.
    14. The X Factor - Dark, fits the album, though uncomfortable to watch for real
    13. A Matter Of Life and Death - Moody, fits the album, but to be honest, if even detailed it's just feels weak
    12. Dance Of Death - though even 3d sucks, the idea and athmosphere is something i feel here. This is why it is so high.
    11. Seventh Son Of The Seventh Son - It is bright and shiny, what feels like what album is, though never really like cover that much.
    10. Piece Of Mind - Great Idea - poor execution. Black and Yellow almost the only colours, it doesn't feet the album, but at least it is dark and you can enjoy it.
    9. Fear Of The Dark - Lazy. It's not bad. It's just lazy.
    8. The Number Of The Beast - everything said in the video.
    7. Killers - everything said in the video x2, but not a number 1 for me.
    6. No Prayer For Dying - I don't think it is poorly executed. I think everything great about this one, fits everything.
    5. Powerslave - Iconic, even being bright, really is dark and fits the mood of the album
    4. Senjetsu - Great Desing of Eddy and Logo
    3. Virtual XI - Dark, contrast, fits the album being more Judas Priest than Maiden, and still being pretty dark.
    2. Somewhere In Time - Detailed, Athmospheric, firs the album
    1. Brave New World - Very Athmospheric, fits the album

    17. Dance Of Death: The fan art that has deleted the creepy characters and only kept reaper Eddie, the 12-pointed star and the guys in robes is much better. 3/10
    16. The X Factor: The design of Eddie is just awkward and disgusting. 4/10
    15. No Prayer For The Dying: Eddie looks OK but the colours are ugly and the background is pretty bad. 5/10
    14. The Book Of Souls: Eddie looks great but the lack of background is stupid. 6/10
    13. Senjutsu: Same as The Book Of Souls but with a more badass Eddie. 6/10
    12. A Matter Of Life And Death: I LOVE the setting but Eddie is way too much in the background. 7/10
    11. The Final Frontier: Underrated album cover IMO. I like alien Eddie and the background suits the album perfectly. 7/10
    10. Piece Of Mind: Never been a huge fan of this album cover. Eddie looks awesome but I don't like the colours and the overall setting is disturbing. 7/10
    9. Virtual XI: I love the design of Eddie and the colours creates a creepy atmosphere. 7/10
    8. Seventh Son: Not my favorite Eddie but the background more than compensates for it. 8/10
    7. Fear Of The Dark: Eddie looks creepy and the overall atmosphere of the album cover is very sinister. 8/10
    6. Somewhere In Time: One of the best Eddies but perhaps a little too much easter eggs in the background. 9/10
    5. Iron Maiden: The creepy look of Eddie fits the album perfectly. 9/10
    4. Brave New World: Beautiful colours with Eddie shining in the sky. 9/10
    3. Powerslave: No comments needed. 10/10
    2. The Number Of The Beast: No comments needed. 10/10
    1. Killers: No comments needed. 10/10

    Piece of Mind Rules! It represents the listener rather than the album. And Revelations.

    I like most Maiden covers, „Somewhere“, „Seventh Son“, Powerslave“ and „Killers“ are my favorites. I really don‘t like „Dance of death“, „AMOLAD“ and also „Fear of the dark“, the first cover not created by Derek Riggs. That was a big letdown for me back in the days when they released this record.

  • @VelhaGuardaTricolor
    @VelhaGuardaTricolor 2 года назад

    I am a big Iron Maiden fan, I have painted a few album covers in oil painting and they are still hanging in my walls. That is how much I love some of those covers. But I got to be honest. The only artworks I like are:
    Live after Death, The Trooper, Killers, Iron Maiden, Fear of the Dark and Piece of Mind.
    I could live with: The Number of the Beast, Powerslave and Somewhere in Time
    But the rest IMHO are almost cringy.

  • @gggarth666

    Liked what you said at the beginning. 100% agreed, though I‘m one of those who think Senjutsu is rather mediocre. Liked it at first but after three listenings it started to bore me pretty much the whole way through.
    The artwork on the other hand is one of their best IMO.
    For me the best one is Somewhere in time, my least favorite is Dance of Death. I would even call it one of the worst cover artworks of all time…
