Iron Maiden – The Number of the Beast
Unleashed upon the world in 1982, The Number of the Beast is the album that cemented Iron Maiden as the reigning kings of heavy metal. This legendary record marks Bruce Dickinson’s electrifying debut as lead vocalist, delivering powerhouse performances that would define the band's sound for decades to come.
From the galloping fury of "Run to the Hills" to the ominous, theatrical "The Number of the Beast," every track is a masterclass in metal storytelling, powered by Steve Harris’s thunderous bass lines, Adrian Smith and Dave Murray’s searing guitar harmonies, and Clive Burr’s relentless drumming. The album isn’t just heavy—it’s dynamic, balancing raw aggression with melodic grandeur, making it as spine-tingling today as it was over 40 years ago.
With its iconic album cover featuring Eddie, Iron Maiden’s legendary mascot, and lyrics that sparked controversy, intrigue, and legions of devoted fans, The Number of the Beast isn’t just an album—it’s a rite of passage for any true metalhead.
