| Out of all the IM albums I listened to this morning I was most impressed with Killers. Certainly the first four are tried and true classics however until today I didn't have much respect for this album. Will certainly give this album more time on the iPod. |

| Have to agree. Killers rules! I usually list it as my favorite MAIDEN album.

| My favorite of the two DiAnno albums. Favorite song is Murders In The Rue Morgue. Other favorites: the hell with it, if I list my other favorites I'd just be listing every song on it. A classic and from the first track to the last it is a five star album. |

This climbed so high up my all time Maiden list in one day it may have set a record! |

| I was always a bigger Dickinson fan than a DiAnno fan. But of the two discs Maiden recorded with DiAnno, KILLERS is also my fave.

| The Killers - through - Powerslave era is just one extended act of brilliance. I like DiAnno's rough vocals. Killers is awesome! |

| O.K. - I sold my Castle copy of this quite some time ago so I hadn't heard this in a while. I recently re-acquired this on Vinyl.
I only listen to my records whilst I'm in the garage lifting or doing chores.
I kid you not, I'm stepping up to the squat rack and it hits me. I pause and think "This is the best Metal album up to that point in History". I thought about it more and more and that's what I maintain. In My Opinion, through 1981 there was not a better Heavy Metal album. I can't believe it's 27 years old and how good it is.
Killers!!! :metal:
Iron Maiden... - 1980
Killers........... - 1981
Number Of..... - 1982
Piece Of ....... - 1983
Powerslave.... - 1984
5 albums in 5 years of THAT quality!!! That's the best run in Metal/music history in my opinion. Unbelievable....... |

That's a really valid point. You could say the same about Saxon and Priest, as well. |

| I just replaced my original scratched copy from '81 with the Castle reissue. I threw it in the player the other day and was thinking to myself that, out of the first 6 Maiden albums, I can't think of a song I hate. I'm not saying everything is pure gold; but there's nothing horrible, imho. |
