I'm not at all a metal fan... I remember pretending to like some of that (nonsense) back in seventh grade. I liked some Avenged Sevenfold back in the day. It sounds terrible to me now. That was pretty much my first and only, though.

My first taste of REAL metal was Iron Maiden's "Piece of Mind". I was playing in a hard rock cover band at the time and my girlfriend thought that I'd dig Maiden because I leaned towards the heavier stuff we covered. I was hooked immediately.

I was into rock and hard rock prior to that; Asia, Rush, Whitesnake, Cinderella, etc.

I still love Maiden and other metal from Kamelot to Angra, but I still also get into my hard rock / progressive rock bands i.e. Queensryche, Triumph, Styx, etc.

Iron Maiden. It was 1988 and the album was Seventh Son of a Seventh Son. I still consider it a classic.

That's actually my favorite Maiden album! Good choice.
