Piece Of Mind (1998) (RMST) (RAW POWER) (9 TRACKS) 320 Kbps MP3 ALBUM Iron Maiden
Album Description:
PIECE OF MIND is the fourth studio album by British heavy metal band Iron Maiden originally released in 1983 on EMI, and on Capitol in the U.S. The album ranked 21 on IGN's list of the top 25 metal albums. In 1983, Kerrang! magazine published a poll of the greatest metal albums of all time, with PIECE OF MIND ranking number 1, and with THE NUMBER OF THE BEAST at number 2. Along with Iron Maiden's follow up studio album POWERSLAVE, PIECE OF MIND is the band's second highest selling album, with estimated sales in excess of 13.5 million worldwide. In 1989, Steve Harris said that PIECE OF MIND was his favourite studio album Iron Maiden had recorded. Until 2000's BRAVE NEW WORLD, this album was Bruce Dickinson's favorite album.
PIECE OF MIND is the release that cemented Iron Maiden firmly in the 1980's, making it one of the decade's most successful and enduring metal bands. Album includes such standards as the soaring "Flight of Icarus" and the barnstorming war tale "The Trooper." While the band had dabbled with epics on previous albums, PIECE OF MIND was the first to feature several complex tunes, like the album-opening "Where Eagles Dare," the contemplative "Revelations," and the album-closing "To Tame a Land," the last of which was inspired by the sci-fi novel series DUNE, by Frank Herbert. Personnel changes on this album include ex-Trust/Pat Travers drummer Nicko McBrain who took over for Clive Burr, but that shakeup did not hamper the success of PIECE OF MIND which, in keeping with Maiden's streak of hit releases, is another classic album.
