RT if you prefer Maiden over Priest. I'm trying to prove a point to my friend.

this meme was inspired by all the elitists on youtube who disrespect Harry's artistic view by saying that "punky" maiden was better and the "operatic" Bruce albums suck when we all know damn well he was against the punk movement and never wanted a punk band

Tuesday, January 10: Paul Di’Anno’s Battlezone, “Warchild”
None of Paul Di’Anno’s post-Maiden output could be said to have a real vision (and to be fair, this was probably something he took as a point of pride), but “Warchild” perhaps pointed to what the rest of Battlezone, especially guitarist and primary songwriter John Hurley, might’ve been aiming for, as it mostly offered up a supercharged take on Killers. The track was a brisk headbanger that placed Di’Anno’s distinctive vocals in a musical setting that imagined what Maiden might’ve sounded like if they started in the mid ‘80s and didn’t have Steve Harris’ idiosyncratic approach to bass and composition. It wasn’t entirely inspiring, but Di’Anno sounded engaged and seemed ready to jump back into the fray, even growing a mullet to show he was with the times. And “Warchild” was fun and energetic in a low-budget way, offering something earthbound and natural for its frontman. On the other hand, there was no denying the bushleague aspects of Fighting Back’s writing and production, not to mention the general amateurishness of the Battlezone concept, such as it was.
