If you are a fan of Heavy Metal, this 2018 remaster is a "must-have" for your collection. It is the classic 1982 album, but with a modern touch that makes it feel fresh. 1. Sound Quality (The Remaster) The first thing you will notice in the video is the sound. The 2018 remastering is excellent. Clearer Vocals: Bruce Dickinson’s voice sounds powerful and very sharp. Better Balance: You can hear Steve Harris’s bass more clearly now. No Noise: The background hiss is gone, but it still keeps that "old school" energy. It sounds great on both headphones and big speakers. 2. Build Quality & Design This version comes in a Digipack (cardboard case), and the quality is impressive: The Materials: The cardboard is thick and strong. It doesn't feel cheap. The Paper: Inside, the booklet uses high-quality glossy paper. The lyrics are easy to read, and the photos look professional. The Illustration: Derek Riggs’ legendary artwork looks better than ever. The colors are vibrant, and the details of "Eddie" are very crisp. It looks beautiful when you show it to the camera!

English heavy metal masters Iron Maiden's third album The Number of the Beast was originally released in April of 1982 here in the US on the Capitol subsidary Harvest (same label that Pink Floyd was on from late 1969-73 and The Little River Band's first four album was on this label here in the US as well). This album was their second with producer Martin Birch and guitarist Adrian Smith but was the first with new frontman Bruce Dickinson (a/k/a "THE AIR RAID SIREN") whom was light years ahead of predecessor Paul Di'anno in the singing and stage presence departments. This album was recorded and mixed at Battery Studios in late 1981 but it doesn't sound like it at all. This album has no weak moment and bass player Steve Harris was on fire with his songwriting contributions on all tracks except as noted. It kicks off with the thundering "Invaders" which signaled that Maiden meant business and was an excellent rocker. Next was "Children of the Damned" which is a classic track as well with lyrics inspired by the classic novel of the same name and musically was inspired by Pink Floyd/Jethro Tull/Genesis/Black Sabbath. "The Prisoner" follows (co-written by guitarist Adrian Smith) and is based on the show of the same name that was huge on television in the 1960s. Next is "22 Acacia Avenue" which is part two to "Charlotte the Harlot" (and co-written by guitarist Dave Murray) and Bruce just wails on this track vocally. The legendary title cut follows and had some controversy when released as the band was labelled Satanic by Jerry Falwell and later Tipper Gore's PMRC but this song just rocks out with its lyrics crying against Satan worshiping and not condoning it. Next was the album's first single and still a classic on rock radio today "Run to the Hills" which was about the desecration of the Native American Indian tribes. "Gangland" follows and was the only track not written by Harris, this time it was Smith and Maiden drummer Clive Burr who wrote it. It was considered a weak tune but Bruce's vocal was unearthly as he hit high screams which were not heard since either Robert Plant, Rob Halford or Ian Gillan hit notes of that range a few years earlier. The original album concludes with Harris' epic "Hallowed Be Thy Name" about a lowly soul about to be executed and can't imagine why he cries when he is about to die. "Total Eclipse" is the bonus track on this remastered edition and was not used on the original album due to lack of time but is a killer track. It was revealed that Bruce co-wrote many of the tracks here but for some legal reasons (with his old management and band) was not allowed credit on the tracks. The Number of the Beast turned out to be Iron Maiden's US breakthrough hitting the US Top 40 and going Gold (eventually Platinum). This album sold because the songs on here are brilliant and have aged well unlike some 80s new wave artists like either A Flock of Seagulls or Duran Duran, whose music is completely dated. The album was re-released on EMI in 1998 as a digitally remastered CD with enhanced video footage plus an excellent booklet featuring photos and full lyrics and credits. Highly recommended!

Although this is not their best album it is still one of Iron Maiden's 5 star albums. Must have for any collector. Not a bad song on it.

This is one of the rare albums where not a moment is wasted musically. The odd lead in samples are a bit dated, but the sound is still amazing. One of the best metal albums I can think of. Up the Irons
