A very good compilation of some of their best songs. As with all best of compilations, you may not agree with all selections

Some good old tunes... Some naff dated ones...

Eight amazing tracks, Excellent musicians and the best vocals in heavy metal, Great use of synthesisers to compliment tracks Some may dislike the more epic and melodic departure

A lot of great Maiden tracks, Some tracks not previously released live, Amazing crowd response Many tracks have been released on previous live albumsBruce's vocals are clearly sufferingNot the band at their best

Original, old-school death metal. Mostly sounds similar to other death metal of the time.

Effective and distinctive folk metal. Some elements may still be jarring to newcomers.
