To celebrate my 250th Instagram post

@herr_black_metal I did this collage for the 25 most important bands/albums in
"My Metal History 1988 - 1994" a timeline beginning with Iron Maiden. Before discovering Black Metal in 1994 with Dissection and Emperor, then it was in motion a new era of my life began. I didn't know it at the time, but with time it sure had a HUGE impact on my life. I probably forgotten some bands/albums...

Iron Maiden - Seventh Son of a Seventh Son (1988)

The first ever Metal record I got was this album by Iron Maiden. My mother let me choose one cassette tape at a record store when I was 8 years old in 1988. Me and a friend used to listen to his 2 older brothers Heavy Metal records at his place. I didn't remember what the best songs was called in the record store so I picked the one I thought looked most badass, guts and everything coming out of Iron Maiden's mascot Eddie. It wasn't a bad choice but "Powerslave" (1984), "Piece of Mind" (1983), "The Number of the Beast" (1982) etc.is better records. Don't get me wrong I love this album from beginning to end. 3 favorite songs on it this album: Moonchild, Seventh Son of a Seventh Son and The Clairvoyant.    

Guns N' Roses - Appetite for Destruction
