Love this album for it's theme (dark tone and vocal expression). I love Bruce's vocal creativity on this album. And if I'm being honest, I believe this was the last album where Bruce still had a really effortlessly powerful voice. After this album, he lost a little of his vocal agility due to age. The guitar work, again, amazing. Beautiful harmonies and licks.
Some people call this album a radio sellout album. I think it's as Maiden as ever. Fear of the Dark is a MASTERPIECE. It would also be like a parallel to the yet-to-come Dance of Death, too.
Favourite songs from this album - Fear of the Dark, Chains of Misery, Be Quick Or Be Dead, Childhood's End.
