About Iron Maiden
It’s a story like no other – a sound that changed the world. In the nearly 50 years since bassist Steve Harris’ vision was birthed in the humble working-class sprawl of East London Iron Maiden have grown to become nothing less than an institution.
More than tours that have encircled the globe or chart-smashing records that have inspired a fan base that can be found in every time zone, the near mythical status and undeniable cultural impact of Iron Maiden cannot be overstated. Yet it’s the fact that theirs is a tale which is still unfolding to this day which is truly worthy of note.
Maiden, simply, take no prisoners – not then, and not now, and in the decades since they cut their teeth they’ve grown to embody a spirit of fearless creative independence, unswerving dedication to their fans, and a cheerful indifference to their critics that can only be described as legendary.
