i love their many albums : powerslave, dance of death, and this one a matter of life and dead... they are good at manipulating the history material 1 2 Next

I totally agree with everything about the religious blindness, just one question though, is Iron Maiden religious in any way? In so many song they sound like religion is the numbest think ever.

This song is not attacking Religion, Its saying how people will kill other's over it and why it happens.

"Iron Maiden is a 5-member band, and they all differ." Actually, Iron Maiden is a 6-member band now.

This incredible song is about religion and how it has borught upon mankind alot of wars, suffering and pain through the years! Perhaps the best song of, perhaps, the best maiden-album!

when you're listening to this song at the beginning before bruce starts singing loud, just picture jack black singing. For some reason i can picture it sooo easy.
