Black Sabbath.....never really been a huge maiden fan for some reason. Maybe if I saw em live i would listen more to them

Black Sabbath pretty much invented metal,but that's not why I like Sabbath slightly better. It's the guitar tone, the blues touch, ozzy's crazy singing,..sometimes it's like the band are really stoned but have nevertheless hit upon really great subjects..like in snowblind.

As you all know, metal w/o Sabbath couldn't exist today...

Iron Maiden all the fucking way.

I have to admit I've never really been into Black Sabbath, couldn't really say why, they are brilliant but just not really my thing. They were better live than Maiden were though; however I'm not sure if that's because they had a brilliant stage show or if it was because Maiden made the mistake of playing pretty much every song from 'A Matter Of Life And Death', which didn't really impress anyone who was there.

So, again, Iron Maiden.
