Lateralus sounds as cool as it gets. Personally, out of all their albums the only one I listened to as a proper album is Lateralus. Everything else I just put on the playlist at the same time and hit shuffle.

Wow, sounds like you have a fantastic job.

As for Iron Maiden, you're a mate so I won't get offended by you asking that. But I can't believe you never heard of them. :p
No, they don't shout at all. Iron Maiden are the biggest heavy metal band ever. Period. Whoever says otherwise is a fool. They've been around for over 30 years. If someone asked me to describe their music with just one word, my answer would be: melodic. One would think heavy metal can't be melodic but it is, they are simply unique and have a singer that could probably sing an opera. You're in for a real treat mate.

If you want, check out some of their songs:
(just check out the singer)

As for me, I'm seeing them live in Split on 10.08. I can't fooking wait, bought a ticket 10 months in advance. :D

What do you mean by public success? If you mean by MTV play time and such, then no, not much, like any other heavy metal band. But everything else, hell yes. They always play at sold out crowds, at stadiums, halls, anywhere. You give them a place, they'll fill it.

yep, that's exactly what I meant.. As in TV & Radio have very little influence on them. yet they've managed to sell 100 million albums or something and they're the undisputed kings of live shows

ahh i see, i have heard of them obviously!! i'm not that dumb!! but for example bon jovi, i went to his tour in london last friday, and i recognised some of his songs, i havn't heard iron maiden, but like bon jovi, i will probably recognise some of their songs when i hear them, i got a right ear bashing from some of my mates when i asked them "who is this rod stewart guy", in terms of live acts, i gotta say u2 were rele good, they put in a great performance, and sting with the police were good too, rod stewart was a bit of a disapointment though....rolling stones were..........loud :smoke: i've got pics from all of them, so i'll post a few after the iron maiden concert on saturday (i have i R.E.M next month who i have heard of :rulz: )

It's a concert on home-soil for them, I'm pretty sure they'll fill it. Be sure to let us know how it goes.
