Heavy Metal
♥♥♥ Only The Good Die Young / ♥♥ Infinite Dreams / ♥ The Clairvoyant
Before "Seventh Son of a Seventh Son" Dickinson's band had launched greatest hits but none of their albums had been able to result as epic and cohesive as this one. Ominous songs from start to finish in this conceptual struggle between the good and the evil. The seventh child given birth by the British is still the top of the Heavy Metal genre.
