One or the other. I didn't at the "both kick ass" option. My vote goes to Maiden all the way.

Well, I never really got into Carcass, so that is pretty damn lame too. The only album I am into is Heartwork. That is good shit. I have had This Mortal Coil stuck in my head all night. I have thought about listening to some of the other albums more thuroughly (there is no way that is spelled right), but I don't feel like trying to remember the names of 30+ songs all with 3 or 4 5 syllable words in them. I think I will stick with Opeth. Requiem, Sillhouette, Deliverance, Prologue, Epilogue, Benighted. All easy names to remember.

Damn it you people! That is two more votes and 0 more replies!

I voted for Carcass, it's just more my "style" I guess.

I love Carcass till the cows come home (except swansong), but Iron Maiden gets my vote at the end of the day. Longevity and . . . well, I'm an 80's metalhead I guess.

Heartwork and Piece of Mind are both desert island discs for me.

I didn't like swangsong or tools of the trade.
but then again, iron maiden got virus and all the other trash they release since 95.

very true. Maiden have released some clunkers, when you consider the volume of Carcass releases in comparison...

whether or not carcass is good, why would anyone vote for them over Maiden?

egads, this looks like a dead heat!

i wonder if the 2004 elec--

naaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh...
