Everything you just said about Iron Maiden is 100% wrong: the lead singer's voice is one of the clearest. So much so you can actually understand the lyrics as opposed to groups like Slipknot

Additionally, Iron Maiden does not sing about depressing stuff, IMO. They sing about things like the glory of fighting for your country from the eyes of a soldier, they sing about the internal struggle one goes through as a leader, and they recreate classic tales and poems into contemporary song. I've been listening to Maiden for 20+ years and I never feel depressed when I listen to their albums.

They put on a damn good live show, too, btw.

Emo, on the other hand...If you replaced "Iron Maiden" with "Emo", I'd totally agree with you.

Emo sucks the shit out of a dead racoon's ass.
