Is Iron Maiden a Christian band?

Iron Maiden is not a christian band but a Heavy Metal band from the 80's.

Where there may be some confusion is that one of their members Nicko McBrain has now converted to Christianity. He is the only one out of the band who even believes that God and Satan exist.

NO they are not.

Just like Slayer.....

no a hard rock metal band, good one too!

nope

Not in any way, though I can't speak for their personal beliefs outside the band.

They're not affiliated with any religion. They're just a great metal band.

Yeah, they are totally god blessed their music videos show the band praying under the street lights.

no way were did u get that idea from ?

i think they have eaten a few christians

no listen to the lyrics

Number of the Beast sounds real Christian right?

Um, no.

No Religion issues when it comes to Iron Maiden, just great Metal.. Fcuk yeah!! Its Maiden.. \m/

They never said they are and I do not think they are...

the number of the beast... it doesn't mean they have something to do with the devil either......

Iron maiden band has absolutely nothing to do with christianity.
just take look@ their logo "EDDIE" and some Cd covers, like "fear of the dark"and lyrics. :)
but they are great heavy metal band.

A lot of Christians love hard rock! That may be where you got the idea from. If you want the most famous Christian hard rock band of that time, try Stryper (friends of mine still swear they were the best rock band live ever!).

NUMBER OF THE BEAST 666????????????!!!!!!!!!!
Does that sound like a Christian band?
OMG!
Do you know nothing about Iron Maiden?
Wiki them.

Nope.

no...

they are not a christian band but the drummer niko mcbrain is. you can hear on the newest album that there lyrics have focuse on war and spirituality wich i believe the impact came from the drummer. check out the song "for the greater good of god" on there new album. great song.

they are not a satanic band at all. they mention that all the time at there concerts. the song "number of the beast" wich was written by steve harris came from a dream he had warning him to be carefuk of satan.

you know...??? for some reason i never thought that they were....
