Hmm, well lets prove you wrong AGAIN.
Om. Bass and drums only, and undeniably metal.

Keyboards belong in metal just as much as guitars do. Infact, most of the better bands now days use keyboards, just because you are stuck in the 80s doesn't mean that you can't be a good band and use keyboards.

Fame =/= talent, because by that statement you are saying that Slipknot and Ashlee Simpson are talented.

Fame = luck and good timing.

I swear, had Helstar been as lucky as Iron Maiden were by getting noticed by whatever guy "made" them big, then we would all be worshiping Helstar not IM.

Dont take this offensively crushed hope but they are a hell of a lot more musically tallanted than the death metal you listen too.
No, not really. Iron Maiden are no where near as musically talented as Neuraxis or Psycroptic or !T.O.O.H!. Infact, I love how you say I listen to DM, when I have stated MANY times that I listen to very little DM and instead listen to ALOT of black metal.
