while some osrt of sophistication must have gone through both bands' heads at the time, i think metallica's growth had more to do with what was going to come within the thrash metal scene while maiden were just pushing their shit to the limit.

while you may be right, 'ride the lightning' is superior to 'powerslave'. in fact, nothing iron maiden ever did was as good as metallica's first four records. best metal band ever at that juncture, one of the best bands ever for that matter.
ironnicaly, im wearing an iron maiden shirt right now.
