Gangland is possibly the most hated Iron Maiden song, and not really that much but the fans as it is by the band themselves. The song which has not only never been played live, but Steve Harris himself actually wishes it was never included on Number of the beast and should have been replaced with Total Eclipse. So as a part of our Up the Irons Series let's take a look at some of the most interesting facts about Gangland, discuss its rivalry with Total Eclipse, and then hopefully answer the question whether Iron Maiden were actually wrong to include it on Number of the beast.
And what do you think about Gangland and Total Eclipse?
