Di'Anno's powerful, raw voice defined Iron Maiden’s early sound. He fronted the band for their first two albums, "Iron Maiden" and "Killers", which are considered classics in the metal genre. His stage presence was electrifying, his lyrics dark and full of passion, and his voice, well, it was pure metal.

The Early Years and His Contribution to Iron Maiden

Paul Di'Anno was born in 1958 in England. He was a music fanatic from an early age and quickly fell in love with heavy metal. He joined Iron Maiden in 1977, and the band took off like a rocket, becoming one of the most popular metal bands of the early 80s.
