Slayer and iron Maiden have been around long enough to build a fan base that can sell them records. Ask Metallica about their #1 albums. I'll play ball too.
lol yeah but Maiden has been around for nearly 40 years and they're still relevant enough to sell enough albums to land in the top 5. Nobody is going to give a fuck about bring me the horizon in 40 years. And Slayer had so much haters on their dick after Hanneman died and Lombardo left, yet they still sold enough to land in the top 5 on top of being around for nearly 35 years so yeah. If bring me the horizon is still debuting high or even around in 30 more years, I will find you, apologize and suck your balls.
And Ed, just for the record, BMTH may have charted higher than Maiden, but first week sales were stronger. BMTH sold 62,000 (which is a respectable number these days) but Maiden did 75,000

One of those bands is a commercial market based radio band and the other two are not.
