Unlike Aerosmith, Van Halen, Mötley Crüe and others from that era, Metallica isn't a nostalgia act. They continue to release albums on a semi-regular basis, the last five of which were #1 the week upon release. The Black album sold more than 12 million copies its first year of release alone. Bands that sell out stadiums worldwide and sell millions of copies upon each release aren't living off of a single record released 27 years in the past. |

Furthermore, Iron Maiden has never had a release sell open at number in the US, let alone sell 1 million copies. Their biggest seller in the US was Fear of the Dark back in 1992, which sold 420,000 copies. And yes, they are playing the casino circuit out West. |
