maiden

A unmarried woman, usually a young woman who may or may not have had sexual relations. Another word for "virgin" before "virgin" was imported by the French-speaking Normans.

In olden days, portrayed as a sweet, innocent, fawn-eyed girl who is naïve about sex.

"Girl" and "maiden" were once gender-neutral words that refered to a young person of either sex.

The unfortunate maiden became prey for the dragon.

iron maiden

Founded by bassist Steve Harris, Iron Maiden infused Thin Lizzy style dueling guitars and throbbing basslines with a more metallic sound, leading the British Heavy Metal explosion circa 1980. Though they've made brilliant music throughout their career (excluding No Prayer for the Dying and Fear of the Dark), Maiden were at their peak from Number of the Beast through Somewhere in Time. Known for blisteringly intense live shows featuring both flawless musicianship and energetic stage antics. Maiden is real fuckin' heavy metal. \m/

"Iron Maiden destroyed at Ozzfest '05. They gave me whiplash of the headbangingest sort. Hell, that was easily worth having to endure 50 minutes of the mallcore Mudvayne." -Me
