It was interpreted as 'gratuitous sexism.' The media were offended by what appeared to be the band's mascot, Eddie, spying on a young girl in her bedroom. Like the covers for their two previous singles, the artwork for 'Twilight Zone' was subject to criticism in the press. The record was followed by the band's first world tour, dubbed 'The Killer Tour,' which included their debut performance in the United States, where they opened for Judas Priest at The Aladdin Casino in Las Vegas. Only two new songs were written for this record 'Killers,' which are 'Prodigal Son' and 'Murders in the Rue Morgue'.Īs a result of the band being completely dissatisfied with the production on their debut album, they decided to hire veteran producer, Martin Birch, who would work with Iron Maiden until his retirement in 1992. The album is comprised of left-over material, which was all written prior to the band's debut album, Iron Maiden. Released in 1981, Killers is the title of the second album by British Heavy Metal band Iron Maiden. Derek Riggs's Covers for Killers, 1981, and Its Singles
