Some people are obviously listing their personal favourites, which is fine, but the question is relating to greatest, which implies achievement, influence, popularity, contribution, etc.... In this respect I think it would be difficult to find a more important & influential Heavy Metal band than Iron Maiden.

No, it's easy: Black Sabbath

Black Sabbath did not invent heavy metal.

Its obviously SS so you might as well lock this thread now! 0
 
but srsly, there are many bands out there that can take the title. Also, as Far as I'm concerned, it does not simply imply that it has to be the most influential ect. Instead you can look at it in two ways, one way is the way you said (which is fine) but I seem to think "the greatest of all time" could also mean, the greatest in your books or in your time in listening to metal or whatever.
 
Also, new genres are also popping up all over the place now so it is okay to say that "the greatest electro pop grind Metalcore screamo band ever is...". It really doesn't make a difference 0

Not really, everybody has their personal tastes, sure, but it's hard to deny the impact of a band like Maiden or Priest on the genre, and the thing is, they make some amazing music already, so they're pretty much to go-to candidates.

How so?
 
Sabbath, Maiden, Slayer between 1983 and 1988, Kreator, Dismember, Morbid Angel, Coroner and a few others are probably my Absolute all time favourites.
