Heavy metal band Iron Maiden has been extremely popular since the 1980s, setting the standard for what would become known as power metal. Strong Bad, being a fan of metal, likes them in particular.
Occurrences

- Baddest of the Bands — Strong Bad says his stage prop is "maybe cooler than a giant robotic demon". This refers to the band's usage of elaborate stage props in their concerts, including giant puppets of demons and monsters.
- Several toons use a font called "Metal as in Heavy" which is very similar to that of Iron Maiden.
