The Number of the Beast is the third studio album by Iron Maiden, released in 1982. The album captured the imaginations of many metal fans through its scary looking, yet amusing cover art by Derek Riggs. The Number of the Beast attracted controversy due to the lyrics of the title track and the cover art depicting Eddie controlling Satan like a puppet, while Satan is also controlling a smaller Eddie.
