Rage Against The Machine guitarist Tom Morello expresses his deep desire to see Iron Maiden join the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, considering their absence a major injustice.
Tom Morello ready to do anything to get Iron Maiden into the Rock Hall
In a recent interview with Eddie Trunk on Sirius XM, Tom Morello expressed his commitment to seeing heavy metal band Iron Maiden inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Morello, himself a big fan of the British band, considers their absence an anomaly in the pantheon of Rock. “I would do anything to get Iron Maiden in there. There are other deserving bands, but for me, Iron Maiden is the biggest current omission from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame,” he declared fervently.
Although singer Bruce Dickinson has expressed that he is not particularly interested in the recognition, Morello emphasizes the importance it has to him as a fan. “Iron Maiden represent the pinnacle of metal bands, and they are not in the Hall of Fame. As a fan, I really care about it,” he added.

Morello does not intend to spare his efforts to correct this situation. “I’m going to use whatever limited influence I have to try to get Iron Maiden into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame,” he said. This unwavering support from Morello shows how much Iron Maiden hold a special place in the hearts of metal fans, and how their entry into the Rock Hall would be seen as a victory for the genre.
Music fans, and in particular those of Rage Against The Machine, know how passionate Tom Morello can be in his engagements. This crusade in favor of the induction of Iron Maiden could well rally many admirers of metal and rock.
