"Dignity." Nope.

 

[Mardoch]

Lol. I meant it more as an "after those obligations are done," kinda deal. I really don't why they grabbed one of the worst singers heavy music has ever known for that gig, though. Name recognition is all I can think of.

Can someone just clone a new Bon Scott. Come on science, get on it.

[Ivorygate]

I'm one who cannot stand AC/DC. Two bands that I just cannot tolerate (and I fully admit it makes no rational sense) are AC/DC and Judas Priest. I understand how influential both are, but man..... They are like nails on a chalkboard to me.

Still and all, hats off to them on a great career.

Priest? Seriously?

While moments of cheese are quite prevalent on 80's & 90's Priest albums, the musical output of Judas Priest in the 1970's was unparalleled in style, execution, and influence. It was 80's metal before 80's metal ever existed.

I still consider "Stained Class" (1978) the #1 metal album of all time (perhaps even the #1 piece of music and lyrics of the 20th Century), with "Sin After Sin" (1977) and "Sad Wings of Destiny" (1976) not very far behind.

If you've never given those albums above a serious listen (and even many Priest fans themselves haven't, instead opting for the more radio friendly sounds of the 80's Priest incantation), you are truly missing out on some monumental recordings before metal became a mass marketed "teenage angst" product of the 1980's.

- Ian

"So much self-indulgence
Results in shuddered eyes
Predominant complacency
Leads to beguiling lies"

- Judas Priest (1978)
