Best of the Rest: Judas Priest

[HamburgerBoy]

I didn't even know it was out until yesterday. I'll probably listen to it next year.

 

[Krow]

Do I really have to to know that it's not very good?

Better than the last 20 years of manilla road....

Implying Out of the Abyss or The Courts of Chaos are any good.

 

[SentinelSlain]

It's perfectly reasonable, it's just the lyrics a bit too simple where you want them to be more complex, same as Nostradamus.

Eh i just didnt pinpoint the year i was going for. Was posting from my phone.

You have to be trolling

I think Judas Priest lost its drive like 20 years ago and I don't even blame them tbh.

 

[SentinelSlain]

The Ripper albums have drive, they're just also overly lead by Glenn Tipton, stylistically and in terms of song writing. You can tell from his solo stuff. They could have just done Painkiller 2 with better production.

 

[The Ozzman]

Demolition is underrated. Definitely.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Yep. With the exception of Painkiller, it's probably their best album released after Screaming for Vengeance. Wimps can't stand the slightest bit of alt metal influence.

Defenders of the Faith?

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Drops off too much after The Sentinel, and it has the worst drumming in any Priest album.

 

[SentinelSlain]

Yeah, I love the "sound" on that album and The Sentinel, but the later songs are pretty shit.

 

[crimsonfloyd]

Ya'll are crazy, Defenders of Faith is an absolutely killer album.

 

[SentinelSlain]

Heavy Duty, Loves Bites and Defenders of the Faith are all really weak songs. Love Bites being the closest to ok.

Love all three of those songs.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Heavy Duty/title track are totally retarded arena rock. I would accept that as a valid opinion from a lot of people, but not you.

 

[SentinelSlain]

Actually, Heavy Duty is ok, but the title track is a disappointing none song.

What, because I like Burzum I can't also like Heavy Duty?

 

[The Butt]

Don't even bother. HB is retarded.
