It's a toss up between several for me. I couldn't choose between their 2 best: Painkiller and Sad Wings. Sad Wings is a masterpiece and considering they recorded it on a tiny budget. However, Painkiller was the most metal album they did and it's a pure slab of brilliance.
Notables: Stained Class, Hell bent, British Steel, Defenders

...and also...
My vote goes to Painkiller...after their reunion, lots of my friends worshipped them (and still do), so I lost interest in them, until one day I got Painkiller into my hands. This album slays. ALOT!

I might be picky but that's Stained Class, not Stained Glass, the mistake is everywhere on the internet Hehe.
My vote would change every day between Sad Wings of Destiny, Stained Class, Screaming, Defenders and Painkiller, I love them all for different reasons.
Mmmm let's get original then, here's one vote for Sin After Sin, their most underrated record by far!

At this very moment it is "Sad Wings.." but other are "Stained Class", 'Killing Machine/Hell Bent...", "Defenders of the Faith" and "Painkiller".

Oops! I'm kind of a newbie Judas Priest fan. That's the only album (pre-Turbo) that I don't have yet.I might be picky but that's Stained Class, not Stained Glass, the mistake is everywhere on the internet
Any Reason 'Hell Bent For Leather' isn't on the list???
Just happens to be my fave along with Sin After Sin.

It is. It's just referred to by it's appropriate title of 'Killing Machine'.
Thanks! ... Learn something everyday. To clear this up who do not own a copy of 'Rockdetector's A-Z of Powermetal'
... 'Killing Machine' (CBS 32 UK) was the title of the UK release while it was released the same year (1978) in the US as 'Hell Bent For Leather' (Columbia 128 USA) with an extra track. PMR

I have to disagree. I would say Sad Wings is their creative peak, what with songs like Epitaph, Prelude, and Victim of Changes (interesting songwriting, IMO). I think Sin After Sin continued the same sort of feel they had on Sad Wings, but not as much, creatively. Though that's not to say Sin After Sin and Stained Class aren't amazing albums.
Personally, Sad Wings is my favorite. All the songs are superb.

Stained Class for me, based solely upon the greatest song every written in metal history... Beyond the Realms of Death!

I voted for Jugulator. It was the Ripper era that got me into the band ... most Notably the '98 Live Meltdown album ... dare to be different

Painkiller for me, and I'm glad to see it toping the pole.
I think it's one of the best metal albums ever released, sure, their older stuff are timeless but this one came out of nowhere and still kicks ass.

I hate wiener dogs. Dreadful creatures.
I actually really like Jugulator and Demolition and then went backwards. I got into Priest in the mid nineties when i was about 14 to 16 time period so I missed alot and had to back track.
