Greatest Judas Priest Song

[Vegard Pompey]

Breaking the Law is fucking amazing you fools. It's a perfect 80s pop metal song with an iconic-as-fuck opening riff and not that it has any bearing on the song's quality but it's also got metal's greatest music video.

 

[Serjeant Grumbles]

Breaking the Law is fucking amazing you fools. It's a perfect 80s death metal song.

FTFY

 

[CiG]

British Steel is a killer album.

 

[crimsonfloyd]

British Steel is a killer album.

Overall, it's quite strong, but I can't stand The wannabe Kiss anthem "Living After Midnight" (skip it every time) and "You Don't Have to be Old to be Wise" is forgettable. Everything else is very good to great.

Evaluated as a whole, it's not a top 5 Priest album.

 

[CiG]

Evaluated as a whole, it's not a top 5 Priest album.

Agreed.

 

[Master_Yoda77]

I think I can listen to every Judas Priest album up to Painkiller and enjoy it. After that it can all fuck off.

 

[alex76]

That's a lot of fucking albums though! Yeah, every album up through Painkiller ranges from good to godly.

P.S. I actually think British Steel is underrated.

 

[suckerleaf]

Living After Midnight is fucking fantastic.

 

[Master_Yoda77]

I enjoy that song as well. I also really enjoy KISS so yeah.

 

[SentinelSlain]

Yeah after painkiller it's all a bit shit.

I never put living after midnight but it is decent and very good before you've heard it the first million times

Blood Red Skies is a very cool song, a bit like The Rage is.

 

[EspaDa]

I forgot about Reckless. It's one of the best from Turbo! It's a pity drums sound like shit.

After Painkiller there are still some good songs. For example Angel, Prophecy or even there are several nice tracks on their latest, Redeemer of Souls. Cathedral Spires is a nice epic too.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Looooochness, loooochness

 

[The Ozzman]

Angel of Retribution was amazing you faggots

 

[HamburgerBoy]

It was ok. Of all their albums up to that point, it's still probably the second weakest, beating only Jugulator. A few great songs, lots of eh stuff, too long overall.

 

[EspaDa]

Implying that Demolition is better than Jugulator .

 

[The Ozzman]

Implying that Demolition is better than Jugulator .

Demolition is better than Jugulator

 

[Krow]

Redeemer of Souls is the best Priest album since Painkiller.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Demolition is better than Jugulator

Better than Defenders of the Faith as well.

 

[The Ozzman]

Better than Defenders of the Faith as well.

and Painkiller

 

[EspaDa]

Haha, saying that a garbage album is better than DotF and Painkiller is a fucking blasphemy.
