@EspaDa I went back to look at the Judas Priest discography ranking thread and the only people that put Defenders of the Faith above Stained Class were you, @Baroque and @crimsonfloyd iirc. Defenders got BTFO'd, ranked 8th, meanwhile Stained ranked 2nd.
Just thought that was interesting since you acted like my position here was the crazy one lmao.
Also I forgot you had this dogshit take at the time:
This shit made me laugh all over again:

I'd keenly do a JP discography ranking one more time; I'm much more competent nowadays than I was back then as far as their music is concenred.
But I maintain my view that Sin After Sin is their worst 70s release. That's absolutely true. The tracks on that album are hit or miss.
It would be sth like this now:
1. Sad Wings of Destiny
2. Painkiller
3. Defenders of the Faith
4. Firepower
5. Stained Class

Yes, it is. "Beyond the Realms of Death" is a fantastic track but it's not so great that it ruins the entirety of Stained Class by making everything else sound bad by comparison. That's utterly and totally retarded.
Also how you have this position while simultaneously thinking Defenders of the Faith is one of the band's best even though you could argue that all the weak tracks on that album have a similar tainting effect is beyond me.
1. Sad Wings of Destiny
2. Sin After Sin
3. Stained Class
4. Killing Machine
5. Rocka Rolla

Where's Painkiller on your list? Rocka Rolla in 5th? Come on, man, don't be pretentious.
DotF is one of their best cause its strongest tracks are one of their strongest cuts in their whole discography, whereas on Stained Class there is only one track aspiring to that title - Beyond the Realms of Death.

Definitely up there. Definitely top 10.
Ha! You're accusing me of being pretentious as you say hilariously stupid shit like Sin After Sin is their worst 70's album? You must be trolling...
Rocka Rolla is an awesome album, definitely not their worst album by any stretch of the imagination, but it's also EASILY the weakest 70's album they did. There's nothing pretentious about this basic observation.
Straight up a bullshit statement lmao. Like I already said, Stained Class' side B is one of their strongest sides ever laid down and Defenders of the Faith has one of the worst side B's by contrast.

Really cool The Cure worship. Its a little more on the lo-fi cold wave kinda feel that Faith and Pornography had and more emphasis on synth work.

Okay, Rocka Rolla might be inferior to Sin After Sin, but the latter comes close second if we're talking about the worst JP 70's album. I listened to Sin yesterday and it's so inconsistent. And I fell asleep while listening to Last Rose of Summer! Not even kidding. It might have been my fatigue after work, though. On a different note, Dissident Aggressor is one of their best songs ever. Raw Deal has a great ending. Here Come the Tears is also kind of epic. I used to like Starbreaker but it's a pretty boring song considering it lasts almost 5 minutes. In general, I gave the album 4/5 on RYM. It's definitely worse than Stained Class. Today I'm going to listen to Killing Machine and I will give you my verdict.
What are your thoughts on Take on the World?
