Rank the Judas Priest studio albums

Stormwatch said:
Yes, of course. One of them is actually called "Unleashed In The East". You, being an expert on everything will know that?
I'll have to try and find this "Priest In The East" album you like so much.

Don't be a retard. The Japanese full version is entitled "Priest In The East." In fact, that's what it's commonly referred to as.
 
I've put off posting on this because with Priest being in the top three of my all time favorite metal bands of all genre's combined, it just seems like this is an impossible list to compose. They are all excellent in their own way. But what the hell, I'll give it a try:
Screaming For Vengeance
Killing Machine
Stained Class
Rocka Rolla
Defenders Of The Faith
Sad Wings of Destiny
Sin After Sin
British Steel
Point of Entry
Painkiller
Demolition
Ram It Down
Turbo
Jugulator

I still haven't been able to fully integrate Angel Of Retribution into the list yet even though I've listened to it a bunch of times. Guess I'm going to have to spin it a few more times before it completely becomes a full fledged member of the Priest family of albums.

Also I've decided to keep the live albums separate (just doesn't seem appropriate mixing them with the studio albums):
Priest in the East
Live in London
Priest Live
98 Live Meltdown

Oh, SOOOO sorry. I don't know much about obscure Japanese records, because I'm not fucking Japanese, or a twat like you. In fact, I've never heard "Unleashed In the East "called Priest In THe East, despite reading metal magazines for about 15 years.
So fuck you, you French named arse.

Sad Wings of Destiny is easily their finest work to date, followed closely by Stained Class. I've always fancied Painkiller to be just a tad overappreciated, but that's me.
