Favourite Judas Priest Album (lyrics, metal, rock, cd, cd player)

**Urban Hatemonger** · 05-24-2006, 07:00 AM

Because i`ve been giving metal such a hard time lately i`ll do this to show i`m not totally against it

I`ll vote for Killing Machine myself for the simple reason it`s their most diverse album , plus it`s really the first album that was a hint of things to come.
In my opinion this album shaped 80s metal.

I've been re-listening to all my priest stuff over the past few months.. because i found myself wondering why i thought there new album was so great. Now i've been listening to 'Sad Wings of Destiny' and "Rocka Rolla' many times a week.. and sometimes many times a day, as they are next to each other in my cd player.

there new album i love because its softer mental. Finally the lyrics changed a fair bit.. but Hoffards voice did not.

so i went with Rocka Rolla its the most Classic Rock sounding...and i like my classic rock.

Interesting choice considering they practically disown it.

I have a video of them singing a couple of songs off it on TV around 74/75 before they got their studs & leather gimmick.

It`s quite funny seeing Rob Halford with long hair singing in a kaftan & KK Downing wearing a fedora.

Does anyone know if Judas Priest will perform live on the VH1 Rock Honors show that is airing on the 31st?

Yeah, I think they are. I'm sure i saw that on their website.

I voted Painkiller, although they have lots of brilliant albums.

Painkiller is my favorite.

British Steel being second.

Theres a few albums up there I haven't heard, and can someone get me Painkiller? Pretty please.

For now Screaming For Vengeance is just awesome.

New rites of a Vedic sun to attend the blue horizon. Prevails flight resplendent, sails the shrine effulgent windship. Stillness breathes apex supreme - I walk toward the mountain. Crowns the sovereic rite to freedom. Shored the origin forms to a ground accede. Axiom core of the light shrine flight to shining. Glows serene to attenuate the space and time.
