When I saw Judas Priest in 2018, they played Guardians and Rising From Ruins. I was blown away. I mean I knew the song before, but experiencing it live with all the fire and flames in the background was pure magic 🔥
I love the song ever since at it might as well be my favourite on Firepower.

After Redeemer Priest went on a farewell tour. But the energy Richie brought into the band ignited something.
He brought the fire back 🔥
I cannot thank him enough, because oh boy did they deliver 🤘

Redeemer Of Souls is Judas Priest's first album ever recorded without K.K. Downing.
I can't say I like it much and I think this is Priest's weakest album with Rob. Verdict: 2,5/5
However, esp. thanks to Richie Faulkner, this album contains hints of their next record, oh and what album that would become!

So I have no idea what #Grind is all about but surprisingly I do have a contribution to @vanessawynn 's #GrindayFriday
I remember a friend talking about a Grind'n'Roll band from Austria with the catchy name "3 Tog Nimma Gacken Gwesn" (...I really don't want to translate that name to English, please don't make me).
Anyhow, here is "Nussig im Obgaung":

No, Living Bad Dreams is not the best song on Painkiller. It's a solid metal ballad though.
🎵 Living Bad Dreams
https://song.link/at/i/207178505I know painkiller might be cheesy, lyrics are maybe not Goethe level.
But it is so f*king entertaining, it is heavy metal A-Z. It ticks all my boxes. I never feel bored listening to it. All songs killer.
To me, this album is almost a 5/5. But only almost, I'll give it 4,5 out of 5 shots at glory. -
43/n #JudasPriest #Metaljourney
After an interluding Battle Hymn Judas Priest take one shot at glory (no need for another shot).
Best song on the album, don't @ me.
🎵 One Shot af Glory

There are also slower songs on Painkiller.
And this one ist the best of 'em on the album, maybe even the best song on the album overall:🎵 A Touch of Evil

41/n #JudasPriest #Metaljourney
Did anybody realise by now that I think Painkiller is an above average album?
If you haven't, listen to Between the Hammer & the Anvil because it is the best song on the album!

I just wanted to write that I think that Metal Meltdown is NOT the best song on Painkiller.
But as it is blasting my brain away I realized that I am an idiot, of course it is the best song on Painkiller!🎵 Metal Meltdown by Judas Priest

Without the slightest hint of a doubt, Leather Rebel is the best song on Painkiller!

All Guns Blazing is the best song on Painkiller, and I won't even discuss it!

Hell Patrol is the best song on Painkiller, no question about that!

Here comes the Painkiller!
🎵 #Painkiller
https://song.link/y/4s1gBIVOTtkOh man, Judas Priest turned it up to eleven everywhere with this album.
It is an outstanding album, very different to all the ones before, it's like they bathed in steroids while snorting coke.
A friend of mine always thought that this is a best of album, because there's only killer tracks.
In my opinion, Painkiller is not even the best one on the album.

For the @AqiDrago and @Kitty #DragoAndKittyDarkHeartDare I chose a song today that AqiDrago reminded me of yesterday:

It has hints of Painkiller everywhere. -

Ram it down... RAM IT DOWN! 👊
🎵 Ram It Down
https://song.link/y/v0jVb9TmfRMI love this song!
"Thousands of cars and a million guitars
Screaming with power in the air"I like the idea of a million guitars 🤘
Judas Priest picked up the tempo and aggressiveness with their 1988 release #RamItDown
They also introduced two things:
- drum computers
- telepromptersthe latter due to Rob's serious substance abuse, which took a toll on his memory.
-
Good morning to the loud and the aggressive 🤘

🎵 Devil's Child

I usually don't do YT links, but this is unavoidable, a must see.
Or as YT user @jfk19780 said:
"I'm made of metal" just as he enters the stage - what an absolute king.
https://youtu.be/yMVV_HsHcX0?feature=shared
Sidenote: I am a straight dude, but oh my Glenn Tipton is a 🦊
#TheHellion and #ElectricEye are the best openers to any metal album ever. Period.
The album is of course #ScreamingForVengeance, and it's a cornerstone in the history of #Metal music.

So how good is a half-assed Judas Priest album?
Still good. Very good!
If you are into polished, almost glammy heavy metal with a bit of hair twist, this is a Judas Priest album for you.
It for sure is entertaining, I'll give it 3,5 out of five.

Last one for today on my Judas Priest #Metaljourney: Point Of Entry
This was the first album they recorded on the island of Ibiza.
And like with Rocka Rolla, they were not happy with the outcome.
Rob confessed that they were focused more on the party stuff and less on the songwriting stuff, hence they produced a half-assed album.Well, I like it. And I also like the album art. 🤷♂️

Correction: of course this one is THE sing-along song of the album 👇
🎵 Take On The World
https://song.link/at/i/207178327#Metaljourney trivia:
Rob wrote this song because he wanted something similar as Queen's We Will Rock You
Honestly, I don't like both songs ...and that comes from a die-hard Queen fan.

We are still in the 70s on my Judas Priest #Metaljourney
Next up is the album with two names: Killing Machine and Hell Bent For Leather.
I'll stay with Killing Machine.
IIRC this is the album where Priest went full leather heavy metal.
This one might be the catchiest sing along song on it:
