Judas Priest - Painkiller
[Lyrics]
Faster than a bullet
Terrifying scream
Enraged and full of anger
He's half man and half machine
Rides the Metal Monster
Breathing smoke and fire
Closing in with vengeance soaring high
He is the Painkiller
This is the Painkiller
Planets devastated
Mankind's on its knees
A saviour comes from out the skies
In answer to their pleas
Through boiling clouds of thunder
Blasting bolts of steel
Evils going under deadly wheels
He is the Painkiller
This is the Painkiller
Faster than a lazer bullet
Louder than an atom bomb
Chromium plated boiling metal
Brighter than a thousand suns
Flying high on rapture
Stronger free and brave
Nevermore encaptured
They've been brought back from the grave
With mankind ressurrected
Forever to survive
Returns from Armageddon to the skies
He is the Painkiller
This is the Painkiller
Wings of steel Painkiller
Deadly wheels Painkiller
He is the painkiller
This is the painkiller (2x)
Pain
Pain
Killer
Killer (2x)
Can't stop the Painkiller
Pain

This is like, final boss music
except bosses arent painkillers.. theyre pain-bringers
+Shredsum but we kill them therefore we kill the pain.
u right
you fight with the final boss in a battle stage in Brutal Legend (even it is a year distance between the comment and response still)
Ironic how this is the final song in Rock Band 2
Priest's heaviest, most brutal and best song.
Try the jagulator album. That was one of the two Priest albums without Rob. Tim Owens was the singer for that album along
the Demolition album which was his final album with the band before Rob returned in 2003.
Maybe not the heaviest, but definitelly the fastest
@@pocoloco753 Ram it down is the fastest.
Other songs on painkiller, and jugulator can even get into thrash metal territory and painkiller has some speed metal songs including this one
@@pocoloco753 Painkiller is rather slow compared to tracks like Metal Meltdown,Jugulator,All Guns Blazing,Leather Rebel,Dead Meat,Ram it Down,Death Row
Remember kids, this album came out just weeks after the band was in the trial of their lives for the ridiculous accusation of having one of their songs be the cause of 2 teens suicides. They were rightfully acquitted & this masterpiece dropped on us. ALL killer, NO filler album. What a response!
The PAINKILLER doesn't cause suicides, he kills all his victims himself.
Painkiller was written before that, but because of the legal trouble they held on to it until the trial was over
Rusty Kuntz am surprised suicidal tendencies suicidal failure (1983) didn't cause anyone to attempt to commit suicide although I could be wrong
Don't forget about Metallica's Fade to Black
Seriously such a beautiful and purely metal FUCK YOU that move was.

That drummer's a legend.
Yup Scott Travis was a Damn Monster easily in the Top 10 Greatest Metal Drummers of All Time along with the other greats
When your children ask you what Heavy Metal is, you play them this song and tell them if they can't handle this they can't handle anything else. This is Metal at it's absolute purest.
TheKane987245 Amen
I mean ive just recently gotten to appreciate this song. The vocals at frist can be a bit mucch for someone. After you let it sink in though its fucking killer.
TheKane987245 Disown them if they can't handle it.
It took me forever to give the whole song a chance i never liked high pitched vocals with heavy music didn't think it made sense but god once i got used to it so worth it incredible fucking song pure eargasmic guitar solo PERFECTION. Greatness epitomized.
It's like death they took me awhile to get into coz the vocals but once i did i was so happy i did. Most death metal TO ME is stupid and completely indecipherable but chuck schuldiner of death while he does have really harsh vocals they're easy to understand what he's saying still. And no I'm not comparing the 2 bands just saying sometimes a band with amazing and incredible talent gets overlooked because of vocals but once you get into em the musicianship is just instrumentally astonishing and satisfying to the ears. Just amazing.
I was a huge Iron Maiden fan growing up and never got into Judas Priest because I thought of them as competition. Having grown up and matured I can now say without a shadow of a doubt that this might be the greatest heavy metal song ever written.
"One can have more than just one favourite". :)
Everyone who's mature considers Judas Priest to be better than Iron Maiden.
Yes, it is hands down the best Heavy Metal song ever!
@@FearsomeVoid Holy shit, I just looked it up and Iron Maiden has sold 130 million albums, 5 million more than Metallica.
But Priest has sold 50 million, beating Megadeth (38 mil) and Slayer (20 mil).
And here's the really baffling part: how has Motorhead sold only 708,000 albums worldwide? Every metalhead knows them!
used to listen to painkiller on a walkman just before a rugbygame in the tight 5. if that plays in your head, you dont feel pain. the other team does.
Now this is good metal. It’s hard as hell, quite complex, and you can actually hear the separate instruments as well as discern the vocals.
Yup. This is pure heavy metal
🤘
not really bass.
Must agree, not enough bass, but still, an amazing show of vocal and instrumental mastery.
Only when you wear headphones. Or have a Dolby Speaker in your phone.
@ChronoWind qq
What makes this song great is that Scott Travis really gave Priest a kick in the ass. He's a great drummer.
Absolutely true. The main reason why I love this this song so much is because of the awesome drums.
This is the most metal song of alltime!
Though its not my personal favorite, you are goddamn right!
Love it!!! Rocks!!!
Not on the periodic table too.
+Anmol Kaushik
I must've missed the point where metal -> chemistry jokes were funny.
Yes it is dude :D
drummer, singer, bassist, two guitarists... perfection
All definitions entries about heavy metal at wikipedia should be deleted and include just a link to this song.
comment win!
+Master Voland That you can actually propably do and get away with.
Totally agree, this song and Disciple by Slayer are everything metal is about
Yep! Well, this one, Holy Diver, The Trooper, Master of Puppets, Paranoid, We're Not Gonna Take It, Stairway To Heaven, and Raining Blood.
Ian Hoswell well Led Zepplin is more of classic rock in my opinion
best guitar solo of music history
Rob's voice makes this song show it's true power.
LMAO, this whole song is raw power.
My step dad was in a priest tribute band, and played Glenn's solos and the other dude did KK'S. They played from Maine to Texas, and it was really fucking awesome for a few years. He practiced this song for fucking hours, everyday until it was on point.
He had the Hamer and the other guy had a v guitar
👍👏👏👏👏
Put this song on and my 2 year old started going nuts running around and throwing things and laughing I was so proud
Faster than a bullet.
We are all proud!!!
one day later, your mom was taken away by DCF ;)
One week later, where the fuck did mom take my daughter off to and WHERE THE FUCK IS MY PCP
My 5 year old loves a few judas priest songs already. Ram it down was the first one.
Songs like this never get old or go out of date
Lyle Sargent metel songs never grew out of date
Lyle Sargent 33 years later still blasting this wth 3000 watt car stereo
Lyle Sargent yes, truly a classic
Lyle Sargent yes exactly, a whole album is immortal, never cant stop this, noone cant stop the Painkiller!
King Diamond “no one *can’t* stop the Painkiller”. So in other words your saying that you can stop the Painkiller...think about what you just said.
2:41 sends goosebumps down my back every time!
3:10 gives me goosebumps every time.
Whole album is a masterpiece lol
Slayer: Reign in Blood
Metallica: Master of Puppets
Priest: That's cute
This solo is INSANE! Just bloody INSANE!!!!! Best solo I ever heard!
1:40
"Faster than a lazer bullet
Louder than an atom bomb
Chromium plated boiling metal
Brighter than a thousand suns"
Words cannot describe how great that sounds.
We need this
This song is a fucking masterpiece
It's so metal it brings a tear to my eye every time.
This song made me appreciate rock music. Concise intelligible lyrics that tell a story and amazing skill with the instruments by the band members.
Its metal not rock...
@@pencil1751 Metal is an offshoot of rock though... it grew out of rock.
@@ImperatorGrausam Metal is a hybridization of classical and rock, not necessarily a pure divergence from rock
@@ImperatorGrausam it branched off from blues and classical and yes rock but mostly blues and classical
It still blows my mind that this was on fucking NFL Madden 10. That game had an OUTSTANDING heavy metal/rock soundtrack for no good reason.
logicalfallacy234 I love when sports games have little gems, The Bigs had Pantera, and I'm pretty sure Anthrax hahahaha
logicalfallacy234 I know right?? this, Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath and fucking Pantera!
I miss those days. Nowadays sports games never have metal. Just Hip Hop, Pop and a few mainstream rock songs
I have been searching the comments to remember what video game soundtrack this was one. Thank you bruddah
I'm sure it's not just me who gets legit goosebumps listening to this...
Also the vocals surprised me the first time I listened to this, I had only heard his vocals in the style of "living after midnight", "hell bent for leather", etc... I would have to suck helium to get through singing this song in this range, and I was a first soprano in my high school choir. It's impressive.
it's a cure for goosebumps in my case
The Big Four: Look at us. We're making the most thrashing, heaviest music ever!
Judas Priest: Hold my beer.
EXACTLY
OMG, most ignorant comment ever xDD Pathetic
Pretty sure Big Four came after and all list Judas as a inspiration
Aaron Scott Judas isn't super heavy
Isn't Judas priest from the UK? And the big four is only American. ( could be wrong )
The Doom Slayer would totally have this in his IPod .
I can just see him plugging it into the largest set of speakers, hitting play, and just going savage on Hell
HE
IS
THE
PAIN KILLER!
Also Daniel Garner.
Ew, Bethesda.
@@analanus3131 no id software made DOOM Bethesda just published it
The sweep arpeggio at 2:10 is fucking mental. The entire song is mental holy shit
I discovered this song in middle school ish. 10+ years later, I still think it's one of the most perfect metal songs ever created, or songs in general.
Perfect for DOOM
Yep
I prefer this for Motorsport Manager. (Particularly for the Guildford Grand Prix.)
I'm sure this album is part of Doom's DNA in some way. I can imagine the Id Guys listened to this a lot based on the Doom theme song (main riff of this and the Doom theme are eerily similar)
Saul Goodman, Attorney Lots of metal songs and bands influenced DOOM like Metallica, Pantera and Judas Priest.
e1m1 sounds like this, but little changed
this song is 100% metal
Heavy metal
@@saint_gb5845 10,000%
7000 Tons of Metal
In my 18 years as a human being this is hands dowm the most metal and one of the most god written songz man has made
Grammer much
Dumbass
Masta shake10
lmaooo the irony...
you meant *grammar, right?
Be sure to check out the cover by the band Death and then check out Death's album Symbolic. The song 1000 Eyes is a good first listen from them.
This is the most metal song I've heard
The Death Version is far more metal
+Nate Landherr not really, but great cover.......
I always liked it more
Nah, no where near as good. It's alright I guess
Because it is.
This is a beast of a song.
Almost 30 years old, and still kicks more ass than modern metal!!😀
Just a warning to anyone listening: there's a facemelting guitar solo around 2:10 - 2:15 that goes on for a good while, so mind your volume if you don't think you can withstand the power.
I got my shit cranked all the way up and it still ain't loud enough!
*immediately turns up volume*
Until 3:38
when I saw "facemelting guitar solo", I immediately thought of School of Rock :)
My face survived without too much damage... But I should have been given a "flip the fuck out alert," because I just broke several windows. (Good thing I wasn't at home!)
...PURE UNDILUTED METAL....
If I could define metal in one song, it would be this
Johsty Bach Hell yeah! Right up there but how bout Damage Inc..Metallica
Hodassa Yentl Lifschitz
That would be how i would describe Thrash, right behind War Ensemble - Slayer
Johsty Bach Dude, how about holy wars by Megadeth?
+Wurdox that is another classic metal song. One of the greats.
Sabbath bloody Sabbath by black Sabbath
This song has the most impressive and epic vocals i have ever heard. Singer is so talented his voice is so unique especially for metal. Such an amazing song.
I wanna make a video game where this plays during the final boss battle
Too late, Brutal Legend did it :v
+anok98 oh yeah! I forgot about that
Rock Band 2, technically, it's the toughest song.
Doom 1 has similar Level 1 song...
Brutal Legend my dude
Impossible song... As I rember, first heard it back in 1991 and that was mind blowing. Now too.
This song is badass enough, but the sound (production wise) just makes it even more phenomenal.
The more I listen to Judas Priest the more I think Glen Tipton is the greatest metal guitarist ever. He’s got his own style, tone and his playing is so precise. You can easily tell when Downing is playing and I say that with no ill intentions
legends of the metal
1:09 Emos going under DEADLY WHEEEEEEEEELS
Hammer Dev
Thank you
im offended
You are gold
but i love midwest emo bros
@@vcxz4009 tf is date
Tipton and Downing, the best twin guitars of all time. No arguments.
I got into Iron Maiden a couple years ago, which was sort of my "gateway drug", if you will, into heavy metal.
And for a while, if I'm honest, I still didn't really "get into" heavy metal. I don't know why. I wouldn't have called myself a heavy metal fan. I just kind of liked Iron Maiden and maybe a couple Motorhead songs. I think I even tried to get into Priest, but I think I ended up clicking on one of their less-great songs for whatever reason. I forget which. So I wasn't impressed.
And then, one day earlier this year, I saw Painkiller in my recommended. And I thought, meh, might as well check it out.
I was half asleep when I clicked it. As soon as I heard that absolutely insane drumming, I was no longer half asleep.
The guitar riffs, the drumming, Halford's absolutely incredible vocal range. Everything about this song was fucking incredible.
I think that week, I probably listened to it on repeat a few hundred times.
This was the one song that truly got me into heavy metal. Haven't looked back since. \m/
Ron Zombie said it well in the good docu 'metal a journey'; “Metal fans love it forever. No one goes, ‘Yeah I was really into Slayer one summer.’ I’ve never met that guy. I’ve only met the guy that’s got ‘Slayer’ carved across his chest.” Not saying you're into that certain band but through the decades I found that you may like 1 or 2 things at first but eventually come to love all the bands as a whole without realizing it first. As a teen I wasn't into slayer but now I do find myself listening to several of their songs which I think are great and slowly started listening to more of their songs. This is how you sometimes start with something mild and slowly end up loving the entire genre and being a metal fan; the point is you always were but you just didn't realize it yet and once you do you never let it go. I found out about this album the exact same way and now find myself a Priest fan.
Do you need someone to talk about it ?
Need introspection, feel insecure ?
There a qualified peoples for that. CZcams comments section is not.
(Tldrbtw)
I personaly got into avenged iron maiden but got into newer stuff like avenged sevenfold which in turn got me into slipknot and now im into all 80s-current metal guess sitting in the car with my dad got the metal into me
Forgot the comma between avenged and iron maiden*
The solos themselves were incredible!! Wish Iron Maiden could play solos on this level of Painkiller.
You may be metal but you will never be as metal as this!!!
I read someone’s comment that said that they’ve never heard Rob Halford pull this off live. If that’s true then my theory is that he gave it everything he had in this one take and it was so incredibly awesome and powerful that it altered his vocal cords so that the song’s epicness could never be duplicated.
There are actually a few different videos of them performing this live on CZcams
Saw them live at Download in Melbourne, Australia in 2019. I can confirm that Rob Halford can indeed pull this off live
Rob performed this one with Baby Metal. Sound so funny. This is the pain kivor😂😂😂
I think I can safely say this is the most Metal song ever.
The Anthem of Metal, ladies and gentlemen. Painkiller - Judas Priest
+Dragon King you're right man, this song is really the definition of Heavy Metal
Or Black Sabbath
Any thing Ozzy cuz he basically invented metal but yeah this is heavy af
Orgasm start at 2.15
Go to the doctor and he will say to you, Take this song as a medicine and some day you will get better.
Definition of Metal.
For some odd reason this always reminded me of Power Rangers
+JazKW347 reminds me of DOOM
LOOOOOOL it fits!
"faster than a bullet! GO GO power rangers!"
***** ahahhahah YESSS
Lmfao that's exactly what I thought, that's pretty good.
This is definitely the #1 best metal song ever created
Excellent song, the painkiller who is the hero on the artwork is what we need in 2020!!!
One of the best and famous drum intros ever!
everything about this song kicks ass
even my dog loves this
Wayne Rye ye your dog is cool
I'm not surprised to be fair
Really.
My dog is dead
@@optimoosejones9493 F
The most metal song of all time.
ChronoWind That Master of Puppets cover is alright, but this is far more metal.
ChronoWind C'mon, let's be real. It's not. It's fun to be a hipster every once in a while, but c'mon.
ChronoWind Alright, you listen to value brand Master of Puppets then.
ChronoWind I'm only being half serious anyways. Besides I don't even hate Overkill. I was ragging on that song. I much prefer the album Horrorscope.
ChronoWind not even close bud
My landlord evicted all the other tennants because they complained when i played this song too loud 🤘
BlotSven666 I had this blasting in class today and everyone around me asked me to turn it down.

What about iron maiden
@@willt2007 they are thrash not heavy
Oh yeah , have you heard
BARBIE GIRL
I'm new to Judas Priest. Holy hell, this is brutal and unrelenting 😈🤘
I was in my school during lunch listening to this. The girl I like came over and asked what I was listening to. I passed her an AirPod and played this. She likes me now.....
Did you get with her?
The best guitar solo ever! The best riffs ever! The best drums ever! This is a masterpiece.
My boss hated me until I showed him this song. I'm now I'm a position where I can fire him.
My first time hearing this and I just keep getting chills. This kicks ass!!
Probably the archetypal metal song. Like, pure by definition.
That Riff is immortal...
Theres not enough talk about the opening drums and the guitar screech, its absolutely one of my favorite openings to a song!!
That intro tho.. 😈
This song kept playing even though I lost a wifi connection for a bit, tells a lot about the power of song!
Scott Travis is a badass 🤘🤘🤘
Total, since the Racer X years 🤘🤘🤘
Remember when this came out!! Put them back on the map!! They needed to do something! They were not putting out good priest at the time and I was shocked when I heard the first riffs!! Almost fell out of my chair,!! And it kept going on! The whole thing was eventually going to be an ICCONIC album!!! Nailed it big time!!
This never gets old... Masterpiece
One of the best metal songs ever made.
Knight Solaire has good taste in music...

Alright, great song either way.
Best metal song ever IMO.
It has everything
It almost sounds based on the lyrics that the Painkiller is Jesus
Its clearly a combination of Ghost Rider, Silver Surfer, Jesus, and Frieza.
@@smh9902 DId I happen to mention that in this form my power is over a million ?!?!
Jesus is pretty metal
@@ShaddySoldier Yeah man, it's awesome. A warrior king who knows he will have his day to bring a planet to its knees. Nearly indiscriminately killing if it weren't for the chosen few, and most likely with his voice of thunder will bring back the remembered. Yet a selected number go to heaven and the rest rebuild the world after the greatest war called Armageddon... Sounds epic as hell and if that isn't a painkiller than idk what.
@@BlackStar-oh9lp well I mean the theology is a bit off in that but basically.no one gets to go to heaven until after armageddon and the only people who survive that would be the followers
Best intro to any song ever!!!
O heavy metal genuíno. Simplesmente matador. Você tem que ouvir.
He...is...THE DOOM SLAYER
I first heard this song on rockband as a young kid and instantly fell in love
Glenn's solo was voted "Solo most likely to curl Sinead O'Connor's hair" by Guitar World back in '91. The sweep picking at 2:10... Mother of God!
just love how the monuments of greed and money are melting when true faith of metal rises on the album cover^^
I've been playing guitar for about 15 years. This song was like a final boss in a video game to me back when I was learning how to play. It has almost everything to test a guitar player's skills.
*This song is the stuff of fucking legend.*
Its amazing how you can hear a song for the first time in 20+ years and still remember the lyrics
Could you help the rest of us out and drop the lyrics cuz this one is definitely the best quality version of this song.
@@carlosmark3214 Look it up.
Wish we had more bands playing like this instead of core genre bands and stuff
Tyler 1:09 EMOS GOING UNDER DEADLY WHEELS
Awesome.
Nowadays there a lots of bands the going the classic direction of Rock music
They sure took a step in the harder direction when this album was released.
Just as epic as the first day I heard it. This masterpiece will be melting faces one thousand years from now.
Loving the speed metal!!!! Now my favorite song by Judas Priest
This song is a better painkiller than any other painkiller out there
4:43
The first time I heard this song I thought it was a different singer here.
Because damn, that vocal range!
I'll never get over these drums. Especially the first part. Crazy arms.
Best Quality on You tube, believe me i checked...Peace and Safety...
Probably their heaviest song i ever heard from judas priest!
+Derek Nashkawa maybe you should listen to metal meltdown
Yehhs i have dommtomm its a toss up! :)
Derek Nashkawa
it was a suggestion, not an insult potatohead
Derek Nashkawa The Hellion/Electric Eye is up there too
I think Nostradamus (the song, not the album) and the rest of the Painkiller album are good challengers for this song.
This entire album redefined Judas Priest. Awesome in it's entirety. 🤘
I CANN9T GET THIS LOUD ENOUGH IN MY EARS!!!!!
How can there be people who don't like metal when this exists?
