Artist: Judas Priest
Album: Jugulator
Year: 1997
Lyrics:
They have blown away the daylight hours we had
Left a leagcy, a deadly aftermath
We cannot exist in godforsaken lands
As we spiral down into oblivion
Breathing the fumes of fires that they ignite
Losing ground and we are all just losing sight
We shall never see another setting sun
Time to rise up and ascend, the end has come
No more willpower
Choked by hell fire
Darkness above
Blackening out the sun
Gripped by steel claws
Corrosion eating us
So before we're all devoured
Time to rise up and retire
In cathedral spires
Watching as the world expires
From up amongst the clouds
In cathedral spires
No names
No graves
No prayers
Can save us
Ashes to dust
Doomsday's upon us now
It cannot be stopped
Genocide all is lost
Oh! We're so tired
Time to rise up and conspire
In cathedral spires
Watching as our world expires
From up above the clouds
In cathedral spires
Jaws of corruption
Swallow us as one
Consuming every nation
Evoke resistance getting none
Complete disintegration
No good to defend
There can be but one outcome
We are no more - ascend
Vaporized fury
Offers no sanctuary
Oh! We're so tired
Time to rise up and retire
In cathedral spires
Watching as the world expires
From up amongst the clouds
In cathedral
In cathedral spires
Oh! We're so tired
Watching the world expire
Time that we retire
Up in cathedral spires
Oh! We're so tired
Watching the world expire
Time that we retire
Up in cathedral spires
Oh! We're so tired
Watching the world expire
Time that we retire
Up in cathedral spires
Oh! We're so tired
Watching the world expire
Time that we retire
Up in cathedral spires
How can Judas Priest ignore this album. It’s a classic, one of their best. With this being one of their best songs.
Rob is butthurt that Tim outdid him. To this day Rob still claims while he is friends with Owens, Rob has not listened to this album or Demolition. Rob says both albums don't sound like Judas Priest and it's not Judas Priest without him in it. Rob has the same ego level as Ozzy when he was fired from Black Sabbath. This album was actually my first Judas Priest album that I was able to find a used copy in near perfect condition for $13 on Etsy.
Sadly I do not see this album ever getting a remaster and re-release despite Owens stating back in 2018 he wants to re-record both of his Priest albums. On Priest's website you can buy a mega box set for $500 that includes every album, including Jugulator and Demolition and also includes every single live show album. If Rob didn't have an ego like Ozzy this album could have very well been on it's second or even third remaster release by now. Speaking of Ozzy, most people think he is the best for Sabbath and people couldn't be anymore wrong, Tony Martin was Sabbath's best singer. If you have not already listened to them go listen to the eternal idol, Headless Cross, TYR, Cross Purposes and Forbidden.
I've got all their discography. Also all the lives and the best of
I suppose this is simillar situation as with Iron Maiden and Blaze-Era albums, "The X Factor" (seriously, one of the best IM albums), and "Virtual XI" but even more extreme
If this isn't played at my funeral, I'm not going
The ultimate end of the world song.
Its my brothers end of the world song, as he just passed a few months ago. He found this album randomly cuz of the cover art!!! Haha he was a funny fucker. Love this album thru the end, perfect ending song as well.
@@pnwlife8593 So sad, may your brother rest in peace!
@@unromanoarecareanaveragero8275 thank u. He was so funny. Fucking LOVED Judas priest. It's why I listen to them now. Rest In paradise J!!!!!!!!
@@pnwlife8593 Hey, you can listen to KK’s Priest. It was founded by KK Downing and the singer is exactly Tim Owens!
@@unromanoarecareanaveragero8275 what's that? I didn't understand can you explain that again??
Overall, the song is good, but that first verse...that first verse is simply breathtaking!
Don't care what anyone says, this album is amazing and this is one of my favorite Judas Priest songs!
Masterpiece of a track from a terminally underrated masterpiece of an album.
Ripper is my favorite metal vocalist of all time. And yet all my favorite work he's done, whether it's with Priest, Yngwie Malmsteen or Iced Earth, just keeps getting swept under the rug...Ripper just doesn't get his due, man. It's bullshit.
@@MaelstromTheDemon Being one of the best heavy metal vocalists,i dont get why is he so disrespected!
@@gebackeneketzer5267 Right?! Priest won't acknowledge his output, Iced Earth gave him the most disrespectful firing in metal history, Yngwie...well, was Yngwie, and Since then his projects have been so short lived. I don't get the disrespect!!
@@MaelstromTheDemon
Metallica firing of Mustaine was far worse. Let's be realistic.
@@Vazcular Thing is Mustaine was a complete dick at that point and clearly had drug/alcohol problems. Owens I'm willing to bet was nothing but professional as fuck in all his bands.
This album is great. Ripper is so good here. In some parts of the song he also sounded so much like Halford that I could've been fooled to believe that it was him. Ripper doesn't get many compliments for his time in Judas Priest but he should.
Agree it's fucking awesome
He is awesome! Check him with KK Downing ! Yep they are working together now !
KK’s Priest is going to have Ripper on vocals and i cant fuckin wait!
Tim is a BEAST bro
I think Ripper was a victim of being a replacement for Rob Halford. The fans of JP would always be making comparisons. I think Ripper Owens was great in his own right and I think his 2nd album (Demolition) was even better. He deserves far more credit than what he got.
7:00 - 8:29 is my favorite part. I could seriously listen to it all day.
Am I the only one that hears Rob Halford, Phil Anselmo, Dave Mustaine and Layne Staley singing in a quartet on this track xD
Kojo ~ It is the Talent around Rob and the Band you hear.
Phil may consider giving vocals, however not going to happen with Halford , ~ FIGHT~ (Not the Band- But Rob Kicking Phil's ass)..
Also at this time Mustaine with all respect , he was shitting bricks of gold -- Making PLATINUM gold plated shit!
Also explain "Layne Staley " R.I.P.--- With respect I say this !
You hear Ripper Owens , latter with Iced Earth - and a regroup of Judest Priest!
You also hear Joe Lynn Turner~ Deep Purple and Rainbow Front man !
@@TheThanandros pretty sure the guy you're responding to already knows all that you're trying to say. We're here because we love tim owens.
Me too, but besides those I heard axl rose too
Rob Halford isn't in this album at all, its Ripper Owens who sings it and one other album
@@theguywhoasked2520 No shit!
The Ripper has a Turbo powered Scream of vengeance. 🤘🤘🤘
Pitchfork Matt The Halford is better, but the ripper is pretty good.
They’re both great, let’s leave it at that.
Halford has better pitch but Ripper definitely has more power in his voice
RIP Notre Dame's Cathedral Spires
The whole album was way ahead of its time. When I first heard the detuned guitar riffs, I thought it was the heaviest stuff on earth.
I hope KK’s Priest includes this one in their live set, that would be amazing, the finale in special is so dramatic that it would be the jewel of that set list.
AGREED!!!!🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
When I first heard this album I had no idea Halford wasn't on it.
When i first heard Ripper i thought he's the same guy that was singing on Painkiller.
yeah me too
jdudeoes haha same
It’s not as drastic of a voice change as Bruce Dickinson to Blaze Bayley.
Ripper Owens is fucking awesome... all the talent without any of the pretentious bs.
Doesn't matter what singer is singing or what lp it is,,,,,,,THIS IS ONE OF PRIESTS GREATEST SONGS EVER!!
It´s amazing how he almost meets Rob´s voice; this is Judas Priest!!! Tim deserves more credits!!!
This and bullet train are amazing tracks off the lp
Blood Stained and Dead Meat probably have the most punishing, menacing riffs...
Yeah bullet train and this are the two best tracks
Chills... this song is flawless... this whole album is underrated IMO... Classic in my book♥️👊🏻👊🏻
One of the best fucking intros EVER.
Best song from the second best Priest album. Tim... We salute You, we appreciate You. We appreciate others too. Good job.
What's your pick for the first best priest album?
you don't get heavy metal like this anymore, I miss this kind of metal, now everything's core
Amazing chorus. Amazing song. Amazing album.
I've become addicted to this song, there is so much going on, it's a real trip.
It really is, these 9 minutes pass by in a blink
If I didn't already have this album I would have bought it for this song alone.
Not gonna lie. I just listen to the intro and opening verse on repeat. Awesome
Neo..
One of the best priest albums
Masterpiece!
Fantastic song 💚☘️🇮🇪
they tuned down a whole step on this tour..i didn't realize until I bought the live version and jammed along to it...gave it a little more grit lol
This is one of the best JP songs I ever heard, so POWERFUL, WOW🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥🔥
The intro gives me goosebumps. So beautiful!
This “Ripper” guy was also in Iced Earth.
Was he actually?
Flamin Yong yeah, from like 2004-07
Declaration Day, Hold At All Costs and Hollow Man are my favorites from him in Iced Earth. Barlow and Layne Staley will always be my favorite singers, but Owens tore those songs up 🤘
The Glorious Burden is a beautiful album.
@@Chives5150 It's a glorious album.
Song of the Apocalypse from Judas Priest one of their best hands down
I'm going to buy this album
Good luck when you find it the album may be a little bit more expensive or cheap on the other hand but what was the last good luck on finding it
There's a Judas Priest box sets called 50 years old that's where you will find the jugular album and demolition album all together with all the other freestyle albums combined
@@andrerone8208 I found it and also got a promo copy of Demolition!
I looove this song
I still have this tape! One of their best because Tim carried the band during the return of Metal. Awesome album from beginning to end.
I love this song !
i'm new to this era of Priest- i was really missing out!!
I am so inspired to play instruments... Thank you Judas Priest..
Damn - had this on vinyl and sold it cheaply a long time ago...
Now it's worth hundreds.
priest is kick ass
Priest kicks total ass! Hell yeah
Killer album
ripper with judas priest would of been a huge success if it wasn't for the fact ripper was replacing the metal god rob halford.
leonard kitchen or if he had more input.
#bestsongEVER #yourargumentisinvalid #PRIESTFOREVER
meshuggener667 Just hear me out on this one: 70s Judas Priest
I arrest my case
My favorite Judas Priest song. It's so underrated.
This track deserves more respect
Excellent, amazing performance and song, and singer
This song is prophetic, Yes We're so tired especially if you live in Brazil in pandemic!
Magnificent!
Il a une voix tellement magnifique ... nostalgie de mon enfance😢😍
Oui elle l'est
I will never compare singers in a situation like this. I will say I'm glad it happened because Halford gave us PAINKILLER then left and gave us TWO, FIGHT , HALFORD, PANTERA/HALFORD- LIGHT COMES OUT OF BLACK, ETC.
I will also say RIPPER OWENS HELD HIS OWN \m/
Ripper Priest gave us a ton of killer tunes a
Tim “Ripper” Owens is one of the most underrated metal vocalists of all time. He sounds nearly identical to Rob Halford on this track.
He and Blaze Bailey really had the misfortune of following Halford and Dickinson, in any other comparison they're excellent singers.
Awesome tune, makes me think of going into battle ☝️
cont down to doomsday is more like it i think it fits this song don't you!
I accept Owen Ripper...... Demolition And Jugulator👍
Epic Metal Feast!!!🤘🏻
Have moved on to new kinds of metal, but this old shit I'm beginning to realize still has some important lessons. Very relevant song in today's age.
What a voice
F tare Priest.Calitate buna a piesei 👍
My precious!
This album is excellent. I dare say it even... rips?
Ripper is an incredible singer
Top quality
The opening guitar is making me think of Endless Sacrifice by Dream Theater
...This song would have been awesome addition to the Painkiller album, of course with Halford singing it.
Long Time priest fan. ripper gets it done
Awesome !!!🤘🏻🍻
Ome of the most underrated albums of any generation bye far
No dislikes. Looks like no one is gonna die yet. :)
EDIT: 13 people dead as of 1-6-20...
8 dislikes from March 10,2019 but who gives a crap this song fucking wrecks!
Ian Hill sounds so powerful in this song
there are 3 and a half pixels in this image
Wicked...!
Good song.
Whatta melodious metal song 💥💥
Love this song still.Think ripper rock as hard.Any other song rob does.But both add to band history.
Been many years for this..I agree sooo under rate..fuck those...It is our song to put on mix..those who hate..what ever..
And now you see why the band went with Ripper Owens after Rob left!
Yeah!
🤘🎸
Bullet train this song and metal messiah are the 3 best ripper era songs!
Beginning reminds me of beginning of this love from pantera
Классс!!!!!
not gonna lie this track's fucking awesome
To everyone in Judas Priest land that did not give Ripper Owens a chance and respect... FOAD! Can not wait for K.K's PRIEST! It will be a nice break from Halford boy and the Glenn Tipton Admiration Society featuring members of Judas Priest.
Finally someone who talks sense on here. Rock On Bud....See you at a K.K's Priest show when gigs come back \M/
@@vinaymulukutla358 We will be there! Can not wait!
I mean nothing wrong with Rob but it feels like he air guitars in front of the guitarists a bit too much.
Whywhywhywhyyyyyyyyy is this not on spotify 😢
I'm really proud of Tim. He's a great singer. Check out Greenface by Iced Earth. Stepped into some big shoes and kicked fucking ass!!!
1:08 Tim Owens rides a roller coaster
All honesty this is the only priest album I like !! 🤘🏻😡🤘🏻
intro reminds me of planet caravan pantera cover
That one dislike is Halford
Motör Fate i don't think so. Rob Halford is a gentleman and does not say anything wrong against others.
Halford likes Ripper Owens.
@@Jacktrack7 he likes or he loves? I'm joking! It's true. Rob never had something against him.
Judas priest is the shit
Layne ‘The Ripper’ Halford
Personally I can tell the difference between Rob and Tim but I guess others dont pay enough attention
5:14
Anyone know other songs with a clean intro like this?
Dope as fuck
Ride the lightning. If you now what I mean... =)
what do you mean
@@precesco There is a riff which is similar to Ride the lighting
Stai, nu cumva ai nume românesc?!
Allmusic: ''Owens sucks he just can't sing like Halford, escpecially his high notes sounds horrible after a legend like Halford"
Owens who has horrible vocal: 1:19
Sounds like Cemetery Gates by pantera...
This sounds like iron maiden blood brothers
i lost respect for halford when he decided not to sing anything from the ripper era
@Leon Russell in a recent interview he stated he's up for it.
@@customcornpop In fairness, Rob has also said that as far back as 2003 when the Ripper albums/era were still fairly fresh (at that time). We're at 2020 now. Don't get me wrong, it will still be cool (and a shock) if Rob and the band perform a Ripper-era song - but I'll also believe it when I See it as we've heard this song and dance before.
I do recall the re-united band were prepared to include Ripper Owens tracks on the upcoming tour, but this never seemed to happen.
Do you know if Halford really "decided" that?
