My top five Judas Priest albums 1. Sad Wings Of Destiny (1976) 2. Stained Class (1978) 3. Hellbent For Leather/Killing Machine (1979) 4. Defenders Of The Faith (1984) 5. Rocka Rolla (1974; Yeah I said that! I love this album! Used to be at number two!)
Sad Wings Of Destiny is my favorite of theirs. Victims of Change is just a masterpiece. But they are simply one of the Gods of Metal so aside from maybe one or two albums , you can’t go wrong with any of their works.
Favourite has always been "Painkiller" personally, but "Screaming For Vengeance" and "Sin After Sin" are close behind. Honourable mention: "Turbo", because it fuckin' bangs thats why.
@@blackwaterrust476 I feel that out of classic trilogy (Sad Wings,Sin After Sin and Stained Class) it's the weakest of them,but it's still pretty strong. I mean,any record with Dissident Agressor on it can be called a classic just for that,nevermind other great songs like Sinner and Starbreaker

Great fun watching this! and agree to large extent on your run down. only recently discovered this vid after recently getting massively back into Priest. Anyway...One word to describe ''Defenders of the faith' - exhilarating! The band are at their absolute peak on this beast of an album. Everything about it from Rob's incredible soaring vocals to Glen and KK's masterful duelling guitars is immense..Production, song writing, the performances all five stars. If there is a better or more perfect flowing rock/metal album to drive to - then I'm yet to hear it! I love it even more now (if possible) since they added the bonus track 'turn on your lights' This beautiful song adds an even greater depth to the album and is the perfect closer.. 1 Defenders of the Faith - half the album would likely feature in my top 10 songs from Priest. The Sentinel is certainly one of them too! 2 Sad Wings of Destiny 3 Stained Class 4 British Steel - The Rage and Steeler and are two of the most underrated songs. The bludgeoning riff ending to Steeler is sheer metal brilliance.. 5 Screaming for Vengeance - another great ballad in 'Prisoner of your eyes' from the Turbo sessions added to compliment this album superbly 6 Sin after Sin 7 Rocka Rolla - The more I understand the journey of Priest through the years, the more I look back on this album and love it. 8 Turbo - love the fact they didn't play it safe by repeating the formula from Screaming/Defenders

Nostradamus (2008) I’ve loved Judas Priest ever since my dad showed me to them when I was around 6 years old, “you’ve got another thing comin” was my first ever metal song and first time ever hearing metal. Fell in love with it ever since. Defenders of the faith is my favorite album from them it has all the best songs in my opinion, “the sentinel”, “love bites”, “Jawbreaker” “Freewheel Burning” and so many other classics and it’s one of my favorite albums of all time🤘🏻
Ram it down so underrated by you, why? It paved the way for painkiller (hard as iron, blood red skies) and also has catchy turbo like anthems (love you to death, monsters of rock). Ok there's no drummer there but a drum maschine but still a decent album. Defenders forever the best I agree

Jugulator, Rocka Rola 15) Sin After Sin (cool album cover though) - - - Grade C - - - 14) Point of Entry (too many awful songs) 13) Hell Bent For Leather (over rated) 12) British Steel (I don't care for "Breaking the Law", the rest is over rated, except Living Midnight A++) - - - Grade B - - - 11) Angel of Retribution 10) Turbo (Turbo Lover is way over rated) 09) Ram It Down (Great Metal, except for poor Johnny Be Good and Monsters of Rock) 8) Sad Wings of Destiny - - - Grade A - - - (nearly perfect) 7) Defenders of the Faith 6) Firepower 5) Redeemer of Souls - - - Grade A+ - - - (perfect) 4) Stained Class 3) Nostradamus (I listen to this every night, no insult, and fall asleep to it. Soothing Metal, WAY WAY underrated) - - - Grade A++ - - (above perfect) 2) Screaming for Vengeance (The Hellion/Electric Eye, all time favorite Priest song) 1) Painkiller (nothing more to say)
Wel well well Nostradamus as a concept album is pretty hard to rank. I definitely do understand people do not like it. Back in 2008 was JP fanbase not prepared for deep philosophical album like this one. Too many people got used to simple radiofriendly undemanding songs with poor lyrics, but Nostradamus on the other side is completely different and that is why I love it so much. Yeah it was obvious guys had no experience with making of a conceptual albums, but I totally dig, what they did here. Usual flaws like too slow and weak guitar, nearly no faster songs (with the exception of Persecution and eponymous one), poor production that makes everything look really bad, but that songs are so great. Alone - a nostalgic rebellious anthem criticizing our society, Death - a doomy massacrious opus magnum that probably could have been speeded up and Exiled - super chorus nothing to criticize
I love the variety that a Judas Priest ranking can have. Personally, Screaming For Vengeance and Painkiller are my two favorite albums, but with their discography, they've got one of the best greatest hits compilation ever. Definitely gonna have to disagree with you on Turbo. Those 80s synth drums drive me up the damn wall, which is also why Defenders of the Faith is middling for me.
That's right, that's why I love this band they can sound too heavy or too poppy. Top rocker or too doomy. Too fast or too slow. Thats is why I like their unpopular albums too" like Turbo, Point of Entry, Nostradamus and Demolition. But when I was new to this band I didnt liked much Turbo and Point of Entry becasue the lack of the metal element in Point of Entry and the synths in Turbo. But now I love the whole discography.
My favorite Priest album is Painkiller with Night Crawler being my personal favorite song by them. I also agree with you that Nostradermous is their worst.
My ranking is soooo similar to yours - fuc*ing love Turbo too! Stained Class has a very high spot for me as well. Sadly never got into Defenders Of The Faith that much, but things can change over time. Just listened to British Steel yesterday and man this always brings me back to the roots: I discovered Judas Priest back in the day by listening to Living After Midnight. Still love that track, no matter what people say with stuff like "commercial radio hit" and "overplayed" - just love it.❤
Painkiller is the best in my opinion and if you want to compare it you have to do it with other metal masterpieces like Powerslave, Rust in Peace, Ride the Lightning, ....
1. Screaming For Vengance 2. Sad Wings Of Destiny 3. Painkiller 4. Stained Class 5. Defenders Of The Faith I'm amazed that such an old metal band still puts out great albums, like many other I also really dislike Nostradamus but the other 3 albums from this century I love a lot, maybe those 3 would all fit in my top 10. I also really enjoy the (often maligned) song Loch Ness. The Turbo album don't do much for me though, it would be near the bottom for me together with Nostradamus, Ram It Down, Rocka rolla and Demolition.
Nostradamus at last is sad to see. I slept on the album but after listening to it, I fell in love. Some of the songs on there became some of my favourites instantly. Pestilence and Plague still stands out to me HONESTLY I AGREE ON LOCHNESS TOO! Lochness is so underrated, its top 5 Priest songs ever. Just amazing.
My best 1: Defenders Of The Faith 2: Stained Class 3: Sad Wings of Destiny 4: Sin After Sin 5: Screaming for Vengeance. My worst 1: Demolition 2: Jugulator 3: Point of Entry 4: Redeemer of Souls. Honorable mention: Unleashed in the East. My best songs: The Sentinel, Jawbreaker, Freewheel Burning, Judas is Rising, Hellrider, Beyond the Realms of Death, Stained Class, Blood Red Skies, Revelations.

greetings from Greece :) nice video :) it's kinda difficult to rank the albums of this band...but I will say that, for me at least, Nostradamus, Demolition, Turbo and Point Of Entry are the band's "weak" albums, or the band's "not so good" albums(I don't want to use the word "bad", Priest has NOT made "bad" albums)...my favorite Priest album is British Steel, then comes Painkiller, then comes Defenders Of The Faith, then comes Screaming For Vengeance and then, Stained Class...I also liked all the other albums that I didn't mention, but not as much as I liked the ones I mentioned...and of course I didn't like Nostradamus, Demolition, Turbo and Point Of Entry...the "not so good" albums(actually I come to think that "not so good" is better than "weak")...
1 Unleashed in the East 2 Screaming for Vengeance 3 Defenders of the Faith 4 Turbo 5 British Steel 6 Killing Machine 7 Point of Entry 8 Stained Class 9 Sad Wings of Destiny 10 Sin After Sin 11 Painkiller 12 Ram it Down 13 Firepower 14 Redeemer of Souls 15 Angel of Retribution 16 Nostradamus
My top 5 are: 1 - Painkiller 2 - Defenders Of The Faith 3 - Screaming for Vengeance 4 - British Steel 5 - Angel Of Retribution Number 2 and 3 are really difficult for me to chose between them. Masterpieces. I also love the 70's priest, but I don't see myself going back to those records as much as I do with the top 5.
In my opinion, the top six are Sad Wings of Destiny, Stained Class, Screaming For Vengence, Painkiller, Redeemer Of Souls and Firepower. The bottom four are the same as yours - Rocka Rolla, Jugulator, Nostradamous and Demolition (while Nostradamous had an audacious concept, it - along with Jugulator and Demolition needed to be cut down by around a third).

Bro pls answer my question. What made you to love Redeemer? its production? Just asking for a friend
#1 Stained Class #2 Painkiller #3 Sad Wings #4 Screaming for Vengeance #5 Defenders of the Faith #6 British Steel #7 Firepower #8 Killing Machine #9 Angel of Retribution #10 Unleashed in the East
Least favourite - Nostradamus: Yep that time they thought they were a symphonic metal band. I like symphonic metal. When it's done well it can be amazing and it allows bands to be really creative. This however is boring as hell, too many ballads and a bland concept. It has it's moments but for the most part this album puts me to sleep. Favourite - Painkiller: Defenders Of The Faith was my favourite for many years but recently I'v leaned more towards Painkiller. It's faster, more, aggressive, all the tracks are iconic, great blend between thrash and power metal and the production is amazing with those screeching guitars and drums that sound like an artillery bombardment! I
My Top 17 Judas Priest, There isn't a Bad Priest Album, Except my Number 17. 17. Nostradomus 16. Firepower 15. Redeemer of Souls 14. Angel of Retribution 13. Point of Entry 12. Demolition 11. Jugulator 10. Ram It Down 9. Turbo 30 8. Defenders of the Faith 7. Rocka Rolla 6. Screaming for Vengeance 5. Painkiller 4. Sin After Sin 3. British Steel 2. Sad Wings of Destiny 1. Killing Machine/Hell Bent For Leather 1. Stained Class Those 2 Albums have to Be Number 1, 2 Awesome Albums Released in the Same Year!
Sin After Sin is my favorite. Hurts to see where you put it but it's okay, everyone has their own taste. Stained Class is a very close 2nd. I can't get behind you loving Lochness though... I hate it 😄
I used to have a 2 hour drive to work. The only CD in the car was Nostradamus and like you I wasnt keen. But since it was all I had I listened and it became one of my favorite Priest albums
I dig Rocka Rolla quite a bit, I think the production of it isn't as heavy as some of their later 70's albums but the songwriting is there even if it's no stained class I still hold it somewhere in the middle. Sin After Sin is a bit low, starbreaker and dissident aggressor are top 10 Priest tracks in my book. Killing Machine is also awesome, not top 5 but pretty close. I agree British Steel is a bit overrated, it's too commercial sounding at times. Turbo is of course no way near Sin After Sin in my book, Angel of Retribution is good but not amongst their best, I wouldn't put anything post Painkiller on the top half. ;) I subscribed btw and I also create metal videos if you didn't know. ;) Cheers!
Y'know my top three is probably 1.Stained Class 2.Sin After Sin 3.Sad Wings (Order is negotiable) I wish I liked Killing Machine more, but Evening Star, Burnin Up, and Killing Machine as songs don't really do much for me (Evening Star is total 70's pop rock cheese), and Take On The World just makes me scratch my head. What sucks is that Running Wild, Hell Bent, and Rock Forever are too short! You forgot to mention Hard As Iron from Ram It Down! That track is KILLER! Proto Painkiller!
18) Demolition - Dogwank 17) Turbo - Shit with a good opener 16) Rocka Rolla - Shit with a good opener 15) Point of Entry - Ok, but so monotonous 14) Ram It Down - Boring 13) Nostradamus - Awesome, but way too long and bloated 12) Angel of Retribution - Great with a shit closer 11) Jugulator - Underrated 10 Redeemer of Souls - Kickass, no filler 9) Firepower - The same as Redeemer of Souls, but better 8) Sin After Sin - So many great songs, but 2 complete shitefests 7) British Steel - Great, but overrated 6) Defenders of the Faith - Would be top 5, but the last 3 songs are dogshit 5) Killing Machine - Kickass 4) Sad Wings of Destiny - Kickass, but the piano pieces are a bit kak 3) Screaming For Vengeance - Almost perfect but the last couple of songs are filler 2) Painkiller - Perfect 1) Stained Class - Perfect
Today - 10 Angel Of Retribution 9 British Steel 8 Firepower 7 Sad Wings 6 Point Of Entry 5 Killing Machine 4 Sin After Sin 3 Stained Class 2 Screaming For Vengeance 1 Defenders Cant trust anyone who says Painkiller's the best. You guys are just loony...
Least favourite- Nostradamus: Yep that time they thought they were a symphonic metal band. I like symphonic metal. When it's done right it can be amazing as it allows bands to be really creative. But this is just plain boring. Too many ballads for a start, the blandest concept you can think of with very few memorable moments. This album is great if you suffer from insomnia because it will put you to sleep in no time. Favourite- Painkiller: Defenders Of The Faith was my favourite but in the last year iv leaned more towards Painkiller. I love the blend of thrash and power metal. It's the fastest, most aggressive, all tracks are iconic and the production is superb with the loud screeching guitars and drums that sound like a WW2 artillery bombardment!
I will write my top 5, it's pretty much set in stone for me 1.Painkiller 2.Stained Class 3.Defenders Of The Faith 4.Screaming For Vengeance 5.Sad Wings Of Destiny Turbo has a problem that Point Of Entry also has. Are they good albums on their own? I would say yes. Are they what I come to Judas Priest for? 95% of the time-no. I respect the band for experimentation,but it's just not what I want to hear from Judas Priest. Also,Sin After Sin is high for me just by the force of Sinner and Dissident Agressor alone,those tracks destroy
@@Questformetal I think Defenders is almost perfect,but Heavy Duty/Defenders Of The Faith aren't as strong as all the other tracks. If it ended on The Night Comes Down,it would have been perfect in my eyes. Stained Class and Painkiller have no weak track for me. But some tracks on Defenders are so fantastic that it's hard to argue with it being your number 1. I mean,having Freewheel Burning, Jawbreaker,Rock Hard Ride Free and The Sentinel in a row? That's just mindblowing
1. Painkiller 2. Screaming for Vengeance 3. Defenders of the Faith 4. Stained Class 5. Sad Wings of Destiny 6. British Steel 7. Firepower 8. Sin After Sin 9. Hellbent for Leather 10. Angel of Retribution Not really a fan of the rest. Everything above is at least an 8/10 and they’re maybe my favorite band ever but everything else is just so boring compared to everything else.
Firepower is my favourite! Jugulator is a pile of horseshit from start to finnish and Demolition has a few bright spots, but Metal Messiah is undoubtedly Priest’s worst song... British Steel is overrated as f***
@Sir Norman In preparation for a forthcoming Priest concert (which was cancelled/postponed) I went on a Priest marathon, and I was baffled by the fact that something SO recent from a veteran band like them had beaten Sad Wings of Destiny or Stained Class off the top spot after my chronological listening!
@@Jayagebee When I first listened to Firepower I thought it is unbelievable they produced something like THIS at their mighty age, but now it seems after 4 years people still DO like it and it was not a miracle but a reality. I have read many many reviews and Firepower made it into the TOP 10 JP albums of all times at least so I guess it is not a coincidence at all. Old dinos produced one of their TOP 10 albums. I ranked FP at Nr. 6 and imho it is says a lot about this album. Totally dig Spectre and Never the Heroes.
I skip those albums 18. Demolition 17. Nostradamus The "meh" albums. Listenable, but not essential in my collection 16. Redeemer of Souls 15. Point of Entry Damn right they are ESSENTIAL 14. Jugulator 13. Turbo 12. Rocka Rolla 11. Angel of Retribution 10. British Steel 9. Killing Machine 8. Firepower 7. Ram It Down 6. Defenders of the Faith 5. Sin After Sin 4. Sad Wings of Destiny 3. Painkiller 2. Screaming For Vengeance 1. Stained Class
Killing Machine is way too low in my opinion. You said it’s front loaded? Just about all their albums are. It’s one of their best, a classic. Way better than a album like the average Redeemer Of Souls just for example. Firepower isnt bad but it’s overrated. Ram It Down, Turbo and Point Of Entry are all underrated. Worst one is Jugulator, it isn’t that good itself but at least Demolition has some melody and catchy choruses. Best 5 Defenders Of The Faith (we agree there) Screaming For Vengeance Painkiller Killing Machine British Steel
Sorry to each their own but I hate Turbo. Still remember getting it when it came out and I carry a grudge. Top to bottom is Screaming for me. Defenders had higher points aka The Sentinel but also a couple of fillers.
is Jugilator heavier than Painkiller? I thought Painkiller was there heaviest? Turbo is pop Metal, Metal God told us and he knows? only ranking the classic 80's 7. Ramit down 6. Painkiller 5. Turbo 4. Point of Entry 3.British steele 2. Defenders of the Faith 1. Screaming for Vengence as far as Turbo and Point of Entry go there much better than Angel of retribution , Redemer of souls,, Fire power?

I always thought I was the only person who doesn't really like Metal Gods. I have no idea how it became a live staple. I'm glad to know I'm not alone.
Agreed. I never understood how this song has legs. I'd rather hear Grinder, Steeler or even The Rage live before this.

Sad Wings Of Destiny is my favorite of theirs. Victims of Change is just a masterpiece. But they are simply one of the Gods of Metal so aside from maybe one or two albums , you can’t go wrong with any of their works.
Favourite has always been "Painkiller" personally, but "Screaming For Vengeance" and "Sin After Sin" are close behind. Honourable mention: "Turbo", because it fuckin' bangs thats why.
Sin after Sin underrated as hell
@@blackwaterrust476
I feel that out of classic trilogy (Sad Wings,Sin After Sin and Stained Class) it's the weakest of them,but it's still pretty strong. I mean,any record with Dissident Agressor on it can be called a classic just for that,nevermind other great songs like Sinner and Starbreaker

If I’m gonna be honest Judas Priests might be the hardest discography to rank of any band. And I feel bad about putting albums like Sad Wings of Destiny and Angel of Retribution so low cause I really enjoy those albums. This just goes to show Judas Priests is one of the best metal bands of all time.

I agree with you about Defenders being in 1st place! That album is SO GOOD!
Love Loch Ness but my favourite song is Tyrant from Sad Wings of Destiny which is also my favourite album from the 70s.
74 to 80 is the Priest era for me, can't really stomach the stuff after British Steel. Painkiller being the one exception, love that album.
Firepower is good
@@DaroZuo Very good album, but Invincible Shield seems to be even better Holy cow
Hell yeah, The Sentinel is my #1 too
Sentinals like 2 or 3. Painkiller and Jawbreaker might just beat it out barely
1. Hell Bent For Leather
2. Stained Class
3. Keepers of the Faith
4. Screaming for Vengeance
5. British Steel
Great fun watching this! and agree to large extent on your run down. only recently discovered this vid after recently getting massively back into Priest.
Anyway...One word to describe ''Defenders of the faith' - exhilarating! The band are at their absolute peak on this beast of an album. Everything about it from Rob's incredible soaring vocals to Glen and KK's masterful duelling guitars is immense..Production, song writing, the performances all five stars. If there is a better or more perfect flowing rock/metal album to drive to - then I'm yet to hear it! I love it even more now (if possible) since they added the bonus track 'turn on your lights' This beautiful song adds an even greater depth to the album and is the perfect closer..
1 Defenders of the Faith - half the album would likely feature in my top 10 songs from Priest. The Sentinel is certainly one of them too!
2 Sad Wings of Destiny
3 Stained Class
4 British Steel - The Rage and Steeler and are two of the most underrated songs. The bludgeoning riff ending to Steeler is sheer metal brilliance..
5 Screaming for Vengeance - another great ballad in 'Prisoner of your eyes' from the Turbo sessions added to compliment this album superbly
6 Sin after Sin
7 Rocka Rolla - The more I understand the journey of Priest through the years, the more I look back on this album and love it.
8 Turbo - love the fact they didn't play it safe by repeating the formula from Screaming/Defenders
1-defenders
2-screaming
3-turbo
4-painkiller
5-firepower
I agree the worst is Nostradamus.
I like the song Before the dawn.

I’ve loved Judas Priest ever since my dad showed me to them when I was around 6 years old, “you’ve got another thing comin” was my first ever metal song and first time ever hearing metal. Fell in love with it ever since. Defenders of the faith is my favorite album from them it has all the best songs in my opinion, “the sentinel”, “love bites”, “Jawbreaker” “Freewheel Burning” and so many other classics and it’s one of my favorite albums of all time🤘🏻
Ram it down so underrated by you, why? It paved the way for painkiller (hard as iron, blood red skies) and also has catchy turbo like anthems (love you to death, monsters of rock). Ok there's no drummer there but a drum maschine but still a decent album. Defenders forever the best I agree

Electric Eye is my favorite Judas Priest song. Their live video of the song is gnarly as fuck.

- - - Grade A++ - - (above perfect)
2) Screaming for Vengeance (The Hellion/Electric Eye, all time favorite Priest song)
1) Painkiller (nothing more to say)
Wel well well Nostradamus as a concept album is pretty hard to rank. I definitely do understand people do not like it. Back in 2008 was JP fanbase not prepared for deep philosophical album like this one. Too many people got used to simple radiofriendly undemanding songs with poor lyrics, but Nostradamus on the other side is completely different and that is why I love it so much. Yeah it was obvious guys had no experience with making of a conceptual albums, but I totally dig, what they did here. Usual flaws like too slow and weak guitar, nearly no faster songs (with the exception of Persecution and eponymous one), poor production that makes everything look really bad, but that songs are so great. Alone - a nostalgic rebellious anthem criticizing our society, Death - a doomy massacrious opus magnum that probably could have been speeded up and Exiled - super chorus nothing to criticize
I love the variety that a Judas Priest ranking can have. Personally, Screaming For Vengeance and Painkiller are my two favorite albums, but with their discography, they've got one of the best greatest hits compilation ever.
Definitely gonna have to disagree with you on Turbo. Those 80s synth drums drive me up the damn wall, which is also why Defenders of the Faith is middling for me.
That's right, that's why I love this band they can sound too heavy or too poppy. Top rocker or too doomy. Too fast or too slow.
Thats is why I like their unpopular albums too" like Turbo, Point of Entry, Nostradamus and Demolition. But when I was new to this band I didnt liked much Turbo and Point of Entry becasue the lack of the metal element in Point of Entry and the synths in Turbo. But now I love the whole discography.
My top 5
Sad Wings Of Destiny
Painkiller
Hell Bent For Leather
British Steel
Firepower
Wow Firepower at No. 5. I probably have to check this shit out
My favorite Priest album is Painkiller with Night Crawler being my personal favorite song by them. I also agree with you that Nostradermous is their worst.
My ranking is soooo similar to yours - fuc*ing love Turbo too! Stained Class has a very high spot for me as well. Sadly never got into Defenders Of The Faith that much, but things can change over time. Just listened to British Steel yesterday and man this always brings me back to the roots: I discovered Judas Priest back in the day by listening to Living After Midnight. Still love that track, no matter what people say with stuff like "commercial radio hit" and "overplayed" - just love it.❤
Quest for Metal have you heard Unleashed In The East? If so did you like it a lot?
I would put Painkiller at 1. Turbo would rank high too. It has great songs, even if it's not very heavy.
Painkiller is the best in my opinion and if you want to compare it you have to do it with other metal masterpieces like Powerslave, Rust in Peace, Ride the Lightning, ....
It is easily in top 5 best metal albums in general
@@Angelgrinder660 Painkiller is absolutly amazing, but imo i'd said Screaming for Vengeance and Defenders of the Faith are better
1. Screaming For Vengance
2. Sad Wings Of Destiny
3. Painkiller
4. Stained Class
5. Defenders Of The Faith
I'm amazed that such an old metal band still puts out great albums, like many other I also really dislike Nostradamus but the other 3 albums from this century I love a lot, maybe those 3 would all fit in my top 10. I also really enjoy the (often maligned) song Loch Ness.
The Turbo album don't do much for me though, it would be near the bottom for me together with Nostradamus, Ram It Down, Rocka rolla and Demolition.
Nostradamus at last is sad to see. I slept on the album but after listening to it, I fell in love. Some of the songs on there became some of my favourites instantly. Pestilence and Plague still stands out to me
HONESTLY I AGREE ON LOCHNESS TOO! Lochness is so underrated, its top 5 Priest songs ever. Just amazing.
My best 1: Defenders Of The Faith 2: Stained Class 3: Sad Wings of Destiny 4: Sin After Sin 5: Screaming for Vengeance. My worst 1: Demolition 2: Jugulator 3: Point of Entry 4: Redeemer of Souls. Honorable mention: Unleashed in the East. My best songs: The Sentinel, Jawbreaker, Freewheel Burning, Judas is Rising, Hellrider, Beyond the Realms of Death, Stained Class, Blood Red Skies, Revelations.

Dreamer Deceiver is my fav Priest song and one of my top fav songs of all time.
greetings from Greece :) nice video :) it's kinda difficult to rank the albums of this band...but I will say that, for me at least, Nostradamus, Demolition, Turbo and Point Of Entry are the band's "weak" albums, or the band's "not so good" albums(I don't want to use the word "bad", Priest has NOT made "bad" albums)...my favorite Priest album is British Steel, then comes Painkiller, then comes Defenders Of The Faith, then comes Screaming For Vengeance and then, Stained Class...I also liked all the other albums that I didn't mention, but not as much as I liked the ones I mentioned...and of course I didn't like Nostradamus, Demolition, Turbo and Point Of Entry...the "not so good" albums(actually I come to think that "not so good" is better than "weak")...

I also love the 70's priest, but I don't see myself going back to those records as much as I do with the top 5.
I put nostradomas low but I found other albums worse
The two Ripper albums are definitely worse
@@JCStorm76 Agree with Demolition, but Jugulator? I put it at No. 14 on my list
In my opinion, the top six are Sad Wings of Destiny, Stained Class, Screaming For Vengence, Painkiller, Redeemer Of Souls and Firepower.
The bottom four are the same as yours - Rocka Rolla, Jugulator, Nostradamous and Demolition (while Nostradamous had an audacious concept, it - along with Jugulator and Demolition needed to be cut down by around a third).
Bro pls answer my question. What made you to love Redeemer? its production? Just asking for a friend
I love painkiller and firepower
Top notch albums.

It's funny* I gave my rankings before I watched the whole video. So cool that Defenders is your favorite. It's mine too...absolutely flawless!
Least favourite - Nostradamus: Yep that time they thought they were a symphonic metal band. I like symphonic metal. When it's done well it can be amazing and it allows bands to be really creative. This however is boring as hell, too many ballads and a bland concept. It has it's moments but for the most part this album puts me to sleep.
Favourite - Painkiller: Defenders Of The Faith was my favourite for many years but recently I'v leaned more towards Painkiller. It's faster, more, aggressive, all the tracks are iconic, great blend between thrash and power metal and the production is amazing with those screeching guitars and drums that sound like an artillery bombardment!

Those 2 Albums have to Be Number 1, 2 Awesome Albums Released in the Same Year!
Woahh why’s firepower so low?
Firepower at No. 16 AND BELOW REDEEMER? Bro are you off your meds? sry to say that
Sin After Sin is my favorite. Hurts to see where you put it but it's okay, everyone has their own taste. Stained Class is a very close 2nd.
I can't get behind you loving Lochness though... I hate it 😄
Tbh anything I put after ram it down I really love they don’t really have many bad albums
I used to have a 2 hour drive to work. The only CD in the car was Nostradamus and like you I wasnt keen. But since it was all I had I listened and it became one of my favorite Priest albums
I dig Rocka Rolla quite a bit, I think the production of it isn't as heavy as some of their later 70's albums but the songwriting is there even if it's no stained class I still hold it somewhere in the middle. Sin After Sin is a bit low, starbreaker and dissident aggressor are top 10 Priest tracks in my book. Killing Machine is also awesome, not top 5 but pretty close. I agree British Steel is a bit overrated, it's too commercial sounding at times. Turbo is of course no way near Sin After Sin in my book, Angel of Retribution is good but not amongst their best, I wouldn't put anything post Painkiller on the top half. ;) I subscribed btw and I also create metal videos if you didn't know. ;) Cheers!
Thanks for your input and love your videos too 🍺 On retrospect I’d have sin after sin way higher now love that album now
Y'know my top three is probably
1.Stained Class
2.Sin After Sin
3.Sad Wings
(Order is negotiable)
I wish I liked Killing Machine more, but Evening Star, Burnin Up, and Killing Machine as songs don't really do much for me (Evening Star is total 70's pop rock cheese), and Take On The World just makes me scratch my head. What sucks is that Running Wild, Hell Bent, and Rock Forever are too short!
You forgot to mention Hard As Iron from Ram It Down! That track is KILLER! Proto Painkiller!
18) Demolition - Dogwank
17) Turbo - Shit with a good opener
16) Rocka Rolla - Shit with a good opener

13) Nostradamus - Awesome, but way too long and bloated
12) Angel of Retribution - Great with a shit closer
11) Jugulator - Underrated
10 Redeemer of Souls - Kickass, no filler
9) Firepower - The same as Redeemer of Souls, but better
8) Sin After Sin - So many great songs, but 2 complete shitefests
7) British Steel - Great, but overrated
6) Defenders of the Faith - Would be top 5, but the last 3 songs are dogshit
5) Killing Machine - Kickass
4) Sad Wings of Destiny - Kickass, but the piano pieces are a bit kak
3) Screaming For Vengeance - Almost perfect but the last couple of songs are filler
2) Painkiller - Perfect

My favorite : "Defenders Of The Faith". Ther worst: " Demolition".
If I live to be 150 years old, I will NEVER understand how ANYONE ranks Jugulator above Demolition!!
EASILY BRO....EASILY!
Gotta be Screaming For Vengeance
Least favourite- Nostradamus: Yep that time they thought they were a symphonic metal band. I like symphonic metal. When it's done right it can be amazing as it allows bands to be really creative. But this is just plain boring. Too many ballads for a start, the blandest concept you can think of with very few memorable moments. This album is great if you suffer from insomnia because it will put you to sleep in no time.
Favourite- Painkiller: Defenders Of The Faith was my favourite but in the last year iv leaned more towards Painkiller. I love the blend of thrash and power metal. It's the fastest, most aggressive, all tracks are iconic and the production is superb with the loud screeching guitars and drums that sound like a WW2 artillery bombardment!

Turbo has a problem that Point Of Entry also has. Are they good albums on their own? I would say yes. Are they what I come to Judas Priest for? 95% of the time-no. I respect the band for experimentation,but it's just not what I want to hear from Judas Priest.
Also,Sin After Sin is high for me just by the force of Sinner and Dissident Agressor alone,those tracks destroy
Starbreakers great too🤟 and can’t fault your top 5 if you mixed them around it would make my top 5
@@Questformetal
I think Defenders is almost perfect,but Heavy Duty/Defenders Of The Faith aren't as strong as all the other tracks. If it ended on The Night Comes Down,it would have been perfect in my eyes. Stained Class and Painkiller have no weak track for me. But some tracks on Defenders are so fantastic that it's hard to argue with it being your number 1. I mean,having Freewheel Burning, Jawbreaker,Rock Hard Ride Free and The Sentinel in a row? That's just mindblowing
Amazing songs in a row always kicks my ass! Stained is very close for me though been jamming it a lot recently more than others

Not really a fan of the rest. Everything above is at least an 8/10 and they’re maybe my favorite band ever but everything else is just so boring compared to everything else.
Firepower is my favourite! Jugulator is a pile of horseshit from start to finnish and Demolition has a few bright spots, but Metal Messiah is undoubtedly Priest’s worst song... British Steel is overrated as f***
@Sir Norman In preparation for a forthcoming Priest concert (which was cancelled/postponed) I went on a Priest marathon, and I was baffled by the fact that something SO recent from a veteran band like them had beaten Sad Wings of Destiny or Stained Class off the top spot after my chronological listening!
@@Jayagebee When I first listened to Firepower I thought it is unbelievable they produced something like THIS at their mighty age, but now it seems after 4 years people still DO like it and it was not a miracle but a reality. I have read many many reviews and Firepower made it into the TOP 10 JP albums of all times at least so I guess it is not a coincidence at all. Old dinos produced one of their TOP 10 albums. I ranked FP at Nr. 6 and imho it is says a lot about this album. Totally dig Spectre and Never the Heroes.
can't go wrong with any priest album to be honest.

Turbo ahead of British Steel doesn’t seem right but other than that I thought it was pretty accurate.
Sad wings of destiny stained class or painkiller least favourite demolition
I prefer Nostradamus, Jugulator and Demolition over Point of Entry.
Killing Machine is way too low in my opinion. You said it’s front loaded? Just about all their albums are. It’s one of their best, a classic. Way better than a album like the average Redeemer Of Souls just for example. Firepower isnt bad but it’s overrated.
Ram It Down, Turbo and Point Of Entry are all underrated.
Worst one is Jugulator, it isn’t that good itself but at least Demolition has some melody and catchy choruses.
Best 5
Defenders Of The Faith (we agree there)
Screaming For Vengeance

Killing Machine
British Steel
I also am a huge fan of Turbo
Painkiller
The worst Priest album is still better than the best album of so many bands. That is why os hard to rate them.
Truer words have never been spoken
Favorite- Hell Bent for Leather!
Please rank Pestilence albums
Sorry to each their own but I hate Turbo. Still remember getting it when it came out and I carry a grudge. Top to bottom is Screaming for me. Defenders had higher points aka The Sentinel but also a couple of fillers.
No shame in admitting that turbo is my favourite album of there entrie catalogue
is Jugilator heavier than Painkiller? I thought Painkiller was there heaviest? Turbo is pop Metal, Metal God told us and he knows?

as far as Turbo and Point of Entry go there much better than Angel of retribution , Redemer of souls,, Fire power?
Yeah, Jugulator is heavier than Painkiller Painkiller is speed metal, Jugulator is thrash/groove metal with very thrashy riffs and aggressive vocals.
Not a fan of metal gods either. And I know why: slow and boring chorus.
However not much into lochness
Priest never got better than Painkiller, seminal metal album.
meh...nobody got better after Painkiller
