Painkiller barely beats out Sad Wings of Destiny. "Painkiller" the song is one of the best things they've done...

Would you like some Bailey's?

Nah, there's a vocal minority who don't like it and a couple of negative-to-lukewarm reviews of it on Metal-Archives.com.

Or if you're one of the cynics, 'Unleashed In The Studio' (nasty people, cynics ); to my mind, the only problem with this album is no version of 'Starbreaker' or 'Beyond The Realms Of Death' - otherwise, the perfect heavy metal live album
 
There are a reissue than contains Starbreaker and Hell Bent for Leather for your pleasure.
 
But i have to say something about the UITE is know for all that that album has overdubs made in the sutdio, well in this year i listen to a live record of that tour, and they almost played the entire set (Plus Beyond the Realms of...) and is very close to UITE.

I think Ram It Down is a good album, or at least worth it just for Blood Red Skies and Hard as Iron.

I'd say that Sad Wings of Destiny, Sin After Sin, Stained Class and Killing Machine are the truly essential albums. I love them all equally (but Stained Class deserves a special mention for it's brutal heaviness and straight-forward power. Just...metal).

I also have a strange relationship with Point of Entry, a rarity in the Priest discography, with a whole new sound for much of the album.

Never really cared that much for British Steel, and while the rest of the discography (not including the Ripper years) features some of the best NWOBHM (or metal for that matter) ever written it also features a lot of duds.

Avoid Turbo and Ram It Down. They're quite good when you're really drunk though LOL

YES I HAVE! A very good album by a great band.
 
...but not in the same league as UITE. Wink

Sin After Sin, Sad Wings of Destiny, Painkiller, Killing Machine. 


I was rather disappointed by the likes of Stained Class.  It didn't do anything for me.  Seemed like more of an awkward transition album.

Stained Class's the one, one of the most important metal albums. Have to say that SWOD and Sin after Sin come mighty close though. Sinner and the title track of Stained Class are my favourite JP tracks.

Sad Wings of Destiny is the best Heavy Metal record ever made. Absolutely perfect in every respect.

Sin after Sin. First one I heard, and Starbreaker has one of the greatest choruses EVER.
