SR 36: Looks like I pulled a (band)Camping : - (

It's been a long time coming. Painkiller was probably their last gasp of consistent greatness. I liked one...erm...fourth of Nostradamus and a couple songs offa Angel of Retribution, but maybe even they realize they've bitten the big bazooka. Maybe this'll be healthy, and the opposite of releasing a derivative concept album about obscure battlefields nobody knows or cares about, or plane shooting matches or what have you every couple years like triplet-riff clockwork.

Actually I really like Angel of Retribution, but between that and Painkiller yeah...there wasn't much of anything. And Nostradamus was....erm not so good

Judas Priest were my favorite band as a teenager.  British Steel was the first record that I bought with my own money.  I still love them for sentimental purposes but really rarely listen to them any more, aside from their album marathon that I did as part of my A to Z artist marathon that will take me the rest of my life to finish.

Don't forget about Sad Wings of Destiny!
That album is one of the best.

It's sometimes surprising. I never would've expected them to write a song like Last Rose of Summer or cover a Joan Baez tune. If you were to start, pick up these three albums and it'd tell you everything about the band that's worth hearing: Sin After Sin Screaming For Vengeance Painkiller

I think I was imagining it.  It looks fine now.

My main issue is Firefox not keeping my tabs open when I close and re-open it.  It just loads up with one tab with Google in.

I've checked the settings and it's still set to remembering tabs.

Weird and annoying.

I don't like Chrome.

I don't like Chrome. I only like it because it's got nothing but a search bar and some tabs - no navigation bars or clutter.

Firefox 4 is very similar.

But with AdBlock + and other useful Add-ons, I find Firefox much better.  I don't get adverts or spyware at all now.
