Here comes the Painkiller!

Oh man, Judas Priest turned it up to eleven everywhere with this album.

It is an outstanding album, very different to all the ones before, it's like they bathed in steroids while snorting coke.

A friend of mine always thought that this is a best of album, because there's only killer tracks.

In my opinion, Painkiller is not even the best one on the album.

Hell Patrol is the best song on Painkiller, no question about that!

Without the slightest hint of a doubt, Leather Rebel is the best song on Painkiller!

I just wanted to write that I think that Metal Meltdown is NOT the best song on Painkiller.
But as it is blasting my brain away I realized that I am an idiot, of course it is the best song on Painkiller!

Did anybody realise by now that I think Painkiller is an above average album?

If you haven't, listen to Between the Hammer & the Anvil because it is the best song on the album!

There are also slower songs on Painkiller.
And this one ist the best of 'em on the album, maybe even the best song on the album overall:

🎵 A Touch of Evil

After an interluding Battle Hymn Judas Priest take one shot at glory (no need for another shot).

Best song on the album, don't @ me.

No, Living Bad Dreams is not the best song on Painkiller. It's a solid metal ballad though.

🎵 Living Bad Dreams
https://song.link/at/i/207178505

I know painkiller might be cheesy, lyrics are maybe not Goethe level.

But it is so f*king entertaining, it is heavy metal A-Z. It ticks all my boxes. I never feel bored listening to it. All songs killer.
To me, this album is almost a 5/5. But only almost, I'll give it 4,5 out of 5 shots at glory.

Angel Of Retribution was a strong comeback for Rob Halford, overall a good album 3,5 out of 5 cringeworthy Loch Ness choruses.

Redeemer Of Souls is Judas Priest's first album ever recorded without K.K. Downing.

I can't say I like it much and I think this is Priest's weakest album with Rob. Verdict: 2,5/5

However, esp. thanks to Richie Faulkner, this album contains hints of their next record, oh and what album that would become!

After Redeemer Priest went on a farewell tour. But the energy Richie brought into the band ignited something.

He brought the fire back 🔥

I cannot thank him enough, because oh boy did they deliver 🤘

When I saw Judas Priest in 2018, they played Guardians and Rising From Ruins. I was blown away. I mean I knew the song before, but experiencing it live with all the fire and flames in the background was pure magic 🔥

I love the song ever since at it might as well be my favourite on Firepower.
