NOT a single bad song on here and all of them shred like hell. Perfect album for me as well. Gotta love the awesome drumming of newcomer Scott Travis!  |
|
|
|
| Not their best, but still amazing. This band has so many consistent albums it's crazy. |
|
|
|
| yes. one of the best albums ever without a doubt |
|
|
|
the intro to painkiller is simply the peak of all heavy metal imo
1990 was such a good year for metal with rust in peace,seasons in the abyss and this genius of an album
the title track is one of the heaviest,fastest,most skull grinding assraping songs in history |
|
|
|
 i really wanted to steal the riff to night crawler that comes at 2:30 or something
i didn't know it's theirs but i wanted to do something strikingly similar |
|
|
|
| This CD was *the* ultimate when I bought it. There are other metal CDs that are equally as good as this one, but this is one of the best metal CDs ever. A 9.9 is too low of a rating for this CD. "Night Crawler" and "Touch Of Evil" hit me the same way now they did back when I was in 8th grade! |

I can't believe I havn't commented on this album!
This is of course my favourite Judas Priest album, although the track Painkiller was not my favourite much like some who I know have heard it... one shot at glory, metal meltdown and a touch of evil are some of the highlights, especially since they contain riffs that get stuck in your head, very enjoyable indeed. |
|
|
|
God i wish the name painkiller wasnt taken as a user name : / best album ever made!!!!!!!! 9.9 is far to low of a rating, the first time i heard the song painkiller i was in complete shock and disbelieve of what i was hearing, and that contuned throughout the entire ablum
THE PAINKILER RAISES AGAIN! |
|
|
|
"I love my painkillers!"
....and a song was born
He does love his painkillers |

It's the Priest!!!! What can I say? Wicked!!!!!!
Halford is INSANE. You gotta love this album. |
|
|
|
| One of the best albums ever. I'm kind of surprised that this album kind of slipped under mainstream metal listeners, cause this is by far Judas' best. A perfect blend of heaviness and catchiness is heard in just about every song. Just by listening to this album, any I can tell that this band through out the idea of holding anything back. |
|
|
|
Truly a giant among metal albums.  |
|
|
|
| Probably Judas Priest's best album. Fast, with alot of solos and alot of screaming... 10/10 |
|
|
|
yeah... the Judas Priest's best album and a real hymn in the metal history!!!
I can't stop listening Hell Patrol, All guns blazing, One shot at glory!!! wow...
This is one of this albums that you can listen all tracks and all of them will like you for sure!!! this album was made in an incredible way!!!!
Long live for Judas Priest! |
|
|
|
Listened to it yesterday, fucking amazing. Deffinitely the peak of heaviness at the time when Priest were using commercialised studio equipment to blast out there Ultra Metal since Screaming For Vengeance. Also the most agressive album Priet ever did, which is all thanks to Scott Travis.
LEATHER REBEL! |
|
|
|
| THIS IIIS THE PAIN KILLER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 10 all the way:maniac: |
|
|
|
Best songs: Night crawler, a touch of evil, between the hammer & the anvil.
But let's just say this is a memorable album. One of the best albums ever made by one of the best bands that ever lived. 
It's true. |

what do people see in this awful album? ugh. Rob's screams are just as annoying as those of Dani Filth!
The whole album is extremely repetitive and never takes any solid substance.
Definitely Judas Priest worst.

This Album is the Metal Nirvana! (the state of mind when you reach the total ilumination, not the band). its amazing, Wicked, Huge, Fast, Agressive, Powerful, Consistent and Evil in some kind of way. at the time the album start it pounch you in the face with a solid Drums intro then one of the most Wicked riffs in Metal history making that bloodchill that every of us love, after that Halford's Voice Posses the speakers and then the most wicked and amazing journey into Metal music begins, that descrive the first time i listened to this album. For me Painkiller is not just an Album, it is the resume of a Religion, a Way to live, a world that only the stronger can reach. this Masterpiece make me understand the meaning of power, superiority and why Metal is the most Beautiful and Perfect thing that have been created ever. |
|
|
|
| For me the best song from this album is One Shot At Glory... yeah it's one of the best powerful albums but Painkiller couldn't take the place of Screaming For Vengeance |

Well I don't dislike it as much as you do but I understand your point. I never made my peace with Painkiller's vocals either. |

I love this album and everything that Judas Priest do...But still Screaming For Vengeance and Defenders Of The Faith are the best  |

I consider Halford's vocals one of my favorite aspects of this album. That said, I can understand why someone, even a priest fan, might have been put off by them, as they do mark a departure from his previous style. Fans probably overrate this album, but not by much. |
|
|
|
| My favorite Priest album by far. Not a single bad song on this one. Very impressive vocals, great guitarwork and drumming (I knew drumming would be very good on "Painkiller" as soon as I heard Scott Travis was now in Priest- I heard him before in Racer-X) |
|
|
|
| Yeah!!! this IS the best JP album... it is really magnificent... |

you may not like it, but denying the fact that this is the first modern metal album released in a time when most bands were still trying to repeat the 80s formula, and influenced other great bands such as Primal Fear or Iced Earth(to name only 2), this is just bias. |

To be honest I don't hear much traces of Painkiller's presence in nowdays metal - except for 3 Inches of Blood. I never cared for Primal Fear and I find Iced Earth crap, care to name other bands who really have a "painkiller vibe"? |

Actually Iced Earth doesn't have too much of a Painkiller vibe cause Iced Earth is atually more influenced by thrash than by Painkiller. And of course Primal Fear is inspired by Painkiller, HELL Primal Fear are a Painkiller era Judas Priest rip-off and a bad one at that. |

|

Unlike most of others, i dont enjoy this Priest's album that much as some others...and i dont find Painkiller that great song...  |
|
|
|
| If lot of people is saying that British Steel is overrated, I think it about this album. Metal Gods tried to be the hardest... few years after Reign In Blood, couple years after Death's first albums - sorry, it's funny. Even Blind Guardian were harder, not to mention first Helloween's album - released few years before this too. Painkiller it's nice melodic track, in end of 70's or maybe start of 80's, before Kill 'EM All it could be "the hardest" (hm, maybe some punks... ok, let it be). I like Painkiller, Night Crawler and Between the Hammer & the Anvil, but this album can never be better then masterpiece Number of the Beast, sorry |

Common logic for you: Eluveitie's Evocation I is an acoustic folk album and meant that way, not brutal and rough metal. Painkiller was meant to be brutal and rough but fails epically. |
