Judas Priest are an English heavy metal band originally formed in Birmingham, England, in 1969.
Often cited as the Best Metal Band Ever, When they first hit the Scene they battled to get exposure and could not afford the really Big PA systems that you needed to " Make It" , but it was just a matter of time.
In 1989, they were named as defendants in an unsuccessful lawsuit alleging that subliminal messages on the song "Better By You, Better Than Me" had caused the suicide attempts of two young men.
Here is a Video of Subliminal messages in songs played backwards?, very interesting, they should give these Wierdos who come up with this sort of rubbish something real to do! ( probably ex Traffic Cops or Failed politicians)
Judas Priest may have been an influence in the Movie Spinal Tap where the Drummer's keep suffering from spontaneous combustion!
Judas Priest kept changing their Drummers!
Rob Halford at his peak!
Judas Priest have sold 50 Million Albums, Exceptional for a Metal Band!
I used to keep a Priest tape in my Car , If I was going to be late for a meeting, I put in this tape and I would magically be on time!
Breaking the Law.
Turbo lover Video:-
Despite Personnel Changes , they have never lost that ability to turn out exciting Metal songs! Of course, let us not forget Rob Halford's truly incredible Vocal Range!
I have never grown tired of listening to them!
A touch of Evil and Painkiller.
They have plenty more Great Songs.
I mentioned Spinal Tap the Movie earlier , just for fun , I have added some excerpts here . If you have never seen it , I would encourage any Rock Music fan to remedy that?
