Sounds awesome. Great band. Not an easy song to sing. Rob sounds pretty damn close to the original recorded vocals from back in the day! He always sounds better live anyway when he just lets it out!
Wild-eyed and tight fisted, I'm fused to the bone I stand contemplating, reacting alone Impaled with betrayal The tourniquet turns Society's creation Pole-axed out and burnt Long ago when man was king, his heart was clean now he's stained class Time has slashed each untouched thing, so now he's just a stained class king Transfixed at deliverance, is this all there is Faithless continuum, into the abyss Fierce is my conviction, absolute my belief I spit at you apathy, and seducer deceit Long ago when man was king, his heart was clean now he's stained class Time has slashed each untouched thing, so now he's just a stained class king Lethal, deadly, hung, drawn and quartered He slaughtered and faltered and altered the world But by doing so smashed all his hopes and utopian dreams Whipping, stripping, peeling the flesh off, relentless and senseless His lust snapped like vipers whose fangs sank in deep To infest and decay from the core Impaled with betrayal, the tourniquet turns Society's creation, pole-axed out and burnt Long ago when man was king, his heart was clean now he's stained class Time has slashed each untouched thing, so now he's just a stained class king Stained class king
Yeah right? Fk I never expected Rob to be this great at this song around this time. He still kinda struggles for that faster verse but I would have still been blown away if I was there.
4'50" a 5'10" dispensam o resto de 99% dos cantores que tanto forçaram cantando em falsetes mas jamais envelheceram com uma voz como Halford e o Steven Tyler. Monstros indestrutíveis.
Eu vi na chamada da globo, apenas poucos segundos do show da banda Halford tocando Stained Class, mudou a minha vida musical. A potência, o visual, a voz, a sustentação, perfeito!
Rob Halford is the all-time best Heavy Metal singer, in my opinion. All things considered, he still sounds pretty damned good, even today. However, I believe that after this tour with the Halford band, he lost something. Maybe he overworked his voice during the tour? I don't know...but, something happened for sure, because his voice hasn't been this strong, since. I'll always be a fan, hell or high water, but this performance of "Stained Class" is a fucking gem, and marks the end of an era, as far as Halford's vocal range and strength is concerned. Again, just the opinion of this ol' heavy metal maniac! 😉
That song on that album as a budding metal guitar god changed my perspective. Snarling, punctual, nasty, tight, tough and brisk. The NWOBM arrived in a condensed package of rage and glory. The Stained Class album set the world on fire!
@@leonah2137 nah both are slop sewages they murdered the motherfreakin Painkiller it's all up to production if you want some Thrash listen to Live Meltdown,ROFL
@@leonah2137 It's all about production Glenn and KK are much better players not to state Mike butchered Painkiller solo,just look at Meltdown 98' by Judas Priest if you want some thrash.
Early in 1978 - January/February in England, (along with "Savage") promoting the newly released album. By May 1978, it was removed from the setlist, as "Exciter", "White Heat, Red Hot" and "Beyond the Realms of Death" remained on.
mysocalledknife07 As far as I know, this information is correct. However, throughout that tour they did play ”Better by you...” from Stained Class as well. Strangely enough, 2 tours later, when Holland joined the band, they only played one song from Stained Class ”Beyond the realms...” and dropped that one also by 1982. So, despite arguably their best album, Stained Class was almost completely ignored in Priest’s 80s setlists! I always found that odd.🤔
