I doesn’t look like our lists are too different, Screaming for Vengeance is such a great album cover. Thanks again for your support, I really appreciate it!🤘🤘
Their covers were really all over the place. Strange for a band that really solidified what metal was all about, in music and image. Seems like they would have went in a more consistent "Iron Maiden" direction with the font on their logo and album cover artwork. Good ranking... Sad WIngs of Destiny is just awesome, and I would've ranked Ram it Down higher (probably top 3)... Defenders is one of the wildest covers ever, looks like something an amateur high school artist would have drawn on his notebook, LOL... but it has that "sentimental" value
It’s funny how some of these bands that have had such an impact on metal really don’t have that great of album covers. Black Sabbath and Metallica come to mind immediately. But, I do enjoy discussing the entire artwork subject, it doesn’t seem to get a lot of focus on the channels that I watch. And it works well with the format that I use. Thanks again for your support, I really appreciate it!🤘🤘
OMG before I even started watching this I knew Point of Entry was going to be last. I laughed what you said about Turbo with a girl grabbing a guys junk!!😂 of you've ever seen the Best of Judas Priest from Gull records that cover is incredibly cool. Great video as always my friend!
Point of Entry has to be last! That is one of the worst album covers of all time! I had to Google the Best of Judas Priest cover, you’re right! That is really cool! Thanks George!🤘
Well well well what about Invincible Shield? Do you like it bro? Tbh I hated album cover art so much and was brutally upset over it, but Panic Attack rocks so much!
I try to stay away from any of the singles before the album is released, I have heard Panic Attack and I do enjoy that one quite a bit. Maybe I will do an updated ranking sometime next year. Thanks for watching and thanks for taking the time to comment!🤘🤘
Haven't heard much of this band but that Jugulator cover art is really iconic and it becoming a real comic book sounds quite interesting to me. also respect to them for still continuing after 18 albums, i don't even know where other bands would go with that much albums
You should really check out Judas Priest, I have an album ranking video also. One of the most influential Metal Bands of all time. Painkiller, Defenders of the Faith, Screaming for Vengeance and Firepower are all excellent, Priest has never put out a bad album. Thanks for watching Jordan 🤘🤘
@@andjusticeforearl4742 well i did already check out the ranking to see your thoughts towards Turbo outtakes such as All Fired Up. anyway judging by the track Spectre it seems like yet another band aging like fine vine and i look forward to their 2024 album but in the meantime i'd check out the discography of Iron Maiden. \m/
I may rank the Slayer album covers at some point but I doubt that I will rank the Pantera covers. I will probably do a Pantera album ranking sometime in the near future. Thanks again!🤘🤘
Lol! A lot of his lyrics has sexual innuendos. Even the cover of Hell Bent for Leather has the guy wearing the studs and leather which is what Halford wore the the clubs in the 70s. It’s funny that it started a metal trend…. especially when you know where the look originated!
@@andjusticeforearl4742 I can't remember which musician said this, but they said they were on tour with Rob Halford, and they could hear him having sex with his boyfriend in the dressing room. That's about all I can say, or my comment will get deleted! 🤣
1. Angel of Retribution (2005)(10th ranked) 2. Redeemer of Souls (2014)(11) 3. Sad Wings of Destiny (1976)(4) 4. Firepower (2018)(5) 5. Screaming for Vengeance (1982)(6) 6. Sin After Sin (1977)(8) 7. Painkiller (1990)(1) 8. Rocka Rolla (1974, reissue)(12) 9. Defenders of The Faith (1984)(3) 10. British Steel (1980)(9) 11. Nostradamus (2008)(14) 12. Ram It Down (1988)(15) 13. Turbo (1986)(16) 14. Hell Bent for Leather (1978/1979)(7) 15. Jugulator (1997)(17) 16. Stained Class (1978)(2) 17. Demolition (2001)(18) 18. Point of Entry (1981)(13) We had Star Wars figures and Micronauts as kids, and I would swear that the head on Stained Class was that of a Micronaut. I can only imagine that the Priest enterprise was in a hurry to get back in the studio to produce Killing Machine.
A lot of people seem to like the album cover on Angel of Retribution. I must be missing something because it just seems very generic to me. Redeemer of Souls is really cool though! Thanks again Kevin, I always appreciate your comments!🤘🤘
@@andjusticeforearl4742 For me I think that it's the chromed wings and the fire at his feet; but what I find most striking is the eclipsed sun behind his head. The effect of the "Black Sun" occult reference makes the art seem that much more evil considering that the angel may be a depiction of Lucifer. From the fallen position of Sad Wings of Destiny he rises to inspire vengeance towards God, I guess.
They do have some horrible covers! I was surprised, I put out a community poll for which album covers to rank next. Judas Priest got almost 50% of the votes over King Diamond, Kiss and Iced Earth. I’m convinced that people thought it was for the music! But I don’t mind, album art rankings work well with my format. Thanks for watching buddy!🤘🤘
@@andjusticeforearl4742 yeah I heard you say about the poll in the video. I don't see many channel posts as I watch on my phone but I'd have voted KD as I really like the album covers that I own by them, then probably Iced Earth as I don't know many of their covers so that would have been cool for me anyway. 🤘🏻
