I'm 59. Best part is when we (my band) play these soaring songs of our youth, the younger musicians love it because not only are we rockin' it but we LIVED IT!
57 and still play. Picked up the guitar in 1979-80. Not in a full band right now, I am just recording shit with my buddy, and we don`t find anyone around we will play with. Keepin the faith brother!! Good luck to ya!
Ok I've listened to Stainded Class, Painkiller and Defender of THe Faith albums in the last two hours...........I feel like my brain's gonna leak through my ears.
Deadly as the viper Peering from its coil The poison there is coming to the boil Ticking like a time bomb The fuse is running short On the verge of snapping if it's caught And all the pressure that's been building up For all the years it bore the load The cracks appear, the frame starts to distort Ready to explode - Jawbreaker Crouching in the corner Wound up as a spring Piercing eyes that flash are shimmering Muscles are all contorted Claws dug in the dirt Every ounce of fiber on alert And all the pressure that's been building up For all the years it bore the load The cracks appear, the frame starts to distort Ready to explode - Jawbreaker And all the pressure that's been building up For all the years it bore the load The cracks appear, the frame starts to distort Ready to explode - Jawbreaker
The only friggin’ band I know that actually sounds better in a live performance. This is jawbreaker but I love the live shows on record from Judas Priest, as they sound better then the studio versions! HALFORD is the true king of heavy metal!
I'm from Maine and, man, I wish I could attend their concert. This song could be my favorite JP tune. Everything about it is awesome. The lyrics, the vox, the guitars. REALLY COOL!!
I think the label missed a golden opportunity with this album: "Jawbreaker" and "Rock Hard, Ride Free" should have been the singles/videos for this album, and not "Freewheel Burning" and "Love Bites". This may have put Judas Priest into the same MTV rotation as Twisted Sister at the time (and the fame along with it), but it would have been so worth it. This album deserved better attention in 1984.
What a solo, what a riff, what a song, what an album, what a band! Priest were totally reckless in the 70s and 80s. Each album is always an evolution, refinement and improvement, until Painkiller, that represents the pinnacle of the concept of heavy metal music in its purest form. They practically decided when that era began and when it ended.
I still have this album on cassette, along with Turbo, Pain Killer, Hell Bent for Leather and Screaming for Vengeance I think. Have to look at my tape collection, have an independent music store who's interested in it cause it's all metal.
wow shit man grew up on this as a kid in the 80's , i sold popcorn and stuff at the old Salt Palace in Salt Lake new all the staff and guards so they would let me into all shows for free and put me right up at stage fell like I am 11 years old again XD love you guys ..

@@abnertavares4413 That´s ok, I did not get it at first, maybe I should! Pure metal, right on the spot. Saw Judas Priest for the first time on this tour, Defenders of the faith, 84, amazing! Rob Halford, the Godfather of heavy metal. Right?
@@good__wood9945 they got inspired... it's definitely not a 100% copy.. there's nothing unusual for an artist to be inspired by other artists. I actually like the Aria version much more
okey Judas priest fantastic song and the Best band antology Mr Rob Halford heavy metal good forever yeeeeeah guys tanks you very much okey men bye bye bye
I have always wondered where the lyrics in this epic song came from ... "Deadly as the viper, peering from its coil" and so on... Until...until I read Rob's autobiography. Then it made clear sense and justified its excellence!
Used to always play this in my dorm room in college and then one day a friend of mine came up and said.....dude, what is that one song that you play where the guitar is going whah, whah, weeaahh in the solo?? I just laughed and said oh that caught your ear huh. Good times haha 1:55
The priest has been and still is my most favorite heavy metal then mettaica I am not charging in a mosh pit I will watch until nessacelery hee heee may God bless us all and always in Jesus name I pray so let's bring it back to them God willing and it's getting not more gooder the song is godsmack
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16 KJV, Romans 4:5, Ephesians 2:8-9, Jesus Christ is the only way.
