"Pounding the world... like a battering ham!"

[TakenbyForce78]

We should find the 4 people that disliked this and kick um in the nuts

[Kewln00b]

Don't like Judas Priest? Cool, in that case I don't like your life.

Now, One of these things have to die now. And I'll tell you right now it WON'T be Judas Priest.

[zcg3]

@Kewln00b Cool...then I guess you'll be listening to JP while in prison...

[nivlaranadna]

I will be flying to Singapore from the Philippines to watch Judas Priest's show there. Seeing them perform this song live will make me lose my mind. This was the first Priest song I heard and I loved it instantly.

[sbzombie69]

This is pure Metal. No frills, no gimmicks, just pure, solid Metal. No blues based influence. HEAVY METAL!!!

[cormermusic]

@sbzombie69 There is definitely blues influence here. Play this main riff to a slower chilled out drum beat. It's a blues riff on the M Pentatonic scale.

[Blaa3141]

@cormermusic This riff is probably in A minor just like many JP song just saiyan

[oldchick888]

this song brings it right home in the words of the bass player husband i have from a great band take me home fat boy in house joke...........

[XenaXerxes666]

Strangulating effort,priest rules...

[VVROCK11]

I got British Steel for Christmas!

[oldchick888]

@VVROCK11 who ever gave you that knows there shit enjoy............

[moremetalthanyou71]

Sacred Reich does a good version of this with Rob on Guest vocals.

[barkingwolf1]

woah sounds like Exploited's UK82! Stunning!!!

[Oni64]

@barkingwolf1 NWOBHM influence on UK82 was there \m/

[Killride]

Metallica with Rob Halford + this song last night = AMAZING AWESOMENESS!

[fuckjustinbieber66]

@Killride Metallica has nothing on Judas Priest - ABSOLUTELY NOTHING

[behemoth1966]

@fuckjustinbieber66

Metallica nothing? lol  you are Metalheads? I think you should listen Justin Bieber my friend..

Metallica and Judas Priest are two major band in the history of metal !

[therestimenow]

@behemoth1966 Personally, I don't like Metallica. But that's besides the point. Not saying there's anything wrong with them, but I agree with fuckjustin. Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, and especially Black Sabbath, invented metal. Metallica just aren't of the same caliber.

[jacoo66]

@therestimenow They arent even from the same generation of metal. Of course metallica isnt like judas priest black sabbath and iron maiden, but they all influenced them, and they helped shape what THERE generation of metal sounded like.

[therestimenow]

@jacoo66 Alright, they shaped THEIR generation of metal, but the bands I listed created heavy metal, the original. Metallica helped create thrash metal, a sub genre of metal.

The way I see it, it's like comparing the inventor of chocolate, to the creator of the kit kat bar.

[jacoo66]

@therestimenow I totally get that Judas Priest, ect were all key players in inventing heavy metal. Metallica, Testament, Slayer and so on made heavy metal heavier. Im definately not dissing any of the bands were talking about. I love every band we've both mentioned so far. I agree that you can't compare Metallica to Judas Priest, because they're just too different.

[boneclub24]

@behemoth1966 He didn't say they were nothing. He said they had nothing on Judas Priest. Major difference.

[behemoth1966]

@boneclub24 I do not understand what you said! metallica is metallica and judas priest is judas priest! led zeppelin black sabbath judas priest iron maiden saxon motorhead metallica megadeth slayer exodus manowar pantera celtic frost type o negative immortal machine head dimmu borgir legion of the damned all these band are very good, but different periods..and they are all major band!

[nimrodel33]

priest!!!!priest!!!!priest!!!



[Brewzkier]

I saw this last night in Miami. I flew from California to see the show. It was worth it!

[l0lwutbro]

@Brewzkier That must have been great! =)

[killer92173]

This is a killer song live!!!! >:D

[TOSportsFan1990]

Absolutely perfect concert opener, when that curtain drops is truly a beautiful moment

[qcpat]

Seeing them tonight! Hail NWOBHM and hail the metal gods, Judas Priest!

[1AGELESS1]

The OPENER !! oh hell yea......ol skool here, in the house ! Can't wait for show this Saturday - in that dump, Reading, Pa. Love when Metal comes to the crappy small cities. It's where it became BIG anyway ! The Metal Heads didn't all live in f'g NYC, Philly n LA. All the old Bands gritted their way, and carved their nitch in the backwoods, small towns n cities across the USA. In fact, Philadelphia didn't give two sh--- about Metal and Hard Rock back then. it's a known fact. Rock on...

[Blainebambambam]

This JAMS

[sabbathfreak1]

BIRMINGHAM,UK! ALSO HOME OF SABBATH!

[11Jakubczak]

JUDAS GRAĆ KURWA MAĆ!!!

[ShadetreeMortician]

I love the lyrics to this, because they're just one extremely-metal statement after another, but when you listen to them all the way through they never add up to anything but complete nonsense! It's great! :) It's like the perfect, most-metal metal song ever.

[sabbathfreak1]

HAIL TO BRITISH METAL! THEY ARE THE METAL GODS!

[Grinderblack]

Pure metal!

[Arzeliusus]

Rapid Fire, Breaking The Wall and Metal Gods, must to be my favorites in this album

[tariksba]

this old and first version is better than the new one

[TheBellTollsForMe]

To-Fucking-Morrow... I'm so goddamn excited... I'm listening to every song in chronological order to see how far I can get. Tuesday I got from Rock n Rolla to the end of Stained Class, let's see how far I get on a longer shift lol

[Levinsnakeful]

Brits make the best music.

[fierrote]

@Levinsnakeful, you got that right. They are the Masters of Metal music. Sabbath, Priest, Maiden, Motorhead, Saxon, Tygers of Pang Tang...

[MikeTheKingScorp1993]

What are the most important / influential albums of Judas Priest?

[salernosam94]

@MikeTheKingScorp1993 Sad Wings of Destiny, Sin after Sin, and Stained Class

[MikeTheKingScorp1993]

@salernosam94 No British Steel and Screaming for Vengeance and Defenders of Faith???? :O

[salernosam94]

@MikeTheKingScorp1993 Those are the most famous, but the ones that I mentioned were the most influential. If you you don't believe me look it up on allmusic.com, or just ask anybody that has heard their early stuff.

[bloodstar58]

@MikeTheKingScorp1993 all of them

[MikeTheKingScorp1993]

@bloodstar58 Please be more specific man i need only their best of the best.

[bloodstar58]

@MikeTheKingScorp1993 well, they're very best albums are screaming for vengeance, defenders, stained class, and painkiller

[nri222]

@MikeTheKingScorp1993 Sad Wings of Destiny, Stained Class and Painkiller are their best. British Steel and Screaming For Vengeance are their most accessible. Listen to all 5.

[Metalrocker12384]

@nri222 What about Defenders of the Faith Hell Bent for Leather and Angel of Retibution? They were awesome albums too.

[nri222]

@Metalrocker12384 Those were good albums, but not their best imo.

[sabbathfreak1]

That's right. Also the home of Ozzy, Bill, Tony, and Geezer. BLACK SABBATH!

[Xerosnake90]

[drquesadilla]

@bloodstar58 Don't shoot the messenger, man; this stuck-in-the-21st-century dickweed was dissing the Metal Gods, so there's no other logical explanation.

[bloodstar58]

@drquesadilla alright. keep rockin \m/

[remiisapowerslave]

@asfandunleashed holy fucking shit! this coming from someone who listens to lady gaga? please go showered yourself with gasoline, light a match and fucking die with shame for not knowing good music.

[1234roadking1]

[MetalMistress888]

I saw Priest open with this song last week live in concert on their Epitaph tour.

After 40 years they are still "POUNDING the world" :-)))

[immortalbc1]

watching these guys in a few days xD can hardly wait



[SilverWingsOfMorning]

Very cool song. At first, I thought all the songs on British Steel were too generic-sounding, but on this song, there's something about the music and the way Halford sings that's very unique. The way the sings "forging the furnace for the final grand slam" is almost like he's smiling at the power of the imagery and not taking it too seriously. Same thing with the song Metal Gods. These two songs especially stand out to me. The combination of the music and Haldford's voice are perfect.

[cloudtool]

i just cant stop headbanging...this kind of music makes my blood boil like hell.

[Austrelopitecus]

Leaving a trail of destruction that's second to nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­NNNNNEEEE!!!!

best heavy metal band ever!

[slay3r43v3r]

the beginning of this song it reminds me A LOT of slayer's Behind The Crooked Cross...doesn't it?? great song btw!!

[1EVILTARD]

good shit!!!!

[TheEdhoyt]

i think we should alll go fuck tipper and roll off her light up a cigarette and blast this song on her stereo.

[HenRisHently]

at 2:34 it feels good....

[breakfastMcgull]

@ultimaflo shut the fuck up about justin bieber

no one cares about him

[SpikeMichaels]

@breakfastMcgull No shit, every fucking metal video I check out has some asshole saying "25 people" or whatever the number is..."25 people like Justin Bieber..." ha, ha, wow, funny, hey, you know what....forget about Justin Bieber...fucking Justin Bieber......

[americanliberal09]

[Hardrocker74]

Performed live at Gods of Metal 2011 in Milano (Italy) on June 22 as opening track.

[PunChonChin]

I lift heavier when I hear this !!!

[TheRubeyRubes]

<3

[ZSwierczynski]

If this play on the Radio, I would listen to the radio more often.

[orioleman5]

Rock&Roll anthem, my ears are still ringing since 1980 after seeing these guys leaning on the stage @ Ag Hall in Allentown; talk about loud!!!!!!!!!! OMG

[deltapunk]

if this song was played once on the radio, America would be in worst caos then the middle east.

[facuriosan]

god disliked this vid because the song is to much for him

[SuperMiller500]

YEP THE SONG THEY ONLY PLAY ON RADIOS HERE IN OKLAHOMA CITY IS

 YOU GOT ANOTHER THING COMING FOR YEARS NO OTHERS

[EnterTheTurmoil]

people would piss their pants and crash their cars if they heard this music on their radio, it's outside the realms of what the common man can handle.

[EnterTheTurmoil]

priest fucking rules, good metal is not radio friendly, that's why good metal isn't on the radio.

[johnniboy1]

This in my opinion is probably the finest heavy metal album ever made....the vocals blow away anything made these days....Rob at his finest!!

[MrSd40jk]

An opera i'd say : beautiful :) excellent

[MrSd40jk]

An opera !!

[KurtMoss]

it's awesome because of the cheese... i saw the 78 tour, nice...

[MrMudip666]

"pounding the world, like a battering ram"

that is so fucking metal

[tyrant1505]

They started upping the tempo of metal with Stained Class, then Killing Machine, then.......... Does NOT get any better than this..........period!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!

[KukulcanZ]

@keith81081 Ripper was not that bad, Jugulator was a good work too imho.

[achromat666]

"Wielding the axe Comes the one culmination That's always seemed Certain to bring down the curtain on greed Sifting the good from the bad It's the age for the rage of the Dogs which must fall to the just And be free Now grate for the vandals Who trampled and sampled Till this place conditioned Brought forth demolition to war The slipping and sliding Corrosive subsiding That withered and waned Till the world seemed all drained Fills the bay" That's all I have to say.

[universalself]

twin guitar marauder

[progressivelectro]

This is the True Heavy Metal

[wayupinya1]

This was the last great Priest album. Point of Entry and Vengeance were good, but they were the sign of the decline.

[VideoGameMetal01]

Judas Priest...

The first band to play ALL METAL, ALL THE TIME!!!

[bretwalda100]

For me, Painkiller was the last bona fide Priest album...it died after that. The original lineup's back together but it's not the same - Rob's lost his mojo.

[ACDCTheBiggesFanACDC]

@bretwalda100

wrong , tbh i love all judaspriest albums from RockaRolla to Nostradamus , they r i belive the only band who has each album UNIQUE but keeping the True HeavyMetal feel

[hermygagala]

@keith81081 Yeah I read someones comment on another vid of priest and they said that their decline in great music began when they put out British Steel which I completely disagree with. I honestly think that all of their albums are great. However I personally thought Jugolator and Demoliton didn't live up to the albums with Rob singing, nevertheless still great albums.

[Grinderblack]

Pure and uncontaminated Heavy Metal in 1980! Priest is the law!!!

[holykirby95]

noone should care how old you are for listening to awesome music like this :D you start listening to it younger the better just to say my grandma listens to this so she kicks ass

[SPPoncho88]

Back in 1984, this was the song our band entered in our high school's "air-band" contest. After we completing the song, all the judges looked at us like, "wtf is this noise?". Knowing we didn't make it to the final show, we flipped the "Duran Duran" judges off and walked off the stage. WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO BEING FULL OF LIFE AND LIVING IT TO THE EDGE??!?

[weirdalyankosin]

@SPPoncho88 you school had an "air-band" contest????

[RenePN]

Fuck!!!! Rapid Fire....

[WallSpace]

judas priest is going to stop their world touring now.. :(
