Another perfect album for me. Its rather in the commercial half but nearly all the songs here are great. OK, Take on this world is probably the weakest Judas Priest song ever, but who cares.

Yep, "Take on the World" is often referred to as a LUNKHEADED ANTHEM. It's a shocker.

"Take On The World" worst Priest song? Quite possibly... though the worst songs on "Turbo" sure run it close!
Compared with the likes of "Stained Class" and "Sad Wings Of Destiny", this is definitely a weaker album in comparison, but there are a lot of great songs on this one. Some really underrated, like "Burnin' Up".

United is even worse than Take On The World

United even surpasses it in mornoheaded football anthemness. But Take On The World is of course also extremely dire

At least they haven't played Take On The World live for quite some decades now and it takes only 2 minutes. United on the other hand...
But I generally agree with the people here, this (which is entitled just Killing Machine) is a classic album and another of Priest's albums that was a huge influence on the metal scene overall. The guitar duel in The Green Manalishi has been redone over and over, including by Priest themselves.

Forgot about that song. You're probably right about it being worse. I also reckon the album it is on - British Steel is weaker than Killing Machine, which I really quite like as an album.

A (dis)honourable mention should also go to 'Red, White & Blue'. Another terrible 'anthem' type song. Rubbish.

The album is called Hell Bent For Leather in the US hence that name in between []

100% agreed. British Steel is actually quite a weak album over all.

I dunno about that, at least "United" provides a bit of amusement, "Take On The World" is just dull. 
About "Killing Machine" being better than "British Steel"... they are very similar albums in a lot of ways, but I think "Killing Machine" is marginally the better album. And of course, "British Steel" is quite overrated, even though some of the songs on it are great.

Of course I knew that, but it's only titled like that because of record company bullshit.. to me it will always be Killing Machine.

The album should have ended with "Before The Dawn" and the album would be perfect. But unfortunely Evil Fantasies and the bonus tracks are included, the worst tracks they have created.
