Hi all,
I have noticed that there is no other poll about Judas albums other than one for favourite seventies album. So here is the poll. I can,t include all albums from 1980 on, because there are many, so I will try to cover their golden age as much as possible.

I think you meant amazing...
Hahaha, ok, maybe not. I think it's great though.
I dunno... the lyrics are outrageously dumb, and the way Rob sings them is so ridiculous.  I guess you could say in a way its so bad its good, but... 
I do love the solo in that song though. xD

Damn, out of this material deciding between Screaming and Defenders is a tough one. I think I'll go with Screaming for now though. Although the peaks of Defenders are higher, Screaming is a bit more consistently awesome and lacks the snoozefest of Heavy Duty/Defenders of the Faith at the end. Always tends to leave a hint of a bad taste in my mouth at the end of an otherwise completely awesome album, just for the fact that both those tracks seem completely pointless. I think Defenders would probably be better than Screaming if it was more consistently awesome in the way that Screaming is.
The 70s material is where the really good stuff is found though, and the real top 3 albums of Judas Priest would be:
1. Sad Wings of Destiny
2. Stained Class
3. Sin After Sin
I'd also like to add that Ram It Down would probably be better than Painkiller if it was more consistent.

This the exactly the reason why "Defenders.." isn't my top Priest album outside of the 70's material. I chose "Painkiller", because to me, it has no fillers, and "Screaming..." is also consistently stronger. To end such an amazing album with such a dull, crappy song, it just brings it a bit down for me. When I first ever listened to this album, and saw the title track was at the end, I was eagerly anticipating a really awesome song, instead, it was just a stupid chant tacked on at the end of "Heavy Duty", which for me anyways, is already a very boring song. So it just added to the disappointment. The rest of the "Defenders.." album though, is absolutely top-notch stuff. xD

Yes, Painkiller is a very consistent album, but I actually think Screaming is even more consistent. That album is just awesome from the time the first note starts to the point when the last note fades away. But that doesn't make Painkiller less awesome. The only thing resempling a low point on Painkiller is Living Bad Dreams, and that's still a good song (just not as awesome as some ofthe others). Screaming doesn't have a low point (ok, maybe You Got Another Thing Coming).

You shouldnt count "Living Bad Dreams" though, seeing as that is a bonus track that was added to the remaster/re-release of the album. That song isn't part of the original "Painkiller" album.

Yeah I know, that's why I said "resembling a low point". It's not actually a low point on the album.

Sorry, I thought what you meant by that is that it's an okay/average song, not a bad one. lol *blushing*

Screaming for Vengeance...it was the first Judas Priest album I ever owned and I love it from start to finish. I actually like most of the output from this era (maybe not so much with Turbo), but this is my favorite.

"Painkiller", "Ram It Down" and "Defenders of the Faith" are my favorite Judas Priest albums.
Painkiller has the best sound quality, I mean, production.
