Lyrics:
We've taken too much for granted
And all the time it had grown
From techno seeds we first planted
Evolved a mind of it's own
Marching in the streets
Dragging iron feet
Laser beaming hearts
Ripping men apart
From what I've seen of perfection
Where we could do as we please
In secrecy this infection
Was spreading like a disease
Hiding underground
Knowing we'd be found
Fearing for our lives
Reaped by robot's scythes
Metal gods
Metal gods
Metal gods
Metal gods
Machines are taking all over
With mankind in their command
In time they'd like to discover
How they can make their demand
Better be the slaves
To their wicked ways
But meeting with our death
Engulfed in molten breath

JUDAS PRIEST = METAL GODS

[@Steely_Fran]

"Metal Gods" is one of Priest tunes that has gotten heavier, and better sounding over the years. When I saw them play this in 2009, I was speechless over how incredible it sounded. "Rapid Fire" too.

[@derekrodriguez6030]

It's sounds way better now

[@neuvocastezero1838]

And, unfortunately, exponentially more relevant.

[@vplexico]

Rob changed how he sings the words "Metal Gods" the second time in the verse. On the album it's the same as the first one. Live, he goes up higher for the second one, and it makes the song better.

[@ingleringlet-snipps3rd449]

Rob always does that walk like his feet are stuck in concrete while "Marching in the streets, dragging iron feet." Jesus, I have seen them about 6 times. They never disappoint .

My opinion Judas Priest's contribution to metal is beyond any other band in history.

[@scottvail1437]

They are what Metal is.

[@johnmcneely1184]

I agree and you hear very few bands that made metal great like Judas Priest.IHalford was able to come out closet which I admit stunned me at the time but I think his followers really could care less because he is a metal god .

[@AntonioTorres-mo8bp]

Not really, Sabbath invented Metal, but I love Priest anyway

[@insane_assailant1197]

@AntonioTorres-mo8bp they maybe invented it but Preist took it far and beyond consistently through the decades.Their contribution is second to none

Not really ......., many metal bands have contributed too.

So heavy - and yet so funky at the same time. Insane groove, nuclear riffs, stratospheric vocals.

[@wayneoneal7952]

I know that's right!!! After that aside from a few and I mean few good songs they had drifted from who they were trying to appease the younger crowds and the speed metal thrash metal which I have no use for when compared to the material JP put out during the 70s to early 80s!!!

Screaming for Vengeance 1982 and Defenders of the Faith 1984? Maple leaf Gardens Toronto. My best teenage memories of concerts. Both times the downtown was wrecked. LSD Was very popular back then.

[@deebedwell580]

I have to admit - when I think of them, it’s really that ‘81 through maybe ‘86 period. When I look at most comments, though - I seem to be in the minority. And that ‘82 tour had Maiden opening, so - an added bonus.
