Lyrics
Faster than a bullet
Terrifying scream
Enraged and full of anger
He is half man and half machine
Rides the metal monster
Breathing smoke and fire
Closing in with vengeance soaring high
He is the painkiller
This is the painkiller
Planets devastated
Mankind's on its knees
A savior comes from out the skies
In answer to their pleas
Through boiling clouds if thunder
Blasting bolts of steel
Evils going under deadly wheels
He is the painkiller
This is the painkiller
Faster then a laser bullet
Louder than an atom bomb
Chromium plated boiling metal
Brighter than a thousand suns
Flying high on rapture
Stronger free and brave
Nevermore encaptured
They've been brought back from the grave
With mankind resurrected
Forever to survive
Returns from Armageddon to the skies
He is the painkiller
This is the painkiller
Wings of steel painkiller
Deadly wheels painkiller
He is the painkiller
This is the painkiller
He is the painkiller
This is the painkiller
Pain! Pain! Killer! Killer!
Pain! Pain! Killer! Killer!
Can't stop the painkiller
Pain (pain)

I would say it's the opposite of anything satanic. The biblical return of Jesus is pretty similar in brutality to the painkiller in this song.

He will have a sword in his hand with which he will crush the nations and destroy evil once and for all in a huge battle called Armageddon. Sound pretty metal to me.

I'd say that Black sabbath's into the void would be on par with this song in terms of how heavy it is and what it means to the genre, even if it doesn't have the same vocals (it is a heavier song that goes for weight and momentum of shredding and speed), I'd argue that its own vocals contribute to the story it tells in much the same manner as what goes on here.

They should, British Steel, Screaming for Vengeance, Defenders of the Faith, and Turbo got anniversary editions so I don't see why Painkiller wouldn't get one. A lot of actual Priest fans have Painkiller in a higher regard than those albums but they seem to stick with their most popular works from the 80s.

[@tatsumaru12345]

A couple tweeks to the original 90s painkiller release, or even just releasing it, would be fine! But those 2001 john/rick? astley remasters were awful. More bass guitar, but it lost the great drum sound. The original painkiller cd is the way to go. Or single vinyl even. If it has bonus tracks, or its 2 lps, you have the awful astley version.

Carrying out violence in the protection of innocence and freedom are some of the most noble and good motives I can think of, which makes this song even more badassed.

I remember when I first heard this song back than as a twelve year old, and suddenly my musical universe was extended to vast wide open space devoid of all boundaries. I was fascinated that it's actually humans playing this song - later, when I heard they called Rob "the metal god", I couldn't deny I was a disciple all the time.

[@toparky2470]

the whole album is the definition of metal. Literally no bad or just-to-be-there song in there. DAMN!

[@MachineHead783]

Ihsahn said in a interview made by Metal Maniacs magazine, that this song is the embodiment of all things Metal. Couldn't agree more!

[@guitarrock58]

I agree! I think it's a universal fact at this point that Painkiller is the definition of Heavy Metal, even if it came after Black Sabbath's first song, it truly represents metal the best. The album also is pure metal from start to finish, raw power. Even though it's not my favorite album ever, I won't complain at all if it's considered #1!

[@jeanlingerfelt9613]

I mean, I agree, but i think it misses the bass

[@faggotsmoker9588]

Painkiller's feats: Rides a monster made out of metal which breathes smokes and fire (Rides the metal monster /Breathing smoke and fire) Can destroy planets (Planets devastated) Faster than light (Faster than a laser bullet) Launches metallic projectiles which can harm planetary threats (Blasting bolts of steel/Evils going under deadly wheels) Louder than an atom bomb (Atomic bomb is about 210 db loud, so at least +210 decibels loud. Humans will die by shockwave alone from a sound louder than 200 db. Every 10 db the sound increases 10fold, so he produces shockwaves at least 10x greater than something that can kill people just by moving lol) Coated with boiling metal (Chromium plated boiling metal) 1000x more light energy than the Sun (Brighter than a thousand suns) Can bring the dead back to life (Nevermore encaptured/They've been brought back from the grave) Can grant immortality to the entire human race(With mankind resurrected/Forever to survive) Damn, Painkiller is OP.

The music isn't Power Metal, but the whole theme of a badass cyborg space angel absolutely is.

[@TheHunter77632]

I know now this is not power metal this is more thrash metal cause power metal would be stuff like dragon force not even close to that so sorry guess I was pretty delusional last year lol

[@hallotschuess1133]

I'm 30 and I grew up with linkin park and other bands but this shit beats everything that's been released in the last 20+ years. When people ask " what is metal?" this is the song to show them.

[@retrix9169]

A bit different, but I also recommend Rammstein

[@RS-ol8or]

Yeah. Metal in the 90s , what was popular anyway, was largely a joke. Grunge, nu metal, etc. Now there were artistically some great bands such as Soundgarden, but nothing like some acts like this.

[@kylel8605]

@@RS-ol8or Grunge was fucking glorious but it wasn't metal. Some Nu metal did fine. I'm still outraged by the Metallica St Anger album. Such trash. Hardcore did fine as well. Overall though, it took us a while to get anything like this and even when we did it was lackluster. Prog metal is where it's at now though. Nothing else is really worth a shit. Classic rock and metal, and prog/math rock

[@johnduggan5748]

Someone needs to make some comic book or tv show just about the things Judas Priests sings about, have the painkiller as the protagonist and make him just as badass as in the song which given the song shouldn’t be to difficult

[@mrbigstuphvt]

"WHY ARE WE NOT FUNDING THIS?!"

[@rubricscube_]

It shouldn't be crazily commodified. I think the coolest thing for me to see would be a short (~10-15 min) CGI film, like the Astartes series. A comic would also be pretty cool though.

[@sleuthentertainment5872]

The Priest finally take us beyond our imagination as they never did before, to a realm of adventure and fantasy, fire and iron, blood and steel, rain and lightnings altogether, where the axes of gods slash mountains and kill blasphemers, spreading the sacred word of pure heavy metal. Let's ride the chromium-plated metal horses raising the horns along with the rusty-armours knights and Priest to the head of the Metal Battalion through the dark paths of Hell. It's a worthwhile and never-to-be-forgotten adventure.

Glenn Tipton's guitar solo blows my head off every time I hear it, those arpeggios sound like nothing I've ever heard before. Has to be one of the best guitar solos to come out of 90's metal music, or even written in general. Up there with what Marty Friedman was doing with megadeth on rust in peace
