[@adamrwallis]

It's clear how much thought went into this ranking, mate! Great video! I personally would have had Turbo and Jugulator a lot higher. Outside of that, we have very similar lists. Can't wait to catch the Invincible Shield tour! Also, thanks so much for the shoutout :)

[@metalheadcarshow]

I think i changed a handful of albums 3 or 4 times. But thanks! And no worries about the shout out

[@metalheadcarshow]

Nice! Cool to see Stained Class that high up

[@calvertphoto]

Definitely agree with putting Jugulator and Demolition at the bottom. For me, the problem is with the production, which I believe was done by Tipton. He's a brilliant guitarist, but the same can't be said about his production skills. A lot of the songs started with unnecessary and silly sound effects, and/or were too long-winded. As an example, songs like 'Burn In Hell' and 'One On One' would have been much better if they were cut down in length to make them tighter. Plus the rapping in 'Metal Messiah', was just embarrassing to listen to. Then you had the boxy sounding guitars (particularly on Demolition). It's a pity because Tim Owens is a great singer, and he didn't get the songs that really demonstrate his vocal abilities.

[@metalheadcarshow]

Agreed. I didn't mention the odd intros. But, ya that also something worth noting. When you mentioned Tipton is a awesome guitarist, but not great at mixing. That reminded me of Annihilator. Jeff Waters. Amazing Guitarist. But left alone to make Remains. Terrible Production

[@markgoldman3334]

Agree somewhat. Top 3 are Defenders, Vengeance and Painkiller. Any order works. There’s no argument if ur a true JP fan.

[@metalheadcarshow]

Clearly I'm into those albums. But I wouldn't say a true fans needs to like whatever. I'm sure there's some weirdo who loves Preist, and their top 3 albums are Defenders, Turbo, and Ram It Down

[@davidburns6284]

Definitely like your top 3, although I would have Screaming for Vengeance above Angel of Retribution for sure. I agree also, Invincible Shield is really good. My #1 and #2 can change depending on the day. I really dig both of those. My ranking: 1. Screaming for Vengeance 2. Painkiller 3. Defenders of the Faith 4. British Steel 5. Invincible Shield 6. Stained Class 7. Hell Bent for Leather 8. Firepower 9. Angel of Retribution 10. Redeemer of Souls 11. Sad Wings of Destiny 12. Sin After Sin 13. Jugulator 14. Demolition 15. Ram it Down 16. Point of Entry 17. Rocka Rolla 18. Turbo 19. Nostradamus

[@metalheadcarshow]

Solid list. I fully understand I have some unpopular options about priest albums. With that said, I'm surprised to see the Ripper albums that high on your list

[@davidburns6284]

@@metalheadcarshow The albums below Jugulator and Demolition are pretty bad for me. Never listen to them. At least the Ripper albums are heavy and have some real intensity. I'm all about that.

[@metalheadcarshow]

​@@davidburns6284fair enough!

[@metalheadcarshow]

First time I've seen British Steel that low but I get it.

[@FFMM7]

Maybe you don't understand the "British Steel" album artistic conception.Otherwise the "Breaking the Law","Rapid Fire","Steeler", "The Rage" and the "Grinder" are great songs also.And "United" and the "Living After Midnight" have great feeling too.

[@curly_wyn]

I’m with you on British Steel, although I don’t place it that low. It’s overrated as FUCK!

[@curly_wyn]

@@FFMM7 Breaking the Law and Rapid Fire are great; Grinder is good; Steeler, Metal Gods and The Rage are very mediocre; aaaaaand… You Don’t Have to Old to Be Wise and especially United and Living After Midnight are awful lame and cheesy garbage!

Cool! First time seeing Stained Class on top

[@porkins74]

All aboard the Nostradamus love train! Glad I'm not the only one.

[@metalheadcarshow]

It gets too much hate

[@davidcottone2700]

Ram it down over sad wings of destiny 🤔

[@metalheadcarshow]

Fully aware that's a unpopular opinion. I love what they did with Ram It Down. It was also my first Priest album. So it has a special place with me

[@eijiroinouye4115]

I am starting to like Point of Entry more and more. Is the album too soft?

[@metalheadcarshow]

Not sure if I would call it too soft. I think it just doesn't have as many bangers on it as the album prior or after

[@eijiroinouye4115]

@@metalheadcarshow OK 👍

[@Imorajna]

My personal top 3 are Painkiller, Ram It Down and Sad Wings of Destiny

[@metalheadcarshow]

That's actually a super cool combo. Haven't seen anyone put those 3 together

[@Bunbunfunfun]

Huge thumbs down on your video and won't be coming back. Watch some youtube on how to produce your audio have to crank it to hear you then the music is five times louder . If you are going to present learn the tech aspects dude. Cant watch a video like this I am out

[@metalheadcarshow]

I've been having some mic issues recently. So that video and some others are recorded on a phone mic. They will eventually be fixed, but working with that I got. Peace out

Painkiller that low?

It's (normally) overrated, yes. ;-)
