Best Heavy Metal Song Ever!!! Judas Priest “Pain Killer” (Reaction)

[@tjsogmc]

there is enough metal in this song to build two aircraft carriers.

[@victorcoburn2791]

Very well said sir😈👍

[@itachileesan]

@@victorcoburn2791 Agreed well said. so metal its its own element

[@scottsteel2395]

And have enough left for a Destroyer and a Battleship.

[@nobodynotme4840]

How about a Death Star.

[@LuisHernandez-sf5hf]

For ww3

[@robertfinck1275]

When you look up Heavy Metal in the dictionary this song should be the definition.

[@manimalace3861]

He held that note for 20 seconds at the end!! Rob is the greatest

[@fredtello]

man she followed right along with those solos....... she was feeling it.....it's a gift

[@abdeton1899]

This is the GREATEST metal song of all time. The musicianship is other-worldly!

[@bluecomet1109]

This song is as metal as it gets

[@dimitrisnikoloulis4071]

You don't mess with Judas Priest . Turbo power!

[@joshgrant824]

The evolution of Glenn’s guitar playing is outstanding

[@TheCornishCockney]

50years of crashing metal. Listen to Priest and your adrenalin jumps out of its box. What a band.

[@one-eye1721]

The 'Painkiller' album was Judas Priest's answer to the thrash metal that had come up in the 80s. They saw bands like Metallica and Anthrax and were like "You think you're heavy? Then get a load of this..."

[@insanerhardstyle5872]

and u never underestimate British in Metal even if the drummer is American

[@MovieGuy666]

actually it was the answer for Rob digging Pantera.

[@danielmatthews6828]

As a child of the 80's Judas Priest had a lot of influence in my life. They are true metal gods. So now you understand why us metal heads headbang and play air guitar. As you said it is like a spirit entered into your body. That is hitting it on the head. I really enjoyed this reaction. Rock on!!

[@theripper2811]

🤘 The most representative song of Heavy Metal ... riffs ... solos .... and howls!!! 👍

[@ValvolineKid]

Speed, power, and aggresiveness. That's what this band is all about. Power Metal 🤘🤘

[@robertpetre9378]

The most metal song ever written in my opinion it is so over the top 🖤🎼🤘💀🎸☠️🇬🇧

[@metalchump4722]

One of my dads favorite bands. He has seen them live countless times. Glad I was raised on rock and metal music 🤘🏻

[@davidknichal6629]

Tell your fatha he got his job done

[@jamescarletta802]

You were raised right

[@RJ-9ers]

Painkiller puts it’s foot on your throat and doesn’t let up until it’s done. Great reaction🤘

[@johnc94]

I've seen Judas Priest live 10 times they never disappoint one of the best heavy metal groups ever

[@davidmatthews7766]

i've only seen them once, many years ago ,the ram it down tour. truely an unforgettable experience.

[@rockerforlife194]

Judas Priest: The Godfathers of Heavy Metal! BAR NONE! Great job guys!

[@stephenhitchen8753]

Its funny to think that when I first heard painkiller back in 91 , it was nothing really special as my brother and I were listening to black, death,thrash. Now as the years go by you realise how special this track is, whilst a lot of what you listened to has faded into the mists of the past.

[@davidmatthews7766]

@Gee Faded or plain old sold out.

[@charlenewebb5893]

Oh Memories Lol

[@ge-21express34]

Priest, Maiden, and Saxon are on a completely different level.

[@AngryPostmanStockholm]

Aaaah you know music, Judas Saxon (So underrated!!) and not a word about the sadly overrated metallica

[@davidmatthews7766]

i hear you , let's not forget motorhead. lemmy R.I.P . good times for headbangers.

[@reneerichter1263]

They are amazing!! Go down the rabbit hole of Priest...too many songs to mention 👏👏👏

[@m.94]

This is the definition of metal imo , if someone wants to get into metal this is the song i recommend

[@Camroc37]

That pfp always gets me 😂

[@whilberwhateley1209]

Sabbath lit the fire, Priest tossed a canister of Kerosene in

[@deaconj3406]

This aint just Heavy Metal. This is the Metal Gods. This band has 15 years on Iron Maiden and like 20 on Megadeth and Metallica. This track is where everyone starts but I wish they wouldn't. Tends to be too much for some new listeners.

[@XA351GT]

How do you figure that? Priest was formed in 1969 released their 1st album in 1974 , Maiden formed in 1975 and released their first in 1980 . Metallic formed 1981 released their 1st in 1983 and Megadeth formed 1983 and released their 1st 1984/85.

[@AngryPostmanStockholm]

I have same fear when someone introduce people to Judas with painkiller, tends to be too much for new listeners ♥

[@1nt9rn9t-dudewillheim2]

Imagine my whiplash I felt when the first Judas Priest song I heard was "Breaking the Law" and my second was "Pain Killer" XD

[@1nt9rn9t-dudewillheim2]

Imagine my whiplash I felt when the first Judas Priest song I heard was "Breaking the Law" and my second was "Pain Killer" XD

[@davidmatthews7766]

good point i think maybe diamonds and rust or nearly anything from eighties would help get the feel for the priest. my first favourites would have been , rapid fire or freewheel burning.

[@seandooley226]

Judas Priest song off the same album that I think you'll enjoy. Songs called Touch of Evil.

[@anitnec]

Various contaminations for an anthem. This band was between the pioneers of a new kind of music . The guitar works are refined

[@paulm.5979]

Wow, love the reaction. Yes they are a very talented band. The priest put metal into heavy metal. This album is a masterpiece! Its on 10 the whole album. So many songs to listen to, they are still doing it today! You guys need to do a live version of Sentinel 1986 Fuel for Life, or Victim of Changes.

[@flameofudun8447]

Painkiller is freakin amazing. This entire album is fire and is always in my top 3 metal albums of all time. Feel free to enjoy any other song from this album, nightcrawler and metal meltdown are two of my favorites. Your reaction was the most fun I have ever seen someone have with this song. Great work!

[@russells6234]

All Guns Blazing and Hammer And The Anvil are incredible too!

[@markcaldwell2831]

If you have pain then this song will cure it.

[@ericgennette2760]

Judas Priest are the heavy metal gods

[@hwollemann82]

Seen them live at least 10 times and omg soooooo fn amazing!!!!

[@daveneave8311]

Finally you've reacted to one of the greatest metal songs of all time.... by the greatest singer of all time... its the most metal song you'll ever hear...

[@LatinBostonH8ter79]

Remember when I first heard this intro to this album. It sounded like an alcohol fueled drag car reving up and blasting down the strip. Just incredible control and energy at the same time.

[@abhimanyuthapa1348]

National anthem of heavy metal 🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@roypalta7844]

International

Judas Priest, the Metal Gods

[@fresnowoods7612]

Lol I tell you why you guys rock you listen to the songs to the end not many of KZbin listeners do that they always interrupt the song you guys like that ride my favorite Judas priest song ever and that's back in the day and it's still freaking rocks hard thanks for the respect

[@sleuthentertainment5872]

My dad told me when PAINKILLER album came up back in 1990 it caught everybody off guard; even Judas Priest fans didn't expect to be hit like this... With this song and this album, the band took the heavy metal to the category of the fine arts.

[@guibox3]

How in the world do you go from mullet wearing Rob Halford singing milquetoast 'Turbo Lover' to early 1980s melt your face JP metal??

[@nancypowell1860]

Never been a fan of priest but u can't take away from what they did for metal! There metal gods!

[@randycomerford2038]

If you like metal, how can you not be a fan of theirs?

[@largemouthhunter5014]

The Entire album is 💥💥💥💥💪🤘😎

Even MORE Classic priest: Rapid Fire or Hell Bent For Leather! The beginnings of speed metal!

rob king diamond n more are still touring n rocking in their late 60s early 70s

Screaming for Vengeance are another great Judas Priest number

[@7of9RebelHarborth]

Thanks for reacting to Judas Priest. You guys are great! I love your reaction! Subscribed!

[@lantzkeefer6]

That was The Pain Killer,lol.Priest was my first heavy metal love when I first heard them in junior high.Ive seen them twice in 84 and 86, that was 6 years before this was released,damn I'm old,lol. When I first started playing guitar it was alot of Priest for sure.Dont listen to them much anymore but I'll always love their music and Rob Halford the metal God, shout-out to him 🤘

[@metal1sgod833]

Mate you should listen to their last album its awesome, every track is 1000% great.

[@lantzkeefer6]

@@metal1sgod833 I heard a couple tracks really good 🤘

This is a Hall of Fame reaction!!!! You really got high on the solos 🔥 You can imagine how it felt at 16yrs of age in Puerto Rico.

[@smn1085]

you're great people, so much joy and passion for music and life. bless you

[@heavymetalhillbillyhippiew8746]

"The Hellion" + "Electric Eye" , but they have to be played sequentially, because "The Hellion" is really just a badass intro. (some intros are so badass, they became a "song"... checkout "Anesthesia/pulling Teeth" + "Whiplash"(old school Metallica)😉✌ "Bass solo... take one"✊

[@brothadarrell8315]

My favorite performance by the singer of Judas Priest is the LIVE version of Devil's Child 1982. Please give it a view. You guys are great, thank you!

[@yeahboiii6640]

The power of music for all of us and the talented that deliver it to us.

There is just NOTHING sexier than a great looking girl headbanging to extreme Metal. You guys are great. ✌️❤️🤘 to you both.

[@tacobellalugosi2527]

Im shocked this is the Only Song you guys have Reacted to From Priest (thats what us Fans call them), but yeah they have a ton of classic . another thing comin ! Breaking the Law Turbo lover . just to name a few .

[@JC-es5un]

I was just about to suggest that, lol. "Electric Eye" is another great classic. So much phenomenal music from Judas Priest

[@jpace4608]

For the love of god, don't embarrass the metal community with Turbo Lover, or Breaking the Law for that matter. Two horrible representations of metal.

[@JC-es5un]

@@jpace4608 I respectfully disagree, but to each his own.

[@davidmatthews7766]

this is the priest. FYI the first group to actually say they were a heavy metal group. leaders of NWBM movement. ( new wave of brittish metal) halford (lead singer) was responsible for the whole metal look and style throughout the eighties and great part of the nineties.

[@efakter1]

Well Judas Priest has been doing this for over 45 years so they’re extremely talented got a ton of Bangerz You need to get interested in. I wouldn’t even know where to start. But victim of changes would be a good start. Song back in the 70s. There just rock from there

[@davidlefranc6240]

remember the first time ive taped this song it was something else in early 90s holy shit !!! good review you got your painkiller for the day period lmao

[@thunderspike1892]

The guitarist Glenn Tipton were unfortunately diagnosed with Parkinsons Disease in 2018 and had to leave the band. Singer Rob Halford has a voice that reaches over 5 octaves. He also have played in his own bands Fight and Halford. You should check out Fight - Contortion, Into the Pit or Nailed to the Gun. Fight also features drummer Scott Travis from Judas Priest and Racer X and guitarist Russ Parrish also known as Satchel from Steel Panther

[@JoshSullivan1986]

It's definitely not the dude from Steel Panther

[@thunderspike1892]

@@JoshSullivan1986 Fight has Russ Parrish also known as Satchel and Scott Travis as members. On the Painkiller video it's of course Glenn Tipton and KK Downing on guitars.
