Judas Priest released their fifth studio album Killing Machine (Hell Bent for Leather) on October 9th, 1978, making it the only Judas Priest album released the same year as the previous one (Stained Class). And while such bands as Black Sabbath took a back seat, and the NWOBHM hasn't fully taken its shape yet with Iron Maiden only starting their journey, with Killing Machine (Hell Bent for Leather) Judas Priest changed the game, and introduced the new fashion style which got quickly accepted as the standard for Heavy Metal. In addition, they've broadened their musical horizons, making Killing Machine (Hell Bent for Leather) probably one of the most significant albums in the band's discography.
So in this episode, as a part of our Defenders of the Faith Series we will take a look at some of the lesser known facts about Killing Machine, and hopefully answer the question of why is it so important for Judas Priest and Heavy Metal overall.
