Judas Priest Albums Ranked!

[@999predators]

Sad Wings and Stained Class really defined that Heavy Metal sound for future generations to come.

[@thrallsofmetal]

Necrotic Nick- 100% agree here, man!

[@Nadinetherescuehound]

Between the hammer and the Anvil is my favorite solo of all time how Tipton turns that note into a harmonic without retouching the string is insane. And that's coming from a maiden fan

[@67heavyduty]

First part until 2.50 is from K.K. and after 2.50 when it goes harmonic it is Glenn.

[@thrallsofmetal]

Necrotic Nick- It would hard for me to pick a favorite solo on that album. They're all rippers in my opinion.

[@Nadinetherescuehound]

@thrallsofmetal dude, how the hammer hits the anvil like a bass drum in the build-up to the solo is all time. Those bastards knew how to create tension in their music.

[@scottthompson4193]

RAM IT DOWN is gravely underrated imo!! Halfords voice is glass on that album.

[@thrallsofmetal]

Necrotic Nick- It's got its moments but it's also got it's issues in my book. I love the title track though. That song rules.

[@Masterdebater1313]

"United, Take On The World Part 2: United Boogaloo" that's why you guys are the best. 🤘

[@curly_wyn]

Yep, terrible song lol

[@JxT1957]

67 and just began listening to judas priest. great band, recently purchased painkiller and ram it down. metallica fan.

[@rotthrough8904]

The greatest to ever do it. 1. Stained class - faultless on all levels. An immutable classic as immediate and catchy as it is dark and perturbing. The greatest heavy metal album of all time. 2. Painkiller - Priest weaponised. A surging behemoth wrought of juggernaught riffs and the very quintessence of metal itself. 3. DOTF - the apex of 80's priest. With thrash ascendant, priest showed the young blood that it yet had much to learn. 4. Sin after sin - starbreaker. Sinner. Dissident aggressor. Diamonds and rust. Their progressive inclinations honed distilled into a monstrous classic of 70's metal. 5. Firepower - an astonishing late career highlight. Ebola-catchy, spectacular riffwork throughout, proof positive that priest, even after all these years can deliver the goods. This fucking band man. One of my absolute favourites of all time, I'm so goddamn stoked you guys got around to this.

[@davidknichal6629]

Sry bro but I have to borrow your "ebola-catchy" quote. Fabulously infectious.....btw agree on all points. Stained Class probably IS the best 70's album (mine Killing Machine tho) and Firepower deserves all the praise as far as I am concerned

[@thrallsofmetal]

Necrotic Nick- That's a solid top 5.

[@raphaelcamargo7219]

Although it's not Heavy Metal as it would come to be, I'm a huge fan of Sad Wings Of Destiny, it has such different songs in so different styles, this album is a whole music trip. Great work, guys, grind on \m/

[@thrallsofmetal]

Necrotic Nick- Thanks, man! Yeah, I see Sad Wings as a bridge between classic rock and what heavy metal would become. It still has that big 70's rock sound but there's something more sinister bubbling just under the surface. It's a brilliant album.

[@Yaummers]

[@thrallsofmetal]

Necrotic Nick- That's awesome, man. Glad you dug the video, man!

[@davidburns6284]

Great ranking video as always. I really look forward to these. The holy trinity for me will always be Painkiller, Screaming for Vengeance and Defenders of the Faith. These albums are the essence of Priest for me. They do have several albums that are hot manure, but the majority is pretty damn good to classic. Obviously, a VERY important band in the history of heavy metal. 1. Screaming for Vengeance 2. Painkiller 3. Defenders of the Faith 4. British Steel 5. Stained Class 6. Hell Bent for Leather 7. Firepower 8. Sad Wings of Destiny 9. Sin After Sin 10. Jugulator 11. Angel of Retribution 12. Redeemer of Souls 13. Ram it Down 14. Point of Entry 15. Demolition 16. Rocka Rolla 17. Turbo 18. Nostradamus

[@thrallsofmetal]

Necrotic Nick- Thanks, man! This one was a lot of fun to do. Years ago I might have favored 80's Priest over 70's Priest but here lately Stained Class and Sad Wings of Destiny have been some of my go to jams for Priest. Screaming for Vengeance will always be a favorite though. That album is fantastic. Solid ranking here, man.

[@bristout01]

My top 5 1: Defenders of the Faith. This is the album that really got me into JP; I've always known who they are and I heard Breaking the Law and Living After Midnight numerous times on the radio, but this was the album that made me want to dive into more of their discography. The Sentinel and Some Heads Are Gonna Roll (to name a select couple) are fucking fantastic, it just oozes 80s metal (without getting into cheesy glam shit). Yeah the ending is kinda disappointing, but I can look past that because everything else on this album is perfect for me. 2: Painkiller. Goddamn this album is just balls to the wall amazing. The title track literally encapsulates everything I love about this band, and Scott Travis' drumming really allows JP to push into a heavier direction, and they slayed at it. Leather Rebel also has incredible riffs, and Night Crawler has a dark, creepy vibe that I dig. Everybody is on fire on this album. 3: Screaming for Vengeance. Interestingly, I wasn't actually the biggest fan of this album until I heard Electric Eye and Bloodstone, but those tracks made me open up to this album. Since then, I have continuously come back to this album and every so often I will be the humming the riff to songs like the title track and Take These Chains. My biggest complaint is, THEY SHOULD'VE MADE THE HELLION A PROPER SONG! 4: Stained Class. My favorite 70's Priest album, and its influence is undeniable. Exciter is such a fantastic song and so heavy for its time period, and Beyond the Realms of Death is such a dark and beautiful ballad. And the cover of Better By You, Better Than Me is fantastic. This album has aged like a fine wine. 5: British Steel. It might be overplayed and slightly overrated but I believe that this album is the ultimate example of how to perfectly combine heaviness and commercialization. Grinder has such a catchy riff that gets stuck in my head all the time, same with Rapid Fire. Lastly, United might be rotten cheese but at least it matches the album's heaviness, so it's got going for it. Honorable mention: Angel of Retribution. This album is a great comeback album (especially coming off from Demolition), and I fell in love with it soon after listening to Judas Rising, which is probably my favorite Priest song from their modern albums. Hellrider is up there as well, and Revolution is a great throwback song that reminds me of 70's rock, like Led Zeppelin. The production is perfect, the songs overall are timeless, and the cherry on top is the album cover; it's simple but elegant.

[@IdiocyShow]

Nice!!! A Judas Priest ranking (my 3rd favorite band of all time!) on my birthday! Thanks Thralls!🤘🤘🤘

[@thrallsofmetal]

Necrotic Nick- Happy belated birthday, man! I'm glad we gave you something to enjoy on your birthday!

[@MetalOMania]

Agreed on Rays of Summer. It’s like extreme porn…it doesn’t fit….

[@liametheridge9148]

This is a difficult ranking for me, the shit albums are pretty cut and dry in terms of ranking, and I have my top 3 set in stone, but everything else is almost entirely interchangeable. Priest is one of the most important bands in my life and they have released some of my favourite albums of all time. I saw them at Bloodstock in 2021, one of the first festivals to come back in the UK after the pandemic, and it was hands down the most perfect setlist I have ever seen in my life, I would not have changed the order or swapped any songs out for others. I am seeing them again next year with Saxon and Uriah Heep and can't fucking wait, I also absolutely love Panic Attack and think that if that standard is upheld for the rest of the new album, we could potentially have an album that surpasses Firepower. I'll give the ranking a go 18) Nostradamus (yeah this is awful, I've listened to the whole thing just once and wanted to die by the end) 17) Demolition (also awful with no redeeming qualities) 16) Jugulator (Cathedral Spires is fantastic, the rest I really don't care for) 15) Rocka Rolla 14) Ram It Down 13) Point of Entry (the best of the shit albums, Heading Out to the Highway and Desert Plains are great songs, the rest range from decent to mediocre) 12) Angel of Retribution (a massive step up from Point of Entry, from here on out they're all killer) 11) Turbo 10) Killing Machine 9) Sad Wings of Destiny 8) British Steel 7) Redeemer of Souls 6) Sin After Sin 5) Stained Class 4) Firepower (god what a fucking incredible album this is, I remember being astonished at the sheer quality of this when it came out, and for me it's only gotten better. Just maybe a couple of tracks short of being a masterpiece) 3) Screaming For Vengeance 2) Defenders of the Faith 1) Painkiller (a perfect album, and the title track, for me, is the definitive heavy metal song. Easily in my top 10 favourite albums of all time)

[@thrallsofmetal]

Necrotic Nick- I had 6 in contention for the number 1 spot so I get it. This was tougher than I thought it would be but it was also a ton of fun going through these albums and ranking them. This might have been the first band that I associated the term "heavy metal" with as a kid. I haven't seen them since Ozzfest 2004 so I might have to catch them on their arena tour next year. Solid list here too, man!

[@Legions_666]

The thralls have gathered once again to give us another discography ranking!!!! 😎🤘🔥☠️💯🎸🖤

[@thrallsofmetal]

Necrotic Nick- Hope you enjoyed it, man!

[@DamnableReverend]

I agreee with a lot of what Nick says in this video. My top three are Sad Wings, Sin after Sin, and STained Class. But I actually love teh song "last Rose of Summer". It's my favourite "pure" ballad Priest ever did (the second half of Dreamer/deceiver is really heavy!). It's got such an awesome, laid back feeling to it, and almost a bit jazzy at times, with Simon Philips' drums and even Ian Hill's bass (for once!) kind of setting the mood. That album is just magical as far as I'm concerned. It's the S Trilogy that's the best of Priest for me, but we also got.... 5. Painkiller and 4. Screaming for Vengeance.

[@thrallsofmetal]

Necrotic Nick- Thanks, man! Yeah, I really gravitate more towards those early classics more so now. I like the more lavish songwriting a bit more but I do love those 80's gems as well but for different reasons. I still can't really get into Last Rose of Summer though. For me it feels out of place on Sin After Sin and honestly if it wasn't a Judas Priest song I might appreciate it more. Still, that album rules.

[@DamnableReverend]

Yeah, the 70s stuff often sounds like Priest at their smartest -- even the lyrics are sometimes smarter. They never wrote a song like "Savage" after the 70s, and nothing really as emotional as 'Beyond the Realms of Death". Regarding "last Rose of Summer", it seems like featuring at least one somewhat different and arguably out-of-place song on a Priest album might have been a common thing. I'd argue on Stained Class it's of course the cover "Better by You, better than me" -- which rules. In the 80s Priest even made use of outside songwriters, and still managed to make it an acceptable choice on their albums. For me, "Last Rose of Summer" may be Sin after Sin's "weird track", but it totally works -- the instant that opening set of hendrix-like guitar chords starts I feel this charged, warm feeling enter me. I love the lower vocals, the way the guitars and bass play together, the jazzy chorus part (if it is really a chorus)...yeah, really great song for me, far better than many heavy bands' ballad-type songs, up there with the best of Scorpions' softer tunes from the era.

I'm hellbent for...this ranking. Sad Wings is my number 1.

[@thrallsofmetal]

Necrotic Nick- I was the only one with Sad Wings in their top 5... I was a bit disappointed honestly lol.

[@karlricardo4088]

Run of the Mill is one of the greatest songs ever; their first epic IMO. 70's Priest (first 4, I consider Killing Machine/Hell bent to be the first 80's era Priest album) are my favourites tied with Painkiller then Defenders, Screaming, British Steel, Killing, etc

[@jboogedy]

Man what a ranking! Sad I wasn't able to make it live but I should be able to catch the SADUS review live!!! fingers crossed!

[@thrallsofmetal]

Necrotic Nick- Thanks, man! This one was a lot of fun to go over.

[@georgeandritsakis1482]

That Live in London performance is criminally underrated and under appreciated. I got into Priest because of Demolition and the rest is history. Ripper Owens saved them while Rob left to do fight and two.

[@thrallsofmetal]

Necrotic Nick- I don't know if Ripper "saved" Priest but he kept them going until Rob returned.

[@TBliss88]

Hell yeah, I’ve been looking forward to this one! 🤘🏻

[@thrallsofmetal]

Necrotic Nick- I hope you enjoyed it!

[@danielthenorwegianguy]

Fun fact: Reckless off of Turbo was offered to be featured on the Top Gun soundtrack, but Judas Priest turned it down😓

Necrotic Nick- Hey! Thanks, man! Always appreciated. Looking forward to doing more of these in the future for sure.

[@superunknown2812]

@thrallsofmetal was listening to Deicide Legion today and got me thinking you guys should do a ranking of there discography

[@bobvuleta8941]

After months of anticipation, it has finally arrived. 👍 My personal favorite jumps between Stained Class and Defenders of the Faith. My hot take, is that I like Turbo more than Ram It Down, Point of Entry and even British Steel. Are you guys going to go over Dream Theater? They’ve already got 15 full lengths and are working on their next one. Would love to get Shredlord’s take on The Astonishing (Nostradamus v2) 😂

[@takodabostwick8507]

I'm hoping for the Dream Theater ranking as well! Since they love are beloved in the progressive community.

[@thrallsofmetal]

Necrotic Nick- I'm glad you dug the video, man. Yeah, my top 6 were in the running for that #1 spot at one point but Stained Class is just about perfect in my mind. Yeah, we definitely disagree on Turbo lol. I know Shred still wants to do Dream Theater so I suspect we'll do that one at some point.

[@sethklosowski]

Will watch tonight after work! Hopefully getting tickets for either Boston or Bangor Maine in April 🤘🏻

[@thrallsofmetal]

Necrotic Nick- I hope you dug the video, man! Yeah, I might have to go next year for that tour as well.

[@metaltracker1723]

I was officially a metalhead when I heard Green Manalishi on the radio late at night when I was in Jr High. That was the sound I was looking for in my life at the time. Really enjoyed everyone’s picks and have to say Nicks picks are closest to mine. Stained glass is my favorite as well and great to see others think the same. I saw them live on their Screaming for Vengeance and Defenders of the Faith tours in high school and they were amazing. Took both my adult kids to the Fire power tours and warmed my heart to see Glen come on stage. I think I threw up in my mouth when I heard Turbo lover after purchasing and listening for the first time…. Unleashed in the East has to be the greatest live album of all time. Great job guys!

[@thrallsofmetal]

Necrotic Nick- Thanks, man! I think I officially "evolved" into a metalhead much later but this band is up there on the list of the earliest music memories I made so I feel like they've always been with me. Initially I was more into the 80's stuff but as I got older the 70's stuff really speaks to me more now. Screaming for Vengeance will always be a favorite though. Yeah, Turbo still does almost not for me but I think it's more redeemable than Demolition or Nostradamus at least.

[@Oldy-Sepulchre]

Another great ranking!!! I wish you guys did these more often but I totally understand why that's hard to do. And my holy fuckery I wish Shredlord was more regular the channel.

[@thrallsofmetal]

Necrotic Nick- Thanks, man! Yeah, these generally take time to put together and getting schedules to line up can be difficult as well. I'm hoping we get more of Shred on here as well. He's been pretty busy with work and such lately but he'll be back for sure.

[@Oldy-Sepulchre]

@thrallsofmetal all you guys are awesome so it's great seeing the guys we don't see as much anymore with you and Jon. So glad Rin is back too. Just a suggestion for the next round of Discography rankings, but why don't you guys rank some smaller discographies? Like between 7-10 or something. It would just be cool to see more of these next year. Just a thought. Either way, I'll be watching my friend.

Love the songs on Defenders, can’t stand the production. File next to Ram It Down. Awesome episode boys.

[@JCridford]

Another classic for the Thralls roller decks, lads! Great to see you taking on Priest, and some great points made. I love that you highlighted "Bloodstone" and "Riding on the Wind" from Screaming, as I feel they get forgotten about a bit. "The Hellion/Electric Eye" song/intro concept is so influential. I've got to throw "Desert Plains" in from Point of Entry, which I think is an overlooked gem. My top 5: 1. Stained Class - it's perfect and really ahead of its time; 2. Screaming for Vengeance - a lot of nostalgia in here, but ten solid and memorable tracks with some killer standouts; 3. Sin After Sin - Between this and Sad Wings, I really believe the 'metal guitar sound' starts here; 4. British Steel - again, lots of nostalgia for me as a teenager, but the songs kill it; 5. Painkiller - love Chris Tsangarides production and the songs are so good, KK and Glen raised their lead game; no one expected it. I'm also going to say this: I do love Turbo. It's got it's flaws and the production is radical even for that time, but some of the songs are just so damn catchy. Put it on in the car, drive up slowly to your mate at the traffic lights, grab your emergency stick-on moustache from the glove compartment, and wait for fireworks!

[@thrallsofmetal]

Necrotic Nick- Thanks, man! Yeah, this one was a lot fun to go over since this band's influence on metal is pretty much immeasurable. Man, Bloodstone pretty much lives rent free in my head. It's such a catchy song. That's a solid top 5 there. Those are all albums I love for damn sure.

There’s basically three good to great songs (Breaking the Law, Rapid Fire, and Grinder), three mediocre and nothing songs (Steeler, Metal Gods, and The Rage), and three songs that are absolute lame and cheesy trash (You Don’t Have to Be Old to Be Wise, United, and Living After Midnight). ❤

Great video. I wasn't that into Priest in my early years as a metal head until a friend gave me Painkiller. That's been my favorite Priest album ever since. Fun thing about Faulkner, he also played on Christopher Lee's metal album.

[@thrallsofmetal]

Necrotic Nick- I do love Painkiller. Every song on that album is pretty much vicious and to the point. Scott's drum work really kicked up the intensity several notches too. I never knew about Faulkner being on Christopher Lee's metal album. I still haven't really listened to it though. It might be time to finally check that one out.

[@jontavares3524]

Another awesome and funny show! I started getting into music a little more seriously, as a listener when I was about 12 or 13, around 1977. KISS was the first band to catch my eye and ear, on Alive I, but there were a few others like Black Sabbath, Thin Lizzy, Uriah Heep and of course Judas Priest! The first album I heard and bought was Sad Wings Of Destiny and wow, what an album... Have been a Priest fan eversince, and although I have listened to tons of different bands and music genres over the years and love lotes of other bands and artists as well, Metal has always been and with each passing year, my fave genre, taking up about 95% of my listening and buying. I was a huge KISS fan for many years following, but slowly as I discovered more and more bands and and sub-genres within Metal, I eventually gave up on KISS (still appreciate and love their early stuff), but Priest has always an will always be there as one of my fave bands of all time! Yes, like any band or artist with 50 year plus career, it's perfectly understandable that there will be highs and lows. Many line up changes but the essential is still there! Loved what Scott Travis came to add to the band. Was sad to see Rob leave, but furtunately he came back to his frontman position which is his by merit! Then KK left, but in came a young gun, Richie Faulkner and gave the band a real kick in the ass, that the band was so desperatly needing. I really have not had the time to sit down and rank there albums but here are a few of my faves in cronological order: Sad Wings Of Destiny Stained Class Screaming For Vengence Painkiller Firepower Thanks for the great show and keep up the great work! Keep it Metal 🤘🤘🤘

[@thrallsofmetal]

Necrotic Nick- Thanks, man! We appreciate that! These guys definitely bridged that gap between classic rock and what would become heavy metal. I was never much of a Kiss fan but I love Black Sabbath, Deep Purple and Thin Lizzy which were definitely proto-metal in away. This was a lot of fun to rank especially given the impact this band has had on music in general when you break it down. Anyway, I'm glad you dug the ranking! We had a blast doing this one.

[@jontavares3524]

You are most welcome Nick!@@thrallsofmetal I've always loved and had music around, unfortunately life aint always fair and one has to survive... Had a local radio show for around 13 years in the 90s, but all comes to an end. This band is most important in kickstarting what we all know now as Heavy Metal, not to mention that they are still most relevant! Nick & Company, keep up the awesome and fun shows! Stay safe and Keep it Metal 🖤🤘🖤

Defenders is damn near immaculate

[@Duality_of_Man]

I'm ashamed to say I only really just "discovered" Judas Priest at the ripe old age of 19. I grew up hearing my dad listening to them, knew the hits, and a FEW of the "deep cuts" (Metal Meltdown, Night Crawler, a few others). However my first real metal phase was Nu Metal... lord help me) followed by thrash metal (Metallica, Testament, Megadeth, Sacred Reich, etc)... so after that I really was bored by the speed and pacing of Priest, just didn't interest me... However as I've got older I really started to enjoy older rock like Aerosmith, Van Halen, etcetera, and have since come to enjoy that pace and mix, it's not necessarily "heavy" but man is it metal. Planning on dragging my dad to see these guys if they add any dates nearby (currently its just Rockville), not dragging him outta state again like I did for Metallica, but hey, gotta make those memories man. I digress tho from my rant, I'd say British Steel is my favorite from these guys, followed by Screaming For Vengeance, Ram It Down, and Firepower (in that order).

[@thrallsofmetal]

Necrotic Nick- Hey, better late than never! I was a teen in the nu metal era and I still have a small soft spot for certain bands but I started with thrash and death metal so I have more love for that stuff. My ma always listened to a lot of classic rock and when I was a kid in 80's Judas Priest was all over the radio so they've kinda always been there for me when it came down to my musical upbringing. Rock and metal intersect a lot so there's nothing wrong with jamming some killer classic rock at all.

[@ilves6664]

Hello! PAINKILLER and Defenders of the Faith are me the Judas Priest albums what i listen often. And Firepower is a solid album.

[@thrallsofmetal]

Necrotic Nick- I mean you named off 3 excellent albums there in my opinion.

[@bobilly]

Sort of like Motorhead, with any band that has such a large discography I like to divide their career into about 3 phases. The early, mid, and later period sounds. I think Stained Class is damn hard to beat for the 70s almost-prog heavy metal sound like you all said. Screaming or Defenders is likewise the peak of their mid-period "80s" sound. For me, once you hit Painkiller...how do you ever follow that?! There's great songs on Angel of Retribution and the albums beyond, but once you hit the peak of speed, heaviness, and songwriting that is Painkiller, it's like a double-edged sword. It towers and overshadows everything that came after.

[@thrallsofmetal]

Necrotic Nick- Agreed. Priest has been around long enough to see the musical landscape shift multiple times and have been part of the reason it shifted in some cases. I personally love the 70's stuff. The songwriting is possible at it's best in my opinion with how lavish the songs can be but I also love most of the 80's stuff since I'm a child of the 80's. They haven't beat Painkiller in my mind since it's release but Firepower came really close. I have high hopes for the new one as well.

[@tjcaruthers5593]

At least the closet door is opening to the fact that Turbo Lover is a good song. It's alot like I was Made for Loving You from KISS. Nobody wants to admit it but it is what it gloriously is good poppy songs from hard rock bands. Painkiller came out of left field. Nobody anticipated this album especially after Ram it Down. I'm from the Reno/Sparks area where the trial took place. Painkiller reestablished Judas Priest as metal gods and then Halford left.

[@thrallsofmetal]

Necrotic Nick- Turbo Lover and Out in the Cold are great songs but, to me, they're stuck on a bad album. Painkiller is such a beast of an album. I feel like after the lackluster results of Ram it Down they really felt like they had something to prove. With thrash gaining a lot of popularity it only made sense to get heavier.

[@tjcaruthers5593]

@@thrallsofmetalNo doubt about Turbo Lover being stuck on a bad album. Judas Priest have always been hit and miss with me. Even though I absolutely love Painkiller my favorite song is the Green Manalishi cover. If you haven't ever heard the Fleetwood Mac version it is the absolute most boring song. It actually is surprisingly boring being that Peter Green was still in the band at that point.

[@lawrencefine5020]

Good lists, guys. I first discovered Priest in 1978 with Hellbent For Leather. Loved it. I gotta slightly disagree on Tim Ripper Owens, although Jugulator and demolition steaming piles of doo doo, I thought Owens was an awesome singer. I think he was in between a rock and a hard place when accepted the offer to fill some huge shoes. I think he did the best he could with what the other members of the band wanted from him. They wanted Halford and that's what I think Ripper gave them. There are a few JP albums I skipped in the 90's cuz I was mainly into Death Metal and had left behind the classic Metal until the early 2000's and came back into the JP fold. In short, Best JP album is Stained Class and the worst is Turbo. Lotsa ups and down with Judas Priest but mostly ups, thankfully. They do belong on the Mount Rushmore of Metal. Oh.. Their best sounding album? Unleashed In The East. Yeah I know, lotsa studio trickery abounds on that album, but that guitar tone on that record is the chef's kiss of guitar tones. So nasty and full of Metal goodness. I know, It's not a studio album. But gosh darnit, guys...THAT TONE. My god.. Ok I'm done.

[@thrallsofmetal]

Necrotic Nick- Thanks, man! Yeah, I'm not the biggest fan of Ripper. I think he has his moments but in the studio he over relies on effects and filters and I don't like his "yarl & wail" combo. I do agree that his was in a tough position with trying to win over fans and fill the shoes of a legend. That was always going to be an uphill battle. I totally agree with you that Stained Class is their best. The top 6 I had were all in a running for that #1 spot but Stained Class just has everything that I love about the band on it. I still don't own Unleashed in the East just because I don't really go for live albums. Granted, it's not really a live album technically but it's just a thing I have. I may pick that one up one day though since I know it gets a ton of love.
