This is one of the first albums produced by Roger Glover, the bassist of Deep Purple, and the beginning of a career for Mark Dodson who has produced like a hundred records. John Hinch plays on Rocka Rolla, Alan Moore plays on Sad Wings, Phillips on Sin, then Les Binks plays on Stained Class, Hell Bent for Leather and Unleashed in the East and then Dave Holland does everything from British Steel to Ram It Down until Scott Travis, their current drummer, debuted on Painkiller. And yeah, this was the first album where Priest started sounding like what they became. Cheers!
You should know Roger Glover. He is the bass player for most of Deep Purple from 1969-1973, then from 1984 until today. Nick Simper and Glenn Hughes had brief stints when Roger took a break from the band
My favorite Priest album it has everything - heavy , ballads (with acoustic guitar) rock , bluesy at times & some of Rob's best vocals ! I'm a little bias being the 2 nd album I bought ( in a bargain bin) when I was 13 yrs old & it literally changed my life turning me into a life long metal head !
One of the heaviest track of its time and stuff. One of the countless prototype Judas Priest made for extreme metal to come. One of my favorite tracks too. Sin after Sin is a very important record for Priest but for the genre. Bad ass record also very influential for my songwriting and drumming fondation and developpement
Up to Defenders, Priest were just phenomenal! It was spotty after that. Painkiller, was the high spot, post-Defenders. Otherwise, it was like they were trying to keep up with the trends, rather than being the trend-setters.
He reintroduced double bass to Judas Priest ( since the first drummer from the very first line up in 1969). Ian Paice did Fireball in 1971, but Bill Ward did by Master Of Reality (1971) onward, Trapeze ( featuring Dave Holland) had double bass, Mick Tucker from The Sweet did too, and Tommy Aldridge as Cozy Powell used double bass.
Dude, 70s Priest is phenomenal! It is such a gold mine of material. My favorite era of theirs by far! Sabbath invented metal, but Priest brought that speed and thrashiness to the sound like nobody before.. And funny enough, Rob Halford is great friends with the guys from Sabbath as well. He actually sang a whole concert with them when Ozzy was sick. The whole thing is on UA-cam, it is epic!
Simon Phillips! F*ck yes. Hell yeah. Some of the greatest drumming of all-time can be found on Priest's first few albums. If you're heading down this rabbit hole...there is no better bad-ass drummer than Les Binks. Utterly phenomenal. BTW, I use your "Drums and Coffee" mug daily at my work.
Priest blew me away in the 70s. Heavy Metal wasnt a thing yet, so anything this metal was totally underground at that time. I called my local radio station, requested green manslishi, they laughed and hung up.
Heavy metal was still a description, not a genre name, back then. Amazing! We tend to think that the term just automatically became a genre with Sabbath, but nope.
I would compare this with Sabbath's song Symptom of The Universe from their 1975 album Sabotage, because these are two great examples of Proto-Metal/Proto-Thrash. Both are way ahead of their time. Slayer's version, though I like it, isn't nearly as good. You need to discover Kenny Grohowski the drummer for Imperial Triumphant. Specifically, their song Chernobyl Blues. Imperial Triumphant are comprised of three musicians who have Jazz training and use that influence for Black Metal. Trust me: it's fucking wild! Great review!
They say Sabbath forged the Metal Sword and Priest sharpened it. Priest, the Metal Gods and Rob thee Metal God. Their first 5 Albums are a journey from Pre Metal Hard Blues\Rock to Metal.
Now that's Judas Priest's heyday! Simon Phillips and Les Binks were Judas Priest's best drummers. On this same great album, you can listen to the excellent "Let Us Prey/Call for the Priest’" and then move on to the next album, the brilliant Stained Class with Les Binks on drums, and the opening track "Exciter" is the perfect introduction to this masterpiece!😉
I never knew what the song is about, but the lyrics always fascinated me. If you take it literally, the protagonist is ...the city of Berlin and it has hooks in its brain and wants to Stab! Bawl! Punch! Crawl! or something. :D Songfacts: One of my favorite older Judas Priest songs is Dissident Aggressor. How did you come up with that title? Rob: It’s about the Berlin Wall in 1970 something or other. I couldn’t sleep, so I went out for a walk. I went to the Berlin Wall and I walked up on top of a boxy-looking post thing. Glenn: A watchtower-type thing. Rob: Watchtower thing. It was in November, it was freezing cold, and I was looking over from West Berlin, which is all brightly lit up - pubs were up and everything. And the East side was just dead. It was pitch black, no lights were on, and there were these Russian guys looking back at me in binoculars. That was the seed for what that song talks about, about “I know what I am in Berlin.” Interesting that either Songfacts misheard or misprinted, or Rob misspoke "I know what I am in Berlin" which is actually "I know what I am I'm Berlin". O_o
Simon was a session player at that time . He was brought into the project by Roger Glover ( who also brought in Simon's replacement Les Binks who stayed for the next 2 albums before being replaced by Dave Holland ) . As expected , the band were elated with Simon's performance but he already had a tour with Jack Bruce lined up as well as other projects .
Simon Phillips was either 19 or 20 when he did this album. Holy crap! Imagine hearing this for the first time in 1977, with nothing that sounded like it, as comparison. This album was WAY ahead of its time. My ONLY issue with this song, is its too short. I cant wait to see your reaction for this :)
The Stained Glass album is flawless in my opinion. I’m 60 and heard it for the first time about a year ago and about 1K times since. Les Binks was the drummer for that album.
I always think of Judas Priest as the real Spinal Tap because of the amount of drummers they had. 😂😂😂 Sad wings and Sin after Sin are my favourite Priest albums by a country mile.
Simon recoded the album but never toured with Priest, Les Binks joined the band and stayed for 2 albums. Simon was the ONLY drummer on the album, Les Binks and Dave Holland are just credited because "Sin After Sin" was rereleased with some bonus tracks, these tracks comes from different eras of the band (wtf??), "Jailbreaker" its a song from "Defenders of The Faith" wich was released in 1984. with Dave Holland on drums.
Great song from a fantastic album! This is basically setting the scene for heavy metal going forward, so yeah, I'd definitely say it's ahead of its time...
Roger Glover, Deep Purple's bassist (MKII).. was playing bass on your Ian Paice reactions.. welcome to the mighty Priest, another huge bunny hole to fall into. So influential to the metal bands of the 80's... Sabbath, Priest (plus a healthy pinch of Motorhead) = Thrash
But, you still have Stained Class, Killing Machine, Hell Bent For Leather, British Steel, Point Of Entry, Screaming For Vengeance, Defenders Of The Faith, Painkiller, for great Rob Halford performances.
I was maybe 11 when this album was released. I thought it was some alien band from outer space. It was such a new sound to me. I had the same reaction to space station no5 by Montrose. Having me and my mates older brothers into early heavy rock and metal was a huge bonus. It's still my favourite priest song and album. 👍✌️❤️
It's why when they were inducted into the Rick and roll hall of fame, they were credited with changing metal into what it became. Even the look of the bands. The black, leather, studs, and spikes. Definitely on the Mount Rushmore of metal.
try priest official painkiller. love the drum intro.just out of hospital and bills so can't afford a patreon. had ins but,,... don't get sick in yhe usa. love this..
Hey Andy, been a Judas Priest fan for 42 years and you need to check out "Beyond the realm of Death" from there Stained Class album. Les Binks was the drummer on this.
@@Nissardpertugiuyes, i know simon is on this track. Dave is credited playing on track 10 on this album, and andrew went in to dave's history w jp from '79-'89 about a month ago..freewheel burning. Rock On🤘🏻
Early JP were awesome, and way ahead of their time. Simon Phillips - was a studio drummer hired for this album, he declined the opportunity to join the band full time. Until they got Scott Travis on drums for the Painkiller album, the drums were never right, after this album.
There's a strong argument to be made that this one song influenced the direction of metal for the next decade or more. JPs early albums are interesting in that they were kind of all over the place stylistically... I think this album is where everything finally clicked and Simon Phillips deserves a lot of the credit for that.
Well they did do a whole album of covers, Undisputed Attitude, and they did Steppewolfs "born to be wild" along with this one, so I'd say they recorded more covers than most do. Lol
@@randywissler9923 Dude I totally zoned out on the covers album. Probably because I wasn't listening to a lot of Slayer during that time. I was focused on their studio albums. My bad. I feel like they were in a rut during the mid/late 90's
Ya, bro. Priest is an institution for a reason. It's not just people think they're cool. Its because they slay. And they been slayin since the beginning of slayin. They slayed supreme, until Slayerrrrrrr!!!!!! And, they still slayin, for now. God bless em.
I love all of the priest, from 70´s till today, but these songs was more fun to play on drums compared to the stuff after British steal, new type of drumming after this time.
A great band with an average drummer will sound average. An average band with a great drummer will sound amazing. At least, that’s my observation as a bass player.

Simon Phillips was just 19 years old when he played on this album. Such a great track!
Crazy 🤪

One of the best metal drumming ever !!
🙌
The great Simon Phillips!
The one and only!
Incredible drumming on this album…..the kid was great back then even!!

Old Judas Priest is the best.
Up to Defenders, Priest were just phenomenal! It was spotty after that. Painkiller, was the high spot, post-Defenders. Otherwise, it was like they were trying to keep up with the trends, rather than being the trend-setters.
My favourite Judas Priest album and one of my all time favourte metal albums. Simon Phillips was credited with introducing the double bass to metal.
Ian Paice was already playing double bass drum on Deep Purple's "Fireball" title track in 1971 !
He reintroduced double bass to Judas Priest ( since the first drummer from the very first line up in 1969).
Ian Paice did Fireball in 1971, but Bill Ward did by Master Of Reality (1971) onward, Trapeze ( featuring Dave Holland) had double bass, Mick Tucker from The Sweet did too, and Tommy Aldridge as Cozy Powell used double bass.
Your comments on the time perspective is spot-on. Spinning up this vinyl in the late 70's was life changing
For years i thought this was a Slayer song only to find it they covered it. Mind blown
BANGER

That is the best description Ive heard
If I could pick one track from the almighty Judas Priest catalogue, it would always be this track. One word, savage!!!!
@@jaimegomez8450 lol Savage is a great Priest track as well

Phenomenal track
One of my favorite driving (speeding) songs. 10/10
Lol I have that problem too. ;)

Jawbreaker
@67heavyduty Yes I know
Great song from a fantastic album! This is basically setting the scene for heavy metal going forward, so yeah, I'd definitely say it's ahead of its time...
Shout out to Mr Ian Hill. Holding down the JP bottom end for 54 years and counting. Legend.
Fantastic 🙌
Is that a banger or what ???
Ripper track! I always loved it since the first time I heard it.
Roger Glover, Deep Purple's bassist (MKII).. was playing bass on your Ian Paice reactions.. welcome to the mighty Priest, another huge bunny hole to fall into. So influential to the metal bands of the 80's... Sabbath, Priest (plus a healthy pinch of Motorhead) = Thrash
Fantastic and so different to their later commercial, more simple 80s stuff.
This whole album was ahead of its time! From driving songs like "Sinner" to laid back tunes like "Diamonds & Rust" it just kills all over!
Rob Halford at the peak of his voice !!!!
But, you still have Stained Class, Killing Machine, Hell Bent For Leather, British Steel, Point Of Entry, Screaming For Vengeance, Defenders Of The Faith, Painkiller, for great Rob Halford performances.
Simon legend. I've seen him live with different artists throughout his career. MONSTER 💩 Have a great day my friend
*6:05** Roger Glover was the bassist for **_Deep Purple!!!_*

👍✌️❤️
Adore this Springy! 🙌
One of the best rock-metal band🤘
You could compare them to the band RIOT from the United States, there debut album was 1977 check out the song Rock City
It's why when they were inducted into the Rick and roll hall of fame, they were credited with changing metal into what it became. Even the look of the bands. The black, leather, studs, and spikes. Definitely on the Mount Rushmore of metal.
try priest official painkiller. love the drum intro.just out of hospital and bills so can't afford a patreon. had ins but,,... don't get sick in yhe usa. love this..
Glad you enjoyed.
And hope you get better soon 🙏
Yes, Simon Phillips
Hey Andy, been a Judas Priest fan for 42 years and you need to check out "Beyond the realm of Death" from there Stained Class album. Les Binks was the drummer on this.
Dave Holland. I was always familiar with him as Priest's drummer thru the 80's. Best metal decade🤘🏻.
Simon Phillips in on that record.
Dave was still in Trapeze at the time
@@Nissardpertugiuyes, i know simon is on this track. Dave is credited playing on track 10 on this album, and andrew went in to dave's history w jp from '79-'89 about a month ago..freewheel burning.
Rock On🤘🏻
@mannybravo237 Track 10 is Jawbreaker from the long beach 1984
Awesome album
Early JP were awesome, and way ahead of their time. Simon Phillips - was a studio drummer hired for this album, he declined the opportunity to join the band full time. Until they got Scott Travis on drums for the Painkiller album, the drums were never right, after this album.
It makes sense that Slayer has covered this song!
Definitely check out the Slayer cover
There's a strong argument to be made that this one song influenced the direction of metal for the next decade or more. JPs early albums are interesting in that they were kind of all over the place stylistically... I think this album is where everything finally clicked and Simon Phillips deserves a lot of the credit for that.
you should listen to the first song on their first album
Greatest Judas Priest song ever! Only challenged by the awesome The Sentinel.
🤘
Slayer did a cover of this track years ago. Great song!
Can not wait to check it out
Dissident Aggressor the proto Thrash metal..
Slayer doesn't do many covers. They must have liked this song so much that they included it on their South of Heaven album. That says alot.
Well they did do a whole album of covers, Undisputed Attitude, and they did Steppewolfs "born to be wild" along with this one, so I'd say they recorded more covers than most do. Lol
@@randywissler9923 Dude I totally zoned out on the covers album. Probably because I wasn't listening to a lot of Slayer during that time. I was focused on their studio albums. My bad. I feel like they were in a rut during the mid/late 90's
@scottchrismon4492 it's all good brotha!! 🤘🤘
Ya, bro. Priest is an institution for a reason. It's not just people think they're cool. Its because they slay. And they been slayin since the beginning of slayin. They slayed supreme, until Slayerrrrrrr!!!!!! And, they still slayin, for now. God bless em.

hey my noob tnks from brazil , wake up best vocal ever weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
You need to react to Victim Of Changes off the previous album. That was the moment that changed metal forever.
Check out Slayer's cover. Dave Lombardo. Enough said.
Judas Priest - The sentinel. must be the next
Can't wait for more JP
Listen to a stained Class and the drumming from Les Binks is amazing.
Simon only played on the record. He never toured. The Drumeo video is awesome.
This song's atmosphere is somewhat similar to the early Scorpions, if my memory serves me well...
And the Gods have us heavy metal
If you like this, you’ll love the Slayer cover version !
Somebody tell him to listen to Pete Sandoval of morbid angel. He's the original.
Slayer does a great cover of this.
A great band with an average drummer will sound average. An average band with a great drummer will sound amazing. At least, that’s my observation as a bass player.
please try Slayer: south of heaven
Simon did not tour with priest just session
The Metal GOD was Black Sabbath singer...two times!
Drum cover, if you dare
THAT would be cool!
nono no this is a real desrespect , who is de vocalist? lol u never touch a drum rookie , if u dot know rob halllford u dont know nothing sorry
Heavy as shit🤘🏿🤘🏿🤘🏿
