I can say the same thing I was 10 years old when this album came out. and was always hanging out with my uncle and since I can remember I grew up With Rock n roll , reggae, metal and punk rock, my uncle passed away this sure bring back good memories...
@@whojahbless1560 Sounds like your uncle had great taste in music. I think this album was the true birth of Heavy Metal. From heavy blues of Sabbath and hard rock of Zeppelin to Mershall stacks , denim and leather, screaming vocals and Attitude all came together on this album in 1980!
I was reading an interview with Ozzy Osbourne the other day and he agrees, this is my first time listening and you know what? I think Ozzy is on to something this is banging.
I m from Portugal. I m a headbanger since 1980, i was 16 years old. Now i m 59, and i like Led Zeppelin, Judas Priest, ACDC, Whitesnake, Iron Maiden, Carcaças, Napalm, everything, FOR THOSE ABOUT TO ROCK I SALUTE YOU🎉😂
Everyone who is nostalgic for them in the 80’s please put “metal parking lot” into your search engine. It will take you back to Priest in the mid 80’s. It’s super cool to watch!
Your generation was killer 🤘 all metal headz I was born in 77 I didn't grow until 1987 1990 I look up to your generation awesome best music awesome cars awesome broads fuckin ay 🤘🍻you guys are the original metal Headz awesome 🇺🇸😎
1980 just punched me square in the face. Thank you for bringing me back to my room as a 15 year old dropping this on the turntable for the first time the day it came out. \m/
Music back then was something never to happen again. Vinyl certainly sounded better than anything. Blessed to be born in 1964. Right in time for the rise of ROCK !!! and the little bit of time disco was loved or hated. You were looked as a trator if you were caught listening to disco . Ah those were the greatest years ever !!
In 1980 my big brothers were listening to Nugent , Aerosmith, KISS , etc and i loved em all ,but I wanted my own sound. Went to a friend of a friends house in the big city , Tulsa , and heard this for the first time. HOLY SHT !!! Went to Starship recordc the next day and got the tape. Stayed in the player all summer long. I found my sound !!!
@@markr.devereux3385 how poetic. Music is subjective anyways, "one man's trash is another's treasure" as they say, so i can't hate what you like and not. But to say today's music isn't as good? That's just not correct.
"Better be the slaves To their wicked ways But meeting with our death Engulfed in molten breath" When you wear that ritualistic shame muzzle YOU'RE the slave to their wicked ways.

I remember Getting this LP in High school. I wasn't happy and heard before hand from a friend that Les Binks was no longer with the group. Then I heard Dave Holland's playing and drum sound. I was absolutely floored. Great drum sound and drumming. Great feel and groove to his playing. He was and is still my favorite Priest Drummer. RIP...Scott Travis does an insane job though. Cheers to him.
Wow that's awesome. I got 1996-99 music for hs so no complaints -- tiny music, super unknown etc -- but your description of the drummer situation perspective was enlightening. Never cared to listen to any but Dave drumming. I mean I do cuz it's priest I'm gonna listen to all of it but holmes is their drummer and Scott was his replacement and they both dominate equally but your story was very interesting about being bummed binks was done. I guess the moral of the story is ever me mber of priest is amazing ha
Comecei a gostar do Judas quando a imbecil da minha irmã de 10 anos começou a gostar do BTS, agora virou amor tbm, as músicas deles servem pra qualquer ocasião
@Victor Smit it is sad, true, but we had both stopped going to shows when he passed. But we sure could talk about them. 😍😍😍 I am glad we had our times.
I've got this album and many other Priest albums on cassette , if only I'd bought them on vinyl back in the day , maybe cassettes are more rare nowadays but they'll never match vinyl 🤘
Another song that is soooo awesome!!!! I got grow up to listening to it! Judas Priest with Rob Halford was and is great! This band was heavy!!!! Love Judas Priest!!!!!
I grew up in the late 90s and early 2000s with Priest, Megadeth, Iron Maiden, Riot, Fates Warning, Fastway, and many other classic metal bands being driven into my skull by my dad and older brothers. Now I'm a Progressive Death Metal fanatic, but I still love coming back to this shit every now and then to humble myself and take time to appreciate the golden age of metal music. May Priest never be forgotten.
I was in the fifth grade in 1975 and got to see Priest and Kiss together in Evansville, Indiana. It was an honor and memory that has lasted me a lifetime. Seen Priest 40 years later in 2015 and they still rule!
They put on the best show I ever seen in 1986 at Hara Arena in Dayton Ohio we drove 50 miles after school and drank a case of Little Kings on the way there
Exact same thing in Tulsa in 81 .... except in Oklahoma you could only get Little Kings at the liquor store unrefrigerated... needless to say couldn't wait for it get cold 😂 a case of warm beer in 45 minutes 😮
I used to love KISS when I was a preteen, but when I started high school, I began to grow out of them. When the NWBHM arrived in America, I became a huge fan of bands like Judas Priest and Iron Maiden, Motörhead. I also got into AC/DC and so.e of the classic British bands of the 60's and 70's such as Led Zeppelin, The Who Pink Floyd, and Black Sabbath.
Way to go Greg! Def Leppard IS the best band ever! They just have an awesomly unique sound that just cannot be duplicated or bested! I garandamntee that more people would attend a Def Leppard concert than a dated kiss concert.
Why does everyone cut down Dave Holland He's solid keeps great time and adds the syncopated drum fill in here and there and has a great snare and tom sound FU all
Hell yeah. Dave Holland is a CLASSIC hard rock/heavy metal drummer. Vinnie Appice did *this* kind of drumming for Dio for a long ass time to great results, and people didn't seem to complain. Most people now days think of Painkiller, and Scott Travis's flashy playing first I guess. The hi-hat work on this track rules. There's swagger to Holland's playing, for sure.
He's the only drummer I've seen that holds the sticks above his head if a song doesn't require drums right away...other drummers are drinking fluids and stretching during the short break in their gig. This guy is a beast! He did this on purpose basically calling other drummers pussys
he's not just solid, he's a fucking anchor. Dave Holland is one of the best and heaviest O.G. metal drummers in the world. he's unsung, but he's better than most. check out 'The Sinner' from the '88 tour. one of the baddest-ass metal drum performances ever. fuck the naysayers, Dave Holland fucking rules. th-cam.com/video/sa_-DFztHCs/w-d-xo.html
Fact: Most metal heads including myself don’t and didn’t gaf about the preference. We know what metal is and was when we heard it back in the early eighties! 😎🎸🤟🏻
Metal head of the 1980's and JP is my all time favorite. Next is Metallica followed by Maiden. Starting listening when I was 7 to JP. Never looked back!
Metal gods....lol l remember as 14 or15 year old at the time saying to myself this.song and heavy metal music is silly ridiculous!!!, now at 57 years old in 2022 thinking to myself same thing it is tinny bopper music!!!
It was my 11th. Grade year in high school and I went out and bought the "British Steel" album in the Fall of 1980 not long after it was first released. I swear, I must've worn this album out on my stereo turntable because I had played it so much.
We've taken too much for granted And all the time it had grown From techno seeds we first planted Evolved a mind of its own Marching in the streets Dragging iron feet Laser beaming hearts Ripping men apart From what I've seen of perfection Where we could do as we please In secrecy this infection Was spreading like a disease Hiding underground Knowing we'd be found Fearing for our lives Reaped by robot's scythes Metal gods Metal gods Metal gods Metal gods Machines are taking all over With mankind in their command In time they'd like to discover How they can make their demand Better be the slaves To their wicked ways But meeting with our death Engulfed in molten breath

Been doing so for 30+ years
I love to do everything listening to Priest. Just sitting here with Priest and my guitar. 🇬🇧🎼🎸
Better question would be who doesn't

Evolved a mind of its own

Dragging iron feet
Laser beaming hearts
Ripping men apart

Where we could do as we please
In secrecy this infection
Was spreading like a disease
Hiding underground
Knowing we'd be found
Fearing for our lives
Reaped by robot's scythes

Everyone who is nostalgic for them in the 80’s please put “metal parking lot” into your search engine. It will take you back to Priest in the mid 80’s. It’s super cool to watch!
I've been playing this since high school, I've never turned back😊

1980 just punched me square in the face. Thank you for bringing me back to my room as a 15 year old dropping this on the turntable for the first time the day it came out. \m/
Music back then was something never to happen again. Vinyl certainly sounded better than anything. Blessed to be born in 1964.

A simple brilliant song and none of these youngsters can equal it on their best day
OMG!!❤❤❤❤ so true!!!
So far it remains true. This might never come around again.
Okay grandpa. There is a lot of good modern bands, maybe you just haven't found them yet
In your mind . You can put a gold star on garbage but in the end it's still garbage.

why does no one i know love this song as much as me... that riff
Obviously they lack your excellent taste.
I do
Still love that sound of the knives and forks at the end being banged.
Some how I correctly guessed that's what it was when I first heard it😅
That's rock and roll baby!
Best way to start the 80's, magnificent album, thanks Priest for releasing this videos on this trying times!
British Steel and Back in Black: 1980 releases that becames two of the best albums released during the entire decade.
Lol I went through countless cassettes of this album in the early 80s,, cranked it laud thru the pioneer.

This was my soundtrack living out in Arizona. It went great with the desert scenery,hauling ass down hwy 85
You've just uploaded the song and here we are dude a lot people sharing the same feeling 🤘🏼 Best wishes from Mexico
Yes priest rules
My teenage years !! Could argue it was the best time to be a teenager in history!!
Metal masterpiece 😊
Agreed one of my favorites
300 Years later! Still in the minds of us real Americans
Haha, I'm one of those REAL Americans, lol...
Judas = amor eterno
Deuses do metal 🖤🤘
Comecei a gostar do Judas quando a imbecil da minha irmã de 10 anos começou a gostar do BTS, agora virou amor tbm, as músicas deles servem pra qualquer ocasião
bem que eles podiam fazer uma live pro pessoal q tá em quarentena, ia ser demais
We got to see them live, and it was the loudest show I've ever been to. They me be getting older, but man, they still rock!
Got to see them twice back in the eighties,sure miss the good old days rock out all you can life goes by wicked fast.
Yeah it does, my favorite person to see shows with died 13 years ago. Good times.
@Victor Smit it is sad, true, but we had both stopped going to shows when he passed. But we sure could talk about them. 😍😍😍 I am glad we had our times.
They are the metal gods!
The best metal song of all time!!
I've got this album and many other Priest albums on cassette , if only I'd bought them on vinyl back in the day , maybe cassettes are more rare nowadays but they'll never match vinyl 🤘
I spin "Screaming for Vengeance", "Defenders of the Faith", and "Ram It Down" about once a week each on my turntable still.
Plus the album artwork is outstanding on the JP lineup
Keep your cassettes. With all the remastering going on they are just like vinyl for original sound.
Sounds like you are trying to make a sell
I’ve recently acquired sad wings and stupidly passed a chance to get an old copy of British steel at my local record store.
Still holds up !!! 🤘🤘🤘
Oh yeah! One of the first metal band and of course one of the best
Um i dont think its one the first, id say more black sabbath or maybe Motorhead
@@nikoisagod9812 the best , and black sabath was considered the first, but its not pure metal like this,
HELL YEAH!
British Steel needs to be part of the Congress library.
Sounds great. What a band.
04:19 in Brazil and i listening to Metal Gods!
14:09 aqui, mano!
Wow this new band is unreal..
Lol dude your jokes are outdated
Meeeeetaaalll gooooooodddddssssss! (Dum... Doo dee doooooo)
La mejor banda de heavy metal de la historia.
Best piece of cutlery being shaken about I've ever heard!
Another song that is soooo awesome!!!!
I got grow up to listening to it!
Judas Priest with Rob Halford was and is great! This band was heavy!!!!
Love Judas Priest!!!!!
Love it when Priest plays live.

Love that snare drum n splash cymbals
They should make a livestream to the people on the quarantine
I'll really apreciate that!
That would be awesome if quarantine band live streams started becoming a trend, Clutch just did that yesterday and everyone loved it
Judas !!! Judas !!! Judas !!! Priest For Life !!! Salud y Vida Pa'lante !!! Cheers and Life On !!!
what a timeless gem!
I would have loved to be born in the 70s just to see them live..
I was in the fifth grade in 1975 and got to see Priest and Kiss together in Evansville, Indiana. It was an honor and memory that has lasted me a lifetime. Seen Priest 40 years later in 2015 and they still rule!
Ray Purdue I hope another band of this kind will exist while I’m still young
Twice! Both times at Veterans Memorial Colosseum in Phoenix Arizona. Good times!
They still play live. They had a tour planned for 2020 but that was canceled for obvious reasons.
me too man 🤘
Can't think of better metal band to call themselves METAL GODs than JUDAS FUCKIN' PRIEST!!!! 🤘🤘🤘
JUDAS PRIEST PARA MI SIMPLEMENTE: DIOSES DEL HEAVY METAL...
Metal gods now that's heavy metal!!!
Love the whole album 😊
Always!!!! Nothing but power cranking from the speakers and my nostrils
They put on the best show I ever seen in 1986 at Hara Arena in Dayton Ohio we drove 50 miles after school and drank a case of Little Kings on the way there
Exact same thing in Tulsa in 81 .... except in Oklahoma you could only get Little Kings at the liquor store unrefrigerated... needless to say couldn't wait for it get cold 😂 a case of warm beer in 45 minutes 😮

Leave KISS alone they’re the greatest band in KISStory
@@gregbors8364 Kiss' music is dated! Der Leppard is the best band!
I totally disagree on KISS sounding dated. Zeppelin definitely sounds dated!!
Way to go Greg! Def Leppard IS the best band ever! They just have an awesomly unique sound that just cannot be duplicated or bested! I garandamntee that more people would attend a Def Leppard concert than a dated kiss concert.
They are and will always be our true "Metal God's" Love you guys.

so underrated
Perfect album.
Metal head of the 1980's and JP is my all time favorite. Next is Metallica followed by Maiden. Starting listening when I was 7 to JP. Never looked back!
GREAT SONG OFF THIS GREAT ALBUM. LOVE THIS JAM. . LOVE ME SOME JUDAS PRIEST. 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Killer song, I just love the ending!! It is perfect on the road, but dangerous as hell!!!

Evolved a mind of its own

Dragging iron feet
Laser beaming hearts
Ripping men apart

In secrecy this infection
Was spreading like a disease
Hiding underground
Knowing we'd be found
Fearing for our lives
Reaped by robot's scythes

Machines are taking all over
With mankind in their command
In time they'd like to discover
How they can make their demand
Better be the slaves
