I'll be real, Jugulator is a solid 9-9.5/10. Demolition, is maybe a 7 at best. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE RIPPER AND HALFORD! Ripper is literally in my top 3 favorite Metal Vocalists of all time! Jugulator is such a HEAVY, BADASS, AMAZING METAL ALBUM!
It's sad to think that if any other band had put out a song like this they'd have become very well known, but because this was made under the Judas Priest name without fitting the Judas Priest mold, it got dismissed unfairly.
I've noticed this has happened with Rob Halford and Bruce Dickinson's solo albums, too. There's some great stuff there, but because they're back with their bands, it never gets the notice it should.
There was no problem or fault with this record whatsoever as far as quality heavy metal is concerned although the very harsh and darker direction of it probably didn't go down well with those looking for a more classic Priest sound. This album's only crime was the fact that it wasn't Rob singing on it.
Out of the two Tim Ripper Owens albums, Jugulator is my favorite. Demolition I haven’t listened to much of, but I know some people out there give it a lot of crap. I don’t know why.
Nicky T Listen to Death's cover of Painkiller. If I had to put someone on their tier, it'd be Chuck Schuldiner... and he wasn't even known for screams.
@@avadakedavra69 Death's version as well as Chucks's vocals are overrated. He's no longer with us but no way. The Death cover is terrible. Halford had soaring screams, cleans and power. Chuck didn't even come close to any of that and it sounded like he was about to pass out. Owens performed Painkiller better than Chuck.
@@pikkon899 Most of that is bullshit. I never said Schuldiner was better than Halford. I just said he's on that tier. And on top of that, I said Schuldiner was never known for his screams. He's got a HUGE range because of that. And who cares if Halford has cleaner screams? The whole point of those screams in that song were intended to have distortion, so Schuldiner's gritty falsettos were on point. All of that said, that may be your opinion, but I highly disagree.
It's really his band.He and KK formed it.But now it's really just down to Tipton and Halford now regarding decisions.Even getting the KK doppelganger that plays with them now and is pushed to the front in pictures because he is young is their decision.
The fact a song as amazing as this from such a perfect band is almost completely unknown to 99% of people is extremely saddening. Reissue of Jugulator is needed along with streaming release.
Not really a Judas Priest fan, just like metal in general. What exactly is the hate for this album? I admit it's nothing like the other albums (I love Painkiller), but I really liked the songs on this.
If Halford had sung on this epic masterpiece, Lord knows how much more it would be revered and esteemed as a majestic, epic heavy metal classic. As it stands, it still remains one of Priest's most grandiose and majestic compositions to date.
I've been a Priest fan for over 40 years and Jugulator and Demolition is one of the best albums they have ever put out. The fact that these two albums aren't included or accepted as part of the Priest catalog can only be explained with one word, Rob. He is just mad that Priest could do it without him and did a beautiful job I might add. Now I was not willing to accept Ripper in the beginning and I was done with Priest, but my best friend convinced me to check out Jugulator and I'm glad I did. I'm glad Robs back with Priest. I'm sad that K k is no long with them. It puts an end to the dynamic duo but I love KK's Priest and I'm definitely a fan of Rippers.
Nah, I think it's Tipton. He probably steered the ship during this era, but now has buyer's remorse. Halford's 90s stuff with Fight has a similar sound to Jugulator so he's not the one pretending these albums don't exist.
They have blown away the daylight hours we had Left a legacy, a deadly aftermath We cannot exist in godforsaken lands As we spiral down into oblivion Breathing the fumes of fires that they ignite Losing ground and we are all just losing sight We shall never see another setting sun Time to rise up and ascend, the end has come No more willpower Choked by hell fire Darkness above Blackening out the sun Gripped by steel claws Corrosion eating us So before we're all devoured Time to rise up and retire In cathedral spires Watching as the world expires From up amongst the clouds In cathedral spires No names No graves No prayers Can save us Ashes to dust Doomsday's upon us now It cannot be stopped Genocide all is lost Oh! We're so tired Time to rise up and conspire In cathedral spires Watching as our world expires From up above the clouds In cathedral spires Jaws of corruption Swallow us as one Consuming every nation Evoke resistance getting none Complete disintegration No good to defend There can be but one outcome We are no more - ascend Vaporized fury Offers no sanctuary Oh! We're so tired Time to rise up and retire In cathedral spires Watching as the world expires From up amongst the clouds In cathedral In cathedral spires Oh! We're so tired Watching the world expire Time that we retire Up in cathedral spires Oh! We're so tired Watching the world expire Time that we retire Up in cathedral spires Oh! We're so tired Watching the world expire Time that we retire Up in cathedral spires Oh! We're so tired Watching the world expire Time that we retire Up in cathedral spires Songwriters: Glenn Raymond Tipton / Kenneth Downing
I hope they eventually get the licensing issues with the Tim Owens stuff worked out. From what I've seen, even Rob Halford recognizes those albums as Judas Priest history, so it's a shame that the record companies have kept those albums hostage in the US.
This song is a perfect epic album closer that deserves a way more credit than it ever recieved. The Ripper era Priest was also a very talented lineup and both the Jugulator and Drmolition albums are timeless masterpieces. It is time that they both get released on Spotify as soon as possible because they both totaly rock.🤘🤘
Ripper did a great job with Priest. I Was glad when Rob came back but Rip never got the recognition or respect he deserves. If it wasn't for him we would lost Priest until Rob decided to come back
I hope KK’s Priest includes this one in their live set, that would be amazing, the finale in special is so dramatic that it would be the jewel of that set list.
This is one of my favorite Priest songs. I would love if Halford recorded a new version. As long as it's still in the same key, I think Rob could handle these high notes at least in the studio
Lsdmachine666 yes the vocals would be tighter.....but the rectum would extremely looser😅 Jokes ...Halford is one of the best vocalists in metal history👍🔥
To be honest ( I am a little biased as I actually prefer Rippers vocals to robs [Halford is better tho]) Ripper 'owns' this song and I don't actually think Halford could pull it off.
Tim is now in the band "KK's Priest" which also includes former JP drummer Les Binks (drummed on the albums Stained Class and Hell Bent For Leather) and of course founding JP member KK Downing. This seems like a great lineup that will cover the gamut that of songs that JP is not performing live and perhaps have not performed in many years.
I saw Ripper live on one of his solo tours. He played pretty much all of the Jugulator album, including this song. It was the only time I ever saw this song performed live.
This entire album proves that Judas Priest was much more than Rob Halford. Now don't get it twisted I love everything Rob does but I think people felt that Priest was done when Rob left. Priest not only proved that they could do it without Rob, they truly showed us all that they are the heavy "metal god's". Ripper did an amazing job considering the shoes he had to fill, no pressure right. They went beyond priest, and now that I think about it 'Beyond Priest' would have been an awesome name for K K and Rippers new band, which is awesome. 🤘
Those albums with Ripper were great. It's just another music. And Ripper is an excellent singer. By the way I also like ''classic' Priest. For example, Sad Wings Of Destiny is one of my favourites
Maybe they're great, but they're not Priest. They sound like most other metal that was popular at that time (and which I didn't like at all so for me these two albums are plain boring, except parts of this song).
I am so glad you guy's are all so passionate about Metal. We all have favourites but that can change. One thing for is that Halford is the master. His voice control especially when he runs into insane notes. This defines the difference for me. He also has an incredible ear for music. However Rob was very complimentary of Owen's. So for him Metal came first. Now for all of us. " Thank heavens for these guy's with these mind blowing pipes" that give us spine tingling chills. Love your comments guy's and passion.
Does anyone remember around 2004 reading that Rob Halford was going to include tracks from Jugulator / Demolition in comeback tour? shame this didn't seem to happen...
I don't remember reading quite that. But, I do remember him saying he was willing to sing any Judas Priest song. :) It'll never happen, but it would be cool to see Halford and Ripper sing this together at a Priest show.
I never gave the Jugulator stuff much of a chance before, but listening to this now I have to admit this is a kick-ass song, with everything in it that I've come to love about a Judas Priest song. Not sure how the rest of the album rounds out, but this track is awesome!

one of the most underrated metal songs of all time? i think so.
Yup
I would call it overrated. Too many people like it and I don't get it.
And finally you sang it... I´d really love if you made full a cover
here from ur last vid lol
Yup, had to come check it out after watching your vid.
Such an underrated banger, the Ripper Owens Priest era in general is underrated as hell
You got that right he filled the spot just like what happened with ac/dc
I'll be real, Jugulator is a solid 9-9.5/10. Demolition, is maybe a 7 at best. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE RIPPER AND HALFORD! Ripper is literally in my top 3 favorite Metal Vocalists of all time! Jugulator is such a HEAVY, BADASS, AMAZING METAL ALBUM!
This song is a masterpiece.
Incredible....ahhh love it
Yes and quite underrated!
the whole album is
A massively underrated masterpiece, 234 years ahead of its time, a tour de force unlike any other...
It has its moments but doesn't quite stick the landing
It's sad to think that if any other band had put out a song like this they'd have become very well known, but because this was made under the Judas Priest name without fitting the Judas Priest mold, it got dismissed unfairly.
Very true!
I've noticed this has happened with Rob Halford and Bruce Dickinson's solo albums, too. There's some great stuff there, but because they're back with their bands, it never gets the notice it should.
There was no problem or fault with this record whatsoever as far as quality heavy metal is concerned although the very harsh and darker direction of it probably didn't go down well with those looking for a more classic Priest sound. This album's only crime was the fact that it wasn't Rob singing on it.
This is easily one of the most epic songs that Judas Priest ever did. On any one of the albums on which Halford sang it would be considered a classic.
Yeah this comment is very true unfortunately
i so wish this album was on spotify
F
@spotify
such an under-rated album
Under-rated song. The album(s) during the Ripper's era were just badly written, and were instrumentally boring. just typical modern metal.
Nah, Jugulator is underrated through and through
Out of the two Tim Ripper Owens albums, Jugulator is my favorite. Demolition I haven’t listened to much of, but I know some people out there give it a lot of crap. I don’t know why.
Blood stains and Bullet train are another Two great metal songs. Headbangers metal no matter The time.
You can down Ripper all you want. But this is his legacy. Best intro he ever did. One of the best intros ever.
Did he personally compose this one? It would be a huge masterpiece then
@@davidknichal6629 You don't know that he DIDN'T compose it... So, there's that..
one of the best metal singers of all time, right up there with Halford.
Nicky T Listen to Death's cover of Painkiller. If I had to put someone on their tier, it'd be Chuck Schuldiner... and he wasn't even known for screams.
Darren Pinson ...I need to give that a listen ..thanks bud
Darren Pinson , seriouly !!! Chuck really fucked the song.
@@avadakedavra69 Death's version as well as Chucks's vocals are overrated. He's no longer with us but no way. The Death cover is terrible. Halford had soaring screams, cleans and power.

All of that said, that may be your opinion, but I highly disagree.
Ian Hill needs love too! The bass line at the end is freaking awesome and holds the ending together.
+Mike Hughes This imo is Ian's album to shine.
Hill is just one humble amazing bass guitarist
Mike Hughes. Ian Hil just awesome period
It's really his band.He and KK formed it.But now it's really just down to Tipton and Halford now regarding decisions.Even getting the KK doppelganger that plays with them now and is pushed to the front in pictures because he is young is their decision.
I couldn't be more agree!
In my opinion one of the best Judas Preist songs ever
An underrated masterpiece on an equally underappreciated album.
The fact a song as amazing as this from such a perfect band is almost completely unknown to 99% of people is extremely saddening. Reissue of Jugulator is needed along with streaming release.
One of my favorite closing tracks in their catalogue.
One Shot at Glory is another.
Amazing screams wow,that voice of tim owens
Ye he deserves way more recognition than he gets! One of the best metal singers out there
Ya homeboy from Ohio
The intro sounds like a combination of "Rooster" by Alice in Chains and "This Love" by Pantera. Two great hard rocking songs from the early 90's.
Andrew Toone Absolutely
Sounds like "Welcome Home" by Metallica
I don't hear any Metallica.
Yep. Thinking that, too.
@Bryan Darby I love this song but there is nothing that compares to the Floods outro man. It is pure gold
Vincent showed this song, and the memories of my mom playing this when I was yougner feel so nice.
( I was maybe 7 or so, 19 now)
I preffer Judas with Halford, but this one is masterpiece.
Yeah, Tim is not a bad singer too, I mean, onto this album, I thought it’s Halford!
the best song from the album.
@Chris Wimberly Abductors is good
Not really a Judas Priest fan, just like metal in general. What exactly is the hate for this album? I admit it's nothing like the other albums (I love Painkiller), but I really liked the songs on this.
True. And Bullet Train is the second. =)
@@atmosrex7126 A lot of people don't like change and Ripper's 2 albums were a massive change in direction.
Burn in Hell is another awesome song from this album.
If Halford had sung on this epic masterpiece, Lord knows how much more it would be revered and esteemed as a majestic, epic heavy metal classic. As it stands, it still remains one of Priest's most grandiose and majestic compositions to date.
The clean guitar intro to the song is so good
My favourite Judas Priest song. Also favourite album. I adore Halford, but Owens did an amazing job.
I've been a Priest fan for over 40 years and Jugulator and Demolition is one of the best albums they have ever put out. The fact that these two albums aren't included or accepted as part of the Priest catalog can only be explained with one word, Rob.

Epic song. Jugulator is a great album
This is the best song of the Ripper era and a personal, overall metal favorite of Mine in general. Dude did good. It's a great song.
same here
This song is fucking badass
Been a Priest fan since '82 ....56 now and still jam out to the heavy British Steel...love this CD
Painkiller and Jugulator where my favourite albums from JK.
JK? You meant JP bro
They have blown away the daylight hours we had
Left a legacy, a deadly aftermath
We cannot exist in godforsaken lands
As we spiral down into oblivion
Breathing the fumes of fires that they ignite
Losing ground and we are all just losing sight
We shall never see another setting sun
Time to rise up and ascend, the end has come
No more willpower
Choked by hell fire
Darkness above
Blackening out the sun
Gripped by steel claws
Corrosion eating us
So before we're all devoured
Time to rise up and retire
In cathedral spires
Watching as the world expires
From up amongst the clouds
In cathedral spires
No names
No graves
No prayers
Can save us
Ashes to dust
Doomsday's upon us now
It cannot be stopped
Genocide all is lost
Oh! We're so tired
Time to rise up and conspire
In cathedral spires
Watching as our world expires
From up above the clouds
In cathedral spires
Jaws of corruption
Swallow us as one
Consuming every nation
Evoke resistance getting none
Complete disintegration
No good to defend
There can be but one outcome
We are no more - ascend
Vaporized fury
Offers no sanctuary
Oh! We're so tired
Time to rise up and retire
In cathedral spires
Watching as the world expires
From up amongst the clouds
In cathedral
In cathedral spires
Oh! We're so tired
Watching the world expire
Time that we retire
Up in cathedral spires
Oh! We're so tired
Watching the world expire
Time that we retire
Up in cathedral spires
Oh! We're so tired
Watching the world expire
Time that we retire
Up in cathedral spires
Oh! We're so tired
Watching the world expire
Time that we retire
Up in cathedral spires
Songwriters: Glenn Raymond Tipton / Kenneth Downing
1:20 gives me thrills every time.this guy is a monster!
If anyone were to ask what Heavy Metal is, I would make them listen to this scream.
1:20 and 5:16
I’ve been a Priest fan since I was about 14 and this is a top 3 Judas Priest song ever in my book
The intro gives me chills
True. Chills like Black Sabbath's Eternal Idol track.
I hope they eventually get the licensing issues with the Tim Owens stuff worked out. From what I've seen, even Rob Halford recognizes those albums as Judas Priest history, so it's a shame that the record companies have kept those albums hostage in the US.

The first priest song I listen to of the year for 5 years in a row! Badass!
Tim Ripper Owens, will rip shit apart with his banshee screams of vengeance!
Perfect song. I actually very much like Ripper Owens' vocals. Of course Halford is the greatest, but still, this guy is freakin' awesome, too.
I've always loved this song. Its on my funeral soundtrack and ripper nailed halfords voice.
one of their best albums and tim fucking kills it
Let's take it 2 steps FURTHER: JUGULATOR IS DEFINITELY 1 OF THE MOST UNDERRATED METAL ALBUMS OF ALL TIME! IT ABSOLUTELY DESTROYS DEMOLITION!!!
I am dead. The whole song is incredible, but the intro just Masters me!
No matter how many times i hear this intro, it always guves me goosebumps
Love whole damn album is very underrated.True work of art!
Ripper did a great job with Priest. I Was glad when Rob came back but Rip never got the recognition or respect he deserves. If it wasn't for him we would lost Priest until Rob decided to come back
easily one the best judas priest songs
I love Rob but this song is my favorite, Tim Ripper kills it
This album is fucking badass, one of my favorite priest record! \m/
Wish Judas would release this album on streaming platforms
Always loved this album.
I hope KK’s Priest includes this one in their live set, that would be amazing, the finale in special is so dramatic that it would be the jewel of that set list.
I've been missing out on this amazing track for a long time. One of the best on the album easily.
This is one of my favorite Priest songs. I would love if Halford recorded a new version. As long as it's still in the same key, I think Rob could handle these high notes at least in the studio
Why should Halford record it? It is perfect as is.
I love Rob's voice, but this song belongs to Ripper.
I won't lie! I would love to hear that version!
Lsdmachine666 yes the vocals would be tighter.....but the rectum would extremely looser😅
Jokes ...Halford is one of the best vocalists in metal history👍🔥
To be honest ( I am a little biased as I actually prefer Rippers vocals to robs [Halford is better tho]) Ripper 'owns' this song and I don't actually think Halford could pull it off.

KK is a legend and Ripper probably has more of his voice left than Rob these days. Would love to see them live.
KK Downing is not a founding member of Judas Priest. John Perry, Al Atkins, Brian Staplehill and John Partridge formed Judas Priest in 1969.
@@petermcallister8489 sorry nerd 😜 but most people don't know that and there are no easy to find recordings of that line-up
@@dlwseattle aww bless.
Una de mis canciones preferidas de heavy metal de todos los tiempos.
Love Halford and can’t imagine Priest without him but Tim is such a great singer on his own
the best ( and maybe only) song in mr. owens' era...
Why is this not on Spotify?!
This entire album proves that Judas Priest was much more than Rob Halford. Now don't get it twisted I love everything Rob does but I think people felt that Priest was done when Rob left.

Ian Hill does some some really tasty and slick bass runs in this tune!
One of my favorite ripper songs.
Owens
all the way!!!!!, this album is one of my favourites!!
Que monstruo de canción a los años que la escucho, bien por Ripper
Rippers range is awesome! Puts me in mind of King Diamond
Those albums with Ripper were great. It's just another music. And Ripper is an excellent singer.
By the way I also like ''classic' Priest. For example, Sad Wings Of Destiny is one of my favourites
Maybe they're great, but they're not Priest. They sound like most other metal that was popular at that time (and which I didn't like at all so for me these two albums are plain boring, except parts of this song).
By far the greatest priest song ever!
Best song they did with Tim Owens by far.
I think had Rob been singing this, it would've been considered a classic
Roger that
It IS an absolute classic, Rob or not. A top 10 Priest track of all time for me.
This record is my first heavy metal album. That leads me listening heavy metal. This song is fucking awesome
I am so glad you guy's are all so passionate about Metal. We all have favourites but that can change. One thing for is that Halford is the master. His voice control especially when he runs into insane notes. This defines the difference for me. He also has an incredible ear for music. However Rob was very complimentary of Owen's. So for him Metal came first. Now for all of us. " Thank heavens for these guy's with these mind blowing pipes" that give us spine tingling chills. Love your comments guy's and passion.
One of the best intros I've ever listened. 1:20... chicken skin !
Among my favorite priest songs
They don't make music like this anymore.... long live priest 🤘
Let's hope that KK's Priest will make music like this, then
Ripper has such an amazing voice. Omg that intro!
Now with KK Priest we'll hear this song in events more, 🤟🎸⚡.
Does anyone remember around 2004 reading that Rob Halford was going to include tracks from Jugulator / Demolition in comeback tour? shame this didn't seem to happen...
I don't remember reading quite that. But, I do remember him saying he was willing to sing any Judas Priest song. :) It'll never happen, but it would be cool to see Halford and Ripper sing this together at a Priest show.
JP buried this album after Owens' departure...
I Do remember and I always wish for it, especially Burn In Hell
Gotta love this epic song. Screw those who think the vocals suck cause he isn't Rob. Thats dumb.
This album Rules!! It's in my top 3 favorite by Judas Priest
Wow wow wow. I love this song and his incredible voice. I’m shocked that it’s not that popular.
This is the most beautiful dystopia I ever heard; Rob is unreplacable, but Tim is badass!!!!
Ripper is one of the greatest singers ever!
The best priest song from the ripper era
Spotify pls
pls
The best song of the Ripper Owens Priest era.
The greatest song intro ever.
I never gave the Jugulator stuff much of a chance before, but listening to this now I have to admit this is a kick-ass song, with everything in it that I've come to love about a Judas Priest song. Not sure how the rest of the album rounds out, but this track is awesome!
One of my favorites
I wish Judas Priest would play this live in modern concerts. Halford would do excellent on it, and this is in my opinion a top ten Priest song.
I could listen to the part starting at 7:18 all day.
To all priest die-hards, this album kick ass. End.
So unappreciated song and album. In my opinion one of the best JP albums and Ripped just destroys with his voice
The intro is 1 of the greatest pieces of Music ever!
The most underrated song ever.
This right here at the beginning captured old school Priest so good! Could have been right off of Screaming for Vengeance or Defenders.
One of Judas Priest's classic songs, sad it get's overlooked because it's from the Ripper era.
The very best song priest did with Tim on the band ..nothing touched this..excellent powerful song..❤

Fantástico. Álbum injustiçado.
May be the most underrated masterpiece... but if it is on top of your list, then u have metallic ears at best !!
