hehe i'm also a 50 year old metalhead, didn't know about that education. but i agree, beyond the realms of death is amazing, one of the greatest solos of all time...
Priest and Sabbath both hail from Birmingham England. Imagine that! Same town produces the 2 most influential metal bands of ALL time! I like to put it this way---Sabbath made it Heavy, and the Priest made it Metal!
My condolences for Jared's loss. I can't imagine how hard it must be as parents to lose a child, but keep going strong, you two. He'd be proud of you both.
I started to take my daughter to some open air concerts when she was still a baby. Now she's 21 and still goes with me to metal festivals, making me proud.
The Sentinel might just be the epitome of classic heavy metal. Like the saying goes, Black Sabbath invented heavy and Priest invented metal. Just perfect and the live version slays. Rob Halford is really just phenomenal, when he narrates/sings in the middle he always gets me ("the knives fly like bullets!") Quite right about their beginnings, 1969 was the year they formed (as Freight) and changed their name to Judas Priest in 1970. First album out in 1974 (Rocka Rolla, the s/t song is quite nice) but it was 1976 with Sad Wings of Destiny that their stream of classics begin. Victim of Changes is the undisputed classic from that album but there is a whole treasure of albums and songs in the 70s era (Beyond the Realms of Death, Exciter, Hell Bent for Leather would make for lovely reactions), then British Steel marks the start of the 80s era (some would argue 1979's Hell Bent for Leather but anyway) where Breaking the Law comes from, as well as Living After Midnight (I'm mentioning the uber classics) and then after the not-so-hot-for-most Point of Entry came Screaming for Vengeance and Defenders of the Faith, the two total heavy metal (genre defining) albums (where Sentinel comes from - but I would love to see a reaction to Jawbreaker as well). In 1986 they released Turbo (the concert you just watched was from that tour), which is their 80s controversial release, they went too pop for most metalheads' taste but I think it's a quality album, very unique for what it is. Then came Ram it Down, suffers from the thin production and drum machine but GOD the solos on that album (the s/t song is otherworldy and a precursor to Painkiller). 1990 came what many consider their best (there is no definitive best Priest album, some would pick a 70s album (Sad Wings... and Stained Class seem to be the favorites) , others one of the two 80s I mentioned and a whole lot of people, esp. the younger generation (meaning up to people now in their early 40s!) just worship Painkiller, which is a flawless, ass-kicking heavy metal album from start to finish, informed by the speed/thrash of the late 80s (Painkiller, Nightcrawler, Touch of Evil, anything really!). And filled to the brim with HOT soloing. I should note that it is incredibly rare to see guitarists into the third decade of their career suddenly stepping up their game musically/technically, esp. Glenn Tipton became a bona-fide shredder in his 40s! They toured with Pantera and Annihilator that year and apparently Rob Halford was quite influenced by Pantera. He left Priest, formed Fight and released War of Words in 1993. That's a GREAT album bby the way (Into the Pit, Laid to Rest, excellent choices) but the follow-up wasn't as good. At this point, metal was very much considered dead by the industry and many musicians distanced themselves from the scene. Rob Halford did that too. He released his industrial-electronic collab with Trent Reznor (Nine Inch Nails - do Hurt!) and kind of denounced metal but he regretted that, made a comeback in 2000 with Resurrection (again, fantastic album, Silent Screams is just PHENOMENAL) and then rejoined Priest in 2002. Judas Priest had replaced Halford with a young American called Tim "Ripper" Owens (incredible talent, amazing pipes) and in 1997 put out Jugulator, which saw Priest being very much influenced by bands like Fear Factory or Pantera. I find the album awesome (except for the solos) but the follow-up (Demolition) was rather poor and the band did not seem to go anywhere. There are many Priest fanatics who don't even acknowledge the albums. Very similar to the Iron Maiden situation in the 90s (the Blaze albums and the Dickinson reunion. Hellrider comes from the comeback album with Rob Halford (Angel of Retribution). Since then, they have released three more, with Angel fo Retribution and the last one Firepower being the standouts. Anyway, Judas Priest is one of the titans of the genre, they were there from the beginning, they have released many classic albums and tons of classic songs, Rob Halford has influenced pretty much EVERYONE (and not just vocally, the leather and spikes thing can be attributed to him), the guitar duo of KK Downing and Glenn Tipton is legendary and in short (sorry for the long-ass message) they truly are metal gods. HUGE diversity in the songwriting, really, they have covered a LOT of ground... PS: Really enjoy your reactions :) PPS: Zed Yago - The Fear of Death (for me and my wife! :) )
Sabbath , Budgie ( formed before Any of them) , Deep Purple , Trapeze created metal in thoses early diverse patterns . Doom , Funk metal , groove, heavy , speed / thrash , neo classical , progressive ( while Uriah heep would be mentionned too ) But in the 1967-1970, Budgie , and especially Trapeze and Judas priest that are in essence a lot more closer ( and much more influence on Priest than sabb ever ) to each other than most people may think and quite hidden brother . Thoses bands are a particular trinity , born in the same era of others , but they did something more modern and Edgy than sabb . Influencing more extreme stuff to come .
You said it, big guy...1981, a fresh-faced sophomore hears 'Bloodstone' for the first time... Nothing would ever be the same for this metalhead. 80s metal forever.
This Priest concert was my first ever CD when I was a kid. I know this concert front to back and backwards. Every drum beat....every guitar riff. Welcome to my universe. I envy you guys. I’ve heard it all. And it sucks that the classics will never be matched again.
The best of Priest is from the 'Unleashed In The East' live album. 'Victim of Changes', most notably. Also, the official video for 'Touch Of Evil' is great. A slow, intense song.
@@Walamonga1313 I also think the original Victim of Changes is better than on Unleashed in the East, however The Green Manalishi I find to be amazing. Halford's high notes at the end is just incredible. Victim of Changes on Battle Cry has a great into, but the scream at the end kills it for me, as I find it simple a scream, nothing more.
Shout out, very cool thanks guys! Just wanted to comment about the 2x reactions. Two songs in a single video is a great idea. You’ll be able to get to everyone’s requests faster. Good idea 👍🏼
Hugh G. Rection OK, let me try to understand this...........you’re listening to music as opposed to___________with your wife? Rich, I like you and Kell a lot, however, I’m beginning to question your PRIORITIES!!!
Rest In Peace Jared (I hope I spelled it right). I'm an ex-nurse and looked after a few people with epilepsy. I'm so sorry for your loss. I was also a psychiatric nurse in a max-sec prison and helped people with what I called "metal therapy". Contrary to what most people think, metal is inspirational and heart-warming as opposed to aggressive noise. The time I spent in the prison, violence went down by quite a large amount. Metal rules
Mikey B thank you so much for your heartfelt message and sentiment. Metal therapy.... I like it. As always, thank you for being here with us sharing and spreading the love.
Sorry to hear about the loss of your son Rich. I'm a epileptic. I had grand mal seizures when I was young. Luckily they aren't as bad now ,i still have seizures at 52. Its scary at times. It sucks beyond belief sometimes.😞
So glad to hear that you have moved a bit past that horrific time. The last one that took Jared out must have been a whopper. Just crushing. But we forge on with him over our shoulder every day and he's in our world through the music we hear and the people we share it with. Big Love from us Ron. Thank you.
Man! You just broke my heart! I'm so sorry about your son. Please hang in there.......someday when you think of him it will be with a smile, instead of a broken heart. I don't know how you do it, but keep on keeping on. I think you guy's are a great team. God Bless!
Oh hell yeah! Have not heard the Sentinel in a few years. Time to bust out Defenders of the Faith and gorge myself on it for a few days. Great reaction! More Priest good!
Ironically I literally falling in love all over again with my teen selfs favorite band Priest the last few days. Check out Judas Is Rising. I forgot how great that song is. During the intro they slowly fade in Halford in a mid scream. There truly is nobody like him.
BLESS ya man .. sorry ya son and loss .. I born 61 .. and falling into our English rock late seventies .. 80s .. yeah seen and love this music now ya hearing .. continue as you've a long journey … .. BEST
@@Kel.N.RichReactions: How about. "No Surrender" and "Sea Of Red" from the album Firepower. I hope you guys enjoy "Sea Of Red" as much as me and my wife do. The lyrics are absolutely amazing. I dedicated this song to my amazing wife on our 20th wedding anniversary. Exactly three months after the album was released. No need to say that she absolutely loved it. The best to both of you. And God Bless,
Sorry for your loss you guys !! if you really want to listen to his vocal range listen to the song "run of the mill " full blast little slower in parts but the way it builds up, and then the ending is absolutely fucking unbelievable!!! read the lyrics before then listen !!!!!
I'm so sorry to hear about Jared. But that is the flying v guitar that KK downing is known for. It is what started the guitar's prominence. So therefore I feel that he, understood that and new some Judas Priest. Beyond the realms of death
Rob Halford is the Freddy Mercury of heavy metal. He is the consummate showman. Priest has appealed to the metal nerd since the 70's. Their characters like the Sentinel are npc's brought to life for us rpg nerds since before dnd in 77. Priest gave us something to latch on to in an Era where being an outsider was a near death sentence
The Sentinel was from 1986 priest live Video, released commercially in 1987.as an companion video to their live album... Priest Live. Recorded in Dallas Texas on their fuel for life tour. Promoting their then new Album TURBO. Originally the Sentinel is from their studio Album, Defenders of the Faith from 1984.
@Dark Waters Yeah, in another video I mentioned these from Helloween: Helloween- Halloween Helloween -Keeper Of The Seven Keys Helloween - Victim Of Fate Helloween -Twilight Of The Gods Helloween -March Of Time Helloween -How Many Tears (which was initially written as a power ballad by the name Sea Of Fears (laso awesome song) by the co-founder guitarist of the band when he was in his previous, total obscure band called SAS Helloween -We Got The Right Helloween -Ride The Sky Helloween -Phantoms Of Death Helloween -Eagle Fly Free Helloween -Starlight Helloween -Heavy Metal Is The Law Helloween -Metal Invaders Helloween -Dr. Stein Helloween -I Want Out
Hi guys this video is from the fuel for life tour la reunion arena Dallas Texas 1986 which was sold as a live video of the whole concert called Priest Live . Being a lifetime fan of Jp it was very special for me as I was long haul trucker who just by chance got the opportunity to contract for a production company in Hollywood and my first assignment was the fuel for life tour best 7months of my life for sure long hours hard work but I cry when I watch this video thanks for the memories metal will never die . Rich very sorry for your loss bro. Peace
Judas Priest is amazing! Other songs you might enjoy are: Rock hard ride free A touch of evil Beyond the realms of death The green manalishi Blood red skies Fire burns below
If you liked "The Sentinel" live version, you need to watch the rest rest of this concert 'Fuel for Life".This was the best live performance Priest ever did, maybe because they were in their prime! Turbo Lover sounded just like it did on the studio album as did Love Bites. I saw this concert and was blown away! You guys really,really need to do a live reaction to the two song I mentioned and trust me when a live video (Turbo Lover) gets 1.2 million veiws I would say it is well liked! Add yourself to the list...
I am so sorry for your loss. I cant imagine how painful that must be. He is proud of what your doing. Priest are the Gods of Metal. Great reaction. Keep it up!
Hay just wanted to say i love you both it is like jamming with old friends. My self being in my late 40's i don't fill alone any more lol. I was wanting to suggest corrosion of conformity, Albatross.
Hi guys yes Rich you are partly right there was a "first version" of Judas Priest that came out around 1969 before Rob Halford joined....the singer's name was Al Atkins....Rob Halford didn't join Priest until early1973 I think and the only original member is the blond guitarist K.K.Downing
ONE OF THEIR FINEST!!!! Can't do a whole lot wrong with Priest....been my top-shelf band since '81-'82 and will NEVER be ousted!!! Kel...your reactions are PRICELESS!!!
You nailed it Rich...Priest's inception (involving members we're familiar with) was 1969 when KK Downing and Ian Hill teamed up and got the ball rolling. The name 'Judas Priest' was already in use by 4 other members just before then, and when their vocalist teamed up with KK and Ian and then drummer Chris Campbell, the newest re-incarnation was born....Halford joined by '73, and Glenn Tipton came along shortly after.
54 now, and still a metal head. I bought my first Priest album starting with 1978’s Stained Class. Their break out album began with 1980’s British Steel. It put them over the top. I pretty much bought everything Priest after that. These days I also listen to all types of metal.
Saw Judas Priest with Uriah Heep live last year in Dortmund (Germany) and both bands are still kicking major butt! If you want to dig deeper in the roots of Heavy Metal, I'd suggest you listen to Atomic Rooster's Death "Walks Behind You" - or even older songs if you're in the mood, because the need to externalize powerful negative emotions in a creative and liberating way, goes really way back in time! Oh and that remark? "Agressive Nerds"? Spot on!
#painintheask More Priest!!!! Beyond the Realms of Death, Victim of Changes, The Green Manalishi and Painkiller. So many others I could list. But thats a start
Loved the reaction! Loved the point that you mentioned the harmonies, melodies, and progressions that they other reactions do not notice. Since you loved the live performance, you must do Victim of Changes from the US Festival- a must watch of an early priest song. Every album is different, so enjoy the journey.
I am sorry for your loss, I lost my daughter to a car accident at 17. We shared the same musical taste and I enjoyed discussing how my older metal bands compared with the newer bands she listened to. It's been 5 years, and not one minute goes by that I dont think of her.
You guys are awesome!!! Glad I subscribed a few weeks ago! Priest, Maiden and Queensryche are still what I love to jam out to as a 50 year old dude. Classic rock from the 70s is still my favorite genre of music but I rock out to Heavy metal about 25% of the time. Your son sounds like he was amazingly awesome, so sorry for you loss. I have 3 sons and a daughter and two of my boys play guitar. What joy music can bring to families. Much Love!
Some of the old 70's stuff is so different from what you just heard but still amazing. Much more light and shade and Robs voice as even more amazing back then.
You guys are AMAZING! I have just recently discovered your channel and I find you guys so refreshing in your reactions to discovering bands that I grew up with and seeing your reaction and appreciation for them. I express my sincere condolences for your loss. I'm sure he smiles on you both discovering this music. You have a fan for life! God Bless You Both.
\M/ Like, I'm black, like Seal 1991 Crazy era black, the Halford chills hit me hard and I KNOW I got goosebumps somewhere, just need to look in the right light \M/
As someone who grew up with epilepsy as well as a love of Judas Priest it was touching to hear you talk about your son and why JP means so much to the channel. My first grand mal seizure happened on 7/7/77. I was four years old. Thankfully, I outgrew it when I was about 12. I am so sorry about your son, Rich. While I can't relate to your pain I do relate to what it is like to struggle with epilepsy. As for JPs place in metal it seems to me that while Sabbath and Zeppelin have elements of folk and psychedelia to them Priest was the band that made metal it's own form. They were influenced by those bands obviously as well as Deep Purple and others but metal didn't come into its own until Judas Priest. Godspeed. I enjoyed the video.
have you heard of or reacted to 220 Volt from Sweden? The had albums 220 Volt,Power Games,Mind over Muscle,Electric Messengers(compilation album for USA),Young and Wild,Eye to Eye,Lethal Illusion,Volume I(5 studio tracks and the rest live songs),Walking in Starlight came out in 2014 I love every song on every album. ]:P
I did have someone to listen to music with for 20 years. We both liked metal and other kinds of music but our relationship ended 10 years ago. But I still love this music and your channel. Keep up the good work.

Great pair of songs.
Definitely a great pair :-D
I see what you did here :)
Nice 😊
Hahahaha
yes , very bountifal
The hole Painkiller album is one masterpiece after another, and It's the metalest metal album of all times.
Victim of changes and Beyond the realms of death are 2 songs you have to listen to if you want to get the full Priest experience
They must be live though. The studio versions are great, but live they blow my mind.
Off of #"unleashed in the East" is the versions you wanna hear "Victim of Changes" and "Beyond the realms of death"
dreamer deceiver
Priest fan since 83. 50 year old man. Please , as an educated metalhead, i ask (for your sake) to play BEYOND THE REALMS OF DEATH!
hehe i'm also a 50 year old metalhead, didn't know about that education. but i agree, beyond the realms of death is amazing, one of the greatest solos of all time...
Heartily seconded!
50 years old too, and yes, Beyond the realms of death is the fucking best song👍
52 yo anything before 1978
The Sentinel is the best Judas Priest song! It’s just awesome! My favorite Priest karaoke song to sing (together with Jawbreaker and The Ripper).
Priest and Sabbath both hail from Birmingham England. Imagine that! Same town produces the 2 most influential metal bands of ALL time! I like to put it this way---Sabbath made it Heavy, and the Priest made it Metal!
Judas Priest has been melting our faces since the late 60's
and I'm so happy to be part of the journey, with love from the Central Valley California
I'm so sorry for your loss. Your son definitely had a great taste in music.
I so appreciate your thoughtful comment. He is a live and well and looking over all of it shoulders. Thanks for stopping by.
My condolences for Jared's loss. I can't imagine how hard it must be as parents to lose a child, but keep going strong, you two. He'd be proud of you both.
I started to take my daughter to some open air concerts when she was still a baby. Now she's 21 and still goes with me to metal festivals, making me proud.
TBH what makes bands like Judas Priest so great is their ability to change with the times 70s 80s 90s and 2000s , just pure awesome 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Sabbath invented heavy metal. Priest kept it going through the mid-late 70s until Maiden made their impact.
Too bad Vasilis isn’t more willing to express his feelings!!!
Al created Judas Priest...
Al created Judas Priest...

You said it, big guy...1981, a fresh-faced sophomore hears 'Bloodstone' for the first time...
Nothing would ever be the same for this metalhead. 80s metal forever.
The Sentinel...by far one of my most favored PRIEST songs. So raw!!! Judas Priest = Masters of the Metal Realm
#Judas Priest Night Crawler. Try it on!
Priests Nostradamus album is a total work of art. It as absolutely everything.
You should really give it a listen.
Future of Mankind is a great one to start off on from that album
So very sorry about your Son.
‘Alone’ is a freakin masterpiece and ‘conquest’ too.
Let us Prey by Judas Priest has everything. Vocals, riff, solo...!!!
This Priest concert was my first ever CD when I was a kid. I know this concert front to back and backwards. Every drum beat....every guitar riff. Welcome to my universe. I envy you guys. I’ve heard it all. And it sucks that the classics will never be matched again.
Judas Priest - Victim of Changes (live from Unleashed in the East)
and Judas Priest - Blood Red Skies (studio version)
Victim of changes live from the unleashed in the East album is absolutely incredible! I promise you will be blown away!
Nice!! 2 great choices. I'll add one more, particularly for Halford's vocal range: Riding on the Wind
I love Riding On The Wind. Screaming for Vengeance is a great album.
Priest, Maiden, Dio and Ozzy are the real deal.
The best of Priest is from the 'Unleashed In The East' live album. 'Victim of Changes', most notably.
Also, the official video for 'Touch Of Evil' is great. A slow, intense song.
Rob Halford mentioned in a couple interviews that Victim of Changes is his favorite Priest song.
I agree 200 % with One eye
Wrong, the video blows. It cuts out a chunk of the song including the instrumental interlude and like half of the solo.
EDIT: corrected spelling
@@Walamonga1313 I also think the original Victim of Changes is better than on Unleashed in the East, however The Green Manalishi I find to be amazing.

You send me back in time guys.. more than 30 years when i was 17-18 listening to Priest and headbanging like crazy... tyvm!
The "Sentinel" video is from Dallas, Texas on the 1986 fuel for life tour. I have seen Priest live over a dozen times from 1980 til now always great.
Great news to see you getting around to the Metal Gods themselves. You two should most definitely react to "Turbo Lover" - seems to fit lol
Rather divisive album since that's where they started introducing more synths, but I agree. I think they'll enjoy it.

Yes Judas is Rising watch the live version it’s incredible for sure
The vocals live on this performance are totally insane. Only Rob could hot notes like that live.
Just saw these guys for the second tome on Saturday gone. They put on a great show and Robs voice is still great.
Yeah. Halford has recover his voice from a bad period between 2005 and 2012.
BLESS ya man .. sorry ya son and loss .. I born 61 .. and falling into our English rock late seventies .. 80s .. yeah seen and love this music now ya hearing .. continue as you've a long journey … .. BEST
Hellrider is definitely one of if not the most metal songs ever.
Judas Priest has a new album Firepower out.
@@nickkraitor6560 I love the whole album
Halford in fine form on that record.
I love both of these songs. Two different eras of Priest, but the metal thread between them is undeniable. I have seen Priest live. Never disappoints!
Awesome...... Reminds me of me and my wife listening to music together. Been doing this with her for over 20 years now.

Sorry for your loss you guys !! if you really want to listen to his vocal range listen to the song "run of the mill " full blast little slower in parts but the way it builds up, and then the ending is absolutely fucking unbelievable!!! read the lyrics before then listen !!!!!
Early priest had the best vocals of any band 👍 Badassery 101
My condolences ❤️
I'm so sorry to hear about Jared. But that is the flying v guitar that KK downing is known for. It is what started the guitar's prominence. So therefore I feel that he, understood that and new some Judas Priest. Beyond the realms of death
Early Priest- Dreamer/Deceiver
Sorry to hear about your son. Love your reactions.
Rob Halford is the Freddy Mercury of heavy metal. He is the consummate showman.
Priest has appealed to the metal nerd since the 70's. Their characters like the Sentinel are npc's brought to life for us rpg nerds since before dnd in 77. Priest gave us something to latch on to in an Era where being an outsider was a near death sentence
The Sentinel was from 1986 priest live Video, released commercially in 1987.as an companion video to their live album... Priest Live. Recorded in Dallas Texas on their fuel for life tour. Promoting their then new Album TURBO. Originally the Sentinel is from their studio Album, Defenders of the Faith from 1984.
Love your reaction! My condolences for what happened to Jared. Keep it up guys:)
Great Reactions, thanks for fulfilling the request.
Can never go wrong with the Priest...All hail the Metal Gods 🤟
🤘 not 🤟
🤟 means "I love you" in sign language.
Gil Millán thanks for the correction - though I guess both versions are fitting 😊🤘🤟

Hi guys this video is from the fuel for life tour la reunion arena Dallas Texas 1986 which was sold as a live video of the whole concert called Priest Live . Being a lifetime fan of Jp it was very special for me as I was long haul trucker who just by chance got the opportunity to contract for a production company in Hollywood and my first assignment was the fuel for life tour best 7months of my life for sure long hours hard work but I cry when I watch this video thanks for the memories metal will never die . Rich very sorry for your loss bro. Peace
Hellrider is one of the best songs ever!

You guys are great. So happy for your ongoing success.
Also watching this reaction in 2023 and they are STILL going. And the performance was from 1983.
J.P. IS METAL!
Man, I remember that tour. So so SO incredible. Defenders of the Faith is still my all-time favorite Priest album.
MASTERS OF METAL
Я хочу, чтобы каждому человеку, на планете земля, было так же ХОРОШО, как этим двоим !!!
👍👍
✌️
If you liked "The Sentinel" live version, you need to watch the rest rest of this concert 'Fuel for Life".This was the best live performance Priest ever did, maybe because they were in their prime! Turbo Lover sounded just like it did on the studio album as did Love Bites. I saw this concert and was blown away! You guys really,really need to do a live reaction to the two song I mentioned and trust me when a live video (Turbo Lover) gets 1.2 million veiws I would say it is well liked! Add yourself to the list...
Judas Priest - Love Bites (Live from the 'Fuel for Life' Tour)
I strongly second this recommendation! One of my favorite live videos! Also one for Kelly's "That List" is Burning Up off Stained Glasses.
I am so sorry for your loss. I cant imagine how painful that must be. He is proud of what your doing. Priest are the Gods of Metal. Great reaction. Keep it up!
Priest did NOT "start it all"...that honor is reserved for Black Sabbath!!
Priest made metal what it is. Sabbath is more like very heavy rock/progressive
Priest is the first real metal band. First album was whatever. After that it's just pure metal for decades.
Priest took metal out of the sabbath blues to what metal is known for now...So you are kinda correct, but not completely...
Hay just wanted to say i love you both it is like jamming with old friends. My self being in my late 40's i don't fill alone any more lol.
I was wanting to suggest corrosion of conformity, Albatross.
So sorry to hear about your son, Rich. Much love to you and to his memory. So glad to hear he was a musician and enjoyed metal. So very cool.
2 great things to come out of 1969, Judas Priest, and me. Lol
🤣🤣🤣
Kel. You are a goddess. Thank you both!!!
Judas Priest !!!! The Metal Gods !!! Respect ! The first side of Defenders Of The Faith on vinyl is a masterpiece of Heavy Metal !
Hi guys yes Rich you are partly right there was a "first version" of Judas Priest that came out around 1969 before Rob Halford joined....the singer's name was Al Atkins....Rob Halford didn't join Priest until early1973 I think and the only original member is the blond guitarist K.K.Downing
And there debt album was Rock-a-Rolla in 1974.
Great stuff guys, and so sorry for your loss - the Metal family is here for you 🤘
Collective Soul is an awesome band from the 90's to present.
IT ANOTHER PONY :O
PONYCEPTION
HI
@@The_Pony yes Hello there ]:) ]:P
There is a film running in my head when I hear this...great storytelling. Awesome vocals.
ONE OF THEIR FINEST!!!! Can't do a whole lot wrong with Priest....been my top-shelf band since '81-'82 and will NEVER be ousted!!! Kel...your reactions are PRICELESS!!!
You nailed it Rich...Priest's inception (involving members we're familiar with) was 1969 when KK Downing and Ian Hill teamed up and got the ball rolling. The name 'Judas Priest' was already in use by 4 other members just before then, and when their vocalist teamed up with KK and Ian and then drummer Chris Campbell, the newest re-incarnation was born....Halford joined by '73, and Glenn Tipton came along shortly after.
54 now, and still a metal head. I bought my first Priest album starting with 1978’s Stained Class. Their break out album began with 1980’s British Steel. It put them over the top. I pretty much bought everything Priest after that. These days I also listen to all types of metal.
Priest was my First Metal concert in 1978 right after the album Staind Class...Hooked me Forever!!!
Saw Judas Priest with Uriah Heep live last year in Dortmund (Germany) and both bands are still kicking major butt!
If you want to dig deeper in the roots of Heavy Metal, I'd suggest you listen to Atomic Rooster's Death "Walks Behind You" - or even older songs if you're in the mood, because the need to externalize powerful negative emotions in a creative and liberating way, goes really way back in time!
Oh and that remark? "Agressive Nerds"? Spot on!
#painintheask More Priest!!!! Beyond the Realms of Death, Victim of Changes, The Green Manalishi and Painkiller. So many others I could list. But thats a start
Loved the reaction! Loved the point that you mentioned the harmonies, melodies, and progressions that they other reactions do not notice. Since you loved the live performance, you must do Victim of Changes from the US Festival- a must watch of an early priest song. Every album is different, so enjoy the journey.
Great reaction keep the videos coming!
I am sorry for your loss, I lost my daughter to a car accident at 17. We shared the same musical taste and I enjoyed discussing how my older metal bands compared with the newer bands she listened to. It's been 5 years, and not one minute goes by that I dont think of her.
The Sentinel!!! 🤘 yes!
You guys are awesome!!! Glad I subscribed a few weeks ago! Priest, Maiden and Queensryche are still what I love to jam out to as a 50 year old dude. Classic rock from the 70s is still my favorite genre of music but I rock out to Heavy metal about 25% of the time. Your son sounds like he was amazingly awesome, so sorry for you loss. I have 3 sons and a daughter and two of my boys play guitar. What joy music can bring to families. Much Love!
Once you listen the mighty priest you are hooked Judas Priest style heavy metal
Check out Halford with his band Fight from the early 90s - Little Crazy!!
Steve J the band Halford was much better than Fight. The song Made In Hell is in the background as I type.
I feel Silent Screams is the best song Halford made when he was out of Judas Priest
I think Kel would appreciate The Spirit Carries On from Dream Theater. Live at Radio City Music Hall.
Judas Priest and the twin axe attack. Love it \m/
Some of the old 70's stuff is so different from what you just heard but still amazing. Much more light and shade and Robs voice as even more amazing back then.
You guys are AMAZING! I have just recently discovered your channel and I find you guys so refreshing in your reactions to discovering bands that I grew up with and seeing your reaction and appreciation for them. I express my sincere condolences for your loss. I'm sure he smiles on you both discovering this music. You have a fan for life! God Bless You Both.
\M/ Like, I'm black, like Seal 1991 Crazy era black, the Halford chills hit me hard and I KNOW I got goosebumps somewhere, just need to look in the right light \M/
Thanks for cracking our shit up constantly.
As someone who grew up with epilepsy as well as a love of Judas Priest it was touching to hear you talk about your son and why JP means so much to the channel. My first grand mal seizure happened on 7/7/77. I was four years old. Thankfully, I outgrew it when I was about 12. I am so sorry about your son, Rich. While I can't relate to your pain I do relate to what it is like to struggle with epilepsy. As for JPs place in metal it seems to me that while Sabbath and Zeppelin have elements of folk and psychedelia to them Priest was the band that made metal it's own form. They were influenced by those bands obviously as well as Deep Purple and others but metal didn't come into its own until Judas Priest. Godspeed. I enjoyed the video.
Black Sabbath and Zepplin created heavy metal... Judas Priest perfected it, and gave it dress code (leather, metal studs, gauntlets).
Great reaction to two awesome songs
have you heard of or reacted to 220 Volt from Sweden? The had albums 220 Volt,Power Games,Mind over Muscle,Electric Messengers(compilation album for USA),Young and Wild,Eye to Eye,Lethal Illusion,Volume I(5 studio tracks and the rest live songs),Walking in Starlight came out in 2014 I love every song on every album. ]:P
Two amazing songs.
PRIEEESSSSTTTT!!!
I did have someone to listen to music with for 20 years. We both liked metal and other kinds of music but our relationship ended 10 years ago. But I still love this music and your channel. Keep up the good work.
Painkiller is a Judas Priest must...
You will never see another live metal vocal that explosive and or raw and real.
Victim of Changes live at Seminole Hard Rock Arena blows unleashed in the east away someone challenge me on this 🤘🤘
