Pantera shows how its done. Sadly Kev Shirley is only Steve's servant and not a so much needed opponent. Their last 4 outputs sound all the same to me sry to say that. Prolonged intros+outros, strained Bruce (I got it he suffered from a throat cancer, but still...look at Halford) and strangely mixed guitars. Yeah there are like 3-4 songs I really do like (When River Runs Deep, The Red and The Black...) but in general I like last 5 Priest outputs MUCH more.
Always been more of an Iron Maiden fan and, unfortunately, got introduced to Priest in Turbo years. Had to go back in their catalog to get some good music. Disagree about the 2000+ Maiden. Mostly solid releases with AMOLAD bring one of my favorite albums by them. I don’t expect any band in their 60s and 70s to capture the great sound of their classic era, but do find them enjoyable.
At least you have the original Maiden CDs - they sound great. Those 2001 Priest remasters are terrible - completely ruined the music with brickwalled compression (and bonus tracks that made no sense relative to the album they appeared on, bar ‘Painkiller’). Check out their first issue CDs, far superior 😉🤘
@@vikingraven4156 Check out discogs my friend. There’s a nice Japanese series from 1991, ESCA, if you’re into extpanded booklets of lyrics. Otherwise the US/EU CDs are great 😉

I am not a Judas Priest fan but you are a huge clown Shawn. Iron Maiden plays the same shit like 4 albums in a row but Iron Maiden fans are very undemanding and buy literally every shit their idols produce. Their last enjoyable album was Dance of Death. Nowadays Iron Maiden is more like a brandmark not a band. Boring, generic, prolonged and they call it "prog" that is the funniest thing about it. Judas Priest try to play fresh and new FAST songs at least. God bless them.
maiden tends to sound all the same "Gallop Gallop Gallop" . With Priest you never know what you will get
I agree with current maiden
When Priest are out of their comfort zone, you always get garbage music 🤷
Maiden all the way Baby 🤟🏼🤟🏼
Maybe back in the day but priest has been better more recently. Have you heard Invincible shield?
Iron Maiden is better than any band period.
I don't think so,but glad you enjoy them that much
hmmmm gimme a minute...hmm they are not. Iron Maiden stopped being Maiden like in 1997

@@davidknichal6629but Maiden from 1980 to 2003 is otherwordly. Even the Blaze albums have gems. They went downhill after Dance of Death, I'd say
Iron Maiden for a life🤘🤘🤘
if only....
Have been iron Maiden fan but Judas Priests "Firepower" album sweeps the floor with the Maidens "Senjutsu" album
sadly Invincible even more...I wish Martin Birch came back, but that horrible death took him away
Yeah, Maiden's new music always gets ruined by the Caveman. Solo Bruce sounds way better
They are both great
Priest as they have more of an edge though I like Maiden too.
Maiden are the Followers.
Well for me personally its no contest and maiden for the win. Just their 2 first albums r better than any priest album Ive ever heard

Thanks for comment..I just can't get into later maiden as stated why..glad you enjoy them
They are both great bands with very different sounds. How can they be compared?
Iron Maiden is great and popular band, Judas Priest are the Metal Gods.
Painkiller ,Firepower and Invincible Shield are all far better than any Maiden album since the 80s.
Damn, I didn't listen to the last two, are they on the same level than Painkiller?? I got to check em out
Great analysis!
Judas priest enough said.

I agree
I'm trying to get originals.. I hate remastered versions

Iron maiden has a few songs that are okay... Judas priest has hundreds of songs that are great!
Iron Maiden is by far better!!!
