@@rba8904 You can throw in all the '70s albums but, for me, the best 5 would be: Sad Wings of Destiny, Stained Class, Killing Machine, Unleashed in the East, and British Steel (fair enough, this was released in '80 but was written and started recording in '79). That's a highly impressive body of metal work that is.
@@stevebryant6483 I read somewhere they were still living out of their van when they recorded this track so I must've over extrapolated lol. Such an amazing song n Thanks for sharing!
The range Halford's vocie goes through in Dreamer alone is astounding. In most other bands it'd take four different singers each specializing in a range to do that.
Priest was the 1st band to exit the blues based heavy sound (after this album)......and create the "metal" sound we know today?? Serious music critics say the "Sin after Sin" album (77) is the first true "metal" album, & one of the top 5 ever pressed?? And I agree!!!.... (after 35 yrs of listening to metal)....it is a Masterpiece... (with maybe 1 filler song)! "Dissident Aggressor" - best "thrash metal" song ever! ....Might have been the first as well? You should check it out!
great honest reaction, i hope you give Priest another chance many great songs in the 70's (beyond the realms of death) to discover. really like your videos real and honest. keep making more!
@@jonmallek7746 I just never truly appreciated his vocals and to be honest, I have very limited exposure. I know he has long been renowned as a metal god. Now I can hear why. I still have two others in mind, who in my opinion, are formidable contenders though.
Reminds you of Metallica and Iron Maiden......before they existed. Wonder why? This was 1976 when Disco was the shit. "Beyond the Realms of Death". You know you want to try it. Maybe "Victim of Changes"?
Actually Metallica sounded like Judas Priest many bands were influenced by Judas it is a known fact. Judas are the ones who gave birth to heavy metal in ‘78 with Hell bent for Leather. I have a strong suggestion for you but I’m sure you won’t bother but an all female metal band out of Japan called Lovebites, any song you check out will blow you away ruclips.net/video/yWE7PqCpGi4/видео.html
Nice review. References to Purple and Sabbath - definitely, even some Zeppelin . All that was going on at that time. Sounds like Metallica - nope, nope, can’t agree. This came out in 1976. Metallica were still pooping in their diapers. Metallica being obviously influenced by JP (and obviously others) - yes. Metallica defining their own sound based on that influence - definitely, definitely yes. I only say this cauz I hear this a lot - JP and others sounds like Metallica when the influence is the other way around. That said, love both bands (and 100 others) cauz Metal is the best. And, keep doing your review as I think your reviews are interesting!
Thanks! With the whole Metallica thing, i just worded it wrong, but its just the way i think, it sounds similar to the X band because i heard that song or band before hearing the song or band that influenced band X. No dissrespect meant towards it. and im not even a Metallica fan.
@@Gedo_ it’s all good. Also didn’t mean to sound that harsh, sorry about that. Continue your JP journey as it is a very interesting and diverse one. Also check out some early Metallica - it kicks too.
I might be in the minority but a like 70’s priest more than later priest. This album in particular.
Oh I am with you on that concept
I'm with ya too. I do like newer priest, but I don't think it gets any better than Sad Wings and Rocka Rolla.
You can count me in mate.
count me in as well

One of the most underated metal records in music history.
Best song for showing off the vocal range of Rob. Also, the best album from them, IMO. I think it;s a landmark record for ALL music.
Totally agree
70’s Priest the best 🤘🤘🤘
Was it their debut album?
@@societyreborn33 2nd album 1 1/2 years after debut, Rocka Rolla.

here come the tears..... Rob at his best
This is the band that started every f****** thing you listen to now.
The range Halford's vocie goes through in Dreamer alone is astounding.

1975 live version on BBC is the best I've ever seen. It was before fame. It's very special
Sabbath and priest were around at the same time and both are from birmingham england that's why they are similar sounding.

Thank you for reacting to my suggestion Gedo! You would really like the classic rock phase of Judas Priest. First 4-5 albums.
I personally prefer this Judas Priest to what came later.
@@LeeGion_981 Me too. Amazing riffs and solos and great clean vocals!
Epitaph on the same album, more lower register vocals from Rob and a very different pace.
Also effing great Queen-like vocal harmonics. Very underrated song
real priest fans know the 70's albums are the best of their career
great honest reaction, i hope you give Priest another chance many great songs in the 70's (beyond the realms of death) to discover.
really like your videos real and honest. keep making more!
Now I can finally appreciate Rob’s vocal abilities
Yes robs got an incredible vocal range
What took you so long?

FUCKING EH !!!!!! GREAT REACTION ....GREAT SONGS !!!! 70'S PRIEST IS THE BEST OF THEIR ERA.....THESE GUYS FUCKING COOK .... ESPECIALLY HALFORD !!!
Excellent analysis and reaction. Bonus points for the Opeth shirt. Cheers!
Nice reaction, and like your insight. Stay awesome 👍🏻

Beyond of the realms 👌🏼

All these bands should be reminding you of Priest, you have it all backwards.
Same for me. Never was really into Priest, sadly. More into Maiden
Dude, you knew Opeth but not Priest? :)

Whats the point of reacting if you're only going to say what it reminds you of when the song has its own standing.
This guy is driving me nuts.
How do you call yourself a metal head and not know much about Priest.
