  Judas Priest - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Judas Priest is an influential heavy metal band formed in 1969 in Birmingham, England by K.K. Downing and Ian Hill.
One of the progenitors of heavy metal, Judas Priest are best known for their twin-lead-guitar sound and the complex guitar duets of K.K. Downing and Glenn Tipton; and for Rob Halford's high-pitched, screaming lead vocals.
In a television interview, Judas Priest members commented that if they wanted to insert subliminal commands in their music, killing their fans would be counterproductive, and they would prefer to insert the command "Buy more of our records".

The album also means a lot to me personally as I have a friend from high school who I haven't seen in well over 12 years who used to listen to this album with me a lot - we'd both do the air guitar thing to it.

 Judas Priest: Angel of Retribution - PopMatters Music Review
Iron Maiden and Judas Priest were two of the world's premiere acts in the '80s, but by 1992, both bands were in the midst of their own identity crises.
The acoustic "Angel" is a nice touch, as Priest revisits the mellower sounds of their groundbreaking 1976 album Sad Wings of Destiny, but the biggest surprise on the record is the fantastic "Worth Fighting For", a midtempo rocker that hearkens back to the radio-friendly Point of Entry album from 1981.
Priest has been known to dish out some world-class cheese in the past (to this day, "United" makes this writer cringe), but this song perilously walks the tightrope between Manowar style ridiculousness and embarrassing self-parody.

Their first new album in four years, following 1997’s Grammy Award®-nominated JUGULATOR comeback, Judas Priest’s 14th studio effort is a stunning return to form, with jet-powered tracks like the incendiary Machine Man and Feed On Me evincing the band’s continuing mastery of brain-busting, pulse-pounding rock n’ roll.
By combining the trademark Priest guitar overdrive with a modern cutting-edge attitude, DEMOLITION proves that the band are more than prepared to make their mark on the current music scene.
Mixing operatic drama with traditional guitar overload, Priest set themselves up as the true defenders of the metal faith, one of the few bands willing to state their no-holds-barred allegiance to the cause, and one quite capable of backing up that allegiance through the sheer power of their music.
