1001 Albums Summary

Starting off with this one was a nice way to begin the journey. Being already familiar with tracks ‘Breaking the Law’ and ‘After Midnight’, I knew I’d at least have some interest in digging deeper. Judas Priest are a band I was exposed to a bit growing up but have never had my ‘Priest stage’ as an adult as I may have with others. The album was relatively fast paced with songs that all made sense together. The songs I already knew still stuck out though as the stand outs on the album. I heard elements ACDC in ‘The Grinder’ and the kind of punchiness you’d get from the Ramones in ‘You’d have to be old to be wise’.
