Judas Priest / Painkiller (1990)

"Painkiller" is all what metal's about! A classic metal album with big balls! This album, originally released in 1990, dropped like a bomb in the metal world with its freshness, rawness and the killer songs. For this album the Priest asked from drummer Scott Travis (ex-Racer X) to help them, and the result is simply amazing.  He added a new dimension, heavier, to Judas Priest with his double bass kick work.I could write a lot about this classic effort but the best thing you have to do is to go out and buy it, or maybe hear it once again, because I think that every one of you hard n' heavy maniacs out there you already own this gem!!
