I have to go with 'Exciter', which still seems to immediately signal an amazing transition to a new paradigm of metal.

I came here to vote for "Turbo Lover", and now I am sad

no painkiller?

i stopped after 'Defenders' (when Judas Priest broke up in my world, for better or worse) ... I couldn't bare to look any further ... but you can write-in if you like! I promise to tally all write-ins that I may have missed.

"Turbo Lover" doesn't fit the one-word rule! (tho I did kind of cheat with 'the' Ripper)

Stormy Davis, Thursday, 6 March 2008 06:16 (sixteen years ago) link

oh shit, missed the one word stipulation. You win, I'm dumb.

(also, in truth, there are many better songs on this list than "Turbo Lover", i just had a flash of junior high nostalgia.)

Nice poll Stormy! And thanks for giving me the impetus to create a similar poll, which I shall do post-haste. (Watch for it...)

"Exciter", btw.

Yeah, Painkiller would be my choice if it was there.

Nevertheless, I have to go with The RipPAH!

This is so hard but I have to go with "Sinner". Simon Phillips' drumming on that track just makes it into a new kind of music entirely. His work on the hi-hat during the breakdown is so fucking sweet.

The film Cecil B Demented basically ruined Exciter for me, as I always hear the words "Demented Forever" when I think of that melody now.
Hmph, I opened this to vote Painkiller, but I guess I'll go for The Ripper.

Øystein, Thursday, 6 March 2008 10:26 (sixteen years ago) link

Had to go with Ripper even though it is two words. Just as well you included it cuz I couldn't decide between Sinner and Exciter anyway.

Kinda surprised there's so much luv for later Priest. I didn't realize Painkiller was so popular.

You're in for surprise
You're in for a shockAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Had to go for that really.

What the fuck? NO "Painkiller"?

Around A&A's aunties (my wife's sister), they put on a "bet of heavy metal" CD that came free with some paper or other. "Breaking the lawer" came on, and both Amber and Alice went straight into headbanging mode, hand sigs and "BREAKIN THE LAW BREAKING THE LAWer", to auntie's "What are you doing with those kids?" (She's more a formby fan herself..."

best of HM, obv.

Mark G, Thursday, 6 March 2008 14:11 (sixteen years ago) link

I preferred it when metal was called HM.

Matt #2, Thursday, 6 March 2008 14:11 (sixteen years ago) link

yeah. You knew it.

I would have voted Painkiller
