This is their best album and really one of the best metal albums ever. They update their sound incorporating speed and thrash metal and sound re-energized. So many great songs here, the best of being "Painkiller", "Touch Of Evil", and "All Guns Blazing". Really the only thing bad about the album is that the lyrics are terrible. But the music is just so strong that the lyric insanity is not that big of a deal. 10/10

I love this album, dont get me wrong, but i feel that Tipon and KK were abit lazy (with the exception of the title track and Metal Meltdown) with their guitar work. But a bloody good album!!

Powerfull music with the voice of Halford, one of the best Priest albums, and of course one of the best metal albums of all times.

Priest's 8th Classic album after sad wings of destiny, sin after sin, stained class, hell bent for leather, british steel, screaming for vengeance and defenders of the faith. That's more (classic album) than metallica, iron maiden and motleycrue did which undoubtedly signified priest's position as one of metal's all time great. that said, this album shows priest moving towards speed metal as the ryhthm here are speed up and double bass sound are used. Songs like leather rebel, metal meltdown and

The title track thrash like mad.Halford's shrieking and growling is positively frightening, as he uses his incredible vocal range to an almost King Diamond-like effect. This record proves that judas priest fight with the best of em not just in terms of greatness but heaviness as well. I often heard iron maiden fan saying that priest is a lighter version of metal but non of maiden's songs that i've heard compare to the materials here in terms of speed, brutality, agressiveness and yes, perhaps ev

Overall, the best album priest had come up with since screaming for vengeance and some might say, hell bent for leather or sin after sin depending on individual taste and views. Ratings: 10/10

What can i say I am not into such heavy stuff but JUDAS is my exception I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED THIS BAND AND I ALWAYS WILL. To me the ultimate metal rock experience with best musicianship and skill ever. They were condemned to success with such phenomenal guitarists and voice. . I have all their official studio records up to Painkiller. Later on they lost their shine and i didn't buy anything after that .But Judas will always have a special place in my heart and soul!!! LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!!

You'd be forgiven for thinking Judas Priest's time had come and gone by 1990. Their commercial heyday of 1980-'84 fading in the rearview, followed by two subpar albums, it seemed like only the band's termendous legacy was keeping them afloat. Man! What a statement Painkiller made, proving the band still had plenty of gas in the tank. Heavy, fast, riffs for days, hardly a keyboard in sight, Downing and Tipton ripping it up like never before, Halford as strong as ever, there just isn't a bad song on this disc. The top highlight is, of course, the title track, with that awesome drum intro from new addition Scott Travis (replacing the kid-toucher Dave Holland). Pretty much every other song is a notable, especially "Nightcrawler," "All Guns Blazing" and "A Touch Of Evil."

Seemingly singlehandedly, Painkiller launched the ships of Primal Fear, Hammerfall, Cage, and countless other new-millennium power-metal bands.

A good album with two of the greatests Priest songs in it("Painkiller" & "A Touch Of Evil")...basically the whole album is a dope of classic HM stuff..."Battle Of Hymn" is also another "killer" cut just to name a third one well worth listening deeply.85/100

The three singles are very solid, yes, but for some reason I never really liked the album very much as a whole. A few fillers and playing very heavy, a few weeks after Pantera released Cowboys might have been perfect timing, but does not necessarily mean the best result. I know Painkiller is very popular among 'brutal metal fans', but I actually like Defenders the best, 8 amazing songs in a row, and Vengeance even had the melodic single Take these chains whereas Steel had an almost pop hit in Living after midnight-that's classic Priest to old-school Judas fans. Surprisingly Painkiller 'only' sold gold, whereas several others reached platinum. When comparing Painkiller to Living after midnight, it almost seems like two different bands. Chris Tsangarides was much better soundwise than Tom Allom; I never found 80s Priest having great sound (muddy bass and drums with way too loud crash cymbals in the mix). Maiden and Queensr˙che both had killer sound in the 80s, just for a comparison.
