i agree with ladiesman  heaven and hell  is a solid album.   so is scorpions  blackout, along with master of puppets..........................it's just to hard to decide!

Jeez, greatest metal album ever?  Half the time I can't even decide on my favorite Priest album...

I'm a huge Priest fan, but I think most any metal fan can agree that Painkiller has to be in the running for that title.  That album embodies everything metal from start to finish.  There is no flaw, heavy to the core, and relentless in it's aggression.

I'm a youngun', so I wasn't around when SFV or BS came out, wasn't a part of the time of those albums came out unfortunately.  Had I been there, I'm sure my opinion would be different, so I can't argue against anyone saying British Steel, or Screaming was the best.

Yes,I agree....speed does not make a good record. British Steel was a "Painkiller" of 1980 though!! Tracks like "Steeler" and "Rapid Fire" in 1980 were the "Metal Meltdown"  and Painkiller" of its time.

I think British Steel Defined Metal, and then Painkiller took it to a new level. Everyone wanted to get harder and faster than that, but at the same time many bands became crap, because speed alone does not make a good band.  IMO

Wow,so you basically heard it when it came out...thats awsome! British Steel is like the greatest hits of JP..except obviously it is its own album...amazing record. Most people pick Painkiller and I'm not saying that Painkiller is not close...it is close neck and neck........I somehow pull towards British Steel.

The first time I heard it I did not know it was out yet and the boy who took me home from work was playing it. I was listening to "the Rage" and was like, this sounds like priest. Found out it had come out a few days before. Next day I had my dad take me to the mall so I could get it. I was 15 at the time.

Yes spapad,I was 10 years old when this album was released,but it was'nt untill I was 12 years old that I got into this album...about the same time Screaming For Vengeance was released 1982. The first thing/song that got me into Judas Priest was "Heading Out To The Highway" video!

I think the release of British Steal defined what metal was all about.

Hey there Hellion, like I said, 1980 brought us a lot of great Metal.  Granted, I was only 15 in 1980 and I am jaded towards Priest, but you are correct in your assessment of Manowars' '80 release, but that WAS in '80.  I'm saying PRIOR to '80 my friend.

Hey ronhartsell! You had better listen to Dark Avenger - Manowar from Battle Hymns before you make that judgement dude! That came out in 1980 and all I can say is listen and learn dude! Welcome to reality!

I imagine you are referring to my post...the song Steeler is what I was referring to as in nothing sounded quite like it in 1980, it is a pretty heavy song, and there really weren't a lot of fast/heavy songs out there, even from the Scorpions...although 1980 was a year that a lot of great Metal was released...

KINGS OF METAL - MANOWAR
[flashrockinman] Monday, October 20, 2008 3:57:48 AM 
i have to disagree with the the dude who says there was not much rock in 1980.  True statement if you listened to the radio.  If your a real rocker with records in a closet. scorpions where kicking ass with amimal magnetism, although scorpions which been around since 72 never got air play till the blackout album. 82.  so there where other bands in the same boat. that are getting more air play now then when the material been released.
