Guest: Erik Shaw from Maiden A-Z of the Deep Dive Podcast Network.

Happy 40th anniversary to Screaming for Vengeance! Judas Priest's 8th studio album holds some of their most popular songs... but we're not here to talk about those. Your hosts are dying to talk about "Bloodstone", a personal favorite of the panel. George, Tom, and Hattie are joined by returning guest Erik to wax poetic on abstract lyrics and funky guitar lines. We also look at a live version from 2018, and share some thoughts on the whole album. This episode has seen reason change to treason, and will make you lose sense of all kind!

Your hosts finally touch on the last Judas Priest album they've yet to explore! 2014's Redeemer of Souls was the first to feature Richie Faulkner on guitars, and the 17th Judas Priest album overall. George, Tom, and Hattie are joined by returning guest Erik to talk about "Halls of Valhalla", the standout track from Redeemer. The group also ponders why this album is relatively unpopular in the band's canon and consider what its long-term legacy may be. This episode is as fierce as the gale upon the north sea.

Join our first foray into 1997's Jugulator, the first of two Judas Priest albums featuring Tim Owens on vocals, and a controversial entry in the Judas Priest canon. "Death Row" is our song of the week. Your hosts level some hard criticisms at the song where it's warranted, but praise the performances where it's due. George, Tom, and Hattie address the different opinions of Jugulator held by the fanbase and give their own impressions of the album. This episode will show no mercy, so don't anticipate it.
