This song isn't even a song. It's literally metal.

This is the metaliest metal song that ever metaled.

The 90´s : Metal is dead Judas Priest: Hold my beer...

The Judas Priest catalog is one of the best rabbit-holes you'll ever run down.

One drummer, one bass player, two guitarists, and a singer with a killer range.

This is why a lot of old metalheads don't need coffee.

Scott Travis is one of the most underrated drummers in metal. The embarrassing thing is, if your an old school power drummer like me, he makes this song look easy. For me, Travis is like the Cozy Powell of metal.

Not only is Scott Travis the one and only drummer on that track, he makes it look EFFORTLESS. That is only a FRACTION of what he is capable of. See some live footage of him playing. Amazing.

This song makes me want to fight a mountain. This is the most pure metal song in the universe.

The whole Painkiller album is a freakin masterpiece.

I think what makes this song SO nuts is that it continues to build momentum. Like, ALWAYS. You can find songs that maybe are heavier, lower tuned or faster but this song has intensity that never EVER slows.

This song literally turns your blood to fluid metal 🎸🤟

"Painkiller" is such a continuous musical assault that there's hardly a chance to pause the playback!

Dude, you got a mention in a new Rolling Stone article!

"They are melting the black off my face" Best line ever! Lol

I’m 52 and have been into all kinds of music but mainly metal. This is one of the most relentless, aggressive, and driving tunes you will ever hear.

"RIGHT OUT THE GATE?!" he says during the calmest part of the song

2020: plagues, riots, destructive weather, economic downturns. One man just wants to discover good music and share it to the world. 🤘 keep rocking on brother, you are doing an amazing service to your listeners.

The single greatest guitar duo ever! Glen and KK are so flawless you can barely tell where one stops and the other begins during the solo sections where they trade off at least 5 times.

"Hellion/electric eye" is a most by Judas Priest

Jamal, that's one drummer. That's my childhood friend Scott Travis, from here in Virginia, amazing drummer 6 foot 7 in tall..💯

One drummer, two guitarists, one bassist and the metal God on vocals.

As several people have mentioned "Victim of Changes". which I feel is their masterpiece which is on the album "Sad Wings of Destimy". I would highly recommend you listen to some of the early Judas Priest songs to get a better understanding of their original style. They have changed through the years. I personally like the old Judas Priest from 1976 to 1981. In 1982 "Screaming for Vengeance was a turn for me to a commercialized album some. But still good. Thanks for your channel. Great watching it.

If you look up metal in the dictionary the definition is just : Judas Priest

YOU'VE JUST BEEN BLESSED BY THE GODS OF METAL!

There is one drummer and his name is Scott Travis.

He's actually an octopus , Scott Travis.

"This is not one man!" - It was in fact one man - That's Scott Travis, he used to play in a speed metal band before Priest and this was his album debut with Priest. This was literally the first thing Priest fans would hear from him and can you imagine a stronger way of introducing yourself to a fandom? It's also the first song on the album, so the whole album literally starts with this insane drum intro.

Judas Priest song BEYOND THE REALMS OF DEATH

The unbelievable thing is: Rob Halford screams like a Harpiye but sings like a angel

Really need to hear "Victim of Changes." This song saved me from a bad relationship. Priest saved my sanity and my life.

That was pretty much my reaction too, back in the day. And let it be noted that i had couple of years of Maiden, Megadeth and such under the belt. This hit HARD.

The drummer is Mr Scott Travis. He's a bad ass !!

Rob Halford is the “metal god”!!!

DISSIDENT AGGRESSOR from the Sin After Sin Album

Jamel, if this was your first taste of Priest, you took a BIG ol bite. Much respect for that. Priest wasnt just heavy metal though, there consisted of artists surrounding a story teller with one of the best voices to ever grace your ears. I put Rob Halford in top 5 vocalists of all time. You could literally do a 2 week reaction series and only scratch the surface with them. Please do yourself a favor and explore some of their earliest songs. Cheater, Run of the Mill, Epitaph, Green Manalishi, Sinner, but definitely The Sentinal! I hope your mind can handle the Eargasm that you just opened yourself up to. Bravo my good sir! BRAVO!

The Painkiller is a Metal God who rides a motorcycle that Saint Halford summons from Heaven to destroy all the pain and misery in the world 🤘

FDA Warning: Do not operate heavy machinery while on "Painkiller". You will speed and potentially crash. Side effects include self-imposed whiplash, road rage, and the intense urge to break the speed of light with your vehicle.

The lead guitar in this song is phenomenal Glenn Tipton is the man

Love the 49er hat . Been a Niners fan since I was 5 . I am 57now. Been a Priest fan since 81. I played this song at my husband's funeral. And four months later at my daughter's wedding. One drummer , Scott Travis. We love Priest saw them 13 times ! ❤

"They done melted the black off my face!" ...had me seriously in stitches laughing so hard bruh! ...thank you. and yes, now go watch the official video...as long as you dont get epilepsic seizures lol ooooh...and now try to workout to this song and see if you can match their intensity! roflmao 🤣🤣🤣 ..and please do Judast Priest: Nightcrawler. it too is off this album

Metal head, reporting for duty, sir!! Great choice!

Not all of their songs are THIS intense, but they have a lot of really great ones. Rob Halford has amazing vocal range. "You've Got Another Thing Coming", "Breaking the Law", and "Hell Bent for Leather" are all metal classics.

1 drummer, 2 guitars and the operatic vocal style singing of Rob Halford!!! My absolutely favorite live band, so tight live

Only one drummer. “Meltin’ the black off my face.” LMAO! You’re hilarious, my friend. Yeah, Pain Killer is one ripping song. And that octopus on the drums is a great drummer, Scott Travis. The pain killer character from this album saves mankind from extinction. Thank you for the video! You rock!

You have LOOOOONNNGGG way to go on this road.

They go all in ..i love it ...pure metal and love ..thats musik thats passion

Saw them live in 08 with sabbath, testament, and heaven and hell... Probably still the best concert I've ever been to

When you listen to this song during your morning jog, it makes you want to run 100 miles in 5 minutes.

Do OLD SCHOOL Judas Priest!!! “Victim of Changes”, “Beyond the Realms of Death”, “Don’t Go”, “Screaming for Vengeance”, “You’ve Got Another Thing Comin’”, “Hell Bent for Leather”, “Diamonds & Rust”, ANYTHING from the British Steel album. Judas Priest was my first concert in ‘82. I was ruined for life...no other band could come close to their performance. I wouldn’t choose this song for you to react to.

"They are melting my face" haha, this may be my new fave metal description.

Ah, finally... music that makes your brain boil. Judas Priest has only one drummer, but their secret weapon is their two lead guitarists. And, speaking of having your face melted, listen and react to Y&T's "I'm Coming Home," off of their Face Melter album. That and their song, "Mean Streak." Guitar virtuosity in both of these bands. Judas Priest has two lead guitarists. Just one drummer. Welcome to 80's metal.

Victim of Changes is a "must do"

This album was like a slap to the face, and a kick to the balls. It was so different from their previous work.

So you glad checked this out. For my money, one of the best metal songs in history. Absolute rocker from start to stop

Listen to the whole album. It's one if not their best album ever.

Just one drummer, dual bass drums using heel-toe method can hit the bass pedal twice per stroke

I was never a big Judas Priest fan, but this is balls out just rocking.

Best reaction in a long time! "Melted the black off my face." Similar First reaction of many to this. Priest got their metal gear retired by many people until this album. They helped invent speed and thrash in their early career (Exciter, Sinner, Call For The Priest) and critics said that Priest "tried their hand at speed/thrash" here. ???

Jamel was trying to find a place to pause for like 2 minutes, lol. Good luck. Love you Jamel.

By the way, what Glenn Tipton does on his solo is technical and well thought out. Deceptively pretty guitar work but also very aggressive at the same time

RIGHT OUT THE GATE?!?! Yes, this song is literally metal

Painkiller was a shot across the bow to all the thrash bands, saying "Hey...WE can do speed metal, too...and do it BETTER!".

Travis's drum playing on this song is just epic. Freaking epic.And lets not even start on what Tipton is doing to that guitar.

Do "Nightcrawler" by Judas Priest, please and thank you. By the way, Rob doesn't always sing that high.

I saw the mighty Priest on this tour back in 90'91 & to say it was a killer show would be an understatement...

Trust me, its just one person absolutely demolishing our eardrums with that double bass

Just before the solo he’s like: “Let me pause it to reac- NOPE. GOTTA KEEP GOING!”

A lilting, gentle ballad suitable for quiet nights.

Younger bucks probably won't remember this, but Judas Priest, known by many as one of the top 3 metal bands of all time, was HEEEEEEEAAAAAAVVVVVVYYYY. Even for today a lot of their earlier stuff would be considered very heavy metal. Not 'Cookie Monster Metal' like the new stuff. But heavy none-the-less. So when Priest came out with Turbo, which had a bit more of a pop edge to it by comparison, they were criticized. So their next album was balls-droppingly hard. This is the result.

This transition they made from the 80’s metal to the 90’s to keep up with the times and newer bands coming out, faster and heavier, was absolutely incredible, and if not the best, one of the best of all time!!!! Like many in here have said the entire album is a masterpiece!!!!

Scott Travis. One man. 30 years later he can still bang this out.

Look up the live version of Judas Priest-- "You got another thing coming" Or, as listed exactly as: Judas Priest - You've Got Another Thing Comin' (Live)

This was released in 1990!! From a band that was part of the first wave of British heavy metal. This was an awesome heavy album from them!!

This is one of the many reasons why Priest are one of the all time greatest metal bands. 🤘🤘🎸🎵

"Mario just got the star button" XD That's one of the funniest reactions i've ever heard. Judas Priest on this album wanted to create a totally new sound for the band and decided to double triple and quadruple the heaviosity. The entire album is some of the most facemelting metal ever recorded! Highly recommend you check out Touch of Evil and Metal Meltdown off this same album as well brother! you'll love it. hahahah and just one drummer!!! The incredible Scott Travis!! This was the first song on his first album with the band.... needless to say it took about a fraction of a second for him to win over the fans XD Also the song itself is about the adrenaline you feel when listening to killer metal. When its fast enough, loud enough, and awesome enough, he melts your face and you feel no pain. Haha the last verse even goes so far as to say that the Painkiller is powerful enough to resurrect the dead and save mankind from the apocalypse. The power of metal \m/

I was stationed in Germany when this was released, it was the first song on my mix tape for driving on the Autobahn.

The first time anyone hears this song it just fries their brain!! Top 10 metal songs of all time!! Love the channel!!

The solo in this is amazing. Entire album is legit

\m/ Thank you for coming back to metal. The hole goes very deep, my friend.

I guess I’ll go with the obvious recommendation - Victim of Changes for an earlier Priest song with a different feel.

This song changed my mind about Judas Priest. They really are top tier metal.

Rob Halford and Judas Priest are truly amazing they can be so laid back and mellow like a Pink Floyd song or they can fire it up and blow your mind with the Heavy Ass Riffs.

When you listen to this song, you can't stop your head from banging to the rhythm. It's unavoidable. That's the sign of classic metal.

When this is your wake up music, you don't need coffee! You just ride the energy wave all day!

Waking up to this song I don't need coffee, coffee needs me!

My good sir yes.. Yes its one drummer one octopus of a man hes a legend

I can't wait for this one. Just wait for the sólo. The badass song

Three words "Victim of Changes" live or studio. One of their first, and best. About a woman changing, growing away from a man.

You keep giving these glimpses that ur a metal head at heart. You make these subtle dance moves when listening to this song and I can see you want to just let loose and head bang. Haha. You feel the music,and that is inspiring!

The live version of "Victim of Changes" is intense....

In the immortal words of the Highlander, There can be only one.

The Priest at their best ☝️ thanks for the reaction bro ☝️

1 drummer, 2 LEAD guitarists, 1 bassist, 1 Metal God ( vocalist Rob Halford).And remember this was done circa 1990.

Your reaction is so accurate, man! :D This song is an old-school ride through hell! Peak british heavy metal! ❤️ Edit: You ain't gonna catch a break! Not this time! 🤣

You should try and check out some of the early stuff when Rob Halford's vocals were at their peak, try "Beyond the realms of death " or "Victim of changes". By the way, you are awesome!!

You need to react to Victim of Changes by Judas Priest, it will blow your mind that this is from a Metal Band!!!!

1 band and 1 drummer alright! The godfathers of heavy metal at their absolute finest!

"That octopus on the drums...man." Thanks for making me smile :)

JAMAL! Please do “Diamonds and Rust”, which is a Joan Baez song covered by Judas Priest. thanks pal, keep up the great work!!!
