## Description

The twelfth studio album by the British heavy metal band, originally released in September 1990. It is the last Judas Priest album to feature lead singer Rob Halford until his return for the 2005 album 'Angel of Retribution' and the first to feature drummer Scott Travis.

Review: Superb Metal Album - This was the last Rob halford album with the band before he left for over a decade due to a misunderstanding and for me it’s one of the best.Every track is quality and the music and vocals are powerful.If you like Judas Priest this album is a must have.
Review: What a shot at glory! - Painkiller was my first experience of Priest back in 1990 and my pretty worn out cassette stands testament to how much I loved the album at the time. Some 24 and a bit years on, I still love this album and rate it as a Priest classic. It's decidedly more aggressive than anything they had put out previously with the band seemingly fired up and bursting out the speakers with a new lease of life. Maybe it can attributed to Scott Travis' harder drumming which features more prominent use of the double bass pedal or maybe the band wanted to compete with fresher heavier bands at time. Either way, they came out all guns blazing and this album is a barnstormer. Lyrically it's not their finest hour, it's typical, silly OTT metal but who cares when it's this enjoyable. I don't think I could ever tire of 'Nightcrawler' and 'Between the Hammer and the Anvil' back to back and 'One Shot at Glory' is a great end piece. The 'Import' CD I have ordered here is actually the older version prior to the 2001 remastered editions with the bonus tracks. I wanted this one simply because the mastering is so much better - the remastered version is a very harsh sounding, dynamic range compressed disc. This is much more listenable, just a bit quieter. Crank it up and it sounds much better.
