Reviewed by Ander Garmendia from Bogotá, Colombia

I have been an avid Judas Priest and metal fan for about 20 years now, and I must say that this album has stood the test of time better than most. Even though I like most of Priest's albums and changes over time, this is by far their best effort. I can't believe this is their second album, right after Rocka Rolla, which in my opinion is their weakest. How could they have evolved so much in less than a year? It beats me.

Apart from the all-time classics that everybody praises ("The Ripper", "Genocide" and "Victim of Changes"), I must say that I truly enjoy every single track. The incredible transition between "Epitaph" and "Island of Domination" leads to one of the best song intros of all times. This song, along with "Let Us Prey" from the album "Sin After Sin" are JP's most underrated songs in my not-so-humble opinion.

Keep on rockin'
