Judas Priest's 1990 release, PAINKILLER, shows the band returning to ferocious metal after such musical detours as 1986's TURBO. It also proved to be the British band's last outing with original singer Rob Halford. Drummer Scott Travis (ex-Racer X) makes his Priest debut here, while the sound and songwriting is comparable to thrash/speed metal.

The album-opening title track is one of Priest's heaviest and greatest songs (brace yourself before it kicks in!), and the band takes no prisoners on such titles as "Hell Patrol" and "A Touch of Evil." An inspired way to close out Halford-era Priest.

Principally recorded at Miraval Studios, Brignoles, France in 1990. Includes liner notes by Judas Priest.

Digitally remastered by Jon Astley.

Personnel: Rob Halford (vocals); Glenn Tipton, K.K. Downing (guitar); Ian Hill (bass guitar); Scott Travis (drums).

Liner Note Author: Judas Priest.

Recording information: Miraval Studios, France (1990); Wisseloord Studios, The Netherlands (1990).

Illustrator: Mark Wilkinson.

Arrangers: Chris Tsangarides; Glenn Tipton; K.K. Downing; Rob Halford.

Judas Priest: Rob Halford (vocals); K.K. Downing, Glenn Tipton (guitar); Ian Hill (bass); Scott Travis (drums).

Q (2/91) - Recommended as one of the five best metal albums of 1990. - "..A tight, aggressive and potent package from a band which is almost as old as metal itself. It followed the oft-documented US court case, from which they emerged triumphant."
Kerrang (Magazine) (p.52) - "A powerhouse performance par excellence....Incredible songs. Amazing production..."

5 stars The Drums From HELL!!!
Scott Travis is IMO the best heavy metal drummer of all time. The fury on the title track, Hell Patrol, Between the Hammer and the Anvil, and All Guns Blazing is incredible. Also listen to A Touch of Evil. Halford's primal scream proves a good match for Travis' furioso drumming. A+++++++

5 stars addictive metal!
i wish it will be a definitive album and when i saw that metal works, british steel and screaming got the nod for definitive albums i had to get this one. i heard of painkiller on uranium with the sexy hostess juliya that was when fuse was cool now they stunk. back on topic painkiller is the speediest, most hyperactively cool cd yet. faster than british steel but also essential. painkiller ROCKED!!!! leather rebel, all guns blazing, hell patrol, night crawler and a touch of evil rocked as well. you also get a casting of drummers and most of them remind me of when the red hot chilli peppers got a lot of guitar players. simon and les are good and underrated and dave was a cool drummer who keeps the beat slow or fast but travis is speedy gonzalez on double bass. hear and drool at the audio. he would have been the neil peart of the band and he was still young but i loved his drums and so does everyone else. so go get it.
