Description

Screaming for Vengeance is the eighth studio album by Judas Priest and their commercial peak, reaching number 17 on the Billboard 200 and eventually selling over five million copies worldwide. The album refined the accessible approach of British Steel with stronger songs, tighter production and some of the most memorable riffs in the band's catalogue.

You've Got Another Thing Comin' became the band's biggest hit, its driving riff and defiant chorus propelling it into heavy rotation on MTV and rock radio. Electric Eye opens with a futuristic synth intro before launching into one of Tipton and Downing's finest riffs. Screaming for Vengeance is an epic that builds from a moody intro to a full-throttle assault. (Take These) Chains showed a more melodic side, while Bloodstone and Riding on the Wind maintain the album's relentless momentum.
