Unleashed in the east? More like Unleashed in the Studio, AMIRITE??

Wendi's disappeared into her roquillage/cocquillage grotto to avoid the copious overloads.

It is over.
That started promisingly but quickly became so monotonously relentless that it became a trial to listen to.
Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it.

I shall give it 2 stars.

Well, that was (unlike the Maiden album), a no-nonsense and all-round bona fide Hevvi Mettle recording.
Apart from the first few bars (inevitably gripping to the dormant adolescent Jungian "Collective Unconscious") I don't and didn't like it/hate it.
However, by the age of about 3 I was too mature and sophisticated to really enjoy this rubbish.
Despite its dumb charms.
Still, and I say this again and again, it was/is what it was/is.
From a subjective viewpoint: dull, noisy and uninteresting.
Objective: An important cultural landmark that, as an English person, I take a sort of Jungian "Collective Unconscious" pride in without actualy deserving any part of it.
In summary, it was bloody awful, but it needed to exist.
Like wasps.
And tapeworms.
etc

That's why it's a better Judas Priest album, all power, no messing about with 'da bluz' or Freak outs.
I'm with John Walters, the producer of the John Peel show, who said about the Friday Rock show which was being made just down the corridor 'they were listening for 20 years to the same bloody song'.
But you can't dis. the innovators, like Priest. Like Sabbath, Napalm Death and Venom. It might sound about as challenging as a one piece jigsaw now, at the time it was new and exciting.
Scrapes a ★★★★ from me.

Not 'The Priest' surely.
Don't alienate the fanslike Freddy, Rob.
Well, they do go from Turbo lover to Painkiller.
