IoMP 48: What is Judas Priest's Heaviest Song?

In this new episode of our ongoing series, What is _____’s Heaviest Song?, Collin and Tom dive headfirst into the crushing legacy of Judas Priest—a band that helped lay the foundation for heavy metal as we know it. With a discography stretching back to the 1970s and packed with genre-defining riffs, the question isn’t if Priest has heavy songs—it’s which one takes the crown.

From blazing-fast speed metal to riff-driven anthems and even some underrated deep cuts, the duo debates the band’s most ferocious moments. But don’t expect the obvious choices—or maybe do? You’ll have to listen to find out which ten tracks made the cut and what surprises shook up the ranking.

Whether you're a die-hard fan or just metal-curious, this is a must-listen for anyone who’s ever cranked “Painkiller” at full volume.

Press play and join the conversation. Your neck might not forgive you later.
