Judas Priest – The Artist

Judas Priest are an English heavy metal band formed in West Bromwich, England in 1969. They have sold over 50 million copies of their albums, and are frequently ranked as one of the greatest metal bands of all time. Despite an innovative and pioneering body of work in the latter half of the 1970s, the band had struggled with indifferent record production and a lack of major commercial success or attention until 1980, when they adopted a more simplified sound on the album British Steel. The line up has seen many changes but during the production and release of this album they were: Rob Halford – vocals, K. K. Downing – guitars, Glenn Tipton – guitars, Ian Hill – bass guitar and Dave Holland – drums.

Take On The World – The Song

‘Take On The World’  is a song by British heavy metal band Judas Priest, originally released on their 1978 album Killing Machine, and released as a single in January 1979. It was the first Judas Priest single to chart in the UK top 40, reaching number 14. The song was an attempt at producing a stadium shout along tune in the mould of Queen’s “We Will Rock You”. It was also covered by new wave band The Human League on their 1980 tour. According to guitarist K.K. Downing, the song was used by Wolverhampton Wanderers football club as their club song. As a single it sold around 400,000 copies.
