Then the review begins on the great album "Screaming for Vengeance" - an album from 1982 that got Judas Priest worldwide notoriety and a double platinum album.  We discuss how we came to love Judas Priest and their music, and talk about some of the concerts we saw as young rock fans!  We go through the best songs on the album and also show a video of Judas Priest playing the title track in concert in 1982.

Screaming for Vengeance is the eighth studio album by English heavy metal band Judas Priest, released on July 1, 1982 by Columbia Records.  Considered the band's commercial breakthrough in North America, it has been certified double platinum in the United States and platinum in Canada. Screaming for Vengeance spawned the hit "You've Got Another Thing Comin'", which became one of the band's signature songs and a perennial radio favorite.

Screaming for Vengeance was recorded at Ibiza Sound Studios, Ibiza, Spain (during this period, it was common for UK-based musicians to record in continental Europe for tax purposes).  Mixing and overdubs were done at Beejay Recording Studios in Orlando, Florida and Bayshore Recording Studios in Coconut Grove, Florida.

It showcased a harder, heavier sound than British Steel and saw the band revert back into straight heavy rock after the melodically styled Point of Entry.  The album also marks the first time a drummer played on more than two Judas Priest albums, with Dave Holland having also played on British Steel and Point of Entry.

The album's most commercially successful track, "You've Got Another Thing Comin'", was a last-minute addition. According to guitarist K. K. Downing, "We were quite happy with the album, but decided late on that we could add one more song. I know we had some of the parts, but we set about completing "Another Thing Comin'" during the mixing sessions at Bee Jay studios.  It came together quite quickly, and I seem to remember that we all had a good feeling about it, as it did sound like a good driving song and possibly a good radio track."  Rob Halford expressed surprise at the song's success, saying "that track was buried.  Normally the tracks you think are going to do stuff are at the front end of the release.  But our friends at Sony said, 'We're going to go for this song.' And we didn't really know what was going on.  But then the feedback was coming over: 'Hey, the record's buzzing in this town and that town', and it just took off."
