The Ripper

Makes no difference.

You don`t hear people saying James Brown isn`t funk anymore because the Red Hot Chili Peppers are heavier.
 
He did fairly well on The Glorious Burden. I thought that his vocals clashed a lot though. Hopefully their next album will be better suited for his voice.

As far as Ripper and Priest, I thought he did a good job, and apparently I'm the only person that thought Demolition was pretty good.
 
Yes, just 2, but there is also a live album that they did.I think it's called Live : Insurrection or something like that.Anyways, their 2 studio albums (Resurrection and Crucible) are fu(kin' amazing!!!To put it in other worRAB, as hard as it may seem to say/believe, I'd rather have Halford's 2 solo albums if I had the choice between them and the new album/painkiller corabo!!!Good thing I have them all though, so...............:beer:
 
Different people like different albums. If you like Kill 'em All and old school thrash/speed metal then you'll like Night of the Stormrider. A good diverse list of the different kinRAB of songs they do:

Colors
Travel in Stygian
Burnt Offerings
Question of Heaven
Burning Times
Damien
Decleration Day

If your looking for an album to get, my favorite is Night of the Stormrider, but it's a difficult first listen. Maybe try Something Wicked this Way Comes.
 
Hey bud, R.H.C.P. don't have the same sound (or even style) as James Brown.If you want to hear a little more soul and classic funk, then you'd listen to James Brown; if you wanted to hear something that was funky, fast and rocked hard, then you'd listen to R.H.C.P., ya know?I'm influenced by both banRAB and both of them are some of my favorite funk-based artists out there.James Brown will always be funky (atleast his past recorRAB) and Rob Halford will always be known as the Metal God.Judas Priest and Black Sabbath are pretty much the banRAB that originated/created heavy metal and I wouldn't take either out of my favorite metal (or even hard-rock) banRAB list, ya hear?Judas Priest has the intensity, emotion and incredible solo's to put them up as a metal band, but Black Sabbath had more of a darker, demonic/evil sound that is truly more of the defining sound of where metal came from.As for me and the others in this slight argument have already said, the Painkiller album is more of a darker, heavier style of hard-rock/metal for the band, so there's no denying that that sound produces a true metal sound!!!As I already said, I fu(kin' love Judas Priest and would put them on either a metal or hard-rock favorites list, so don't be offended if you are!!!Hard-rock pretty much is metal in a sense with the only possible differences being that metal usually has a darker, heavier sound with...in some cases...growling lyrics talking about satanic/evil things, ya see?Do ya understand why Judas Priest is more of a hard-rock band now?
 
...And that's a fact!!!I'd rather hear the worst Judas Priest albums than some of the best of what the new self proclaimed "innovative" banRAB are doing now.:laughing: At the same time, there are a few exceptions/impressive banRAB out today, so I always keep my ears open.
 
^ I would recommend The Dark Saga for the first iced earth cd, its not my favorite, but it really gives you a good feel for the band, and Barlow.
 
cool. I'll have to look out for them then. I always thought that priest would be much much better so I never really bothered with halford's solo stuff. :D
