Today in Priest History:

Defenders of the Faith is released on January 4th, 1984! The album charted at

#11

on the UK Albums Chart and at

#18

on the Billboard 200 in the US, where it remained on the charts for a whopping 38 weeks. Its highest charting position was on the Swedish Albums Chart, where it reached

#2

! The first single released from the album was Freewheel Burning in December of 1983, followed by Some Heads Are Gonna Roll in February of 1984. The last single released was Love Bites in April of ‘84. Both Freewheel Burning and Love Bites had a music video made for them, which you can see above!

The album was produced by Priest and by Tom Allom, who produced all of Priest’s 80s albums. As for the artwork of the album, Doug Johnson returned from his work on the Screaming for Vengeance cover and designed a similar creature for this album, this time known as the Metallian. As with Screaming for Vengeance, the back cover of the album contains a message:

“Rising from darkness where hell hath no mercy and the screams of vengeance echo on forever, only those who keep the faith shall escape the wrath of the Metallian... master of all metal.”

Additionally, on this album the Priest logo remains in the same style as it appeared on Screaming for Vengeance. This version of the logo is probably the most well known variation of the Judas Priest logo!

Additionally, of course, this album landed Priest in trouble with the infamous PMRC in 1985. With its suggestive lyrics, “Eat Me Alive” earned itself the

#3

spot on the PMRC’s Filthy Fifteen list, as it was deemed inappropriate for its lyrical content. Priest, of course, responded with “Parental Guidance” a year later on Turbo!

Henry VIII and his daughter Elizabeth I wearing their crowns with modern replicas 👑 the crowns are designed so that the frame fits over a cap that stops it moving once placed on the monarch's head. The replica of Henry's crown is currently on display at Hampton Court near London.

My idea of “defending the world from evil” has changed a lot. While I still enjoy the Superhero comic stories, I treasure reading the accounts of early Christians who defended the faith. Jesus warned that false teachers would appear. But He also proclaimed that He would build His church...

Judas Priest 

"Rock Hard Ride Free"

Get a grip on the action

Moving heaven and earth

Gotta get a reaction

Push for all that you're worth

No denying we're going against the grain

So defiant they'll never put us down

Rock Hard Ride Free

All day, all night

Rock Hard Ride Free

All your life

Tough as steel

Stop at nothing

Look at fate in the face

Don't take no for an answer

Grab the lead in the race

No denying we're going against the grain

So defiant they'll never put us down

Rock Hard Ride Free

All day, all night

Rock Hard Ride Free

All your life

Rock hard with a purpose

Got a mind that won't bend

Die hard resolution

That is true to the end

No denying we're going against the grain

So defiant they'll never put us down

Rock Hard Ride Free

All day, all night

Rock Hard Ride Free
