Judas Priest's Firepower has pretty much become part of my top 5 favourite JP albums.

Now for me the 5 favourites are
- Screaming for Vengeance
- Painkiller
- Point of Entry
- Firepower
- Angel of Retribution

Did anyone ever hear any word on Dave Holland's cause of death?
From the sounds of it no cause revealed and he's now cremated so we may never know.


Firepower has now become my number 1 album of 2018. Enough spins has really showcased how damn superb this album is.

Yeah, it's a hell of an album. I'm very happy with it.


And I saw that about his cremation right away after the announcement was made that he had passed. Seems a bit odd to me, but maybe it's for the best to not know.

There was a lot of negative reactions when his old bandmates and others paid tribute to him, after his death, due to his 2004 rape sentence. Perhaps his family decided to keep a low profile concerning his death after that.

Saw that this got published by Kerrang a few days ago.

"The 10 Best Judas Priest Albums"

Interesting list. I'll run off how they listed them, in THEIR order.
If you are interested in their reasoning, click the link above.

Top 10 (according to Kerrang)
10) Turbo (1986)
9) Angel of Retribution (2005)
8) Sad Wings of Destiny (1976)
7) Firepower (2018)
6) Killing Machine (1978)
5) Sin After Sin (1977)
4) Screaming For Vengeance (1982)
3) Painkiller (1990)
2) British Steel (1980)
1) Defenders of the Faith (1984)

All JP fans will definitely have different looking lists, but I found it interesting.

Chat it up boys and girls, let's hear what you think
