ALBUM

Point of Entry (1981)

Point of Entry came between two of their biggest records and took a somewhat more straightforward, melodic approach. It is often seen as a transitional album, a little less heavy than what surrounded it but still a solid entry in their run of early 1980s releases.

Artist

Judas Priest

Judas Priest are a heavy metal band from Birmingham, England, formed in 1969. They helped define the sound and look of heavy metal through the late 1970s and 1980s, building a catalog of hard-riffing records with Rob Halford's wide-ranging vocals at the center. Over more than five decades they have gone through lineup changes and stylistic shifts but remained one of the most influential acts in the genre.
