British Steel is the sixth studio album by Judas Priest, released in 1980. It is generally considered to be their breakthrough album, and is certainly the most popular outside the hardcore Priest fan-base. It includes fan favourites and hits such as "Breaking The Law", "Living After Midnight" and "You Don't Have To Be Old To Be Wise". The band are often called "Metal Gods" by fans, in reference to their song from this album. Even though said song was about giant robots, the title for many fans reflects the band's genre and how they are revered.It is also their first album with drummer Dave Holland, who would turn out to be their first long-term drummer, lasting from 1979 to 1989.An episode about the creative process behind this album was featured in the documentary TV series Classic Albums. | |

Patriotic Fervor | |
British Steel (Music) / int_23be181a | comment |
Patriotic Fervor: "Red, White And Blue", a song they recorded but never released except on a remastered version of this album. (Ingeniously, although the song refers to Britain's Union Jack, it could also represent the flag of the United States of America, France, Cuba, or various other countries.) Slightly subverted in that the band's comments in the liner notes pointed out that it was slightly tongue-in-cheek. | |

Audience Participation Song | |
British Steel (Music) / int_5fe1360d | comment |
Audience Participation Song: "Breaking The Law" is a song in which Halford has the audience sing the chorus for him. Often, "Breaking The Law" is sung ENTIRELY by the public. Case in point, this video. Several tracks, including "United" and "Red White And Blue" were written with this purpose in mind. | |
