Warp ten from beginning to end, not a dull moment ANYWHERE in this CD!! Excellent for long road trips. A permanent must-have in any metal fan's car CD changer. Starting with the hard driving classic Breaking the Law, the high priests of metal actually rev it UP a notch to the manic Screaming For Vengence. In Metal Gods we find a sort-of postmodern, "Terminator" story concept. Hell Bent For Leather, another classic!! Let us Prey (clever pun) and Burnin up are somewhat lesser known but still high power tunes. Some Heads are Gonna Roll, an 80's era commentary on the dangers of political intrigue and nuclear weapons, no less relevent for the modern day. Green Manalishi, a strait up rocker. Love Bites, ouch!! But you know you want it!! And for the grand finale, the rockin' classic Living After Midnight. It just don't get no better than this!!

I purchased this compilation about a year ago, and every song is good, but they do miss some good material, so if a group has a lot of great material, some songs will obviously be omitted. Some customers would like maybe the songs "Freewheel Burning", "(Take These)chains", "Jawbreaker", "Rock Hard Ride Free", "Electric Eye", "You've Got Another Thing Comin'", and "Victim Of Changes", to be included, but no such luck. I hate the song "Breaking The Law", because it's so repetitive and juvenile, so I could definitely do without it. I've got all the albums with those tunes, so I think I might get rid of it on Amazon. If you are a casual fan, or don't get into too much Priest, this might be for you, but it could be that you might think that this is the wrong combination of songs, and that too would be valid also.

I like to listen to "Breaking the Law" and then going out a beating people up.
