Rob Halford and Ian Hill look back on judaspriest’s BritishSteel, 40 years later
KK Downing, Ian Hill, Rob Halford, Dave Holland and Glenn Tipton of Judas Priest posed in London in February 1980.
Halford then invokes lyrics from"Rapid Fire" and"Steeler" ."It's probably the most potent Priest album for addressing social issues ever," declares Halford.
While an unknown entity to people outside of England, British Steel was battling pushback from its beleaguered employees."At the time, it was the socialists flexing their muscles, and the whole company did eventually go under basically because of the industrial unrest," remarks bassist Ian Hill."It was rife back in those days. We all had friends and family members who lost their jobs over it. Some people quit their jobs. It wasn't a very happy time.
"I don't think any of it was done actually in the live room in the studio," says Hill."We got to go into the house. I think the vocals were done in the library, and we tried the drums in various different rooms. We had guitar rigs in the bathroom, and I think the bass was done in the recreation room at one point."
Further, the band and Allom created some curious effects for certain songs. There was the crashing of milk bottles for the mid-section of"Breaking The Law" and the swooshing sound of a billiard cue cutting through the air for the pulsing sound effects segueing from"Rapid Fire" into"Metal Gods," which incorporated the shaking of a cutlery tray for its stomping finale.
