Have to tell you Darcy, last night I put on Nostredamus last night and I like it a little better than I did years ago. Great video as usual Darcy!

This was a fun video! I absolutely LOVE Priest but Maiden is still my favorite. Invincible Shield is remarkable! Pure heavy metal joy! These two bands have been such a constant in my life for so many years. For that , I’m thankful! 🤘🏼🍻

I would definitely say their most interesting post-reunion album is Dance of Death. Few very loud and proud songs kinda No More Lies or the title track, but the rest of the post-reunion discography is very boring indeed with few honorable exceptions

Wow awesome idea for a video! I gotta go with maiden,who I feel are more consistent. Nothing bad,everything very solid.Brave new world and dance of death absolutely amazing! The other 4 I all think are very good! As for priest demolition is not the greatest,Nostradamus is not as bad as people say but it’s also not the greatest! The other 4 are all good. Fire power and invincible shield are amazing!

i read in an interview with K.K. years ago part of his reason for "retiring" from Priest was the frustration he felt over the reception of Nostradomus. He felt in this age people don't sit with albums the way they did when he was growing up. He felt that now music is so easily obtainable that people listen to albums once or twice and then they're on to the next thing. He felt Nostradomus was a great album that wasn't given a chance because of current listening habits. He became very disillusioned by this. I'm guilty of this. There's always albums coming out all the time from bands I like that I get them then shelf them. Part of me is happy that a lot of bands I love have retired, or are near the end of their careers, because it's less albums I need to get.

Great video, Darcy! I enjoy Maiden from time to time, but I'm a far bigger Priest fan. I'd have this particular contest scored 4-2 in favor of Priest. I'd pick "Angel of Retribution" above "Dance of Death" by a landslide. I like "Dance of Death" quite a bit, but "Angel of Retribution" is in my top 7 Priest albums of all time. I definitely agree with you about "Brave New World" and "A Matter of Life and Death", though! Those two albums win their respective matchups. Rock on!

2 of my all time favorite bands...... but I gotta give the edge in this period to priest 1. Brave new world over Demolition 2. Angel of retribution over dance of death but close. 3. Matter of life over Nastrodomus 4. Redeemer of souls over the final frontier 5. Fire power over book of souls 6. Invincible shield over Senjetsu Great video my friend!!!

As one of the biggest Maiden fans in the world, I was very let down with Book of Souls, Senjutsu, and Mandrake Project.

I love both Bands.... for me, Firepower and Invincible Shield are way ahead, compared to Book of Souls and Senjitsu... in the end, a clear tie😂 first three Albums of the 2000s I prefer Maiden (at least a bit), but then Priest catches up, so I would go with Redeemer..., Firepower an Invincible Shield..

This is a tough one but Priest would probably be the winner overall for me. For one thing, I really think Angel of Retribution is a fantastic album. I love Brave New World and Dance of Death.

Good show Darcy, a fav topic for me. I have been a fan of Judas Priest since 1980 when I was 14 and I heard Living After Midnight and then went out and bought British Steel and Stained Class and they have been in my top two bands ever since. I discovered Iron Maiden with Number of the Beast in 1982 and they have been my other favourite band for the past 4 decades. Brave New World is probably Iron Maiden's best album outside of the classic 1980s records and the last few Judas priest albums have been their best since Painkiller. Having said all that, it leads me to conclude that Judas Priest have had the better run of records over the past 25 Years although I think Brave New World is probably the best of either bands records since 2000.

I have to agree that Judas Priest has made the heavy metal album of the year with "Invincible Shield." I know that "Nostredamus" gets a lot of criticism, but Halford's voice on that release was just amazing. It was like a heavy metal Pink Floyd concept that most Priest fans did not quite accept.

Maiden had a really good 4 album run that I really enjoyed. Priest's Angel of Retribution was a 1/2 great album for me. Nostradomus is a put it on and let it play in the back ground album. I don't dislike it, I just don't get excited for it. Redeemer is an okay album. Rob feels more restrained on this album. Firepower is good, and would be great be great for me if it was around 40-45 minutes. I just get tired of listening to albums that go on too long. Maiden is the winner for me

Maiden all the time !!!!

For me Maiden was done after Powerslave and Priest's problem is they think they're a speed metal band. Halford needs to grow up . Anyways that's my take.

Priest's highest chart position in the UK but won't be their biggest selling. In the Usa, 'invincible shield' landed on number 18 on billboard 200 this week. There are hardly any metal/rock albums anymore that scrape even into that 200!!!

I would have to go with maiden love both bands but always preferred maiden. Plus I think maidens albums since 2000 are mostly strong, love brave New world, dance of death has a few great songs but production is very muddy, amolad is a great album, book of souls not my favorite a lot of filler, love sinjitsu I think it's a great atmospheric album kind of like X factor which I always liked. Final frontier I don't like. I would definitely prefer redeemer of souls over Final frontier. And maybe firepower over book of souls so probably 4-2 to maiden.

Angel of retribution blows out the crummy d.o d. 😮

None of the Maiden albums from this period really impressed me all that much. I heard each of them when they came out and pretty much forgot about them, except for Wicker Man, which I still really like. I need to go back and listen to all of them again. As for Priest, I actually liked Nostradamus quite a bit, but they could have left off about half of it and it would have been much better. Firepower blew me away when I heard it, but for me, Invincible Shield is easily the best thing they've done since the 80s. Angel of Retribution and Demolition each have some good stuff, but not their best. I didn't care for Redeemer of Souls, but I think the production there was the problem. The whole album just sounds muted to me. It seems they just sucked the heaviness right out of all the songs on that one.

I’m not at the same place as you are with Senjutsu, but I will tell you I like more & more as time goes on! Thanks for sharing you’re ranking & thanks for watching 🤘 Take care ~ Darcy

Priest wins this easy. They're still a metal band that is enjoyable to listen to. Iron Maiden has sucked since the 90's. The last few Iron Maiden albums are incredibly boring, old man rock.

ACCEPT VS SAXON???

Good one! I’ll see what I can do 🤘

Iron Maiden writes long droning, boring songs, they were a different beast in the 80’s. Judas Priest writes metal songs and they are a better band. They got shorter songs. And proudly wave the metal flag. I prefer Judas Priest concerts over Iron Maiden concerts too.

It’s hard to beat 80’s Iron Maiden, a very strong 7 album run! I hope I see some Judas Priest Canadian dates announced soon, I’m going it’s just a matter of when lol. Thanks as always 🤘 Cheers William

@@darcysixstringsninelives3493lol...I actually just purchased ROS the other day, mainly for the Faulkner guitarwork. Much better than I figured (didn't care for some of the singles) and easily better than TFF. Keep up the good work!

In my opinion SAXON was better than both in those decades.

Can’t argue with you there, if you’ve watched me for more than 3 videos you know that I love Saxon! Thanks for watching 🤘 Cheers from Canada

Thanks for the ranking Ryan 🤘 “ Everything below here sucks and is tied for last” 😂 I’m still laughing, that’s awesome!!

Oh god. Priest every single album destroys Maiden post 2000. Ok well? Maybe not Nostradamus only because that bloated mess is exactly what Maiden has been doing since 2005. But at least Nostradamus has 3 ripping tracks. Haha

Gotta strongly disagree. Dance of Death imo was much weaker than even Nostradamus, but def weaker than Angel of Retribution. Firepower is the second weakest album that JP has released imo, next to rock a rolla, of course! Nice idea for a video though, bro! 👊🏼🤘🏼

@@darcysixstringsninelives3493 indeed & thank u!

I have not heard invisible shield yet. I didn’t listen to senjutsu fully yet so I can take those two out for now. The really good albums to me are two from each Brave new world which is top 5 iron maiden, redeemer of souls, the book of souls, firepower which compares to classic Judas Priest.
