Ram It Down
Judas Priest
Sessions for this record began during the writing phase of a previous double-album project. The band incorporated leftover material, blending it with a harsher approach to satisfy their existing audience.
The production features the polished, high-tech aesthetic common to metal in the late eighties. It shows the group navigating a shift away from synthesizer-heavy experimentation. They moved toward a sharper and more muscular style that would influence their later output.
