Had Judas Priest released just this one album, it would still go down in history. Full-blown metallic sound, awesome solos, great lyrics, and god-like vocals: this album has it all. Released in 1980, 'British Steel' opened the era of British Metal as we know it (and American metal consequently). It climbed high in the UK charts, and three tracks were made into singles, all of which became promotional videos and received wide radio play, which continues to this day. Priest's performance at the first ever Donington "Monsters of Rock" Festival cemented their position as the Metal Gods.

The welding of 'British Steel' is told in this documentary in the band's own words, and by their once long-term producer Tom Allom. Featuring archive footage, interviews and rare live performances, plus all of 'British Steel's finest songs, including "Living After Midnight", "Breaking the Law", "Metal Gods", "The Rage", "United" and "Grinder", this is a compelling, witty and exhilarating look at the making of one of heavy metal's most artful creations.

Watch, listen and kneel to the Metal Gods!
