Details Announced For New Judas Priest “Hits” Collection

By: Philip Sayblack

A new collection of some of Judas Priest’s most well-known songs is coming.
The Best of Judas Priest is scheduled for release June 19 via the band’s label home, Sony Music. The announcement was made Wednesday via a news release. According to the document, the collection (which will be the band’s 14th “hits” collection) will feature 16 of Judas Priest’s most well-known and beloved singles. Additionally, it will be released separately on CD and vinyl.
Among the songs featured in the 16-song collection are works, such as ‘Breaking The Law,’ ‘You’ve Got Another Thing Coming,’ ‘Electric Eye’ ‘Turbo Lover,’ and ‘Pain Killer.’ The collection reaches all the way back to the band’s 1974 album, Rocka Rolla (which was re-issued in late 2024) and all the way up to the band’s most recent studio recording, 2024’s Invincible Shield. Also included is music from albums, such as Sin After Sin, Defenders of the Faith, Firepower, Stained Class, and Killing Machine.
While not covering all of the band’s 19 total albums, it does represent a healthy cross section of the band’s catalog, spanning the band’s catalog. Only seven of the band’s albums are unrepresented here, making the collection still making it a good starting point for audiences who perhaps do not already own the band’s other hits collections.
The recording’s track listing is noted below:
