Released in 1978, Killing Machine (known as Hell Bent for Leather in the U.S.) captures Judas Priest sharpening their sound into lean, hard-hitting heavy metal. Featuring anthems like “Hell Bent for Leather” and “Delivering the Goods,” the album blends aggressive riffs with a slicker, more accessible edge—laying the groundwork for the band's 1980s dominance.
