Judas Priest for me. I totally respect Iron Maiden and revere them as legends but at the end of the day I will go with Halford and company.

Iron Maiden
I don't think Judas Priest's music has aged well. It was extreme metal for its day that sounds pretty tame now. With Iron Maiden, the playing is still damn impressive. Not really a fan of either though.

Maiden

Both emphasized quantity over quality by releasing a new album each year (sometimes with too many filler songs) but Maiden has by far more great albums.

My favorite Priest album is Screaming for Vengeance, but that doesn't even come close to touching any one of Killers, Number of the Beast, Piece of Mind, and Seventh Son.

Maiden, seen them both in concert and both were excellent. Maiden has a better body of work and just better music. Priest has a couple of killer songs while Maiden has dozens.

Maiden.

Even though they're a little old for my tastes, they're both great bands.

Bolt Thrower and Carcass are my 2 fav british Metal bands. There aren't many bands out there that can write better riffs than Bolt Thrower. Those guys are death metal GOATs.
