Painkiller

Painkiller is the twelfth studio album by English heavy metal band Judas Priest, released on 17 September 1990 in Europe and on and 18 September in the United States. The album was released following the band's highly publicised 1990 subliminal messages trial earlier that year, in which frontman Rob Halford and the band were cleared of civil charges and found not liable for the attempted suicides of two young men in December 1985 relating to the band's music.
