As one of their best known singles, ‘Breaking the Law’ confirmed Judas Priest as Britain’s first true heavy metal band. Its opening minor-key guitar riff, simple melody and air punching chorus produce such a mesmerizing combination that fans implore the song to be played at every Judas Priest gig. Featured repeatedly throughout, and especially towards the end, this song’s main riff has helped secure its reputation as a classic heavy metal song which has influenced hosts of other musicians.
