Hidden track 11 is a reversed-spoken-word track with some ominous piano in the background, most likely referencing when Judas Priest were tried at court since they were accused of hiding subliminal messages in their music encouraging suicide and murder. When the track is reversed, one can hear the following message:

"Be nice to your mom and dad. Don't abuse. Don't blow your brains out on drugs-rock your brains out! By the way, you're ruining your needle."

Recording information:
