10 Rock Music Bands With Two Incredible Guitarists

10. Judas Priest

Whilst you would never call them a '60s band, British heavy metal unit Judas Priest have been around in some form or other since 1969.

Formed in the city of Birmingham, the band have undergone several changes over the years. Still, two musicians have appeared on every single Priest studio release; bassist Ian Hill and guitarist Glenn Tipton. During the band's peak, Tipton was partnered up with fellow axeman K. K. Downing to create the group's signature sound.

Both men were too talented to be kept out of the spotlight, so they took it in turns to play solo parts on Priest songs. This trading technique set the band apart from the other acts at the time, who would usually only have one performer take the lead.

Without either man's technical prowess, the band wouldn't be the juggernaut it is today. When Downing left in 2011, he took a little piece of Judas Priest's soul with him. Not that a leather-clad metal band had much soul to begin with.
