Hmmm....Rob's memory might be a bit faulty but it depends on your definition of "metal". If you are going to classify everything considered rock and roll in the 70's as metal, then for a while, yes people turned their attention to disco.
But by the time Judas Priest really took off (1982), disco was LONG gone, in United States anyway.

Heavy Metal music and Rock N' Roll music killed themselves. They were not all inclusive. Just white kids going to rock concerts. Disco went on vacation to tour the entire Earth, and created the super club craze.!!That is now taking over the entire Earth.! Don't get me wrong, Rock N' Roll is not totally dead yet.?!
