Bio:

Kenneth Keith "K. K." Downing Jr. (born 27 October 1951) is an English musician. He is a co-founder and former guitarist of heavy metal band Judas Priest.You can’t keep a heavy metal legend down. Although it’s been nearly a decade since guitarist and songwriter K.K. Downing departed Judas Priest, the famous band he co-founded and played with for 40 years, he was never really going to retire. It was only a matter of time before he reclaimed the spotlight.K.K. has had metal coursing through his veins from the beginning, starting in the Midlands region of England where Judas Priest was born. He chronicled his life odyssey in his 2018 autobiography, and his passion for his chosen genre is well represented with his new band K.K.’s Priest and the thunderous debut album Sermons Of The Sinner.The album cover features a mysterious figure robed in a monk’s habit, whom Downing slyly states may or may not be him, holding a book of sermons. He says the “sinner” in the title refers to his famous solo in that classic song of the same name and also reflects his sense of alienation from the groundbreaking group that he helped create. “The whole concept is the fact that I continue proudly to be who I am and what I am and do what I do,” declares Downing. “It's been nearly 10 years. I'm back making music.”And his disciples are ready to receive his sermons. He’s brought a former bandmate along for the ride, and they have unleashed an album with a modern sound that hearkens back to what fans have always loved about Downing and his music and which still sounds fresh. “All of my life, people always wanted an album that we've made in the past,” muses Downing. “‘What's the new album like? Will it be anything like British Steel? Will it be anything like Sad Wings?’ People hoping you're going to make a record that you've already made. So in a way this record just sounds like something that has already been made or should have been be made. It does have a lot of things that are connected to the past. For example, ‘Brothers Of The Road’. If you take all the lyrics off and just listen to the music, maybe you could be listening to ‘You’ve Got Another Thing Comin’.”After years of quietly enjoying life away from the rigors of the road and intense studio recording, Downing emerged again on stage in August 2019. His former bandmates had been given the Heavy Metal Hall Of Fame award at the Wacken Open Air festival that summer, and HMHOF board member Steve Goldby wanted to give the guitarist his award at Bloodstock. From there, the conversation led to Downing performing a few songs with Ross The Boss. The performance electrified the crowd and reinvigorated Downing. In November of that year, he put on a show in Wolverhampton, UK with former Judas Priest singer Tim “Ripper” Owens, former drummer Les Binks, Megadeth bassist David Ellefson, and Hostile guitarist A.J. Mills. Downing had produced two albums for the latter band. Spanning Judas Priest’s catalog, this superb and successful show sent shockwaves throughout the metal world: K.K. was back and the fans were clearly hungry for more.Rather than simply rely on his past successes and go on the road performing classic Judas Priest songs, the renowned guitarist did what he has always done – make new music. And songs that fans would want to hear and sing along to in concert. Downing assembled Owens, Mills, former Voodoo Six bassist Tony Newton, and DeathRiders/Cage drummer Sean Elg to create Sermons Of The Sinner, an album that celebrates his classic metal roots and encourages us to cherish those iconic pioneers whom we still have with us. He jokes that KK’s Priest is “like a new old band. Or an old new band.”“The ultimate message is we've moved away from this music that we loved for so long and we're so dedicated to, and now we're in a situation where lots of people are actually passing away,” explains Downing. “We've lost a lot of great people – Dio, Lemmy, I could go on – and that's gonna be accelerated over the coming years. Basically, enjoy everything that's left of this brand of metal including from me. It's not going to last forever.”Downing spent four months writing and recording Sermons Of The Sinner and, along with new ideas, he even resurrected a few archived riffs from the ‘80s. (Can you pick them out?) After partnering with Explorer1 Music Group, the album was originally intended for release a year ago, but with the Covid pandemic curtailing everyone’s release and touring plans, Downing pulled back and spent two more months tweaking the album to how he wanted it. The extra time paid off.High speed album opener “Hellfire Thunderbolt” offers a fictitious take on how metal arrived before the masses were ready for it, so it gestated in the late ‘60s before exploding in the ‘70s and ‘80s. Rousing rockers like “Raise Your Fists” and “Wild And Free” revel in the passion and excess that metal fans embrace. The guitar interplay is intense and inspiring, and the band is firing on all cylinders.“The Return Of The Sentinel” is a bold choice to close the album. Not only is it a sequel to the classic track from Judas Priest’s 1984’s platinum-selling Defenders Of The Faith album, it’s a nine-minute epic that doesn’t play by the rules. The first half is stirring metal, and the latter half is somber and subdued, which reflects the tale of a being who, once a dispenser of justice and death, now faces his own mortality.Conversely, KK’s Priest is alive and vital. They have plans to tour later this year with some Ripper-era Judas Priest songs tossed into the mix, and Binks hopes to make appearances at shows. “Les was able to do the short set at the Steel Mill,” says Downing. “But he had a wrist injury after that and wasn’t able to do the album. Les wants to jump on the stage and a play a couple of songs, although he is not going to be able to play a full set. He will be our special guest.”Downing is hoping to reach as many headbangers as he can worldwide - from Europe to North and South America. Sermons Of The Sinner is a love letter to the music he helped create and evolve and to the devoted followers who have supported it. “I'm talking about the diehard fans that are not going anywhere,” says Downing. “They're not certainly going to jump on a different genre of music just because a lot of their heroes are unfortunately passing away. And that sentiment is in this album where we said in the title track, ‘time is running out for us, things may never be the same, but the sermons of the sinner center can help us rise again.’ Because you never know when the last gig is going to be the last gig, so to speak. I'm pretty optimistic. I'm working on material for the second album.”For K.K. Downing, Sermons of the Sinner is not just a statement of intent. It is a statement of being. His heavy metal ride is far from over.

Album:

10 new songs available on CD disc, single disc vinyl with bonus CD album, digital download and via streaming - is a musical statement that KK Downing's heavy metal ride is far from over after his extended hiatus. “The whole concept is the fact that I continue proudly to be who I am and what I am and do what I do,” declares KK. “It's been nearly 10 years. I'm back making music.” KK’s Priest includes singer Tim “Ripper” Owens, guitarist A.J. Mills, bassist Tony Newton, drummer Sean Elg and guitarist KK Downing.They have unleashed an album with a modern sound that hearkens back to what fans have always loved about KK Downing and his music and which still sounds fresh including the high-speed album opener “Hellfire Thunderbolt”, “Raise Your Fists” and “Wild And Free” which revel in the passion and excess that metal fans embrace. The guitar interplay is intense and inspiring, and the band is firing on all cylinders.

His heavy metal ride is far from over.

Album:

On the blazing heels of the highly-lauded 2021 debut album, "Sermons Of The Sinner" - which debuted within the Top 20 on charts in the United States, the UK, Germany, Sweden, Finland and more - KK's Priest returns to sin again with a savage sophomore offering: "The Sinner Rides Again", out via Napalm Records. The powerhouse heavy metal amalgamation of iconic Judas Priest alumni and Grammy Award winning/nominated musicians K.K. Downing (guitar) and Tim Owens (vocals), along with A.J. Mills (guitar), Tony Newton (bass) and Sean Elg (drums), double down on the ripping melodic force of their debut - which Metal Hammer UK dubbed 'hugely enjoyable' and Metal Injection cited as boasting 'catchy hooks and plenty of guitar wizardry'. "The Sinner Rides Again" boasts nine tracks of pure hellfire, produced and written by Downing and mixed/mastered by Jacob Hansen.After stepping out of the Judas Priest spotlight, the return of K.K. Downing was uncertain. Nearly ten years after its onset, the genre-defining guitar icon returned from his hiatus with proof that he was nowhere ready to cease writing classic metal songs or to put away his famous Flying V guitars - taking part in acclaimed international comeback performances (including with his former Judas Priest bandmates when they were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame (November 2022) that would act as harbingers of the formation of KK's Priest. Downing was recently quoted saying: "We've lost a lot of great people - Dio, Lemmy, for example - but this amazing and unique style of music must be preserved for as long as possible and I feel it within me to continue to play my role, as I always have, and to defend this metal genre, which we all know and love." "The Sinner Rides Again" is a testament to this call for the classics while speeding full force into the future, delivered by some of heavy metal's most essential performers.A haunting introduction of dual guitars carries the listener into the thundering "Sons Of The Sentinel", winding across a wasteland of burning riffs and a deftly dynamic guitar solo to kick off the record with relentless energy! The undeniably catchy anthem "Strike Of The Viper" proves itself as one of the album's most unforgettable tracks, before "Reap The Whirlwind" crashes in with a classic heavy metal power thrust of soaring leads, hair-raising harmonics and earworm vocal hooks. "One More Shot At Glory" raises its sword high, instantaneously calling for battle with its opening riff and beckoning verses. Heroic chants and unrelenting double bass set the stage for a galloping midsection as a spine-tingling guitar solo commands the song. Striding "Hymn 66" commands with sultry, slow and low metallic punches and a bluesy gait, while massive title track "The Sinner Rides Again" straddles balladic passages and sinister, head-bobbing choruses. Beginning with ominous bells, "Keeper Of The Graves" rounds the final bend of the album with roaring cascades and a dynamic performance from Owens, before charging "Pledge Your Souls" and rollercoaster closer epic "Wash Away Your Sins" rise as the final embers of a certified burner - proving itself as a must-hear metal album of the year by the greatest to ever perform the genre!

Line-Up:

Tim "Ripper" Owens - vocals
K.K. Downing - guitar (Judas Priest)
A.J. Mills - guitar
Tony Newton - bass (Voodoo Six)
Sean Elg - drums

Album:

We are featuring in exclusive on our blog “Return Of The Sinner: European Tour 2024“, the live recording of KK’s PRIEST captured during last year “Return Of The Sinner Tour”.Led by former Judas Priest guitarist K.K. Downing and singer Tim “Ripper” Owens, KK’s PRIEST did this headlining U.S. tour with support acts L.A. Guns and Burning Witches, and they also did an expanded Europe summer tour covering the continent, including live performances at major European festivals.If you had a doubt about KK’s PRIEST powers in their 2 studio albums to date, you better listen “Return Of The Sinner: Live!”. This is where this band belongs: live stage. They simply kills! Sound quality of the recording is stupendous, clear and powerful.To say it has been an epic couple of years for KK’s Priest is an understatement. The Sinner Rides Again was a superbly savage sophomore album, and following 2023’s triumph at Bloodstock and an explosive UK Tour, the band were thrilled to perform their first North American tour.”The Return Of The Sinner Tour” U.S. leg covered 14 shows, thrilling an enthusiastic crowd of Metalheads.The band rips into ”Hellfire Thunderbolt”, a perfect opening song, showcasing each band member, followed by “Strike Of The Viper”. They move into their original song, ”One More Shot At Glory”, a nod to Judas Priest’s One Shot At Glory from the Painkiller album. K.K. Downing and A.J. Mills share a synchronised, then harmonised guitar solo in the middle of the song.“What’s my name,” the vocalist asks the crowd repeatedly, and they chant “RIPPER!” back. Going into the first Judas Priest tune of the night, it’s ”The Ripper”, the song which inspired Tim ‘Ripper” Owens’ name. The duelling guitars have become a common theme, as this song opened with said harmonising guitar part. There is nothing more Heavy Metal than back-to-back Flying V’s.Going back to KK’s Priest original music for a moment with ”Reap The Whirlwind”, the group shows off their old-school Heavy Metal riffage with an originality that holds its own when played in a set alongside Judas Priest material.After the classic ”Breaking The Law”, for the encore the band perform ”Victim Of Changes”, and properly close with anthem “Raise Your Fists”.K.K. Downing has created such a powerhouse of a band, with a killer bassist Tony Newton (who has produced Iron Maiden), drummer Sean Elg, face-melting shredder A.J. Mills and Tim “Ripper” Owens, a vocalist who is nothing short of mind-blowing.As far as classic Heavy Metal is concerned, KK’s Priest is one of the best newly established bands coming on the scene right now, and their live show is certainly not to be missed.

K.K. Downing - guitar (Judas Priest)
