Info:
Judas Priest are an English heavy metal band formed in Birmingham, England in 1969.Known for twin lead guitars, a wide operatic vocal style, and for introducing the S&M leather-and-studs look into heavy metal, they have sold over 50 million albums worldwide.The band is widely recognised as one of the finest and most original heavy metal bands of all time, with many artists within the genre having cited them as a major influence.MTV ranked them the second "Greatest Metal Band" of all time.Despite an innovative and pioneering body of work in the late 1970s, the band struggled with indifferently-produced records, repeated changes at the drummer position, and a lack of major commercial success or attention until 1980 when they adopted a more simplified sound on the album British Steel, which helped shoot them to rock superstar status. In 1989, they were named as defendants in an unsuccessful lawsuit alleging that subliminal messages on their albums had caused the suicide attempts of two young men.The band's membership has seen much turnover, including a revolving cast of drummers in the 1970s, and the temporary departure of singer Rob Halford in the early 1990s. The current line-up consists of lead vocalist Rob Halford, guitarists Glenn Tipton and Richie Faulkner, bassist Ian Hill, and drummer Scott Travis. The band's best-selling album is 1982's Screaming for Vengeance featuring their most commercially successful line-up, featuring Halford, Tipton, Hill, K. K. Downing (guitar), and Dave Holland (drums).They were a major influence on multiple genres of metal, including but not limited to power metal and thrash metal.Their influence, while mainly Rob Halford's operatic vocal style (widely considered as one of the most unique vocalists in the genre) and the twin guitar sound of K.K. Downing and Glenn Tipton, has been adopted by many bands. Their image of leather, spikes, and other taboo articles of clothing were widely influential during the glam metal era of the 1980s.Their 1980 album, British Steel, has been referred to as the "record that, more than any other, codified what we mean by "heavy metal".Despite a decline in exposure during the mid 1990s, the band has once again seen a resurgence, including worldwide tours, being inaugural inductees into the VH1 Rock Honors in 2005, receiving a Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance in 2010, and their songs featured in video games such as Guitar Hero and the Rock Band series.Redeemer of Souls is the upcoming seventeenth studio album by heavy metal band Judas Priest, set to be released on 14 July 2014. It is their first album in 6 years (their previous album being 2008's Nostradamus) and also their first without founding guitarist K.K. Downing, who left the band in 2011 and was replaced by new guitarist Richie Faulkner.On 27 January 2011, it was announced that Judas Priest was in the process of writing new material for what was thought to be the group's final album due to their previously announced farewell tour entitled the Epitaph World Tour, but the band clarified that the Epitaph tour was "by no means the end of the band".Speaking at a press conference in Los Angeles on May, 26, of the new material Glenn Tipton said: "It's quite a mixed bag. Really, there's more sentiment on this album. In a way, I suppose, it's also our farewell album, although it might not be our last one. There are some anthems on there, which pay tribute to our fans"Guitarist Glenn Tipton said that fans should not expect wild experimentation. "Sometimes in the past we may have come under fire for being too adventurous musically – so we have listened," he said. "From start to finish, 'Redeemer of Souls' is 18 songs of pure classic PRIEST metal."When asked why the bonus tracks are only included in the deluxe edition of the album and not in the standard release, Tipton explains:"They are all great songs," he says. "The reason they are not on the album is because the 13 that we chose are very consistent with what we wanted to do, which was release an undisputable heavy metal album. The others, they are not lightweight by any chance, but they've got a different feel, a different texture."So it's not a case of trying to rip the kids off and trying to get more money for an extra album, it's just a case of, these five tracks seem to deserve to go on their own CD, and that's what we did."
Album:
30 years since its release, Judas Priest reissue their 10th studio album Turbo in two stunning formats. This album is an essential part of the Judas Priest catalogue with 'Turbo Lover' being one of the most requested tracks for the band to perform live. Turbo 30 comes in a three CD package with the album fully remastered as well as the two CD live concert recorded in Kansas City during the band s FUEL FOR LIFE World Tour. Originally recorded with the band's long term producer Tom Allom, this album marked a distinctive change in the band's sound by the use of synthesized guitars but still keeping their classic Heavy Metal style that Judas Priest were synonymous with.Out of all the 30th other priests anniversary releases this is the best one.Turbo will always be an underrated priest release.The turbo release sounds great,but the true gem here is the 2 live CDs included.These discs are heads and shoulders better than the priest live release from this tour.The songs sound heavier and its priest at full volume here.This is a must buy priest release,still has fuel in the tank 30 years later.
