In support of their new album Invincible Shield, Judas Priest kicked off their North American tour last night (April 18) in Wallingford, Ct. with special guest Sabaton. The Metal Gods took the stage at the Oakdale Theatre and ripped through an 18-song set that heavily focused on the new record, British Steel and Screaming for Vengeance. Honoring a sizable chunk of the back catalog, Judas Priest played one song off six other albums and two from 1978’s Killing Machine (known to some as Hell Bent for Leather). The set mostly mirrored what most fans in Europe already saw the last few weeks, with s...

Here is the most played song live off every Judas Priest album. The metal legends’ catalog stands at 19 studio albums, the latest being Invicible Shield. Impressively, the album arrives 50 years apart from Judas Priest’s 1974 debut, Rocka Rolla. More impressively, it is an obvious standout, even when stacked up against the long venerated classics. As a heavy metal institution, there are so many all-time songs that feel like necessary inclusions in any Priest set. And while that may be true, the band has dug deep into their past in the Richie Faulkner era, recognizing so many deep cuts and hidd...

The bassist’s selection came in the midst of a conversation on the Judas Priest setlist, with the musician talking about songs that he loves to play liv...

Judas Priest now own the distinction as being the very first heavy metal band to release studio albums 50 years apart. The achievement is marked by the release of Invincible Shield, the band’s 19th studio album and successor to 2018’s Firepower. Within its 11 new songs (and three absolutely killer bonus tracks), Judas Priest demonstrate a breadth of musicality, with material ranging from adrenalized Painkiller-esque molten metal to bluesy emotion to anthemic rock ‘n’ roll. Invincible Shield calls to mind familiar elements from across the band’s half-century history, while sounding convincingly...

Judas Priest once recorded a trio of tracks with pop songwriters and producers Stock Aitken Waterman, and Rob Halford says he’d love to see those songs leaked even though the band initially decided to shelve them. In speaking with NME, Halford recalled the ’80s-era session with the songwriting and production trio, revealing his desire to see the songs eventually see the light of day. The songwriting and production trio were definitely on a hot streak in the ’80s, having yielded such hit singles as Dead or Alive’s “You Spin Me Round (Like a Record),” Rick Astley’s “Never Gonna Give You Up,” Kyl...
