Yeah, you Americans and Europeans always rub that fact in my face. :upset:

So, I think that Painkiller or Hard As Iron have the best intros of any Judas Priest song. Thoughts?

metal meltdown

or ramit down are the greatest intros in my book

I dunno, for me Ram It Down's intro pales compared to the rest of the song, including the solo.

yea agreed but metal meltdown has a crazy intro and is a kickass song after it

If The Hellion could be counted as an intro to Electric Eye then I'd choose that. But another vote for Metal Meltdown with it's crazy intro solo.

Yes, Metal Meltdown is also good. And on Living After Midnight, which I got as a Christmas present ages ago, Electric Eye and The Hellion are the same song.

Haha, they really should have just had them lodged together from the start. Anyway, great intro it is. Builds up a nice atmosphere.

You aren't the only one that lives here in Australia either. What's worse for me is that I'm English and so many amazing bands are popping up playing in England at the moment. It's so annoying!

Hehe, what part of Aus are you from?

Good old 4 seasons in a day Melbourne.

Hehe, I'm at the opposite end of the country. Good old hot and steamy Cairns.

My mate goes to Monash in Melbourne. You are also lucky, because if Priest tours down under, Melbourne is a guaranteed spot.

yea they palyed in texas they rocked

/me is truely jealous of Brum.

:emo:

Make sure you tell us what it was like.

It ruled :cool:

The Scorpions were spot on with getting their sound right - you could hear everything.

Whereas with Priest they just whacked it all up to full and Rob's vocals got lost in the mix...you could kinda hear him.

Priest setlist (well...what I can remember that they played)

The Hellion/Electric Eye
Metal Gods
Judas Rising
Breaking the Law
Deal with the Devil
Diamonds and Rust (acoustic version off the dvd from the new album)
Revolution
Turbo Lover
Painkiller
Hellrider
I'm A Rocker
Hell Bent For Leather
You've Got Another Thing Coming
Living After Midnight

They played some more, but it was a great set. The new songs sounded amazing.

Halford had a crazy effect on his vocals, every time he screamed it was distorted and echoed alot.

Amazing.

lucky bastard

Cheers :)

nice

I'm still waiting for the US dates.

They played the US last year...

[QUOTE=ToRidTheDisease]Can anyone send me AOR? Mine won't play in any CD players.[/QUOTE]

Bumped for hope someone will help a fellow Priest fan.

Why won't it play in any cd players....?

I have the dual disc one, and nothing will play it other than my stereo.

Hmm...crazy.

[QUOTE=Moose Inspector]I'm a HUGE priest fan. Favourite album: Sad Wings of Destiny, Favourite dong: Victim of changes

Just to let you all know, 30 second samples from each track of the new album can be found [URL=http://www.sonymusic.co.uk/uk/disc.php?id=9014760&lang=eng&cat=519300]here[/URL]!

They all ****ing rock![/QUOTE]




That "dong" typo is classic with the context of the band. Anyway, I love JP and I dearly hope they play here in San Francisco soon. BTW, what's up with AOR not playing in CD players? If it's this bad, something needs to be done to rectify the situation. Also, of those who've heard the album what do you think?

Did Judas Priest get their name from the Bob Dylan song "The Ballad of Frankie Lee and Judas Priest?

my fav album would have to be screamin for vengeance...awesome

Judas Priest did get their name from the Bob Dylan song, and the reason some Angel Of Retribution CDs don't play in anything but certain stereos, is because it is a dual-disc. However, I got the seperate discs, so I can play the songs on my computer if I wish. :)

Bump. US tour dates announced. Who's going?

June 23 for me.

I saw them last night in Cardiff. It was awesome. The Scorpians were really good too but just couldnt compare to priest.

From what i've heard of Priest, I think they're amazing.

They filmed the show that you went to Lord Brummington. Rob said they may be releasing it on DVD

[QUOTE=Rob Halford]We also filmed the show,perhaps for a DVD release[/QUOTE]
