“There would be no heavy metal without Judas Priest” – Scott “Not” Ian (Anthrax)
The godfathers of Heavy Metal are set to release the second
single from their hugely acclaimed album “Angel of Retribution”.
The “Angel of Retribution” album saw the reforming of the definitive Judas
Priest line-up after a more than 14 year break. The album sees the seminal band
back to their very best – the classic line-up of Rob Halford (vocals), Glenn
Tipton (guitar), K.K. Downing (guitar), Ian Hill (bass) and Scott Travis (drums).
With sales of over half a million copies worldwide and counting, “Angel Of
Retribution” is an album to sit alongside classics such as “Stained Class”,
“British Steel” and “Screaming For Vengeance”.
“Worth Fighting For” sees the legendary twin guitar work of Glenn Tipton and K.K.
Downing perfectly complimenting a trademark Rob Halford vocal. The single is
classic mid tempo Priest – as vital and influential as the band has ever been.
A vital part of rock history, Judas Priest have spent thirty years writing
classic songs and putting on spectacular live shows. During this period the band
has sold in excess of 30 million albums. “Angel of Retribution” is the latest
chapter in a hugely impressive legacy and has seen the band delighting old and
winning a whole army of new fans alike.
Judas Priest are currently in the midst of a world tour across Europe, Japan and
the USA.
“Worth Fighting For” is released through Sony on the 16th May 2005. “Angel Of
Retribution” is out now…
