In my opinion Megadeth is a superior band to Metallica. I think Dave Mustaine is brilliant. What do you guys think? |

Hello Priest-heads!
This is the Reverend Donnie Black; host of the Rock n' Roll Breakfast Show in Western Canada. I had the pleasure of talking with Mr. Tipton last week with regards to Nostradamus and the Priest's upcoming Canadian and Metal Masters Tours. The interview airs Friday, July 18th at 1:30PM PST.
You can hear it live at: www.rocknrollbreakfast.com (or download it afterwards)
As a longtime Priest fan, it certainly was a thrill talking to one of my childhood heroes!
All hail thee mighty Priest,
Rev. DB

I'd like to thank you for your unbelievable performance.

| In Puerto Banus I used to drink with Glen at the 60's bar whilst the band played .This was back in the 80's when Dozy Beaky Mick & Tich owned the bar. I lived with the drummer & lead singer Mick. I was wondering if he remembers anything about that time & how we used to keep the club finacial at the bar. Not sure how this site works or if the band reply to messages but thought I would give it a go being as I have just seen that they are coming to Australia where I now live. Cheers, Shirley |

Hello from Montreal!!!
It is a pleasure to join you on this board. I've been a Priest fan since 2000. I've been loving them since then. At that time Ripper was still the frontman, but I was following Rob Halford's solo career. That is how I got into Priest.
I just bought the new record Nostradamus and I can't stop listening to it. It is different than previous Priest records but it is awesome musically speaking.
I am sure I will enjoy my stay here and I can't wait to speak to you...
Cheers!!! The Priest is back!!!

| Hello to all! I have been a Priest fan since i was six years old. The first song that stuck in my head was "Screaming for Vengeance". Since then the Priest has been my all time favorite band. Since I am a musician, they inspire me to make metal. When i first heard Scott Travis on the "Painkiller" album, his drumming blew me away. I think his strongest work is on the "Jugulator" album. Since I am a drummer Scott is my main influence. "Nostradamus" is a fantastic album. I was excited to finally listen to it when it was released. Well all you Priest fans, I will talk to you all soon. ROCK ON. THE PRIEST IS BACK!!!!!!! |

I've been a huge fan of the Priest since the late 1970s when I was about eight years old, when my big brother brought home "Unleashed in the East." The album blew me away in every way! Those incredible guitars and vocals!!
Now I'm 37, and love the Priest more than ever! My friends call me "a Priest man!"
It didn't occur to me to register on their website til now (duh!) but with the release of the mighty "Nostradamus," I think the time has come to talk Priest with like-minded folk!
Favourite album? Well, at the moment, it's "Nostradamus"! But otherwise I'd say my top three is "Screaming for Vengeance", "Sad Wings of Destiny" and the aforementioned "Unleashed in the East" .

This is my first post, I had to sign-up and post my two cents on Nostradamus. Priest is my favorite band by far and I couldn't be more disappointed with Nostradamus. Judas Priest is a heavy metal band and I don't want a broadway album from them. Painkiller is my favorite album, however, I don't need painkiller 2, although that is my dream. Just make a heavy metal record that jams, what heavy metal/priest fan wants a broadway album? It's obvious they can still produce great songs because the song nostradamus and prophecy are quite good. We the fans deserve better and I feel cheated with this record.
As for the tour, who wants to hear Angel and Death? How do you add the two weaker songs from Painkiller? I'm glad they changed up the setlist, however, some of the selections are mind-boggling. Nothing from Turbo, Ram it Down? How about Reckless, Wild Nights, Jawbreaker, Hard as Iron, Screaming for Vengeanance, Hot Rockin etc.?
I had to get this off my chest.

hi, sorry if this has been asked before but with respect to the free concert ticket if one buys the album on the 17th, is that applicable for digital purchases also? I bought the album from itunes for quicker availability on the 17th, but don't see any code on the digital booklet.
do let me know.
btw, this is my first Judas Priest purchase after 17-18 years (last one being Painkiller)....I had lost touch over time, but man, priest still rocks!!!
thanks,

BEEN A FAN OF JUDASPRIEST SINCE I WAS A TEENAGER(SOME THIRTY ODD YEARS AGO), GOT THEIR LATEST OFFERING "NOSTRADAMUS" TODAY, WHAT CAN BE SAID BUT WHAT A FANTASIC ALBUM, BUT YOU'D EXPECT NOTHING ELSE FROM THE GREATEST BRITISH ROCK BAND. THE BEST THING OF ALL THEY RELEASD IT ON GOOD OLD FASHIONED VYNIL AN EXCELLENT MOVE IN MY OPINION, SO IF YOU HAVEN'T GOT IT YET I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT
HAPPY LISTENING

Cheers ill look into them
** Well i tried to post in the other threads in regards to the leaked album, but i couldnt post as it said i needed more respect points. So i decided to post here instead.
Anyway, i heard the new album and i must say i really really generally liked it, im really happy they didnt make painkiller, screaming or defenders V2.0. This album really has feeling and emotion and fits perfectly with my mood in regards to what im listening to at the moment. Robs voice is great but it has very little halford screeching, but thats ok as he made for it with heaps of emotion throughout the rest of the songs.
The solos are fantastic and sound just like priest but this time they tried something new and it worked(for me). The drumming is great sounds just like priest. What makes this album really different to me seems to be the pace and the epicness(is that a word :P) of the songs, so much emotion and so much atmosphere.
Is it different? f*ck yeah! but that doesnt mean it sucks, just dont expect 3 to 4 mins catchy anthems or painkiller expect... well dont expect anything just listen to it and have fun
