No disrespect to ripper,but its not even close. yes he is younger and quite impressive vocally, but halford is the gold standard for metal vocalists. it took priest four years just to find some one who can mimic halford. it didnt take ac/dc,iron maiden or van halen that long to replace their original singers. It takes moer than being able to scream some high-c notes and compare your self to the metal god. HALFORD has a unique character,nuance and versatility to his voice. from anguished yelps to soul in damnation screams to demonic growls to windswept baritones, halford is and remains incomparable.

Haven't heard Tim Owens for some time...and "wow".....I can't believe how much this doesn't "sound right" for Judas Priest. Tim is a great vocalist don't get me wrong....
But he was not a fit for Judas Priest. Not to mention....Feed On Me is not a quality Priest track even with the Ripper era...I don't like that song...but more power to ya Numero Uno...
Tim's voice is to "Americanized" sounding for Judas Priest....not that Rob's british accent is present in songs because its not but for some reason Tims vocals sound to Americanized for me.

I've said it before but is this even a topic? Why not call the thread Rob Halford Or A Guy Who Sounds Like Rob Halford?

Turbo was one of their worst, and as many people either dont like it, or dont like to admit that they like it. I do like many songs on it! Its very commcercial-sounding but Reckless is a sweet song, its my fav on that album! damn cool solo too [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by Rebel 06 from Thursday, July 09, 2009 12:30:24 PM)

RoooooooooB F yea really after Turbo(which alot of people did not like ) who really cares????? I do mean no offense to any fans out there, especially my buddy British Steele but really????????????
They are just going through the motions. Really a wate of time in my opinion.
Any time they want to tour under the geise of a "reunion" or playing the old classics, a sell out no problem!!!
I was personally very disappointmed last year. They did not even play Living after Midnight!!!
Anyways, peace out Edited at: Thursday, July 09, 2009 12:30:55 PM

....As if most people would consider "Jugulator" one of Priest's best albums.....give me a break. You know,I know and the entire world knows that the guys at that wherehouse if not playing Nostradamus..after your request for them to play something "good" by Judas Priest...they would of pulled out "British Steel"...."Screaming For Vengeance"...Sad Wings Of Destiny....Unleashed In The East....Defenders Of The Faith..ect...
You know well as I do that they would of never pulled out the Jugulator album....that is "fantasy". [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by Nicholas Fivepennies from Sunday, July 05, 2009 2:56:04 PM)

You folks can bash Ripper Owens as much as you want, but that boy could sing.
Some time ago I was at Wherehouse and the store was playing the entire freaking "Nostradamus" cd! I said to one of the fools working in the back: "So, you guys are playing NOSTRADAMUS? Out of all the albums of Judas Priest you could have chosen from... Why not play something good like Jugulator?" Out of all those Judas Priest albums they decided to play one of the WORST. That's Wherehouse for ya...
