I like that stuff too so don't go by that.This sounds nothing like those albums. I think the Two
CD has more good songs than this. Other than the homoeroctic pictures it beats this album hands
down. Before I go any further I would like to stress that this is my opinion and it only matters to me.
Listen for yourself and make up your own mind. Come back and tell us what you think. 
Positive or otherwise. Peace!

Hey, i am getting my copy of the album this week and i am looking forward to it and i REALLY hope i like it but having read what some of you are saying i am getting worried LOL

I am the opposite to JD, I thought Crucible was a step backwards after Ressurection... i am also a big fan of Fight's War Of Words album.

I shall listen to Made Of Metal with a veeeery open mind..

I've just listened to the album again all the way through and I must say:   "What a disappointment".   14 tracks on this album and I like "none of them".  The only part of any of this that I do like is the vocals on the one song "Hell Razor" as it does sound Priest-like but the chorus absolutely ruins this song,blah this album "sucks". 

Songs like 'Fire And Ice" reek of a rip-off from power metal bands like Hammerfall and Blind Guardian whom I hate anyways. I really don't like any of these songs at all,at least Resurrection had 2 that were ok:  "Resurrection" and "The One You Love To Hate" as I hate the rest of that album,Crucible I liked almost all of it, all of the Winter Songs album totally blows and now this lame album,I don't see how anybody can get into this record,but whatever floats yer boats I guess.

Boy,Priest better come up with better material than this tripe or it will be a sad day listening to the new Priest album. A totally huge "SIGH".

I thought about that after I wrote it but it was too late to delete it. I really am struggling to get into this album though.
I only like 4 or 5 songs so far and I hate some of the song subjects. I try to get into 25 years, I dig a cool ballad now and then but
this sounds like a ripoff of Silent Screams. I like Til' The Day I Die, and, Painkiller is the last thing on my mind when I think of 
new Halford or Priest. I want Heavy Metal from those guys and that can involve many different styles of songs. The Mower
is my favorite song because of it's heaviness but I don't want an entire album of that. My problem with this album is too many
songs like ...Fire And Ice
                     ...We Own The Night
                      ...Heartless
I love Judas Priest and I love Rob Halford so I hate ripping them and I definitely am not trying to antagonize anyone. (Shit) was 
a little much and I do apologize for that one. Peace.

That's why I don't like Thunder and Lightning. It feels like a re-hash of the same ideas used in Fire and Ice. Basically, "We're like this and that and because of it we'll always be there for each other" and so on.

I respect your opinion Bud, but to call it "shit like this"?
I'm really getting into Till the Day I Die. Love the Southern Rock style turned metal and I love the lyrics in it too. But I've always had a wide range of musical taste and that's why I LOVE Priest. If I wanted to hear the same thing over and over again, well, I wouldn't be here! For those who only want Painkiller, this is not the album for you. I love Rob's voice and he sounds great. He doesn't have to be constantly screaming for me to like a song either. I was hoping it would be a heavier album but I like it. And CONGRATS to Rob on 25 years of sobriety in January!!!

Hell Razor is cool as for the vocals alone, LOL I keep going on about that song

No crying here. I Don't expect most to agree with me on this one. I figured the
diehards would rip me. Rob can still sing the songs it's the songwriting on this album
that I hate the most. Also too many songs like Fire and Ice and Heartless.  Those kind 
of songs put a pit in my stomach. I like (heavy metal) not shit like this. The Mower is
more my style and like you said it's out of place. Maybe after a few listens my mind
will change. It's not like that's never happened before(LOL).

That "Made oF Metal" track is a bit cheesy. I've only heard Made of Metal and The Mower. Are the rest any better?

Supersonic silver flying machine  ...thats kind of a crack up.

Hey, Budred! Are you ready for the bashing?? *cracks knuckles* I'm known around these parts for breaking noses and making them bleed. So watch out!

...
Just kidding, just kidding...please don't cry...

Now, then. On to the subject at hand: HALFORD IV!

So far, I'm digging it! I enjoy all the songs up to Hell Razor (my all-time favorite so far), with Matador and Twenty-Five Years being the exceptions after it. The sports ones I can handle. Don't like Boxing, NASCAR, nor Bullfighting, but still. The music and that general theme of competition leaves me asking for more. 'Til the Day I Die is another good one. Love that bluesy beginning.
Thunder and Lightning sounds (to me) like a filler track. I Know We Stand a Chance is okay (not a favorite). And as much as I like The Mower, it seems out of place in this album.

Rob's singing is phenominal. He sounds as though he's singing at a comfortable range and isn't exerting himself too much. Others might call that a lack of effort, but in this case I disagree. He sounds great!

Overall, I give it an 8/10. Not as great as Crucible nor Resurrection, but enjoyable, nonetheless.

I haven't got my copy yet, but what I have listened to I like. Yeah the nascar and boxing type lyrics are cheesy, and my least favourite part so far, but also on the album are very personal songs like Twenty-Five Years. And the vocals on Hell Razor are amazing, we haven't heard Rob sing like that in a long time!

I know new threads suck (to some) but I thought this was appropriate. I'll go first.

I'm not digging it.
