Halford described the new album so far as having "screaming vocals" and "shredding guitars" . Right up my alley. I was calling long ago for some new blood injected in to the band and we have it with Richie Faulkner and it's sounding like he will contribute some ideas. What would I not like about it??  If it's another A.O.R. or Nostradamus then I'll pass but I doubt it.

I'm sure Hellrider will enjoy all of this even if  Downing doesn't return. 

And Downing could easily come back.

And please explain ....who exactly is the "majority" here? ...you and the few other members here you always bring up when you're trying to prove a point?? 

Sorry, but I don't think so.
