@guido ... Les Binks is not in the video and obviously not on the album and has a wrist injury ...I chose to believe otherwise I think when they started writing the album he simply does not have the CHOPS to play this style of drums ...
And he's playing on a couple classic tracks on a few selective shows or what the hell ever I don't think Downing thought this all the way through and later realized Les can't play it ha ha ha dude no way that's Les Binks on drums in the audio. Kk should of gone the opposite direction and went for a 70s style Judas Priest like Stained Class and Hell Bent For Leather style to match Les Binks' stripped down drum style.
But yeah I just don't like Tim Owens but a Stained Class Hell Bent For Leather primitive style would of came out of left field and would of been unexpected and may of made Owens voice more tolerable perhaps idk. Yeah KK is still my hero but to see him waste this on generic print out vending machine produced metal is tough to watch. Judas Priest will release something as strong as Firepower but as we know it'll be different. I just hope we like it because it's not a given they will always release something high quality like they have with Ritchie but I am hopeful.
There's more a chance the new Judas Priest will be quality than KKs crappy scrub mundane boring over produced yawn we just heard. Fucking lame. And I was bitching about Nostrdamous! KKs song makes Nostrdamous seem like Screaming For Vengeance.
I like the crappy production on Redeemer Of Souls because it wasn't intended to be but it made it DIFFERENT and retro it sounds like it could of been released in 1989 a year before Painkiller.
K.K.'s Priest. Lame name,lame singer,lame over produced sound,lame album cover.LAME.
