Judas Priest clearly has no intention of slowing down. Rob Halford has made it well-known that retirement is not in his vocabulary at the moment because the band not too long ago reissued their 1974 debut album Rocka Rolla.
Now in an interview with Audio Ink Radio, Halford has expressed his hope that Judas Priest will write and file the follow-up to this yr’s Invincible Defend sooner or later. In all probability not quickly, however hey – 20 albums is a fairly respectable quantity of albums if the band does finally get there. And Halford clearly intends to.
“Properly, it is what we do,” stated Halford. “I feel most bands will inform you that their relevance is predicated on their music and the place they’re at that individual second of their of their life as a band and that is all the time sustained by the brand new music that you just create. So regardless that we’ve not gone into that world but, into that new world of music, I feel that it is inevitable there might be one thing else. When it’ll occur. I do not know.”
He continued: “This band thrives on the metallic that we make, the time that we spend with one another, ‘trigger there’s loads of love on this band for one another. We admire that we want time downtime to go and be who we’re exterior of the band, which is necessary, so you may decompress and take a deep breath and relaxation and chill after which put together for the following metallic assault. However that is what Priest has been doing. Fifty years in the past, we began with Rocka Rolla. Fifty years later, we now have Invincible Defend. So, sooner or later, there’s gonna be one other one, clearly.”
Judas Priest has been on a tear currently with each Firepower and Invincible Defend, so why not go for a 20th file?
