Judas Priest- Nostadamus

[perkins]

Not too bad. I could do without some of the synthesized guitars, but it's a concept album so it kinda works. Also very long (2 CDs), probably unnecessarily so. A lot of "Before the Dawn"-type filler in between the heavier stuff.

Kinda refreshing though, that there are no songs about rocking, and it's not at all commercial. Halford has most definitely still got it. F*cker can hit some ungodly notes.

I'd love to do a Priest poster. How long do I have again before that collider-thing ends the world?

Good record.

I knew once I saw the words Judas Priest on it.

Then I listened to it and I was right.

[The Fresh Prints]

just heard it the other night. rules for priest.

[Plantweed]

Not bad...they're most "proggy" record since the '70s. I love everything they did before Turbo.

[perkins]

It's a bit orchestraic at times. Like a sort of hellish rock opera.

[Jeff Kleinsmith]

Yep. "Sad Wings of Destiny" is the best.

[Plantweed]

Stained Class is my favorite, but we had a lot of good drunk/drugged times to Unleashed.

[perkins]

I always dug Hell Bent for Leather. Screaming for Vengeance was pretty stellar, even if a bit more commercial. Pretty much everything from Sad Wings thru Defenders of the Faith ruled.

[perkins]

Kinda freaks me out to listen to apocalyptic tunes like "The Four Horsemen", while news on that particle collider is flashing across CNN. Spooky.

halford was epic on kimmel the other night.
