Album will be first release with Ritchie Faulkner
Judas Priest frontman Rob Halford revealed in an interview with Artisan News that the band's new album is already finished. Check out the vocalist's statement:
“It’s absolutely finished. It’s a relief, because whenever Priest works on an album, like any other band, they put their heart and soul into it. It’s truly ‘blood, sweat and tears’. It’s not something easy to do after 40 years on the road. But we’ve always loved it and been up to it. This is a great phase for Priest; 40 years, a new album. Life couldn’t be better.”.

Regarding the sound of the new album, Halford told Billboard last year: “It’s very heavy. We know we have a reputation to uphold and we have to deliver something strong and solid.”
Judas Priest's new album marks the first release with guitarist Ritchie Faulkner in the band, and is expected this year.
