Since
1974, Judas Priest has been one
of heavy metal’s most successful bands, issuing such all-time classic
albums as 1980’s ‘British Steel,’ 1982’s
‘Screaming for Vengeance,’ and 1990’s
‘Painkiller,’ and such arena-rocking anthems as “Breaking the
Law,” “Living After Midnight,” and “You’ve Got
Another Thing Comin’.” Their influence goes far beyond their music
- they were the first metal band to embrace the ‘leather biker
look,’ a fashion that has since become synonymous with the musical genre.
Additionally, Halford’s powerful four-and-a-half octave vocal range and
the twin guitar harmonies of Downing and Tipton have been ‘studied’
by countless metal bands in Priest’s wake.
the original line up of the band tour Australia for the first time ever
this September! Tickets for the Australian tour go onsale on Friday 13
June.
