Judas Priest Release Audio Sample and Cover Art for New Album



Judas Priest have been working away at making a brand new studio album. You know, for a band that said a while back that they were retiring they sure do seem to keep busy. Anyway, they just put out an audio sample (which can be heard in the video above) and the cover art (which can be viewed below) for their upcoming record Fire Power.

The cover art doesn't seem to be anything special or out of the ordinary for Judas Priest, but that's ok. You can't judge a book by its cover. What is important is the music. That said, the clip that they released....WOW. These guys have been at it for well over 40 years and they are still just as thrilling, heavy, driven, creative, etc. as they were when they were making albums like Hellbent for Leather or Painkiller.

Fire Power is set to hit the shelves March of next year. Judas Priest has yet to give an exact date, though. I don't know about you, but if the whole album is anything like what we heard in that 15 second clip then I'm pretty excited and feel it will be a pretty great record. Rob Halford can still scream like a banshee and guitarist Richie Faulkner has really come up in his balls as a player and writer for Judas Priest. Hopefully they release a full single soon.
