Judas Priest - Update On New Album, Start Recording In January
Dissident aggressors Judas Priest are working on a new album to follow Redeemer Of Souls (2014) and guitarist Richie Faulkner was recently interviewed by Sweetwater editorial director Mitch Gallagher during "Making Hard Rock Look Easy", a three-day recording master class which was held October 20-22 at Sweetwater's campus in Fort Wayne, Indiana. The band has been in the studio working on new songs but the actual recording will begin in January. The album is expected in 2017.
Speaking about the progress of the songwriting and recording sessions for the band's new album, Richie said: "I just flew straight back out of the U.K., straight to Sweetwater. We've just been in the studio for a couple of months putting songs together. We haven't started the recording process yet, but we're recording demos; we're recording songs that work without the production to save them, if you know what I mean. But the core value... We're putting down some grassroots ideas and fleshing them out for the next Priest record. So we're gonna go into the studio to start recording in January. So it should be out sometime next year. But we're not touring next year. So we're gonna be touring, hopefully, in 2018."

Washed up band. I won't make the mistake again to give them another chance. They had a good run, but all good things must(/have) come to an end.

Written by sbgmetal on 04.11.2016 at 19:57 I am a Priest fan, just not of the mediocre stuff they have released over the last couple of albums and some albums earlier on in their career as well.

Written by Guest on 04.11.2016 at 23:08 They might put out another good one after a couple of poor ones. Painkiller was one of their best received albums, and it followed 2 or 3 of their poorest received ones. Plus my 2 fav Priest albums are about 30 years apart, so there might be another gem in 20 years time  Written by Guest on 04.11.2016 at 23:08 It worked for Motorhead.
