JUDAS PRIEST Looking At Mid-Year Release For Nostradamus Concept Album
January 4, 2007, 17 years ago
Launch Radio Networks has issued the following report from Bruce Simon:
Things are going well with the recording of the new JUDAS PRIEST album. It's a concept album about the 16th Century French prophet Nostradamus, and the band has started thinking about release dates.
Frontman Rob Halford told us that everyone's excited about the project: "The writing sessions were fantastic - some of the best writing that (guitarists) Glenn (Tipton) and K.K. (Downing) and myself have ever created, and we're in good shape, we're recording. And finger's crossed, and with the belief that it's ready when it's ready, we should be out by the middle of 2007 with Nostradamus."
This will be Priest's first album since Angel Of Retribution came out in 2005, marking Halford's return to the group.
Judas Priest is also working out the details for a stage show to go along with the album's subject matter.
