Eh, a DotF & SfV tour is - at this point - a rather impossible scenario, in my opinion. At the moment they're recording vocals for the 20th album, it seems that the whole thing is going to be finished surprisingly soon. They won't be on tour post-September (that's when Richie wants to play with...

Jack does, in fact, play at larger venues, but on his upcoming tour he’ll be performing at clubs - which is something he’s done before. It goes without saying that these concerts will sell out (and some already have). However, it doesn’t matter whether he plays there because of the interest in...

Jack White? I'm going to see him in June. Paid MUCH less for the ticket than I always pay for Priest's shows. Unlike Priest, Jack plays at clubs, not arenas. There's no way he makes more money than Priest.

Artists like Bruce Springsteen, Jack White, Pearl Jam and Metallica release live albums from literally every concert they play. The fact that Priest have Andy on board makes the entire technical process of working on this kind of release much easier for them. Even the Hellfest concert could have...

It's a pointless release, but it's possible that the songs featured on the album appear in the movie. However, I find it funny that Rob says there'll be no new live album since they aren't profitable... While this compilation is supposed to be profitable. It makes no sense, but then again, I...

I wouldn't say that the music Priest were making in the 70s was inspired by Black Sabbath. They certainly admired Sabbath since they were into what the quartet and it was definitely inspiring to see other guys from Birmingham become a big band. But songwriting wise, I don't see too many...

The 70s era really grew on me after a few years of listening to Priest. It's true, it was different than what came later. I still consider DotF and Painkiller the band's greatest records, but the vibe of the early records is just unique. I have no doubt that - in the context of the music itself...

We'll see how the idea works, but I was hoping for... Hmmm, less random guests. I don't have anything against Drover, but what does he have to do with Accept? Inviting Kaufmann would be great.

A few SWoD tracks (VoC and The Ripper seem to be guaranteed), some Turbo songs, perhaps another deep cut or two (so far, Fever has been mentioned a few times) + the hits. That's all I'm expecting. Richie said that at this point nothing's 100% certain since they only have a general concept for...

It was a mix of both. You can transport the stage set, but to do that, you need the tour to be profitable. The 2nd US leg wasn't as successful as it could/should have been. Which means that continuing the tour would be risky, financially speaking. Tobias said that to afford touring, 10 gigs per...

The original plan was to release the DVD in 2027. But the original plan for the Skeleta era was also to finish the tour in December 2026, so the release might come sooner than that.

Not the lore per se, but the soap opera side of it. There are plans for more comics and other stuff. I can imagine that he wants to go back to what Ghost were doing during the Infestissumam/Meliora era: releasing some videos presenting the world of Ghost, but on a much smaller scale. One year...

The only things they were aiming for in 1981 were alcohol and drugs haha. Music was the least interesting subject to Priest back then. The album could have been much better than what we got, but they weren't focusing on songwriting at all. The whole trip to Ibiza turned into a massive party...

Yeah, I suppose they might have rearranged Judas Rising. I guess that the original version could have sounded more like, let's say, Love Bites. It would be nice to hear the demo recording, assuming that it exists. I guess it does, I doubt that the band still remembered Judas Rising 20 years...

Mhm, yes, making Painkiller all over again. Let's see... Angel of Retribution - includes some Painkiller-esque tracks (Demonizer - IIRC, a song written for Jugulator, Hellrider). Other than that? Judas Rising is a song written DECADES earlier, it goes way back to the Defenders of the Faith era...

Hill's lines are much more present in the mix at concerts. He might not be the best bass player in the world, but he's a crucial member of Priest. He's one of the most important decision makers (ex aequo with Rob), he's been in the band since the first day. It doesn't matter if someone likes him...

15 years is a longer time than the whole Dave Holland's and Les Binks' eras combined. Some of these tracks are pretty much guaranteed to be played in 2026. Defenders is a big question because they can play literally anything from the album, but I expect them to perform The Ripper, Tyrant and...

Bruh, we're talking about two bands that perform rock music for dads. There's nothing rebellious about Metallica and there's nothing rebellious about Maiden. And that's okay, what matters is the music. If you want to taste anti-mainstream approach, go listen to thrash metal bands from Chile or...

I think he's doing much better now than in the 2010s. At least financially speaking. I don't really like his new albums (haven't heard the latest one yet), but people in general seem to appreciate them, and it looks like the interest in Blaze's gigs is bigger than 10 years ago. I'm happy for...
