Weak enough song. Wouldn't race to buy it if many others are this level of quality.

Thought I heard Rocky training for the Russian at the start!

I love it. Pure cheese, pure priest!

Thumbs up from me too, the synths at the start definitely got an eyebrow though. I think they might have been a bit mischievous  releasing this now at the same time as KK's release, the JP isn't out til March for chrissake

Some of yis need to lighten up a bit, it's good. As good as you could hope for this late in their career, plus the 80s cheese is welcome (to my ears). How is Rob Halford still doing it?  Looking forward to the album, though a March release seems a little too far away.

The 80s keys certainly work for me too. More please.

The album artwork looks like it's for a new, horrible flavour of Lucozade or something.

Anyway... Halford was Marc Maron's guest on WTF yesterday. I'm about halfway though. Decent enough chat.

New track is great and, as others have said, if it keeps up the momentum of Firepower then I'll be a happy chappy. "Give me more cheesy synth", I say!

Another new song, Trial By Fire:

It's alright, a bit ploddy. Reminded me more of recent Maiden than Priest TBH.

That new one is incredibly dull. Here's hoping the majority of the album is more like the first single.

Yeah! Doesn't kick like the first one. But hopefully it sits well on the album as a whole.

new song is awful...halford sounds like a guy on youtube putting on a halford voice

Sad Wings on again earlier. Man that album is growing into my favorite Prudast Jiest. So feckin good.

New songs are shite. Richie may have been brought in to look like KK but he can't write a good riff like KK, based on these and the last album.

Yes I agree with this. Has been my favourite since I was a nipper. Dreamer Deceiver is fantastic. 70s priest really has a different feel to it.
