Firepower [CD]

Priest is back with a real barnburner! Best album in years for a classic metal band!

Rob Halford is as metal as it gets. Judas Priest are the definition of heavy metal. At almost 70 years old we don't get the high octave singing we once did but that is expected and people I've seen doing reviews on other sites should quit complaining. What we do get is one of the greatest vocalists in the game. The band, minus KK, has had time now with his replacement R. Faulkner in the studio and live, on this album it shows how tight they have reached musically, it's truly a new level for the later albums. I'm not the fan many others are of Andy Sneaps production. It is much better production than Redeemer of Souls, but could have been better. I do think bringing Tom Allom in the fold on production was brilliant and a better album for it. Is this classic 5 star priest I'm giving it, I would say truly 4 and half strong. The cover art is excellent. To still have priest putting out this quality material at this time is incredible. I love this album, I love this band. Halford is amazing.

Nostradamus was a letdown. Redeemer of Souls was a big step in the right direction again. And now we get Firepower, an amazing album in every respect. The songwriting, performances, and production are top notch. A very inspired and sonically excellent presentation. Priest Fans of any era should enjoy this.

This is the best Judas Priest CD since Painkiller. A bunch of good songs that keeps the Priest legacy intact. If you don't already have this CD, it is highly recommended!

Awesome cd! The Priest are back! Not a bad song on this, I listen to it all the time.

I had seen the album art for Firepower for a while, and I thought it was awesome. But, when my radio began playing a few of the new tracks was when I really began to get sucked in. This sounded like Judas Priest! Plus, old bands with new music? So, I purchased it ASAP after work, played it coming home and going in the next day, and already thoroughly enjoyed. If you like JP, buy this album!

If you are of a Judas Priest fan,then you already have this.You know. It's some of their best work In years!! Rob sounds better than ever and with the addition of Richie Faulkner on guitar, just takes It's to another level. If you love Metal get this album!!

What a comeback for Priest. Rocked back in the day and continues today. Great price on sale and quick pick up.
