Faulkner is part of the next generation of metal! Great dude, love what I’ve heard so far. Excellent live in Priest, really seems to enjoy & appreciate what he does.
Best Interview. Had to come back to this after getting to know the album myself and couldn't agree more. This album is so fluid despite its eclectic roots and it absolutely tells a story. The guitar work is next level ad I'll surrender and agree that Ronnie did a great job. Can't wait for the time EW will be headlining.
Blind leading the Blind is a song where you go „man, this is perfectly written“! Everything fits like a glove and yes I think the Matthias Jabs element comes through in Richies Tone. 🤟🏻
Got to see the Falcon open up for Maiden when he was in Lauren Harris. This album kicks fucking ass. I'm a huge Ronnie Romero fan. Check out his works on MSG, the Ferryman and his main band Lord's of Black!
Completely paint by numbers generic stuff and all great and goodwill to Richie, I respect him a lot for coming in to Judas Priest and serving that role. But when it comes to 'Elegant Weapons' this is another stock and trade project with hired named musicians who are paid to play and sell their names to this. And people will be drawn to it because of names like Richie Faulkner and Scott Travis ring out. Ronnie Romero has this reputation of being cherry-picked from Ritchie Blackmore after having this voice and singing these kind of bog-standard covers... This stuff will not exist or persist past it's release date. No disrespect to Richie Faulkner or anyone else involved in this project but I'm so tired of these "label project albums". Does Richie really stand by this stuff as the best things he is capable of?? And why aren't these great ideas used for Priest? Lots of questions come to mind. If this stuff is for you then more power to you but it does nothing exciting at all, maybe its not meant to.
The best band ever period. All the best for the next album & tour. Your class Ritchie!
Maiden

The next generation of metal is LOVEBITES. ( An all-female band from JAPAN. )

I thought there was going to be a new Judas Priest album 2 years ago, what the hell's going on?! The last Judas Priest album came out 5 years ago.
they had to write it and record it! Halford still hadnt done his vocals on it recently.
For me Uriah heeps latest album will be hard beat for album of the year it's fantastic.
😄👍
