Judas Priest gave us a special look at their new album Invincible Shield earlier this year. That look included the new single “Panic Attack”, now they’re back teasing more from that new record with a look at “Trial By Fire.”
As the post says, “TRIAL BY FIRE, FRIDAY”. We’ll have to see how the song sounds outside of this snippet when it comes out on Friday. “Panic Attack” was a fantastic-sounding single from the band that showcased the evolution of their sound from the Firepower record. That album was a landmark release for Judas Priest, so one can only expect Invincible Shield to be just as good.
Judas Priest is currently dormant on the road, waiting for 2024 to roll around. They embarked on their 50 Heavy Metal Years tour in 2022. The only concert date they’ve played and will play in 2023 was Power Trip. They played a headlining setlist of 19 tracks in Indio, California, alongside Iron Maiden, Guns N’ Roses, Metallica, Tool, and AC/DC.
The band is heading out on the road for a UK tour for the first time in almost a decade. They were hung up because of obligations to an Ozzy Osbourne tour, but now they can hit their homeland with some heavy metal thunder.
invincible Shield releases on March 8th, 2024. You can pre-order it here, and it comes in several special edition options like vinyl, cassette, and more!
