JUDAS PRIESTESS, the all-female tribute band to heavy metal icons JUDAS PRIEST, has released a new single, "Dissident Aggressor", via Golden Robot Records. You can now listen to the track below.

Since its inception, JUDAS PRIESTESS has captivated audiences with its hard-hitting performances, paying homage to one of metal's most iconic bands while adding their own fierce, feminine edge. Known for its electrifying stage presence and skillful interpretations of JUDAS PRIEST's catalog, the band has established itself as the "top tribute" in metal, with endorsements from industry legends. Rob Halford himself, the "Metal God," praised the band in his recent book "Biblical", describing them as "brilliant," while former JUDAS PRIEST lead guitarist K.K. Downing called JUDAS PRIESTESS "metal's top tribute."

JUDAS PRIESTESS frontwoman Militia Vox dueted with Halford himself on supergroup BAD PENNY's track "Push Comes To Shove", making Militia the only singer to have a song with the person they've tributed.

The ladies in JUDAS PRIESTESS are featured in the documentary about funk-rock icon Betty Davis "They Say I'm Different" (now streaming on Amazon Prime),as well as on VH1's "That Metal Show", where they first received the blessing of the Metal God. Global TV, High Times magazine and Guitar World call JUDAS PRIESTESS one of the top female bands in the world today.

They have headlined House Of Blues at Mandalay Bay on the world-famous Las Vegas Strip and consistently play to a sold-out crowd at their anniversary show at the legendary Stone Pony in Asbury Park, New Jersey.
