JUDAS PRIEST Frontman To Debut First New HALFORD Track In Four Years
October 26, 2006This November will see a flurry of release from one of heavy metal's all-time great voices, JUDAS PRIEST's Rob Halford. Rob's solo band HALFORD make an unforgettable and exclusive return to Apple's iTunes Music Store this fall. On November 21, 2006 HALFORD will debut its first new track in more than four years: "Forgotten Generation" exclusively at Apple.com/iTunes/store — keyword: Halford.
One week later — on November 28, 2006 — three (3) full-length HALFORD albums: "Resurrection" with bonus material (2000/2006),"Live Insurrection" (2001/2006),and "Crucible" with bonus material (2002/2006) will be re-released after being re-acquired earlier this year. "Resurrection" signaled HALFORD's glorious metallic return, and featured a duet with IRON MAIDEN's Bruce Dickinson, "The One You Love To Hate". The ensuing tour was faithfully documented on "Live Insurrection", which combined new HALFORD and FIGHT tracks with such PRIEST classics as "Stained Class", "Genocide", and "Breaking the Law". HALFORD's sophomore studio set, "Crucible", showed the group continuing to gel as one of metal's fiercest outfits, before the singer returned to front the classic JUDAS PRIEST line-up once more. All titles are available exclusively at Apple.com/iTunes/store — keyword: Halford.
The new "Halford: Metal God Essentials - Volume 1" (2006) release features fifteen (15) outstanding tracks from Rob's early solo days right up to the inclusion of two new HALFORD tracks from the current "Halford IV" writing sessions: "Forgotten Generation" and "Drop Out".
