Love it. Love Priest. I’m really kind of glad to hear Rob Halford making a return to his lower singing range. I’m all for Rob showing of his incredible highs, but I think he’s been overusing them in previous Priest albums (Painkiller). This is awesome to me. Ian Hill has a certain understated genius to his playing. Some may call it simplistic but I think of it more as providing the foundation for the massive guitar attack Priest is famous for.
