Ian Hill and Judas Priest Announce New Album, Tour Dates

Judas Priest

2018 is shaping up to be a great year for Judas Priest. The band is among the year’s nominees for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and now they’ve announced a new album and accompanying North American tour.

Anchored by bassist Ian Hill, (who has played on every album), Firepower will also coincidentally be their 18th studio album. The supporting tour will kick off in March in Wilkes Barre, Pennsylvania before heading looping up the East Coast into Canada, back down the West Coast, and across to Texas.
