Ok,I will finaley "have some faith".....you've convinced me after all. And people say that posting your opinions don't matter? Ha Ha,they do. I must find it in me to trust Judas Priest to put out a traditional style album for thier next LP.

I will be waiting for the next album hellrider,and yes it makes sense that the band would do something along the lines of a british heavy metal album!

Thats "one" album in the last 9 years that is a worthy Judas Priest album in my opinion only,I know we all have different opinions here,I'm just giving mine thats all.So to "me" I have no faith in the band returning to it's "roots" here. I want a killer album like Retribution,but I don't have any faith in them delivering one.  How can I?      Bazooka Joe wrote: Hey man Rob said that when (not if), when Priest do a new album it will NOT be like Nostradamus.

Yes Vaillant 3.0 ....Judas Priest "scares me" anymore.  At thier age right now,and the Nostradamus album....I think that the band will either "retire" after this tour,or simply put out another album as non-metal-as Nostradamus.

If I am wrong,I will log on here and admit it in front of everybody. But I don't think I'm going to be wrong here,I think with Rob's slow stage movement and with Deep Freeze's posts about how he just does'nt seem to be "into it" anymore...makes me think that the band should just retire after this British Steel set list-tour. 

In my opinion,Nostradamus should of been the time when the band should of pulled everything together and tried to create the best Judas Priest album they could possibly create,like they did with Angel Of Retribution which may not be Priest's best album,but they sure as hell came close...to me its the band's 5th best album. But I just don't see them "returning to thier roots". Thats just my opinion. Call me a pessimist,and I "am" but I  "may" be right here folks.

		Hey, J.D. Just a bit curious. What really brought you to this conclusion? Are you afraid JP will follow the same road as Metallica? Have there been other bands that also "experimented" and gone astray from the world of Heavy Metal? Is that why you're being distrustful of this band and its ability to return to its metal roots? Enlighten me, because I'm still learning about this genre.    (Quoting Message by J.D.
