Could"nt" of put it in text any better! Ithink alot of people coming to the site are afraid to give honest opinion ,so they keep to themselves. How can you come to this site if you are a true priest fan and say this album kicks ass! About 4 tracks catch me, but not in a metal way !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

		Well I've listened to Nostradamus a lot and I'm afraid just can't get into it at all. I had doubts when I heard it was going to be a concept album  after that debacle of Lochness and sad to say my full fears have been realised Firstly it's FAR TOO LONG. It's in need of serious editing.  On the whole it's a mistake to let musicians produce their albums. The Jimny Pages of the world can get away with it, but most groups can't.. Possibly it's an ego thing-  band members insisting that their particular song should be included.  This album needed a producer (such as Tom) who could rack the whip and chuck out the songs that frankly just don't  hack it. It's samey. Most of the time, I'm hard pushed telling one song from another. It's almost like listening to a metal Andrew Lllyod Webber. Glen And KK are in excellent form and Halford is vocally stronger than on Angel Of Retribution. But Hill may have well not have been there. He's been mixed so far down  he may has well not have bothered playing. And what the hell have they done with  the brilliant Travis. From the sounds of it, they've used a fucking drum machine.     There are a few very good songs on Nostradamus. But I have to say I'm let down. After hearing this, I just stick on Stained Class, Painkiller, Screaming For Vengeance , Sad Wings, British Steel etc. That's what Priest are about. It also seems that people who are negative are getting a bashing for daring to have an opinion. I guess they're Mugabe supporters. Edited at: Sunday, June 29, 2008 2:23:25 PM Edited at: Sunday, June 29, 2008 2:25:01 PM Edited at: Sunday, June 29, 2008 2:26:15 PM

Hi everybody,i am from izmir-Turkey.Nostradamus is releasing here today,i am actually waiting for the music store to call me...Come on come on ,i am very excited,i know this album rules !!!

Take Care.

Nostradamus is a brave and welcome move for a band who made their name doing just that; being brave.

When I first heard JP it was Sad Wings. What appealed then was the sense of musical adventure/drama mixed with ear-drill riffing, and the fact that they pushed the envelope further than Sabbath or anything I’d heard before.

With Nostradamus they’ve re-invented themselves again and the entire feel of the CD sits beautifully alongside their earlier stuff. In the forthcoming tour (got my ticket – the waiting begins!) I hope we hear of both ends of their amazing catalogue.

 What's the ecuse they are getting old settling for anything they put out lame comment, I'm 48 still doing construction when icant do it i wont do half ass work this album which i listen to belongs in an OPERA.!

Dont know necro ,but would like to know the story I think the new album is ok it is no way there best album ever u who think that dont know HEAVY METAL>!!!!!!!!!!!!! People who post that must have 2 deaf ears or never listen to earlier albums.Ive been fan over 30 years to DEFENDERS OF THE FAITH> IF you think its better than that you aint a preist fan.

I  just think the new album is fantastic!!! the fact that theese guys are even still writing , touring, and doin it is great. well done lads!!!. If you are a fan of there music and talent than how can you not like this creative masterpeace.

i hope i can sing half as good as that when i'm his age!!!! true emotion, feel,and power.The Preist rules!!!!
