Judas Priest Forget What Year It Is, Drop Double Album About <i>Nostradamus</i>
“We’re treating this like it’s the holy grail of heavy metal. We’re so protective about it – which you have to be – because I think that one of the intriguing things about creating anything – whether it be writing a book or making a movie – the less you say about something, the more people want to know about it. And we don’t need to hype it up, it’s internal. The metal fans around the world have great expectations for this record. They know we’re not going to drop the ball. They know we’re going to give everybody something that’s fantastic and top quality. And that’s what it should be after 35 years.”
This may be unlikely, but I’d like to think that Rob Halford was partially inspired by this Mr. Show skit.
“I’ve got a prediction for you, I think your 500-year-old flabby ass is gonna drive me cray-zeee!“
