What's your opinion. I liked this one more than anything on their last album.
Here's also the new track list and it looks kinda retarded to me:

I could do without shit loads of skits and intros.
Anyway what's with this trend that you have to have AT LEAST 16 songs in one album. I'd rather have 8-12 good ones than 22 fillers and 6 real ones.

I could only listen to it once, it did not send cold shivers down my spine. Good riffs but then again much too long song. Vocals were good! Argh. And those keyboards? Sounded like some b-class italian power metal group. And that does not make your music epic.

As I have already said, it seems to be self produced album which probably means it is much much too long. Get a producer who has balls to whip your ass in studio (Halford could enjoy that also?)!
I can't comment on sounds as I listened to it through build-in speakers.

Anyway I'll buy this when it's out and I have already ticket for the gig in Helsinki.

I'm going to that gig also. Too bad I got a seat ticket

I think the song sounded absolutely great.

Yes, it sounds promizing, much better than the precedent album.

Yeah my hopes grew higher when I heard this song. I wish that the rest of the album is as good.

I've had high hopes for "Nostradamus" ever since I read about it. Loved "Angel Of Retribution", and this preview gives promises of something even better. So they're aiming for something more grand and epic this time - I'm sure they'll pull it off, they the fucking PRIESTS for Xssake!

Btw, I think the sound might be better from this link than from YouTube: http://www.epicrecords.com/judaspriest/

Since the album will be out so soon, I won't be listening to that track. But judging from the comments I've read so far, I don't think I'll be disappointed.

I like the new song a lot. I despised Angel of Retribution, so this was a big suprise. I wasn't planning on getting the new album, but I probably will now.

I didn't like Angel Of Retribution either. Well I only heard it through two or three times but it didn't sound good to me. The new song worked right away.

I love AOR ( )! It just clicks with my mind, Hellrider is the only song I don't like on it so much.

BUSTED!!


What do think about the odds of seeing Nostradamus on vinyl? Anyone heard any rumors?

In addition to the regular jewel case double CD version of the album, collectors will undoubtedly be interested in hunting down a copy of a Deluxe Double CD housed in a 48 page hardbound book package. But that's not all - a Super Deluxe Box-set version will also be available with triple vinyl, the double CD, an expanded booklet & a poster.

the operistic voice for the intro is cheesy ......musicwise is good, actually pretty good

as a judas fan ill have to buy it.....halford is still singing!!!

I've heard lots of complaining about the intro. I personally think it rocks. So what if it's cheesy? Heavy Metal IS cheesy. Look at the "Breaking The Law" music video for example. cheesy? Yes. Awsome? Damn Right!
