Originally formed in Birmingham, England, by guitarist K. K. Downing and bassist Ian Hill in 1970, JUDAS PRIEST's veteran line-up consists of Downing, Hill, Rob Halford (vocals) and Glenn Tipton (guitar) and drummer Scott Travis. Clearly one of the most influential heavy metal bands of all time, JUDAS PRIEST is credited with launching the New Wave of British Heavy Metal music in the late 70s by consistently delivering distinctive, highly polished musical performances both on stage and in the recording studio. While wielding this powerful influence on the heavy metal music genre, Priest became wildly popular with fans for their leather-and-chains theatrics and signature sound, characterized as a blend of gothic doom and fast, powerful riffs laden with their own special ingredient, the relentless two-lead guitar attack.

Since the early 1980s JUDAS PRIEST has been a top concert attraction around the world, and their albums have sold over 35 million copies worldwide.
