treeduck Posted July 3, 2020 Author Share Posted July 3, 2020 Gotta disagree with you here Zepphead. Firepower is a top 5 Priest album for multiple people on this site and for good reason. For 34 years KK and Glenn were great together, and now for the past few years Richie and Glenn have been just as good together. And idk how it could be the Rob Halford band when Scott’s been the longest running Priest drummer ever and he’s every bit as great as either Les Binks or Dave Holland, and Ian Hill has always been there on bass, in fact Ian is the only member who’s been in every incarnation!Just my opinion .... Hill has always been there yes, but does he do the talking? ... no .... always uncle Rob has the say so with Priest .... i think he pulls the strings now.Don't disagree that Firepower is a good album, but in my eyes Priest's best days are well behind them.Which 45 year old band's best days are not behind them? And just because a band isn't in their heyday anymore doesn't mean that a good album isn't a good album. A lot of people listen to bands without using their ears, they use their ideas of the band to listen to them with instead. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexMike Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 No KK no priest. Have you heard Redeemer Of Souls or Firepower? Don't forget KK screwed the band over and left them hanging when he decided to retire after the band had announced a big world tour. Yep, they are way better off without him. KK is lucky that Rob and Glenn came along or else nobody would know who he is today. I just wish we could've heard Richie alongside peak Glenn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexMike Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 Am I the only one who didn't know until yesterday that Rob has a book coming out in three months? Pre-order available on Amazon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zepphead Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 I surrender ..... I will leave you to enjoy the rejuvenated Priest with new guitarist Ritchie Faulkner who, by the sound of things, is metal god, guitar hero and rock messiah all rolled into one lol! Donno why they bothered with old KK! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zepphead Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 No KK no priest.You can still buy the new KK's Priest album featuring Les Binks and Ripper Owens.Indeed! .... but will just be another decent metal album .... not bad but nothing special ..... just like Priest.
