There is a link in blue text that says 'Play all tracks'. Click on that and a Windows Media Player window will pop up. You can click the different track names to skip around if you don't wanna listen from start to finish. I clicked on that link that said "Play all tracks" and an "MTV.com Media Player" popped up. I clicked on "Play all tracks" in that window and the only thing that happens is that the ad in the big box on the right changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeddyLeeRoth Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Is the new album not being recieved very well? Rob said they were going to play it in its entirety, but they are only playing two tracks from it (although the set list kicks total ass). Question for Priest fans. I only own Metal Works on CD and haven't heard any of their earlier albums in like over 20 years. Which albums stand out as must haves? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treeduck Posted June 14, 2008 Author Share Posted June 14, 2008 I think you have to get them all... Rocka Rolla for instance isn't highly regarded by some people but it has some amazing tracks like Dying to Meet you, Cheater and Run of the Mill... So get them all except maybe Jugulator and Demolition, they don't really sound like Priest with Ripper (though he's a good singer) and the song quality and production is pretty poor.

I don't know why they didn't keep Les Binks back in 1979, he was an excellent drummer and I can't see why he wouldn't have been the right guy to play on British Steel, Point of Entry, Screaming, Defenders et al. I mean you don't say: "Look we're changing our style very slightly so let's go out and get a bad drummer to replace our good one." it makes no sense.

Barchetta82 Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 Just finished listening to Nostradamus for the second time. First listen, i wasn't convinced. But the second listen hit me like a brick wall. This album is freaking epic!! Great vocals, incredible guitars. I'm very impressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
