Judas Priest Mines 'Metalogy' For Rarities
Appropriately packaged in leather and studs, a four-disc Judas Priest box set will be released May 4 by Sony Music/Legacy Records. Dubbed "Metalogy," the collection gathers 65 tracks of hits, favorites, B-sides and rarities recorded by the veteran heavy metal act between 1972 and 2002.
The material included in the box covers music released on the Gull, Sony Music/Columbia, CMC International, SPV, Atlantic and JVC labels. A full color book with the band's discography and a biographical essay will also feature a timeline and previously unpublished photos.
Initial pressings of "Metalogy" will also include a bonus DVD of a Dec. 12, 1982, concert in Memphis during the band's Screaming for Vengeance tour. Previously released on VHS as "Judas Priest Live," the concert film has been out of print for some time, and is here reissued in 5.1 surround sound.
As previously reported, estranged lead singer Rob Halford rejoined Judas Priest last year after more than 12 years away from the band. Guitarist K.K. Downing and bassist Ian Hill are the only remaining original members in the current lineup, which is rounded out by longtime lead guitarist Glenn Tipton and drummer Scott Travis, who joined in 1989.
A new studio album is expected sometime this year, as is a tour in celebration of Judas Priest's 30th anniversary. The band is confirmed to play several European festivals in June, according to the official Judas Priest Web site.
