This is an excellent way to kick off the week, Judas Priest have released the title track from their summer release, Redeemer Of Souls. It certainly sounds like classic Priest, and a track that fans would immediately recognize as something in the band's catalog. This is the first recording from the band since longtime guitarist KK Downing left and Richie Faulkner joined up with the band. Enough talk, let's get to the music:

My immediate opinion is one of indifference. The tempo of the song could be a bit faster and overall the band is not reinventing the wheel, but it certainly is not bad.
Judas Priest's Redeemer of Souls is out July 15 in North America, and either a few days before or after in different parts of the country. What do you think of the new track?
