THE FAITHKEEPERS
Iconic. That is the best word to describe the musical legacy Judas Priest has
created.
Since debuting with 1974’s Rocka Rolla, which was released on Motown’s
Gull Records subsidiary, this British band has established itself as a heavy
metal standard-bearer alongside the likes of Black Sabbath and Iron Maiden.
Fronted by vocal powerhouse Rob Halford, the quintet has proudly carried the
metal mantle while accruing an impressive canon of seminal albums including
Unleashed in the East, Hell Bent for Leather and Screaming for Vengeance.
Now they’re back in town promoting their latest effort, Firepower. Opening the
show is Uriah Heep.
The Paramount, 370 New York Ave., Huntington, paramountny.com $69.50-
$249.50. 8 p.m. May 14, 15.
