As Judas Priest gets ready to kick off the North American leg of their Invincible Shield tour, Rob Halford says he's been left speechless by the worship the Metal Gods have been greeted with this year.
"The European leg we did, they were going nuts in Europe for Priest, for Invincible Shield," Halford tells Classic Rock from his home in Arizona. "It's worldwide, isn't it, this renaissance of heavy metal, culturally – to the point where Gojira are at the Olympic Games. Everybody's exploring everything metal. There's this great vibe out there that everybody wants to check out all these different bands."
