Judas Priest recently released their new album, Invincible Shield, and according to OfficialCharts.com, the band are on track to land their highest-ever chart position in the UK.
Says OfficialCharts.com: "Eyeing a Number 2 debut this week are Judas Priest, with their 19th studio collection Invincible Shield. The Birmingham-born heavy metal outfit, comprising Ian Hill, Rob Halford, Glenn Tipton, Scott Travis and Richie Faulkner, could earn a career-best with the LP, having previously claimed a Number 4 peak with 1980 album British Steel."
Over the past 50 years Judas Priest have sold over 50 million albums worldwide and headlined the world’s biggest stages. With their evolving music and live performances also came a powerful unique identity, a look which has both defined the group and influenced future generations of metal bands the world over. With each year, the Judas Priest legend continues to grow; 2022 saw them inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and complete a sold-out rescheduled world tour in support of their 50th Anniversary. As we roll into 2024, Judas Priest continue to retain their crown as one of the biggest and best British bands in the world.
