METAL GODS, THE RAGE, GRINDER, LIVING AFTER MIDNIGHT
PLUS PROMO VIDEOS AND EXTENDED INTERVIEWS FOR DVD
by Paul Autry
Even the most casual fan of Judas Priest doesn't need a history lesson
when it comes to all this band has accomplished during the course of
their lengthy career. Although that's what you get on this recently
released DVD. It's not a full blown, everything you need to know history
lesson. The main focus here, of course, is their 1980 classic "British
Steel," an album that still holds up, rather well I might add, to this
day. This release takes you into the heart and soul of Judas Priest
and into the frame of mind they were in when they were creating this
metal masterpiece. Up close and personal interviews with the men behind
the music as well as some classic footage of the band in action. Watching
this release shows you that there's more to music than simply putting
a product out. An album, or even a song, is more than just entertainment
for the masses or a creation from the people who created it. It's a
permanent record, an audio photograph of who Judas Priest was at this
specific moment in time. For the metal fan, "British Steel" gave us
some classic tunes such as "Breaking The Law" and "Living After Midnight,"
songs that are still in heavy rotation on the radio and performed by
almost every local band that does covers. You might appreciate learning
how these songs came into being. No stone is left unturned and once
you run through the entire contents of this release, you'll know everything
there is to know about "British Steel." Plus, you'll get to see some
exciting footage of the band as well. It's not their complete history,
but, it's a perfect glimpse into a single moment of that history. A
moment that, twenty two years later, still stands the test of time.
